Popular Show Coming.

“One swallow does not make a summer,” neither does one comedian make a minstrel show. Managers of the old school used to contend that one real actor and fifteen or sixteen “sticks” and a band of ten pieces (it was often eight) was sufficient for a minstrel show, and that the public would accept them. History proves the truth of their contention, for the public did accept such organizations# whether or not the public were satisfied is a question open to argument. But there have been vast changes in the last few years. The day of the one-man show is over. The public demand a company of uniform excellence. Mistakes are io the wise man but stepping stones to success. The management of Richards & Pringle’s Famous Georgia Minstrels were the first to realize that if minstrelsy was to thrive and flourish radical and impor-’ tant changes were necessary. Such changes called for the outlay of a considerable fortune, but time and results have testified to the truth of their conviction. This company stands today the acknowledged leaders in this branch of the amusement business, and no well-informed student of the stage will challenge this statement. They travel in their own palace cars and number 40 people. Twelve comedians of real reputation vie with each other in the fun making. There are 20 trained singers, a double sextette of nimble dancers, seven big vaudeville acts and a band of 25 pieces, that is the best ever. The date of this company’s appearance at Ellis theatre is Tuesday, August 3rd. We roast the best Mocha and Java coffee. Old Mandhelling Java and Arabian . Mocha blended with the -best old Santos Maricoba and Bourbon coffees at C. C. Starr & Co.’s.

Potato growers in the eastern part of the state are having time and trouble taken off their hands by a small insect which bites the “tater” bug just under the wing. This little varment is headed west and it is not likely he will reach old Jasper until next spring, in the meantime we must do something to rid the potato vine of this troublesome pest—let us s (pray).
