Dallas has one factory that has
neither a whistle nor smoke-stack
but which nevertheless turns out an
average of 22'00 smokes a week with
out making any fuss or turning a
wheel. The. proprietors are A. A. Sils-
bee and ]. j. Campbell, and several
months ago they began business here
under the name of the Dallas Cigar
Factory, and have been making smok-
able goods ever since. They produce
four copyrighted brands, known as the
Advance" and the "Bankable," both
five-cent cigars; the Booster" a TO-
center; and "Elstello," a classy two
for-a-quarter. All of their goods are
first-class, and the best to be had for
the money. Their factory is clean,
their materials are choice, and their
products are superior to the cheap,
sweatshop goods from the East. One
kind of tobacco used by them costs
$3.50 a pound. The fame of their
goods is spreading, and they ship
cigars as far as Goldendale, Washing
ton. If they can get the full benefit of
the 'patronize- ze-home-industry idea,
they will be enabled to enlarge their
business and will put a man on the
road.

Popular Vaudeville.

The appearance of Hoyt, the Texas
cowboy magician, and Espanita, the
globe dancer, at the Grand Theater,
Monday night, drew a large audience,
and proved an extraordinary attrac-
tion. 1t is to be regretted that they
have not a longer engagement here,
but tonight and tomorrow night, Tues
day and Wednesday, will be their last
performances here. Hoyt gave an in
teresting series of tricks in magic. and
his great trunk mystery is startling
and bewildering. Espanita far excels
the average Spanish dancer. and her
spectacular dance and balancing act
on the rolling globe is worth several
times the price of admission.
