FIRST ENTERTAINMENT
NERY pL EASING ONE

The opening entertainment in the Y.
p. S. C. e. lyceum course at the New
Grand last evening was a highly salts
factory one. Though there was a very
good audience present, yet the COM
pany and the cause deserved a larger
crowd. The Slayton Jubilee Singers
pesented a program that was thorough
ly enjoyed from the first number to the
last, and if any evidence was
needed that those present were
enjoying the evening it was GER
tainly forthcoming in the hearty
applause with which each performer
was compelled to respond to an encore
and in some instances three and four.
The choruses were excellent, the solos
very good and the male ~quartette, on
account of it's ludicrous impersona-
lions. was hardly able to Salty the au-
dience in quantity so pleasing was the
quality. The clarionet solo was prob
ably as good as ever heard here andthe
bird whistler was almost perfection.
The Y. P. S. c. e. is to be congratulate
ed on the splendid entertainments pro
yided for this season, every one OF
which will be as good as the one of last
evening. and the public generally
should show their appreciation by ex
tending the patronage the course sc
richly deserves.

lists in hat line. To hear their must
cal voices and see them dressed in the
garb of old Gaul will be a treat. Sci
dom do Laramie people have an oppor-
tunity to hear such a gifted singer as
Miss Mamie Strachan, the border

who for the first time Is making a tour
of the United States, after having sung
in all the large cities of Europe. With
a trained, cultured voice with such

charm, delight and entertain her audi

borne and Vacant store Building
Marketman Has Brother Here.

Rawlins, Wyo., Oct. l6.-The Raw
Inns opera house, formerly owned by
DR.. j. L. Osborne, the two Osborne
dwellings and the Lundquist block
burned last night, entaillng a loss OF
more than $4,000. The fire is sup
posed to have started in the scenery
of the opera house and before it could
be e~xtinguished that building and four
others were destroyed, among them
one occupied by William Weightman
as a meat market, which stood on the
corne of the street.
Weightman Heavy Loser.
DR.. Osborne is considered one of the
w%ealthiest men in this city and was
the democratic candidate for governor
two years ago. Mr.. Weightman loses
the fixtures and the stock of meat on
hand. The market was owned by him
and his brother, ]. q. Weightman, of
Laramie.
owned by Frews and PoPp.
The opera house was owned by the
Frew Brothers and Mr.. Popp, who
bought it from Dr.. Osborne and had
been paying on 1t from line to time.
The two dwellings burned were owned
by DR.. Osborne, one of them he having
formerly occupied as an office. One
of these was a brick structure, the 9TH
er building being frame. The building
between the Weightman market and
the opera house was vacant at the
time of the fire.
Insurance Carried.
Mr.. Weightman this morning tele-
graphed to his brother at Laramie and
hat gentleman is expected on the train
tonight. 1t Is presumed the property
was pretty well covered by insurance
and the loss will not be total. Mr.
Weightman was able to ave very lit
tie of his belongings from the market
