According to the weather prophets, when it does set in cold we will have it good fashion.

The Concert.


 The Excelsior club concert drew a good audience last Friday night, and those who conposed 1t were very well pleased with the entertainment. The musical feature was good and the par ticipants acquitted themselves in | very credi.abIe mannsr. Tho recitations of Miss Lizzie Gerhardt and Mir. Lawrence Russell were excellent and deserving of special mention. The drama "The Old Maid" was splendidly performed. Miss Rose Patterson as "Tabitha Flint" made decided hit and proved herself a genuine actress. Mir. Robert Chas- teen made good "Dr. Thortopgrove," !" and Mir. W. B. McDonaId's "Deacon White, carried the house by storm. Miss Gerhardt as "Jennie Lee" and Miss Bayliss as .Annie Steel" were adeauatc to the requirement. of their roles and at once were accepted as fa- yorites.
 The closing drama. "Dying for Love-" did not run so smoothly as the first owing to lack of practice, but the in- nate ability of the caste was displayed to great advantaTe. MT. J. W. Robin son a. "Dr. ManRle" and Miss Haney as "Mrs. Manxle,' his wife, were very good and made the most of several very excellent situations. Mir. Weimcr as sHarry Thornton" the lover, was ex- cellent, as was also, Mir. Jourdan as ssCapt. Fickleton.' Miss Noselev as "Mrs. Lorimer' and Miss Dogget as "Jennie,n performed we'll their parts.
 All in all, the entertainment was an emphatic success from the first act to the last, as well as in financial point of view, and the many friends of the Club would hasten the day for their next entertainment.
 The next will be given Dec. IS. at which time the celebrated and terribly realistic drama "Ten Nights i'll Bar Room." will be presented.

 A touching love story comes to us this week from neighborhood but three miles from Harrison. It seems that in the early days Of the late re- bellion a young girl became engaged to soldier in the confederate serv- ice, who was soon after called away and at the close of the war went to Texas. She consistently ignored the advance of all other suitors end patiently awaited his return, being confident that he would be true to her. So the years have passed away and gray hairs have taken the place of her brown tresses; as an old maid she has long since ceased to attract attention. But within the last two weeks her fidelity has been reward ed. The lover of her youth has re turned for visit. He is the owner of an extensive cattle ranch and has brought with him his wife and six children.
