Bachelor a well to do young ranch
man of Cherry Co , and a widely known
and well respected gentleman , and Miss
Caroline Newman , the daughter of Mr.
and Mrs. H. Newman , a mostjovea-
ble and charming young lady , were
united in marriage at eight o'clock
p. m. January 1 , by Bev. W. W. Get-
tys of Brownlee. Many were the
beautiful and useful presents received.
After the ceremony and congratulations

their many friends.
One of the big novelties in Minstrelsy
this season and a leading feature with
Mahara's Minstrels is the appearance
in the first part of eight handsomely
costumed Jady vocalists. This double
quartette of ladies are graduates of the
famous Dunavin Musicall College ,
where all the high-grade colored musi
cians are educated. Jt is an acknow-
ledged 'fact that singing features of this
organization compare favorably with
the finest operatic companies m ex
istence and surpass in excellence of
harmony all so-called Minstrel vocalists.
It has always been the endeavor of Ma-
hara Brothers to excel in singing feat
ures , and these.ladies , aided by twenty
male voices in grand chorus certainly
prove that the management has "struck
the'keynote to success , and also in-
vigorat6s the life of ministrelsy. .
