D., says: "Lawrence Evart made his first appearance in Sioux Falls as a star Sunday evening. He appeared in Walker Whiteside's romantic comeoy drama entitled, "We are King," and certainly made a most favorable im pression. Mr. Evart is a larger man than Mr. Whiteride, which makes him better fitted for the part. He is an actor of considerable ability, as was evidenced throughout the performance Sunday evening. His changes from the sublime to the rediculous were ex ceptionally good pieces of acting. Mr. Evart is a rising young actor and is going rapidly to the front. He is surrounded by an excellent company, each person having seemingly been selected for the particular part for which he or she is cast. There was a large audience out at the New Theatre, notwithstanding it is the Lenten season. The play was ex cedingly well staged, particular atten tion has been paid to the scenery and costumes." At Emporium Opera House, Wednesday evening, Sept. 18. Serious Accident Averted. On Saturday about 12:30 o'clock, while F. W.

Stephens, son of Mr. and Mrs. Addison Stephens of Coudersport, whose death was mentioned in last week's PRESS, contracted the fever at Ridgway and went home about three weeks ago. The Coudersport Demo crat says: "All his brothers and sisters and parents were at his bed side nearly every minute, as was also Miss Edna Auchu, a prominent, estimable young lady of Emporium, whom he was en gaged to marry. The shock has been a terrible one to her as well as every member of his family, with whom he was a great favorite. Deceased was 28 years of Age. He was born in Hebron, aud spent all of his life in Potter county, with the ex ception of the time he was attending a commercial school in Buffalo and while working as an inspector of roads for the State Highway Department, in which capacity he was serving at the time he contracted the fatal disease. Tom, as he was familiarly known, was a fine looking promising young man. He was bright, active, honor able and faithful, and in all his deal ing with his fellow men he was true to the teachings of his estimable and re spected parents, and to them there must be some little solace in the thought that he led an upright life free from any taint or stain. He was an honor to himself and to his parents who gave him birth. Tom was a great social favorite, and there is great sor row among the many with whom he associated. Besides his parents he is survived by one brother and four sisters: John, Maud, Helen, Kathleen and Mollie." LAID TO REST. Potter Enterprise.

It costs very little more, in either time or money, to attend a really good school than to attend one of inferior grade, and the difference in the out come is sure to be very great. Young people of fair education, who have ability and ambition, give the Roches ter Business Institute the preference, I because they are able to discriminate, Getting on the right track is of the utmost importance. Busy Times. For the past two weeks there has been something doing every minute in our town to attract the attention of our people. A street fakir, a (street car nival, a show every night and a street meeting. With such a variety of at tractions one would naturally think anybody could find something suitable to their desire. The county fair will be the attraction next week. Although the fair has not been very extensively advertised on account of some technicality theclouds have now cleared away and the man agememeut are as busy aB can be in order to make it a success.
