A dozen or more of ourp people visited
Onida, Tuesday night, to witness the
presentation of the intensely thrilling
twc-act drama, Among the Breakers"
by the Onida Dramatic Co., and all ex-
press themselves as highly entertained.
The evening was lovely, and there must
have been at least $50 persons in the
audience. Excellent piano music was
furnished by Miss Minnie q. Agar and
Mrs. Frank Brigham previous to the
commencement and between the
acts The ladies and gentlemen chosen
to take the different characters, were
evidently selected with better judgment
than is usual in amateur dramatics, rs
the superior manner in which the play
was brought out testlfies. We didn't
have any boquets with us, or would
have smothered the whole company
with them. Henry Edgerton, as I" Da-
vid Murray, the lighthouse keeper
made typical "heavy william" for
which he is well "put up In shape and
talent to act the parts, with the excep-
ton Of the regulation heavy whiskers
which were false. Dr. +. j. Loughlen,
as Larry Divine, assistant made a
natty Irish sailor lad, who made love
to Biddie Beam the Irish girl in
charge OF the domestic arrangement, in
good shape, which part was taken by
Miss Lizzie Wales, who displayed cap
ital HiberniaR talent, though Larry
did make sad wreck Of Blddie's table
furniture in trying to steal kiss. c.
Fl. Agar carried the part of Hon,
Bruce Hunter" n middle-aged gentle
man Of means, in good shape, and c.
w. Holmes, as his ward, captured
the heroine Of the play in manly
manner Joe A. Meloon, as Peter
Paragraph" newspaper reporter, dis
played not only fine theatrical talent,
but is a credit to the literary 'profesh,
and we congratulate him. Frank Brig
ham as "Scud," the colored servant,
carried the negro character in fine shape
and got IN his work just where it would
do the most good. Miss Minnie G.
Agar, as Minnie Daze,' was superior
in the character of the typical girl Of
the way-up-culture and love Of romance.
Miss Elva Giffith, as " Bess Starlight"
a nymph Of the wave, was bright and
vlvacious in her acting throughout, and
was well chosen, indeed, for the part
she took, and received many compl-
ments. Mrs. Frank Brigham, AS
Mother Carey" the fortune teller and
deserted wife, carried that difficult part
to perfection, displayed pronounced
talent for an amateur.

CHRISTMAS WEEK.

This has been quite festal week in
Clifton. The Christmas festivities
commenced on Tuesday, when the
BACHELOR Boys,
to the number of eleven, including the
:" grass widower" of the WATcHAAS,
indulged in grand turkey dinner at
the Odd Fellows building. The feast
was prepared by that prince Of caterers,
Fred Bonsey, assisted by AL. Tobias,
and included several courses, dlshed up
in grand style. The table fairly
"groaned with its burden Of good
things, but the boys groaned louder
after the repast. 1t was followed by
games of various kinds and a general
good time. On Christmas day
Mr.. AND MRS. J. w. CARPENTER
assisted by Miss Minta, royalty enter
tanned several towl friends and neigh
bors at their pleasant home about four
miles northwest of town The table
groaned beneath its weight of "milk
and honey" of the land, and the "grass
widower Of the WATeHMAN has been
groaning ever since, because of his
effort to tighten its burden.
Mr. AND Mrs. A. MCFALL,
assisted by Miss frankie Winter, took
the bachelor boys under their fatherly
and motherly protection, among them
the junior Of the WATcHMAN, and re.
galed them on fatted turkey and all the
luxurles of plenteous Dakota. 1t was
an undertaking from which most who
know them would have hesitated, for it
was the second square meal the boys
have had for months. The crowning
event Of the week was the
CHRISTMAS HOP
at the new school house in Clifton last
night. To sae that it was success
would not do it justice, for it was un-
questionably the finest party ever held
in Sully county, all things considered.
The youth and beauty Of fair Dakota
were there, mixed with those Of matur-
er years bat still young in heart. For
ty -four numbers were sold, and consid-
erably over hundred present. "Well
dance all night til broad daylight, and
go home with the girls in the morning"
seemed to be tacit understanding with
the boys-and that't just what they did.
And the girls appeared to be perfectly
agreeable to the sentiment. Fine mu-
sic was furnished by Messrs. Curt,
Frank and John Bruner-two violins
and organ. An elegant supper OF
roast turkey, oysters and sweet-meats
was served at the Clifton House, OF
which nearly one hundred partook, and
all unite in saying that Mrs. Ross, the
land lady, "did herself proud"

w. p. Ross and wife visited Fort
Sully and their son, over on the river,
the first of the week. They also met
with little adventure coming home.
In crossing the Okobojo below Okobojo
village, the horse broke through the
ice, and Mr.. Ross got in up under his
arms, in getting the ANIMALS out, and
didn't touch bottom either, but got out
all right, and "enjcyed a rather cool
ride the rest of the way home.
--Chas. w. Hanchett left for the
States, Monday, and will spend the
winter at Chicago or Logansport, Ind.
Mr.. Hanchett has been running" the
WArcHNAN for several weeks, and was
fast blossomjng out into a first-class
print" We shouldn't be surprised to
hear, at almost any minute, that he had
bought the Chicago Inter Ocean, Trib-
une, or some other Of the big dailles.
Success to him, for he is good fellow,
anyhow, whatever he does.
The resignation Of Henry F. Pen
dleton, necessitated by protracted
absence to his old home in Pennsylva-

that Wm. j. Johnston will receive the
appointment until the next election, as
he was the unanimous choice of the
people in convention last fall, and also
served IN that position un,ler one of
the new re-districting appointments.
He is representative man and well
qualified for the position, which. under
the circumstances should be rendered
him.
