In justice to the publishers Of THE
UNIONS forthcoming magazine edi-
ton we desire to say in reply to the
Keystone Miners remark that ct
would not be in it," because it chad
no cuts belonging to the town to
trade for space" that no paper or
individual in Pennington county has
"traded cuts for space" in this ed
ition, or loaned them for use in ex-
change for space. And we might
add that the Keystone Miner will be
lin it, cuts or no cuts, the same as
any other Pennington county enter
prise deserving of a place in such an
edition. Editor Reinard should not
jump at onclusions-th that's all.
One of the FUNNIEST character on
the stage today is Mr.. Karl Bennett
as he appears in the character of
zeke Dobson, the gawky, uncouth
but true-hearted farmer lad in ''The
Missouri Girl. y In this charming
comedy the author has given us a
touch of real life from the romantic
region of the Ozark mountains in
Southwest Missouri. The charac-
tiers in the play, the scenery and
mechanical effects, are drawn from
life, with the skill of which this
author is capable, and every detail
OF the production is conducted under
his personal supervision, will be
seen at the Library hall, Monday,
April %. Tickets at McNamara's.
