We allude with pride and pleasure to the excellence that has always characterized our entertalnmeuts and upon which the elite of America have placed the stamp of their approval by their generous and frequent patronage. Ttie President and Mrs. Cleveland have honored our entertainments by their presence on three.different occasions, as also have the leading members of the clergy, press and bar. We take tliis occasion to say our present company is the Urgent and best we have ever had and we pledge our word as managers and men that nothinj; shall be sald or done, during our entertainment, that will offend the most refined. Yours In mirth and honesty, TlIATCHER, PlU.MROSE & WEST. Some of the entertainments that travel through the country make a grave mistake in the posters and hangers that they display advertising their show. A bawdy or loud picture usually denotes a bawdy or loud show. An instance in polnt is tlie Aunt Bridget Company. There was nothing in their entertainment in the least out of the way. It was pure rollickIng fun, and the company appeared unusually briliiant and refined upon the stage. But their advertising matter denoted the reverse, if anything, consequently ladies did not dare to attend. Tliatcher, Primrose & Westclaim for their minstrelsy to-ni;ht pure, unadulterated fun, (ree from smut and indecency, but their advertising is of the usual loud type. The time ought to come In the theatrical and traveling entertainment line when the bawdy and Indecent should be frozen out by non -patrón age, and it looks very much as if the sentiment of nearly every communitv had turned that way.
