 land theater yesterday. The audiences were very large both afternoon and evening, and they applauded enthusias- tically. Mr Moore has sweetly sym pathetic tenor voice, delicately shaded and interprsts the lines of his ballads in a way to bring home their real mean ing to the hearts of his hearers. When he sang a verse of Sweet Marie" the song that has made his name known the world over, the audiences were in tensely ardent in their applause, and he was recalled again and again. fine company supports MT. Moore, the four Lueiers particularly winning much fa- vor for their splendid instrumental spe- cialty.

Grand Opera House.

"The Great Northwest, a scenic mel odrama in five acts, under the direction of Fred c. Whitney, made its initial appearance at the Grand opera house last evening The piece deals with in- cidents in the west, where wheat is king, where cities spring up in a sin gle day and where life is natural and unconfined The action is laid in and near Boom City, in the Red River val ley of the north Here Captain Sheaf is elected mayor and falls in love with the daughter of Judge Harding, but owing to the working of villainous plot the old adage, true love never runs smooth" is we'll defined The setting Main street, Boom City, and the blizzard on the prairie are exceptional ly fine. In the latter scene the heroine is caught in a large windmill and car ried violently around until rescued by her lover, who has just gained con- sciousness in snow drift. J. J. Dow ling as Robert Sheaf was very good, and Sheridan Block as Bart Foxwell was first-class and made a success of his villainous role. The character of Nubbins is well placed in the hands of Miss Myra. Davis, who is the life of the show Miss Maud Hosford made a capital adventures, while special praise is due Miss Jessie Bonstelle as the judges daughter John H. Brown as United States civil engineer pos sesses ability and Joseph Conyers and Eric Pollock as rival chiefs were very funny.

A Pleasant Neighborhood Picnic.

On last Saturday there was an enjoy
able picnic at the home of Mr.. w. S.
Marshall, about six miles north of Daw-
son, by the people of that community.
About $50 people were present, and it is
safe to say that pleasanter day was
never spent anywhere. The dinner was
never excelled on any like occasion, and
there were iced refreshments in album
dance. The NEWS man had a cor
dial invitation to be present, and very
much regrets that circumstances on that
day were such that it was impossible for
him to meet and mingle with these good
people. A friend of THE News, who en-
joyed the good things of the occasion,
sends us the following note:
son the 4th day of July the communi-
ty around Uncle Wood Marshall's met
and had a nice picnic. Lemonade was
served free to the crowd. 1t was got
ten up by Aunt Susan Bridges and Mrs.
M. Marshall. Everybody seemed to en-
joy it, The little folks had swing and
ran foot races. The old folks (men5 talk
ed free silver and the boys and girls talk
ed love all day. You ought to have been
there to eat ham and chicken and pork
and pi :, and other good things too te-
dious to mention. There was enough
left to feed as many more"

Just WHAT'S Needed

Excleims thousands of people who
have taken Hoods Sarsaparilla az this
season of the year, who have noted the
success of the medicine in giving them
relief from that tired feeling, waning
appetite and state of extreme exhaust
ion after the close confinement of long
winter season, the busy time attendant
upon a large and pressing business dur.
ing the spring months and with vacation
time yet some weeks distant. 1t is then
that the building-up powers of Hoods
Sarsaparilla are fully appreciated. 1t
seems perfectly adapted to overcome
that prostration caused by change of sea-
son, climate or life, and while it tones
and sustains the system it purifies and
vitalizes the blood.

A Horse Burned to Death.

Hon. D. R. Stewart, of Randolph, was
in the city Saturday. He told THE
NEWS that the report that the barn at
his home place, together with a fine
horse and large quantity of provender,
had been burned was mistake. A
horse and stable on farm operated by
a negro tenant were burned, and the ex-
aggerat'd report grew from this. Mr..
Stewart says the fire was the work of an
