Lecture Course
The time has arrived for Alliance lovers
of good, clean entertainments to determine
whether or not a course will be put on for
'the season. The lecture course plan is
the only plan whereby the best entertain
ments can be had at reasable prices. Al
liance is so situated that the cost of trans
portation of concert and opera companies
is so great that the larger and better com
panies can not be bad. The lecture
course plan removes this diffiuculty as the
talent furnished visits other places near by.
There is a large amount of work and re
sponsibility connected with managing a
course. The proposed course for 1910-11
will cost Ji75 more than any previous
course. This will necessitate a larger
number of sales ot season tickets. The
patrons can greatly assist the management
by either phoning or applying in person
for tickets. The following is the proposed
line-up for this fall and winter:
Trier Concert and Opera Quintette.
This company is composed of five young
ladies, sisters, two pair of twins in the
company. They come with the best of
recommendations.
Totton, the famous magician, will give
an entertainment of magic. Ye Old Town
Male Quartette will be the third number.
Gilbert A. Lee Eldridge, impersonator
and entertainer. Ringler-Donavan Con
cert Co. and Bell Ringers. Winona Sing
ers, a company of young ladies, and Dr.
Otterbein O, Smith, the lecturer, seven
numbers in all compose the proposed
course for this winter.
This is two numbers more than com
posed previous courses. The season tick
ets sell at $2.00 and will be transferable,
but admission will be limited to two ad
missions for any one entertainment.
Tickets may be procured at Holstein's
or from. Rev. J. M. Huston.
"The Right" Store Moves
Vor six vears Roy Beckwith, proprie
tor of "The Right" clothinp store, has
been located at 111 Box Butte avenue.
He has been selling reliable goods and
because of reasonable prices has built
up a big business. He has done busi
ness in a conservative way and has
prospered.
Recently the Adler people, who own
considerable property in Alliance, were
asked by him to erect a special building
for his business, and this has been
done. He will soon move into the new
building, which is in a better location
two doors north of The Herald office,
and with his competent force of clerks
and fine stock of goods will be in better
position to serve his patrons.
Before moving he desires to close out
his summer line, and the prices he is
making, which can be seen in his ad
on page nine of this paper, will move
the stock quickly.

It is being demonstrated that toma
toes and other garden products can
be grown in Alliance by Mrs. G. H,
Stanton of this city, who has one vine
with 120 tomatoes on it in her garden.
One bushel was picked from three
vines. This is not luck but it is the
result of careful selection of seed toma
toes for three years and shows what
acclimated seed will do when compared
with seed from other localities. There
are about forty vines in Mrs. Stanton's
garden and she has plenty for her use
as well as for her friends. One vine
literally loaded with tomatoes is on
exhibition in the Newberry Hardware
store window.

T. J. Threlkeld, the local representa
tive of the Crown piano, reports busi
ness very good. One of his recent sales
is a beautiful Crown piano to Mr. Car
ter, office inspector of the Burlington.
This piano was purchased from Mr.
Threlkeld after Mr, Carter had exam
ined instruments and secured prices in
Denver, Omaha and other cities. It
surely shows that the prices of the
local merchants are as reasonable as in
the large cities.
Fire in Grocery
At 12:30 Sunday night fire was discov
ered in the building occupied by James
Graham's grocery. The department quick
ly responded and not much damage was
done. The file started in a stack of match
boxes and was caused by mice. A guard
was placed in the building for the rest of
the night. The damage is estimated at
from fifty to one hundred dollars.
A. S. Reed Leaves for Arizona.
A. S. Reed, who recently purchased
a fine CO acre farm in the Salt River
Valley of Arizona, shipped his 6tock
and household goods Tuesday night
and together with his family left
Wednesday night for their new home.
Mr. Reed has been a resident of Box
Butte county many years but the de
lightful climate and fruits of the south
ern country have induced him to
leave. We wish him success in bis
new location.
I have had my old barn entirely re
modeled and fixed up. I will do t
feed and sale business and solicit your
patronage. Simoh'Spry.

Sec. Com.
Chas- Glaze, the enterprising marble
dealer of Hemingford, was in Alliance
last Thursday and favored our office
with a call. He is doing an extensive
business, but like most business men
wants to increase bis trade, hence
orders an ad in The Herald, the same
to be printed on first page. This ad
vertisement was intended to commence
with last week's issue but the order
for it was received a little too late for
insertion.
