THE HYERS SISTERS
This company in billed for an enter
tainment in Worthinston on Wednes-
day evening next, Sept. 3. The Sioux
City Journal says of their recent per-
Torrance IN that city;
last night was entirely too hot for
many people to venture out to any en-
tertaimment, and the Academy was
only filled by the crowd who came to
see the Flyers Sisters Comedy company.
The company appeared in Sioux City
seven or eight months ago, and the
good reputation then made was fully
sustained last night There have been
some changes in the members of the
troupe, but none for the worse. The
play is the "Blackyille Twins,'' in
which there are numerous ludicrons
situations. The Flyers sisters; Elose
and Gertie, both pleased the audience
by their excellent acting, natural man
ners and fine singing. Much of the
attention of the audience was absorbed
in the ri-splitting appearance, dialogue
and adventures OF Leon Gilbert as
Marmaduke Lemon. and Billy Cook as
Scrub Ashley, the lovers Of the twins.
Their get-up was suggestive and some
of their salles of wit brought down the
house. One of the pleasantest features
Of the entertainment was the music,
which was good throughout. There is
something in the plantation melodies
that never grows old. and that some
thing was brought out in the singing
of the troupe in solo. duet, quartette,
and chorus. But the music was not
confined to Jubilee Songs, there being
much of a higher order, and that, too.
given in fine taste and acceptably. The
audience gave every evidence Of pleas
IRE in the performance. and it is not
saying too much to say that the Flyers
Sisters company has no anpepiov in its
specialties now before the Fublir.

THE BRICK QUESTION SETTLED
At length the brick question is set
tied for Worthington. Good brick clay
in exhaustless quantities has been
found and kiln of as good brick us
can he made in the State is now sue
cessfully burned and ready for sale.
On Saturday last we made another
visit to the brickyard Of \. Simpson
and found him and his men taking ont
beautiful red brick from kiln of 49,
600 to sc, 900 recently burned. We have
no hesitation in pronouncing them
better than any Mankato brick 50 fair
used in Warrington, that is they are
harder and less porous. Samples may
be seen at this office by the side of sam.
pies from the same lot used in the
ADVANCE block, and parties can judge
for themselves.
Mr.. Simpson expects next year to
begin the manufacture of tile also and
if he succeeds as well in this as he has
with the brick, a very important indus
try will be established in our midst.
