nee Saturday ladies gold watch will
be given away.
The comedy-drama, "Tyler Flats"

ner In which it was rendered, showed
the company to be composed Of first
class artists; especially was this evinced
in Mr.. Buchanan's playing. Between
the acts the violinist, A. Heft, display
ed fine powers on his instrument
