One of VIM. Burns teams was
driven TO River Falls Monday by
Fred La Monte, and that night was
united by somebody from where Mr..
La Monte had them hitched; they
got home Tuesday morning without
a thing wrong. They either quietly
walked all the way home, or some
body drove them nearly to town and
set them free in such a shape that
it would look as if they had come
alone. Spring Valley Sun.

We had so much local matter last
week that must necessarily go that
we were compelled to condense
many articles and to set much of
the type solid, while many articles
we had planned for the edition had
to be laid aside-and the capacity
of the paper is much larger than
that of any other in the two coun-
ties. The stress of work incident
to reducing elaborated items, set
ting so much type, much of it with
out leads, together with the arrange
ment for new ads, making up the
forms, correcting, and printing, set
us so far into the night that it was
past midnight before the edition
was off the press. This explanation
in extenuation for the failure of pat
rons to get their paper on Thurs
day evening.
The Hans Hansen Comedy Com
pany played here Friday night to a
good house. The entertainment was
fine in every respect. The music
was superb, both in the band and
orchestra. The band comprises
twenty pieces, and each operator
knows his piece aud makes it re-
spond to his apprehension of the
music with spirit and accuracy.
Aside and in addition to the fact
that the musicians are all adopts in
handling their instruments, is the
circumstan that the music they
played here is peculiar, the tunes
having many abrupt and startling
changes. The orchestra was equal
ly good in it's place. The play,
Hans Hansen" is a good one and
was we'll played. The troupe is one
of the best that has ever played in
this city. And, we repeat, the music
was Sld 1O.
