For some time past residents in differ.
ent parts of the city have been COM
planning of being the victims of petty
thieves. AS yet there have been no ar
rests made, but there is a sharp lookout
being kept, which may result in the
capture of the guilty parties. There j
no special line of goods chosen by the
thieves, anything in the way of fuel,
chickens and ever hay and feed being
among the stuff, which has been known
to have been taken. 1t would seem that
these representatives of the light.fnger
ed gentry arc becoming more bold in
their work. Only a night or so ago Pete
Sweeney's place was entered, and the
till tapped for its contents, amounting
over ten dollars. An entrance to the
building was effected through a transom
located in the back part Of the building
and from all appearances the thief had
laid his plans carefully before attempt
ing the job.-Rapid Journal.

The Uncle Toms Cabin company,
upon the merits of which the press OF
the Hills were notably divided in opin-
ion, made u sickly effort to present that
time orn drama at the opera house in
this city ON Friday night of last week to
the largest audience ever assembled
therein. 1t is sufficient to say that the
play. which was nothing more ia the
poorest parody OH the original
drama, was butcbered from start to
finish, much to the disgust and disatis
faction OF all present. The audience,
thinking there might be some redeem
ing feature connected with the show,
permitted the fake outfit to work it for
an extra contribution of ten cents tor
the concert which followed and proved
TO be the biggest fake Of the two. A lot
of worthless song books were also
palmed off upon the audience for stand
ard up to date song literature, at ten
cents apiece, and the Angel Eva kept
circulating promiscuously through the
audience. a la Lalimity Jane, trying to
dispose of her photographs. There was
nothing first class in connection with
the great (?l show except the music and
its autographs. and if they should ever
play in Custer again it will be to empty
chairs.
