"Ftiss PettiCoats" Comma.

With froufrOu of furbelows and rip
pies of laughter MISS PETTICOATS"
is on her way to the Oakland opera
house where she will be presented by
clever company on Saturday, Nov 20,
and the whole town is on the "qui vive'
to see and hear the adventures of this
wonderful girl, who, born of French and
American parentage Oh the New Eng
land coast, had a most remarkable
career. Her name was given her by
her fond grandfather, with whom she
lived on board of an old whaer, because
the mother, when dying, had called her
mon petit coeur and left her to old
Capt. Stewart, sturdy sea captain,
who lived in the cabin of the "Harpoon"
and here little Agatha Renter, daughter
of French nobleman, grew to woman
hood. Her brilliant evolution from this
quaint home, through the vicisstudes
of the smart set of New Bedford, and
her final graduation into aristocratic
circles of Paris as a leader of society,
furnished some very lively reading in
the novel of MISS PETTICOATS, "
and it was brought out as play about
five years ago at the great Boston
Theatre, where it was greeted nightly
by enthusiastic audiences, who pro-
nounced it powerful and thrilling
play. From the shores of picturesque
New England to the salon of the Coun-
tess tornay is long stretch, and makes
highly interesting contrast. The viii
lalnles and jealousy always awakened
by beautiful woman beset Agatha
from the beginning when she saved the
life Of a rich old lady by "clinging like
scarlet vine" to the horses heads.
until she returned in triumph and with
the same irresistible strength of will
inherited from her Puritan mother,
doomed all her former enemies. and
brings the remarkable drama to a
climax by giving up her own strong
will for cloves sweet sake Some
very funny incidents and a vein OF
happy wit runs through the play. The
four INLAND dance in the superb ball
room of the Countess in Paris by the
foyY~ sailors from the shores of New
England forms one of the most laugh
able situations and brings down the
house.

cordwood.
The new bank in the hotel annex
is a sure go. 1t will be in operation

and as he is well acquainted will be
sure to give good satisfaction.
Logging in the timber districts
around kamiah is now in full blast on
account of the late fall of snow. The
indications are now that there will be
several thousand more feet of logs put
into the mills than any winter before.
Robert Allison was down from Nez

Messrs. H. E. Renshaw and Louis
Bennett are now making preparations

factory and will have the business in
