Harmount’s Uncle Tom’s Cabin Coming to Rensselaer Soon.
After the minnow comes the whale of them all. Harmount’s Big Uncle Tom’s Cabin Show has billed Rensselaer and will show here under a mammoth water-proof tent on Monday evening, June 30th. The Harmount Co. eomee recoin mended as the largest and best Unde Tom's Cabin show on the road, carrying a company of 35 people, a concert braes band; ten great bloodhounds, consisting of six Siberian and four American Red Bone bloodhounds, among which are the famous dogs, Ben and Baker. This is, without a doubt the finest lot of dogs ever seen with any traveling organization. The Harmount Co. does not earry a big, fareial street parade to mislead the people, but have saved that extra expense and secured good pedple and elegant scenery, so as to give the public a first-class production of that old Southern drama, Lifelike scenes of the Skinner Tavern; the ieegorged Ohio river by moonlight; the home of Phineas Fletcher, the good old Quaker; the wild, rocky pass in Southern Ohio; Mr. St. Clair’s home showing the tropical garden with its fragrant magnolia and orange trees, among which nestles the typical plantation homes; the Orleans levee; the slave market; the moss-circled road near Legree’s plantation on Red river, with the cotton in full bloom. Remember, they have comfortable seats for 3,500 people. Free band concert in the evening on the main street by our concert band. Priees, 15 and 25 cents. You have sewn the rest, now see the best > Show grounds, Hoover lots on North Cullen street two blocks
