Sometimes this person is headed nor’ by nor’ east; at other times he is headed sou’ by sou’ west; at still others he is sailing due north, and at times he is hauling on his main sheet and making heavy weather in- to the west.

He studied four years in private work in Pitts- burgh; had a year under Ellison Van Hoose of the Metropolitan Grand Opera Company; and another year under Alfred Hallem, of New York, one of the country’s greatest choral leaders. Brother Barr will do a bit of singing himself, before the minstrel show is over. “Lord Baltimore Barr,” as Mayor Charley is popularly known, has been working like a slave for the past six weeks on this minstrel show and says he will be 100 per cent. better than the show of last century Flyingyear.
