The story that a daughter of
John Mcmillan, Esq, fell from a
wagon in the street, Tuesday, being
severely hurt, must have been exag-
gerated. We looked the town over
and all the physicians and could
learn nothing definite about the ac-
cident. The young lady is to be
congratulated.
D. Oliver was out with subscrip-
tion paper this week, to see how
much could be secured for the pur-
pose of paying Congregational
minister, the coming year. All
those approached, made liberal

Some wide awake salesman is ad-
vised to supply the demand in this
vicinity for the new 1886 sectional
map Of Dakota. By the courtesy of
the noted map publishers, Rand,
McNally & Co., 49-154 Monroe street,
Chicago, copy adorns The Argus
office, and is greatly enjoyed for the
beauty and reliability of the work.
The many geographical changes
have received the most faithful at
tention. Boundary lines of new
counties, government land open to
settlement and late railroad extern
sions are clearly shown. The great
pecuniary success Of the fortunate
representative is confidently pre-
dicted.
Last evening Rentfrow's Musical
Comedy Company began an engage
menta Whites Theater before a
very large audience, the programme
presented consisting of the farce,
1.-The Fool of the Family" and a
melange of songs, dances and recita-
tions called Scraps" The title is
an apt one, as there is an entire
absence of plot or purpose, and the
astonishing thing is that eight peo.
pie can occupy the stage for two
hours or thereabouts to the delight
of an audience. That they did this
was amply proven by the contin-
uous shouts of laughter and other
demonstrations of satisfaction COM
ing from the audience. The pro-
gress Of antics and sport is so en-
tirely without a pause that satisfac-
tion is given. The same program
me will be presented afternoon and
evening during the rest Of the week.

The advance agent explained to

eight people on the stage, there
were six in the orchestra, and that
the entertainment itself by the lat
ter was simply superb. The COM
will be here the 18th inst.
