Field, is without doubt one of t'ne great est successes of this season. Last sea son "Darkest America" was put on the road as a purely Minstrel entertain ment. and the success with which it mot led the proprietor, Mr. Fields, to lay plans for a more elaborate enter tainment this season. Accordingly he appealed to Mr. Dumont, the well known minstrel manager of Philadel phia. That Mr. Fields did not misplace his confidence the public can plainly see. Mr. Dnmont is something more than a minstrel manager, although he enter ed minstrel ranks as a boy singer thirty three years ago and has tieeji identified with minstrelsy ever since. Mr. Dn mont was with the California Minstrels when that famous organization was at its high tide of popularity and for the last ten or eleven years has been mana ger of the Eleventh Street Theatre in Philadelphia, the only theatre in the country where minstrels hold the boards season in and seasonal. Mr. Dumont's success has not all been achieved in minstrelsy, however, he has distinguish ed himself by writing several success ful comedy skits, the best known are "A Parlor Match" and "The Rain- Makers." "A Parlor Match" was origi nally produced under the title of "A Book Agent" but did not prove a big success until it had l»een restamped Tin der the title "A Parlor Match" for that inimitable team, Fans and Hoey. "The Rain-Makers" has lieen a money-win ner in the hands of Donnelly and Girard- Prices, 25c. 35c and 50c. Tour to California via Pennsylvania Railroad.
