THE GEORGIA MINSTRELS A GREAT SHOW From Friday's Da!!?. The presentation last, evening at the Parniele theater of tin famous Georgia minstrels of Richards & Pringle was one that greatly pleased the large audience that tilled the theater, ami the excellent company served amusement most pleasantly to pass two hours' time in the dif ferent parts assigned to them. Earl Terry and William Nash, the end men, were the chief fun provokers of the evening, al though Doc Ford and Robert Hampton assisted ably in the driving of dull care away by their jokes and songs. The company has an excellent singing chorus ami one that furnishes a sweet and pleasing tone, while the solo ists wilh the company were all tirst-class and the selections given, most of which were of the swaying rag-lime variety, were warmly applauded by the delight - en amiiiors. i no company carries an excellent orchestra. which adds greatly lo the pleas ure of the offering of the show. Following' the feast of music of the first part several pleasing single and double acts were put on by different members of the company. The Drews, who ap pear in a magician act, were very good and the different articles produced by Mr. Drew from hats, baskets and cones were truly be wil.lering to the eye. William Nash appears in a monologue role, in addition to his fun-provoking stunts in the first part of the show, and his part was one that pleased .everyone, as he is one of the best comedians that has been here this season, and well deserves his title some comedian. Another very pleasing feature was the musical act of Mr. Terry and Miss Henderson, introducing a number of popular songs, which were received wilh the warmest approval by every one present. Tlie Alabama quar tet was also a great hit i'n the program and the sweet voices of the singers charmed the audi once to such an extent that they were encored several times. The minstrel closed wilh a rip-roar ing act introducing singing and dancing. DISAPPEARANCE OF MIL JOHNSON IS STILL A DEEP MYSTERY There is still a deep mystery surrounding , the disappearance of John Johnson from this city, and his- friends here have almost given up all hopes of finding him alive, as there has boon no word of his whereabouts given to them or the authorities, who have been trying to locate him, and the general 'opinion is that in a despondent mood, the young man made away with himself by drowning in the river. A re ward of 25 for any information as to his whereabouts has been offered, and the sheriff lias sent out postcards, with -a. description of the young man lo different localities where it might be pos sible fie could have gone or where his body might have been secured from the river. Mr. Johnson was about live .feet, nine inches in height, weighing 210 pounds; was smooth shaven and dark haired, and when last seen was dressed in a dark suit with small gray stripe and wore a pay or Florsheim shoes, which had recently been half-soled, and he also carried an open-face gold walch with Elgin movement. The reward will be given for any in formation as to his whereabouts wired lo Sheriff Quinton in this eily. CASTOR I A For Infants and Children. The Kind You Have Always Bought WV?. ,VVW.W!
