Thursday, Nov. 18th.
Council decided not to allow the band
to practise in one of the opera house
rooms. Very we'll, they know what they
are about, and always do things to suit
themselves. But by this refusal the band
will not break up. Mr.. II. NJ. North gave
them permission to practise in the second
story room of the old Spy building, in
Bank alley. His kindness is appreciated
ever their services be needed, all he will
have to do is to give them a call.

4 great deal of indignation is felt by
some of our citizens, who were charged
extra for reserved seats in the gallery for
the g Mascottc. The G.. A. X. Post ad-
that there would be no extra
charge for reserved seats. The gallery
was thirty-fige cents, yet when our citi-
Zens asked for seats in that part of the
opera house, there being no desirable seats
down stairs, they had to pay fifteen cents
extra. The sum is not much, to be sure,
but when they advertise thing they
should stick to it.
