The company recently appears ed at Springfield, Ohio, and the News of the following dty, Feb. l-l, said: It is difficult to convince the show-go ing public that a minstrel company pre sented a programme of nctual novelties, and brilliant and hih standard novelties at that. But the big audience wbich pacl;ed Black' opera house to the very wall laBt night and gave a generous and flowing reception to Goodyear, Elitch & Schillings minstrels will tell you that the programme was brilliant in special-, ties and that the performance was the most novel and attractive seen in Spring field this season. There wasn't a chest nut nor a pause in the entertainment. It was brimful of "go," and carried the au dience along with it. Tomorrow night at the Bur tis suss ime l'uinam win ap pear in her Lew play. "Love Finds a Way." The play is a very bright little comedy drama with much laughter pro voking lightness and with very much of pathos in it. Through it all Katie Put nam is the central attraction, with her petite, graceful figure and clever imper sonation of an impetuous, young woman in love. She has a voice of no great compass, but one that is very sweet, and her several songs, especially that of "Love Finds a Way." are enthusiastically re ceived. Thursday evening at the Burtis at Dav enpwrt Denman Thompson and George W.Ryei's new play, "The Two Sisters,' will be presented. It is a simple story simply told that is all and while there is not a single situation in it that might Ve called a startling climax, or a scene that eveneuggists strong emotional acting, there U a tender pathos abi ut the whole structure of the play proper that pene trates the very soul. There are charac ters introduced who have little to do with the action of the dranii; they serve to prolong a story that is too brief to be told in four acts without introducing a tire some lot of sentimental stuff that would shadow what is really good, and thus lose to the public what is one of the most in tensely interesting plots that has yet been put on the stage from an all-American standpoint. Almost every type of a heter ogeneous city life is portrayed with a naturalness so striking that it pleases be cause it is so commonplace. Thursday Xtght'ti Lrrtnre. In fact, the lecture was a fitting close to a course that has proven more genu inely interesting than any ever delivered in the city, lie has given the people an insight into "The n -efiil science of the world to kno.

It is to be hoped that at some future time Mr. Ragan may be persuaded to re turn to Peoria and give us another course of lectures which of a certainty cannot fail to please. Peoria Herald, May 3.
