On Monday night July Cd, 1888, our
citizens will be highly favored by the
appearance of the Nellie Walters Silver
Spur Co. at Smiths Opera House. This
Co. has become almost a household word
IN the northwest and our citizens are
assured q treat. The Huronite Of Huron,
Dakota, in its issue of June II, says:
The Walters Silver Spur and Nerve Combina-
ton have just closed a successful weeks en-
gugement IN Huron. Manager OPP. Helm of
the Grand is jubilant over the result of his in
vestment. In bringing the company from st.
Paul he incurred heavy expenses, but tho I'M
precedented success of the company has rea-
LIKED him handsomely. The com nany is an ex-
ceptionally fine one, and the undisputed favor
lite of North and South Dakota. Too much can
not be said in praise of Miss Walters, the bright,
vivacious, and captivating star. She possesses
the happy faculty of pleasing her audience
without the slightest vulgarity. Her songs and
dances are always applauded to the echo. This
bright and talented little lady is supported by
IL strong metropolitan company. Aside from
their being artists of recognized ability they are
a company of ladies and gentleman in the full
acceptance of the term. This company is
backed by capital. They are strictly a COM
pany that is first class and in every way deserv-
ing of the liberal patronage bestowed upon
them.
Let everyone attend as it is, without
doubt the finest company that ever
visited our city.

Great Country This.

Mr.. John Hume, of Apple River, ILL.,.
home Wednesday morning. He
has been visiting his son-in law. Mr..
John II. Richardson. of Bijou Hills, for
the past three weeks. Mr.. Hume was
in Dakota three years ago and was not
as we'll pleasd with the country as he
might have been. Local droughts made
the outlook not very encouraging at
that time and he thought Mr.. Richard
son had made . great mistake by ever
moving to such a country. No trees,
no crops. no Improvements that
amounted to anything. nc nothing, he
said. But the change in three years is
very pleasing. On this visit he found
nne farms opened up, magnificent
houses and barns, large fenced pastures,
numberless groves Of beautiful trees and
crops such as he had never seen before
such crops as are only raised in Da.
kota. The change is wonderful indeed.
Mr.. Hume is a farmer of twenty five
years experience and knows whereof he
speaks when he says a man makes nc
mistake when he comes to Dakota.
