The Empire Stock Company will open a week's engagement at the
Dohaney theatre in Council Bluffs, and the Nonpareil, Glove
and Omaha Bee state that it is far superior to the higher priced
attractions which have preceeded them, which is highly
complementary, when we consider the fact that all the New York
troupes
play in the above theatres. Their prices are within the reach of
all, too, 20 to 30 cents. Reserved seats now on sale at Penn's
Drug Store. Come early and get a good seat".

Huse N. Morgan, manager of the Empire StockCo., is now playing a
week's engagement in our little city , and proves, as
recommended, to be one among the very best Dramatic Companies now
on the road. Mr. Morgan is well known throughout this entire
section of country as also he is in theatrical circles over all
the western states. In the selection and management of this
company Huse has made no mistakes and he is to be congratulated
upon securing such talented artists as the ones who compose this
company. All their plays are
new and popular and have been produced with great success in all
the leading cities of the east. The troupe will continue in
Sidney the remainder of the week with a grand family matinee
Saturday afternoon. Large audiences attend each evening.
