The recent articles in the News that have heaped abuse on the heads of Col. Coates and the management of the Opera House, have brought forth fruit not anticipated by their writers. We are informed that on the night of the 25th, Mr. Armour, of the firm of Armour, Plankinton & Co., bought $100 worth of tickets, being led to do so by his indignation at the course pursued by the News. This, though the most substantial, is not the only manifestation of interest evinced by the friends of Col. Coates, in the controversy.

There was never a store "out West,"
Better supplied than that of Baer.
He has suits for men and suits for boys --
You can't find better anywhere.
There never was a person yet,
Who bought a suit of clothing there,
But felt well pleased and told his friends
To buy their suits from Mr. Baer.
A. Baer, Frank's Hall Clothing House, 426 Main street, Frank's Hall, opposite the Public Square.
