She Saw Snakes.
Viney Mitchell, colored, concluded
the other day that a mess of cabbage
would fill a long felt want; so she
comes down town and bought a rous
ing big head from Mr. . Re
turning home she proceeded to cut it
in half, designing with prudent fore
thought to save one half for the mor
row. Judge of the extent to which
her eyes protruded, when, upon cut
ting up one half, preparatory to cook
ing it, a snake, which had been con
cealed in the folds of the leaves, dart
ed out. Viney’s acrobatic feats, on,
the occasion, would have secured her
an engagement with Robinson’s circus.
The story is only half told; next day
she found another snake concealed in
the other half of the cabbage. On
this last occasion her yell of horror,
as the snake darted out, shopk the
shingles on the shanty.
Viney now says her “stumick
kinder turns ngin’ cabbage.”

There is, on the Times Enterprise

spangled performers make the grand
entry, and watch the elephant go
around, to the tune of “Johnny get
your hair oil;” nor has he ever im
bibed red lemonade with a block of
clear glass in it to keep it cool; by
tho same tokon he has nevci twisted
a monkey’s taB, and, then, when the
got after
around corns countryman and said;
'Mr., there’s the fellow who twisted
your blamed monkey’s tail,” pointing
to the astonished countryman; nor
has he ever seen the fat woman or tho
hairy man, or followed a band wagon
and procession.

At tho Opera House,
On Monday night, M ; ss Cora Van
Tassel, the charming Southern sou-
fcrette, supported by a first-class com
pany, will play “The Little Sinner”
at the opera house. The scenes and
incidents of this new play arc laid in
North Carolina. There is nothing
unnatural or strained in tho plot; it
holds the mirror up to nature, and
claims the close attention of every
audience. Pathos and humor are
happily blended. The pres3 every
where speaks in most flattering terms
of the young actress. We subjoin
the following brief extracts:
Miss Cora Van Tassel is bright and
pretty, and acts with grace and
vivacity.—Chicago Inter-Ocean.
Miss Van Tassel is a fine actress
excellent reader, and tl
ig in years, she evinces ex]
dinary talent;—Buffalo, N. Y. Cou
rier.
Cota Van Tassel is a bright tot of
a woman, with a happy and versatile
vein. She can act the average sou-
brette out of sight, and dance all
around Lotta.—St. Louis Chronicle,
Sept. 23, 1889.
Cora Van Tassel has pushed her
way to the front rank ofsoubrettes by
sheer push and industry. Add to
these qualities the patent fact that
she is as pretty ns a picture, and
almost any slow fellow can explain
the growing reputation and success of
the rollicking little woman who pack
ed the Academy of Music last night,
and kept it happy and jolly for three
hours oh a stretch.—New Orleans,
La., Picayune.
