Mention The Outlook adv. . MINSTRELS MAKE A HIT t m m 1 wi HE Annual Min s t r e 1 Show of the Village em ployees in aid of the Firemen's fund, Tuesday evening, drew together an audience w h i c h taxed the capacity of the Village Hall. From first to last there was not a dull moment, a varied program of song and choruses, two specialties, and a farce rounding out a merry evening. Local people and conditions also received their share of attention and if anything was overlooked in was mistake, not intention. The program opened with an overture by The Holly Inn Orchestra, which was in attendance during the evening, and the chorus "Carry Me Back to Old Vir ginia"", sung by the company behind the curtain which rose at the close, revealing the usual black face circle. Mr. Ernest Quimby, the interlocutor, was seated in the center Hanked on either side by the chorus in sombre evening dress, relieved by crimson breast bands, with the gaudy bones and tambos Mr. Charles Baxter, Mr. E. R. Ellis, Mr. James Gorman, Mr. W. J. McNabb, Mr. Frank Ellis and Mr. W. P. Murphy in the foreground re splendent in gaudy attire. "Love me and the World is Mine", by Mr. II. A. Wright, was the first number, Mr. Baxter following with "Abraham Jefferson Washington Lee", Mr. W. E. Honey then sang "Where Southern Roses Grow", Mr. E. R. Ellis following with "I'm a Jonah Man", "Much Obliged to You" by Mr. Gorman was next, the solos closing with "The sound of a Chicken Frying in the Pan", by Mr. Frank Ellis. The next number was a novelty, a 'Santa Claus" song by Mr. E. R. Ellis with a chorus accompaniment by the 'Georgia Silver band" an aggregation of stars which would make the tvmcal 'German band" green with envy. "A Little Blase Harmony" by the Far ey Bros , Owen J. and John J., mando in and guitar, filled in the wait between the first and second parts, a song, "In the Evening by the Moonlight", being endered in connection. The program ended with a one-act farce, "Hart's Pudding", in which the offer of a reward for the discovery of the plot was a safe twenty to one shot. The cast included a New Yorker suffering: from "millionairitis," his valet a "good thing" a "slick "un" and a Bell Boy, with the scene laid at the "Ilaulem Inn" and the time, the present ; Mr. E. R. Ellis, Mr. McNabb, Mr. Baxter, Mr. T. II. Taylor, Jr., and Mr. Canby Steele, filling out the east. Thus early has come a demand for a epetition of the performance for the benefit of the Baseball fund, with the possibility of the request being granted next Thursday evening. Rev. JDr. Mill Officiate. Rev. Dr. John M. Mills of Evanston, 111., officiated at Sunday's religious ser vices, delivering a sermon of special and timely interest. CAKISnBlRY. Second of Mian lney'i Lectures In. joyed Ij Attentive Audience. Miss Olney's second library talk on Canterbury was thoroughly enjoyed by the attentive audience who last Tuesday morning filled the pretty room almost to overflowing. Sixty or seventy fine pho tographs contributed, their share of pleasure. In this talk, as well as in the previous one on Winchester, the history of the ancient city and cathedral proved fas cinating in the extreme, and many choice bits were told which the average seeker after knowledge would fail to find. Perhaps a better thing certainly it is easier than to be an original explorer is to profit by the thorough study of such a careful observer as Miss Olney was during her winter in England. The fact that many of the audience had visited the fine old cathedral city seemed to add to their pleasure in listen ing, and several expressed the wish to go again that very day while the pictures were fresh in their minds. The third talk in the series comes Tuesday morning next, the subject being Queen Elizabeth. ip 9111. Til AVIS' FAST CA11IIS. lloundu Out Ilecord Tlilrty.Nix Hole Total In IMav. Walter J.
