Neil O’Brien’s ramistrels, best
of the burnt cork ojganizations,
played its annual engagement at
the Colonial theatre last night an-
the same enthusiastic welcome
that has been given the troup
past years was repeated last
night.
Taken in its entirety, O’Brien’
show is one of the most entertain
ing that has ever been seen
the southern stage—this state
ment being limited, of course, to
the minstrel shows. With funny
end men, good soloists, quartettes,
acting scenery and settings, it
all that it pretends to be and .,
is certain that no one left the Co
lonial theatre last night who was
not pleased with the offering.
The first part was a thing
beauty, the most elaborate one
that has yet been provided. On the
ends were Jay Clay, Jack (Smoke)
Gray, Frank (Cracker) Quinn,
Fred Miller, Stephen Ondek and
Jack Oimrholt, while Allan Karle
was in the middle to interrogate
the funny men. ' Among the vq-

Art Fletcher. Phillies, and Bill
McKechnic, Pittsburg, of tho Na
tional loop, and Frank Chance,
Boston, and Owen Bush, Wash
ington, of the Ajnerican, are the
quartet refsrred to.
Of the other dozen, Connie
Mack is the pioneer, having led
the Athletics on 22 previous cam
paigns, or ever since Philadelphia
came into the Johnsonian circuit
back in 1901. McGraw of the
Giants is right behind with 20
seasons to his credit, while the
rest have been piloting their re
spective clubs at least two cam
paigns.
. And of the 16, five have acted
in a similar capacity for other
major league outfits, with Hug
gins of the Yankees, Chance of
Boston, and Rickey, Cardinals,
having led teams in both circuits
during their careers.
Most of the present-day pifots
have long since laid aside their
playing uniforms, being content
to give their orders from the
bench. In fact, Cobb, Speaker and
rvn;««s I i 5tc “ er » are the only regular
_ Collins player-managers, though Bush
may decide to get into some of
his team’s games this season.
One odd feature in regard to the
men who guide the destinies of
the major league clubs concerns
Connie Mack. In all the years that
the elongated manager has piloted
the .Athletics he has never appear
ed on the bench in a uniform.
Mack comes to the ball yard in
his regular citizen’s regalia, and
reposes in the dugout in the same
outfit.

will be a night of thrills and chills
and bubbling merriment for those
who see this unusual aud most at

the play shows no sign of diminish
