While visiting Browns
Department Store the other
day I was surprised to see
the big values they offer in
Coats, Suits and Dresses.
Coats they sold before for
$1,000 they are now marked
down to $3.50.
$500 Suits marked down
now to 1896.
They certainly have a nice
selection in furs and to my
Judgment they are real
handsome and sold at the
lowest prices I ever saw.

starred by the Famous Players Film
Company, at the Robinson Grand to-
day, the woman who scored such a
marvellous triumph as "Zaza" far ex-
ceeds her previous performance In the
presentation of this willy serpent-like
woman who poisons the one man who
has triei to lift her from the depths
to which she has sunk. The role OF
bella Donna Is perhaps the greatest
test to which any actress can be sub
mitted, for she must be hateful, cruel,
savage, treacherous and at the same
time she must be so fascinating that
she will grip and hold the attention OF
her audience throughout the perform
ance. And, still more difficult, she
must win the sympathy Of her al-
dience sufficiently toward the end Of
the story. to make her final punish
ment, however just, seem cruelty trag-
ic. This is the well-nigh impossible
feat which this marvellous woman
Pauline Frederick, has performed In

The Sisseton weekly standard. (Sisseton, Roberts County, S.D.) 1892-1929, 1916-12-01

Electric lights will probably be
turned OIL at Roslyn the first of
the year. The city commissioners
have closed deal with Minnea-
polls firms for the necessary fix
lures and gasoline engine and
work will start OIL the plant as
soon as materials arrive.
Some fellows have so much brass
it is wonder the girls they kiss
don't have ptomaine poisoning.

High Court Hears Express Tax Cases

Pierre The supreme court is
hearing the express assessment
taxation cases. which have been
appealed from the circuit court
OF Hughes county. In the trial
court the Judge set aside the
assessment made by the tax COM
mission and fixed re.assess-
ment rate on the express com
panies not satisfactory to the
companies or the tax commission
so the case has been appealed.
The cases are very important
because the matter of assess
ment and taxation of express
companies in South Dakota has
been under extreme controversy
for some time, due to the fact
that the expess companies have
always contended that they
should be assessed only OH their
actual property, wagons, horses,
and building, i'm this state and
not ON their business.
