FIRST NIGHT IS POPULAR (Continued from Page One.)- new faces, introduced new songs and relegated all old timers to the back ground. . The audience was on the qui vive, for the program carried solo ists who not only were blossoming out behind the calcium for the first time, but the parts were attacked with a vim and vigor that kept the audience In the best of humor, and "hands" were frequently prolonged and more or less excited. Men of affairs and professions In La Grande were lifted to the gridiron of public notice and perforated with shafts and arrows of wit and he who was struck got it swiftly. Slight Variation Tonight -The repetition of the production to night will be characterized by Blight changes introduced n addition to those heard last night, Norman Desilet in "The Railroad Rag," G. M. Rlchey In "When I Woke Up This Morning," and H. A. Zurbrick in "Baby Rose." New "gags" are also promised for to night. ' In the opinion of many critics, the minstrel Is head and shoulders above the Elks' production of four years ago. There is a sparkle of "class" and snap and ginger and catchy songs With a correct amount of fun-making ingredients. - The first part is devoted to the song hits and M. B. Donohue as interlocu- I tor, officiates with a dignity and pre i cision that keeps the fan-machinery ! grinding continually. Tho soloists, Frank C. Br'amwell, George L, Bernle . and C. P. Ferrln, were indeed splen did, handling songs of a more sober ! tone and thought than the frivolous ! numbers of the endmen.

Part one was rung, down with excited applause and the skits and vaudeville features of the second part were likewise far above the usual attempts in thiB line. Introducing pop ular local actors the first skit made a' decided hit and the scenes shifted to Draper and Miller, who, with clean cut comedy, prepared the audience for the last of the evening old planta tion rags, an this particular phase ot the evening's mirth, Nate Ardrey, witii difficult banjo selections and boon classics, Ed Donohue, Merlin Batley, George Abegg and Clint Draper kept the "hands" coming from the house In front. Little need of an eulogy over the production in these columns prevails The hundreds who heard It laBt night are walking advertisements today and as there will be enough new features tonight, to warrant .lt, there will no doubt be many who will go again. It is worth the money, sure 'enough. While the new numbers will toe add ed tonight," two of the numbers -which made the biggest, hits last night in the; end-song, department will be re peated tonight. Charles Harding and Iddlngs will do their turns once more this evening for if any two got the biggest recall it was these two. That Messrs.
