In all these places the doctor has

Judging by the many more than ia |

DR.. Sproule (on persons hitherto deeI

be the chance of a lifetime for the

standing today, as he does, far in
vance of any specialist or medical id
tuition in this country, his wonder
success and skill are the outgrowth
several conditions by which alone "
he has done IN Vermont could be acc
plished.
First, the qualifications with which
ture has endowed him as evidenced
his keen perception into the mvsterie
all diseases with which those who an
to him are afflicted. He is thus erat
to clearly distinguish the exact charat
of the complaint and to conceive
proper and most effective kind of tr
ment for its entire cure.
Second, he is wholly devoted to
pro ession, having no other desire
achievement than to make still gran
the complete success which he has t
far attained. His great stability of CT
acter, his unceasing study and untir
energy to accomplish that which he

great and noble qualities, which one $,

him in his worthy ambition.
Third, his great advantages of stl

he served in all departments, and VIII
his great natural ability was acknt
lodged in all branches as being super

work.
Is it any wonder that with all of III
advantages in his favor, natural abil
study, experience and mind devoted

achieved his enviable reputation?
These, together with the fact that
has been endorsed by many of the IN

certainly warrant those who are afllic

A Flattering Outlook.

The outlook for the future develop.
ment of valuable gold deposits on the
limestone belt west Of this city. is daily
becoming more f1attcrihg. as evidenced
by the higher average tests which are
being made by the assayers Of this place.
The tests thus far have been mainly
confined to surface ore, the conditions
being rendered u~nfavorable for devel-
opment by reason of an over.abundance
Of snow, which promises to delay
practical exploration for some time to
come.
During the past week, many enrour
ing tests have been made upon surface
ores tax en- from various points along
the belt, notably from points south of
this city, in the vicinity Of Pringle, one
Of which showed a value Of more than
$50 TO the ton A number OF tests made
during the week have exceeded $40 per
ton, and the average of all tests made is
much higher than that of n previous
week since the origin Of the excitement
1t has now become the settled belief
among the miners and prospectors Of
this district, that a large number of
valuable mines will be opened up on the
belt during the coming summer, and
that eventually, the region will become
prominent among the leading gold
producing sections Of the Black Hills.
Among the numerous locators Of these
claims. this city is largely represented,
their locations covering a large portion
Of the belt from Pringle to Spring creek,
a distance Of more than 80 miles. There
has never been a time when the people
Of this place looked forward to the
opening of the spring season with such
intense anxiety and confidence as they
do now, and it is to he devoutly hoped
that their ardent anticipatiens of com
ing prosperity may be fully realized

Tho N asquerade.

The masquerade ball given at the
opera house on Monday night under
the auspices of the Odd Fellows, will be
remembered as one of the most pleasing
and enjoyable entertainments in Gus
ter's history. The spacious hall was
taxed to its fullest capacity to accom-
modate the numerous dancers, who,
arrayed in costumes elegant, quaint and
curious, tripped the light fantastic 10
the enchanting music which marked
the occasion.
A description of the various char
acteis represented on this delightful
occasion would involve much more
space than We have a: our disposal, and
it must therefore suffice TO say that they
embraced q rare medley Of the most
elegant, unique, quaint and shabby
costumes ever seen upon a similar oc-
casion in this place. The removal Of
the masks, which is always interesting
in its revelations, was soon followed by
an excellent supper served upon the
stage bv the Rebekah ladies which was
up to date in every feature and most
heartily enjoyed, after which the pleas
ures of the dance were resumed and
continued with unbrvken delight to a
late, or rather an early hour.
The exceptional success of this enter.
tainment, which resulted in adding $50
to the treasury of the society, is largely
due to the active and persistent efforts
Of the committee having it in charge,
who left no stone unturned that could
in the least contribute to that desirable
end. In addition to the large number
Of spectators that were admitted to the
main floor of the hall, the gallery was
also well filed with interested observers
all of whom held tickets bought at a
nominal consideration which entitled
them to the privilege of viewing the
grand spectacular scene. All patrons
unite in pronouncing the entertainment
one OF the most enjoyable they ever
attended, and are loud in their COM
mendation Of the faultless manner in
which the delightful affair was conduct
ed. The high reputation hitherto en-
joyed by the Odd Fellows as social ell
tertainers is now more fully established,
and in the future, the mere announce
ment of n social entertainment under
their direction will be accepted as
ample warrant Of its enjoyable char
acter.
