This troupe played at Lane' Hall Tuesday and Wednesday even ing to fair audience. In our opinion the company is the beat that ha performed here since the Berger Family.

We clip the following concerning the Calendar Minatrela from the Dayton, W T Journal: "This band of darkle gaveapei formance in Dayton but Friday and Saturday evening. Neither house wa very large- but equal to the merit of the performance. Th 'end men' for some reason, were a por a ever tried to afflict a Dayton audience. There waa nothing really meritonoua about the troupe but the instrumental music. A year ago Callender had a good show; but Dayton ha seen better by far since.

Money order under ten dol lars cost eiuht cent The only change tha Pot Office hss any right to give is money, so that without the old-time pennies the change cannot be made. This is one thing which is bringing them into ue, few people caring to give the Government two cent without they are obliged to.
