AT, THE SALT LAKE THEATER. ?'A full house greeted Al G. Field's minstrels at the Salt Lake Theater last night, and everybody went away sound, ing the praises of the entertainment given by tlte big Elk's troubadours. Field htuTfeelf. after several months' re-tiremer.t re-tiremer.t on account of Illness, appeared in rWrson, hale, hearty and full of his rt ml table negro drolleries. Old-time ratnstrelsy Is what he endeavors to give his patrons, and his efforts are crowned with success. 'V . Th "first part" is given with a series f magnificent stage settings representing represent-ing a roof garden scene in New York, "'Uh panoramic views of the skyscrapers, skyscrap-ers, Brooklyn bridge, Madison Square Garden and the statue of Liberty, cloe - Ing with a storm scene, In which light-nlng light-nlng plays around the skies over the . ' harbor, during which Mr. Dickens and the chorus sing a Verdi selection, "Crowned With the Tempest." Then the scene is changed to "Peaceful Val-iy," Val-iy," a village church, Inside which tha i-hoir sings the intermezro from "Caval-terta "Caval-terta Rustlcana," Incidental to the first part several old-time favorites and not a few new faces appeared. The comedy of Tommy Donnelly and Harry Shunk was of the genial kind, not too prolonged and altogether alto-gether new. The special features of the tinging were Reese Prosser's rendition of "Where the Silvery Colorado Winds Its Way," James Cavanaugb in a yod- - ling lullaby, and J. E. Blampkln In "Ex. celsior." Interesting specialties were the D'Arvllles, bellrlngers; a comedy negro rketch; the musical Magnanl family; Al Field's monologue: the Clipper quartette quar-tette and the famous Faust family of acrobats. The latter made a most pronounced pro-nounced hit, performing some wonderful wonder-ful feats of agility. That the Field minstrels are "the greatest ever" was admitted by old theater-goers. The last performance will be given tonight, and prospects are for a packed house. HSDT POUNDS I Eight pounds of love and laughter, of smiles and sunshine or ?
