night, by the Loveless Concert
Party, composed of two pairs of
twins—exponents of real har-
mony.
On each of the following
three days there will be two
numbers, afternoon and evening
and Miss Griseld Anton, the lo-
cal manager, assures the public
that each number will be of
such a character that you will
feel that your time has been
very profitably spent
On Saturday afternoon there
will be a prelude to the regular
number, by Kringsberg & Co.—
stunts extraordinary, followed
by an address, “A Pod of P’s”
bv Or. Harry S. Scott. That
evening Kringsberg, the Mystic
will entertain with a program,
“Spiritualism Exposed.”
On the third day, the Harda--
way Players will be here both
afternoon and evening, with
“Skits and Sketches” for the af-
ternoon and Gorilla for the ev-
tiiing. This last number is the
feature entertainment of the
course.

Hmper Co., will be the mu-
sical entertainers, both after-
noon and night, and Hon J. N.

who has Made Good in Politics”
will lecture at each performance
’lickets are on sale at Han-
kins Drug Co., adults $2.50, and

NOTICE TO SUBSCRIBERS.
Some two or three weeks ago
w-c announced that we had mail-
ed notices to all subscribers
whose subscriptions were due
er in arrears. We have just
finished checking up and bring-
ing our list up to date. Every
name has a number following ii,
which indicates the date to
which that subscriber is paid.
vV e try to exercise the greatest
care in handling our subscrip-
tion list, but occasionally we are
sure to make mistakes. When
v'e do, we are only too glad to
correct any date that is in error
w hen called to our attention.
While the responses to the
notices sent out have been very
gratifying, there are a few
whose time has expired, who
have not as yet paid for the pa-
per in advance. Several of
these have spoken to us and ar-
rangements have been made
whereby their time for payment
t-s extended until a later date,
H(‘n it will be more convenient
h>r them to pay. If your time
has expired, and it is not con-
venient to pay just now. we
shnH he glad to accommodate*
you as w
< ioned.

March. The first full moon af-
