his place was fairly besieged night and

There were not over forty people in
the theatre last night to listen to the

the receipts were not heavy. This band
of rovers will leave on it's journey east
this morning and give performances at
the cities and towns south of here. The
men may decide to ride. however, and
slide into convenient box cars.
It was hoped that the Smith contin-
gent would leave night, but it is still
encamped at the old glass works and
it is an open question when the march
or ride will be resumed. General
Smith says his people are waiting for
the provisions owing from the city on
account of the enforced delay of the
army at the Davis county line. It is
hardly probable the desired eatabIes
will be on hand when most desired.
