issue regarding the appearance of the

on Sunday evening will give grand
sacred concert at the Grand Opera

ties have reason to be extremely
pleased with the reception at the two
concerts given by this famous crack
military band at Fitzhugh hall, yester-
day afternoon and evening. At both
performances they We're greeted with
large audiences, which applauded and
encored from start to finish and If
the "Kilties' had not been very long
winded fellows, as becomes her ma
jesty's boys from the Highlands, they
&never could have endured the stress.
Not in many n moon has the stage
of Fitzhugh hall held so picturesque
a gathering as these boys in kits, of
dark brown and green tartan, bright
red coats, and the plaid artistically
arranged in graceful folds. They made
a fine and soldierly appearance"

place in Akron. The result of this
popular good viii is noted in the daily
increasing patronage given TO the

Minneapolis, Nov. 24.-Highway ar
lists have been unusually active n
wonderfully daring in Minneapolis
lately. A particularly bold hoid-up
was perpetrated by two highwaymen
on the bridge over the railroad tracks

w. Skoog OF Cokato, Mimi, was the
victim. He lost 1878 in money and was
severely beaten beside. Skoog was en-
route to the Omaha freight office to
visit with q relative when he was
robbed. Two stalwart fellows pounced
upon Skoog. Presenting a revolver
they demanded that he throw up MS
hands. After taking the money one OF
the robbers dealt their victim a terrible
blow on the head and he fell uncon-
scsous to the ground.
