enough for rent to build as good

it. Start at once by
BUYING A LOT.

annually for rent and how soon
this rental would buy a farm here.
What you pay out in rent in two
or three years in Iowa or Illinois
would buy equally as good a farm
in South Dakota. Stop renting
and come out and buy a farm of
your own and feel the independ-
ence Of
OWNING A HOME.
Don't delay this until next year, as
very much advanced prices for
South Dakota real estate, which Is
sure to come, viii soon prevent you
from buying, and your opportuni-

But many will say, Il have not

We own and control nearly all the

MUSIC AND DRAMA.
Isle of Champagne.

1t seems a pity that Mr.. Seabrooke
and his company can be here but for
tonight at the Portland Theatre, for his
delightful opera will surely make sensa-
ton in this city, and its return will be
eagerly looked for. However. had it not
been for the burning of the Globe Thea
tire in Boston, where "The Islem was
booked for a long run, we should not
have seen them at all this season, so we
one opportunity to see thesmerry burletta.
No opera of recent years contains so
many popular, catchy airs. and the fame
of the Prodigal Son" and the "Song OF
all Nations" has spread through the coun-
try. The company supporting Mr.. Sea-
brooke is noted as being one of the
strongest comic opera organizations ever
formed, and has not a weak spot In It,
One of the largest audiences of the season
should be in attendance at the Theatre
this evening, for the "Isle of Cham
pagnen is the talk Of the town this week.
Injured Innocents.
When Injured Innocents" receives its
first representation at City Hall next
Thursay evening the audience is going to
be surprised. just think of company
of seventy-four first class performers and
big orchestra of twenty pieces. just
wait till you see the "toughs," Mitchell
and Talbot. Won't the ladies open their
eyes when premiere danseuses Dixon and
Clifford come bounding down to the
footlights. There's going to be more
innocent merriment" crowded into two
hours and half than would be got or.
dinarily in week. There are still good
seats at Stockbridge's.
Lewis Morrison.
Mr.. Lewis Morrison will present his
| famous scenic and dramatic version of
Faust at the Portland theatre next Mon
day and Tuesday evenings Mr.. Morrison
| is all actor of established merit. He is
said to have a voice which without labor

penetrating, and personality that takes
on the wardrobe and makeup of Mephisto

in a way that makes him an ideal. HIS
impersonation, it is claimed, adheres
closely to Goethe's familiar and very
interesting story, but his treatment OF
the part is great improvement on any
that has yet been seen in opera or drama.
Satan, as represented by him, is
smoothfaced, plausible person, who
mixes with mortal mankind with
cheerful abandon that makes the
character easy to comprehend. The
scenery and mechanical effects are ex-
ceedingly strong. Electricity plays
prominent part in the production.
Hoss s. Hoss.
Willie Golfers famous farce comedy
nv this title will be the attraction at the
Por land theatre next Friday and Satur-
day evenings, and Saturday matinee. 1t
is well remem bered in this city from the
success made by it last year when it was
produced for the benefit of the Portland
Lodge of Elks.
Sappho.
When the Boston Grand Opera House
company were here in their superb pro-
duction of aRosedalen new comedy was
in rehearsal by them; "Sappho' was the
title. 1t has since been produced in Bos-
ton. where it made instant success.
Thursday and Friday evenings. February
18th and 10th it will be seen at the Port
land theatre, with all the favorites OF
this company in the cast.
Notes.
South Portland has opened its new
Union Opera House with "The Ticket

as soon as Mr.. Powers had finished speak
ing, saying to the jury that they had
listened with patience and care in this
case, and with pleasure no doubt to the
eloouence of counsel. But the time for
oratory had passed and the time had
come for deciding, without fear or favor,
without sympathy for the prisoner or
those dependent upon him. The officers
for the state and the attorneys for the
defense have fulfilled their duties ably
and impartially. Now the duties of you
and me begin, continued the judge.
Each Of us has duty. 1t is mine to see
that the case is conducted according to

Testimony is often conflicting. The ap-
pearance of each witness on the stand,
the reasonableuess and consistency. of his
statements, must be considered. The
law now allows respondents in criminal
cases to testify on their own behalf. The

legal writers, some urging that human

falsehood would eyert punishment,
