We ought before TO have called at
tention to the advertisement of John
@. Stapleton, in another column. He
has made arrangements for doing a
general business in all kinds of logiti-
mate insurance, and we bespcak for
him a fair share of business. He is a
pleasant and reliable young man to
deal with. and has had plenty of expe-
rience to qualify him as an insurance
agent.
Tho concert by the Comical Brown
troupe, Thursday evening, was very
enjoyable, and deserving of q much
better house than was given them.
Miss Alice DeVere i'm her violin and
harmonica solos was twice encored.
Mr.. Marble sang ga jolly good laugh
with good effect, and the Duet by the
Misses DeVeres and chorus by the
company was excellent. "Comical" as

presentations were excellent, keeping
the audience in continual roar. lie
is supported by q good company and
gives first-class entertainment in cv-
cry respect.
