Minstrel Show Planned by Sheboygan Business Men's Aso
The Sheboygan Business Men's Association voted to stage a minstrel show with Pfister and E Broughton authorized to hire talent and prepare the Opera House. They aim to attract top local talent, drill Charles R Johnson for the cast, and stage two performances to showcase elaborate scenery. A visit from Panama veteran Otto Kohl sparked remarks on the canal and American loyalty. The Edgren Manufacturing Company seeks a $15,000 loan to locate in Sheboygan, offering solid security and no stock bonus. Pfister was named to contact the Mount Pleasant firm.
