when the wind is fair, most of them may be
seen dotsing the lake, presenting a picture
seldom seen elsewhere. The great need OF
the lake, to make it one of the finest sum-
mer resorts in the State, is good hotel accom-
modations. The Lake House is well kept
but is too small and too far away from the
lake to make it a desirable place to remain
any great Tenth of time. No better location
can be found anywhere for the investment
of few thousand dollars in a neat and sub
stantisl summer hotel. PHYRIXUs.

Next Monthly Drawing, August 80.
Unprecedented success of the new and orig
inal feature OF allowing any ticket holder pres
emit the privilege of calling out his number and
seeing it placed in the wheel. Why don't they
all do it?
The last drawing of the Commonwealth Dis
tribution company. in Louisville, KY, was the
grandest success of all. Macauley's Theater
was filed to overlooking, and many persons
called out the numbers of their tickets, which
were readily shown them and placed in the
wheel. The numbers representing all the tick
cts, from / TO 100000, are accurately printed by
machinery, spread out on table, and SO ar
ranged in packages OF 100 that 1t is only the
work of a moment to pick out any number. II
is there, all must be there, as 1t is iM posi-
bic to know what numbers will be called for.
This is a sure prevention against fraud or IA
vorftism. The next grand drawing will be
conducted in the same manner and the same
splendid scheme presented, viz: $50 prizes,
amounting to s1l2.4c0. Orders are pouring in
from all parts of the country, SO great is the
confidence in the integrity of the company.
Tickets are only 81; halves, 81. See advertise

The Professor and the Parasol.
ISan Francisco Bulletin.l

We are acquainted with good natured
and at the same time astute old professor,
who maintains that it is quite impossible for
a man to properly and correctly bold para
sol over the head of an attractive young
lady. He himself has wrestled successfully
with Pliny, Plato and Sophocles; he has
written historical works; he understands
many languages; he is well posted in philos
ophy, psychology and metaphysics; but
when 1T comes to holding parasol SO that
the shade will slumber on the features of
lady, he freely admits that he is al sea, and
that every university in the land should add
to its other attractions parasol chair.
Last summer he took a walk in Central
park with a young lady. Before they had
journeyed very far she intrusted her parasol
to him. He held it over most esthetically
for about five minutes, and then it shifted
out of position, and his arm began to tremble.
"You are not shading me at all" she
lisped most melodiously, you are throwing
all the shade on that horse over there"
The professor apologiZed, and once more
got the parosol where it would do the most
good. 1t was beginning to get a little heavier.
His arm trembled like an aspen. He thought
he was carrying keg of nails.
''Now, then, you goose" she broke in,
you'll have me all sunburned directly.
Hold 1T up SO: see?'
The professor saw. He was longing for a
chance to get under tree, SO he could get a
rest; but she would not go near one; she
had an idea that q good sun bath was just
what she needed.
sis not that lovely scene?" she warbled.
sJust look at the pretty stretch of waving
grass dotted with flowers!"
Delightful, delightful" replied the pro-
| fassor as he worked his other hand around
and deposited his elbow on it SO that his
parasol arm would not drop out by the
| cots.

"Won't you have some ice cream, Maudief
he whispers, in the hope of getting into q
saloon in which he can rest his arm.
81 never touch it." she replies.
He would like to change hands first rate
but he doesn't want to admit his misery. He
feels so weak that his shirt sticks to his bact
and his collar seems to evaporate. His hear
beats like the minute hand of clock. FL,
braces himself, and actually uses his feet Il

lets her take it and puts his hand in his Goa

own weight.
When they go out together now she hold
the parasol. He lets her do 1t, too, for the.

never been in print, and was told In con-
fidence by the actor himself few weeks be-
fore he died. Billy Otis was, to use Laura
Kesne's own expression. the best Lord

good opinion by a profound regard which
seemed after her death to pass into rever-
ence for her memory, 1t was he who, when
hardly more than mere boy, carried the
invitation to President Lincoln to attend
the theater on the fatal night of the assassi-
nation.
Before his death, which occurred not far
from four years ago, he left the stage and
gave Rotations, repeating whole plays and
carrying all the parts along, as well as CIV
ing shorter representations, reproducing
even the manner of Laura Keene and other
actresses, without unnatural affectation and
with wonderful power. L once heard him

HOTEL AT LAKE, Aug. 16.-Many of your
readers are familiar with the beauties and
grandeur of Lake Maxinkuckee, situated in
Marshall county. II miles southwest from
Plymouth, and many more would, doubt

roundings, could they have the opportunity

to mean ''clear water" 'stony bottom"

Indiana, / am unable to say whether or not
any OF these translations are correct. The
lake is three miles long by two and one

fusely covered with q thick growth of natu-
raj shade, and the shores are amygdolited
with every variety of pebbles, nearly the
entire distance around the lake. The water
is clear as crystal; and when not disturbed
by the wind the bottom may be distinctly
seen to the depth of 10 or IL feet. It is al
most entirely free from grass, weeds and
debris usually found in lakes of its size.

Benj0mlntF. Foster, who was mainly instrumental
III securing the decision, says.
This decision will affect an enormous interest
all over the country, the registration of trade
marks and labels in the Government Office In
Washington has been immense. think there are
large number OF indictments now pending in
different parts OF The country awaiting this very
decision, II Will of course become necessary now
70 abandon them. The practical result OF the
decision is to abolish criminal proceedings against
those who infringe upon the trademarks Of
their neighbors In business. IL does not,
however prevent injured parties from suing
for damages either in the United States courts In
the courts OF this State. These courts are now.
they always have been, open to civil suits for dam
ages, Hitherto IL has been believed by those who
registered their trademarks that any infringement
was met with heavy punishment-a fair enough
belief considering the plainness Of the language
employed in drafting the law. The perplexing
thing about this decision TO the Government Is
that n series of treaties have beon made
with foreign countries protecting those residents
who registered their Trademark III Washington,
and now the Government is unable TO protect
them. The value of registration is also much
impaired, for about the only privilege which
II affords proprietofs is TO pay the Government
$50 for certificate of registration Grim
in0l proceedings however, mny still be taken
under the law Of this Snte. which fixes the penalty
for infringement Mt imprisonment for six or twelve
months or the payment Of q fine Of 5000. The
state law however has been very loosely drawn,
and 1t is very defective. Its administration has
been almost barren Of results, and It's value is
trihlng. have no doubt, however, that an action
for damages, If It DO well founded will yield re-
suits to those business men who undertake It,"
