-'THE DERBY WINNER 2
The Great Racing Comedy to Be Presented
 in Pine Bluff.

1t has been said that the stage of the Pine Bluff Opera-honse was too small to allow "The Derby Winner" to he presented in its entirety with scenery. etc, and to settle the mat ter and find out if such was the case, Manager Rowland wrote To the manager of the company in regard to the matter and he received the fol- lowing letter. which is certainly eX- plicit enough to satisfy all who may care to see this produc- ton, which is certainly the best of it's class on the road:

 My DEAR SiR-In response to q query as to whether '"Fhe Derby Winner can be produced in it's en- tirety on the stage of the Opera house, 1 take pleasure in saying it's dimensions will answer all our re- quirements, and our five race horses, | including Ed COrrigans Old Free land, can race on your stage as well as upon the stage of the Grand 1 Opera-h0uSe of St. Louis, where we started our season. All we want is a clear stage, and if we do proclaim it, we will practically show the greatest raee-seene on the American stage today.
 The stahle-scene. representing tho race-hoFses in their stalls, will like wise be shown on your stage witt it's full complement of accessories,

A Communication.
Spencer, Neb., Feb. IL,

Spencer, Neb., Feb. IL, 1895.
Editor of the Kennebec Journal, Augusta,
Me.
Dear Sir: i beg to ask space through
the columns of your valuable paper, to
fully explain the Institution that confront
the people of this vicinity at this time.
The people of this country are panied to
call the attention of their eastern friends
with plenty to, on account of drought
and failure of crops, the people of this
country are in a destitute condition.
Woman and men begging for food is a
daily sight upon the streets of our suffer
ing little town. These settlers are forced
to appeal to their eastern friends or see
their children perish with cold and hun
ger. Go where you will throughout the
entire vicinity you will find men, women
and children, shivering, starving and cry
ing" no clothes, no food, no money, no
light, no hope.
The cause Of this great and unavoidable
distress, is on account of settlement be-
ing made upon Indian lands and the
same being in new country, and those
settling upon these lands, were not in
prosperous condition at the time of max
ing settlement, to raise the necessaries of
life, in which to provide for the evil day
that now confront them in their unfor-
tunate homes. Then the severe drought
that prevailed all over the northern part
of the State, is the cause of this state of
affairs to exist. This country is part of
the Great Sioux Indian reservation,
opened for homestead entry and settle
ment by presidents proclamation in the
year $780, and those who settled upon
these lands are those of limited means
who came to procure homes for themsel-
YES and families, and the present failures
places those people in an embarrassing
condition beyond expression. No one ex-
cept those who live near those destitute
people, can fully realize the deep distress
these settlers have to undergo, and the sad
affairs that must confront them unless
some adequate remedy is reached for their
present needs.
The position taken by the writer is to
lay before the people (of unlimited means
and provisions) the true state of affairs
just as they exist and to ask the assist
ance of their eastern friends to assist
them in the great hour of their deep dis
tress.
The writer is deeply grieyed to be placed
in to position in which to call upon
friends of his own native State, to assist
those suffering people in their unfortun-
ate homes in new country. Yet the
duties thus imposed upon me as secretary
OF our Relief Society will fully explain
