The Mosier Peerless Minstrel
Co. played to a large audience
last Saturday night. Many in
the country were kept at home
fey the inclement weathe»*.
The jokes, monologues, songs
and other stunts pulled -off by
this aggregation of home talent
black-face fun-makers kept the
house giggling most o f the time
and the jabs -at some of our
local celebrities contained much
pointed humor, which was ap
parently as much enjoyed by the
victims o f the wit as by the au
dience.
Messrs. Mayer, Mc-
Cargar, McGregor,
Macrum,
Weller, Howe, and the rest of
the Scotchmen “ got theirs” dur
in g the evening.
The program was as good as
it was long and reflected much
«credit on the ability o f the en
tertainers. We are shy on space
in which to throw verbal bouquets
to the entire troupe, (some of
them received a few beautiful
ones o f the “ garden” variety at
the time) but we will note in
«passing Ihnt H. M. YT'st was all
to the good as a Scotchman from
Ethiopia, and his performance
was generally considered tile hi!
o f Lhe evening.
The net proceeds of the enter
tainment, amounting to about
$60, will be used to defray the
oost of lighting the Baptist
