Dramatic and Social Matters lnterspersed
With General News.


With General News.
Our town paper, the Bugsr, came out on
Saturday last quite improved in appear
ance. Instead Of patent inside it was
printed at home. Quite a noticeable fact
was there was more local news in this issue
than in any issue since the paper was
started. Success to you, Bro. Bugler
Talking about the Bugler reminds US of
the fact that we do not write our items to
suit it, as is evidenced by the remarks made
IN Saturdays issue regarding our report of
GIlmore's appearance here. Not having
any relatives TO Halter nor special friends
TO please we allow common sense to govern
our actions. If it were otherwise the re-
mark made by one of the performers the
previous Saturday night might with justice
be applied to US. No; you are wrong, Mr..
BugteI, we were not sneering at anyone,
but simply stauing facts, and facts do not
lie.
The Home Dramatic club, of Brigham,
has the ''The Celebrated Case, or the
Convict's Daughter" under way, get
ting ready for presentation here

made one commendable effort in favor
of the people, and that is it had reduced
The price of admission. This fact alone
should I'LL the house TO witness the per-
Torrance, which undoubtedly will be a
good one. 1t is making great efforts to
please the people, and ii should be encour-
aged by 1ull house. AS already noted in
your columns, our opening ball in the
Opera house room has come and gone. We
gave the young gentleman and young lady
who furnished the repor. credit with being
better acquainted with colors than they
nave shown themselves to be. Some of the
young ladies present say that they must
have been looking through colored glasses
when looking at their dresses. And the
names-of course it was the comp. who
muulated that part of the report: 1t was
not poor writing or misspelling that done
that. Mrs. Lille HorSley was surprised
to find her name changed TO Mrs Lillian
Crosby, etc., etc.
The ball has given some of our young
men as well as the ole ones something to
talk about. Several of the ladies wore
decoette dresses and some of the gentle
men the regular dress suit Some of the
boys were saying they would have to ap-
pear without some of their outer garments
in order to keep up with the ladies in style
We agree with ''Nellie Naughty" we like
TO see the ladies wear something more than
shoulder straps and waist bands. Rumor
says that one lady was short
time ago requested to go home and dress

keeping up with the latest styles.
