Dcmocrate says of Rentz Stantley
Novelty Company:
The Rentz-Stantly Novelty
Company were greeted by a large
attendance'' at the Grand Opera
House last evening. There were
eleven ladies six brunettes and
five blondes -and their .first
appearance in the :-minstrel ring
was a dazzling sight, for they
were not only good-looking but
attired. in long trailing dresses of
yellow, blue, green and other
gaudy tinted silk. Contrasted
with the burnt cork artists, Lew
Benedict 'and Charles Wilson,
who were the end men, their ap
pearance was a novel one. The
minstrel business was well done;
the jokes (racked bv the"niggahsv
were laughable and brought down
the house. This was especially
true of LeAv Benedict's atrocious
collection' of puns and his stump
speech. t i This Courtuey-IIanlan
race cathdf in' fat a, full share' hi
the mirtlj. Thet great, hit of the
fevening was "Pinafore" as bur
lesqued hy the company, the
parts of fhe gallant sailors being
takcji by; the female?. The Sir
Joseph Weisbeer of Cliarles Wilson-.,
was' a stunning production
and produced roars of. laughter, as
did also the Dick Deadleat of
'James Sanford. The 'singing was
inijy up to the standard and all
the "parts represented were all
sustained. See advertisement."
