Brown's in Town."
One 01 tlic best titles ever given
to a farce comedy is ''Brown's in
Town" which will be the attraction
at Lloyd's on Friday evening Sept
8th. There is something amusing
in the very suggestion, as to why
tilts numerous gentleman is in the
city. It is said that this particular
Brown has enough cmbarassing
experience to thoroughly shake up
any audience. The amusing situa
tions of the farce arc said to ncvcr
nail on one, aud those who have
seen it pronounce it the most origi
nal of all of them. The convention
al mother-in-law, the stereotyped
old maid, the visiting aunt with
mother-in-law instincts, and the
time-worn German and Irish ser
vant have been dispensed with. The
storv of "Brown's in Town" is
told by young players which is
novel feature in itself, and a, farce
cannot help to be entertaining when
illustrated by such a clever collec
tiou of comedians a s seen in this
one. The management is confident
that 'Brown's in Town" will not
be compared to any of the latter
day farces, as the story is an en
ti rely new and original one. Sev
eral musical numbers are intro
duced aud arc said to fit admirably
The farce is in three acts, all o

The first number of the first vol
ume of the Cody Enterprise, pub
lished at Cody, Wyo., has made its
appearance. The paper is publish
ed by Cody & Peake, one member of
the firm being our own and only
Buffalo Bill and the other being J.
II. Peake, who is well known to all
old settlers in North Platte as he
was one of the first newspaper men
here. The paper presents a good
typographical appearance ana is
full of interesting reading matter.
The many North Platte friends of
the proprieters hope that their
venture will meet with the success
which it will deserves.
