BLACK DIAMONDS.

The Black Diamond Minstrel troupe
appeared a. the Grand Open House,
Thursday evening. January 10th As ad-
vertised. A large audience greeted them.
The performance was first-class through
out. We wish to say right here that this
is not q paid notice or given simply -
complimentary notice. but is given upon
the genuine merits of the company. The
troupe consisted of seventeen members
end we believe with the exception Of Mr..
Ginger was all Colby talent. 1t is hard to
make any special personal mention as all
did so well. but we will say that Harry
Weaver, as the lightning artist. proved
himself to be at the top Of the ladder in
his profession. His work was perfect and
was done in a lightning manner. Too
much praise cannot be given him and
the company should be proud to have
such member. The piano duet by Mrs.
J. j. Mccullough and Mr.. e. E. Adolph.
was fine Messrs Undertake, HOvey
and Smith did exceedingly well while
Mccullough and Ginger were-well we
hardly know how TO express 1t. they
were way up. they were simply i'm
mense. The orchestra was first-class. the
piano used was from Squire Ponds jew
elry and music store Of this city. The
entertainment was interesting from be-
ginning to close. no long impatient waits
between acts. We think that jOlller or
more social ''set" never struck the road"
and THE SENTINEL wishes them the
greatest succesS-HOxie Sentinel.

Brewster, Kansas.

Mr.. EDIToR:--We are heartily in accord
with your views in regard to our interest in q
representation in the State Farmers Associa.
tioh. Thomas county should not be behind in
this respect if the sister counties are.
As TO vot ng bonds" for q sugar plant, I
think that everything should be done that
can be done in reason in all parts Of western
Kansas. especially. to encourage sorghum
culture and its manufacture into sugar And
Ga a see many arguments ID favor of bonding
for it. Sorghum is the one product OF our soil
upon which there can be no discount.
We would l:ae to hear from others. among
your numerous Subscribers on this subject.
Yours for progrsss. WA. PRATT.
