Remarkable Washington Home Talent Christmas Minstrel

Washington's second annual home talent Christmas minstrel drew an unusually large audience at the opera house last night. Local artists offered a varied program from chorus and solo acts to tambourine and comedy numbers, with strong performances by Lester Baird, Nick and Knock, Captain Kellogg, and the Xpress quartets. Proceeds from the benefit will aid the lodging room cause.
