"A Hoosicr Daliy."
Manager Lloyd will olTcr lus pa
trons of next Friday evening one
ol the very best pastoral comedy
dramas ever written, "A Iloosier
D.iIh)' by John A. Froser, the well
known playwright. The production
is of the highest order ot merit, the
entire scenery and stage setting
which are carried being remarkably
realistic and handsome. The play
is not one of the farcial order, but
has a well defined plot that holds
the interest of the audience from
the ride of the curtain to the very
climax ol the last act, The title
role, which is portrayed by Miss
Bessie Clifton, is that of a gawky,
awkward country girl, reminding
one of "Sis Hopkins," yet it is ol
an entirely different style and as
original a conception as any on the
stage at the present time. The
characters that surround the title
role arc such seen in the small
towns of the Hoosicr State (Indi
ana) and the quaiutness of entire
production will appeal to all
classes of theatrc-gocra. It is the
real theatrical novelty of the sea
son, combining comedy, pathos,
sentiment and a t-trong lieart'o
story, all ot the necessary elements
of a successful comedy drama. The
play has met the most tlattcring
success everywhere, and will no
doubt be greeted by a large audi
ence here.

company; but 1 cannot never my
connection from those lor wlios-e
spiritual welfare I have labored,
and with whom 1 have been ho
pleasantly associated, without ex
pressing my deep sorrow, my sin-
cere regret, at bcint,' forced to cud a
relationship which has been fo
gratitying to me, and, I hope and
pray, both profitable ami agreeable
to all concerned. No period of my
lie has been so enjoyable an the
six months last past in which 1
have had the acquaintance, good
fellowship and spiritual communion
of the good people of North Platte
circuit. It will ever remain a green
Hjiot 111 my memory, and 1 Jsliall al
ways revert to it as among the
most pleasing avocations which
have come to cheer inv journey
ilong life's rugged road. The out-
pourings ol the spirit ol the living
Gnil experienced at Hershey, Har
mony, Mylaudcr, Kiukaid and eUe
where on the circuit will be remem
bered as spiritual oases lrom which
have been gathered the rich fruit
and sweat vintage of God's eternal
love.
My heart goes out to those dear
people, and my ardent prayer is
that they may ever walk in the
path of wisdom for "her ways are
ways of pleasantness and all her
paths are peace." Oh! how glor
ious a realization it will be, when
the little leaven hidden in the
measure of meal through the con-
certed efforts of the christian
people of the riicuit, joined with
my own labors, and moistened by
the cmbrosial dew of heaven, hliall
leaven 1 he whole lump, and all the
church shall be ablaze with liolv
fire trom the altar of the Lord.
Brethren, Sisters of the circuit,
with feelings nf the deepest regard,
1 thank every one of you for your
kindness to me during my labors
among you, 'and lor your spiritual
ainl financial assistance so cheer
fully given. My pi ayer shall ever
he that you may enjoy the pleasure,
felicity and pence ot a christian life

wear a starry crown bedecked with
jewels rare for souls brought J to
Christ and saved through your in
Ftrumcniality. I hope to meet you
in that laud which knows 110 sor
