Pecls's Bad Bow,

Atkinson's Comedy Co. will pre-
sent Peck's Bad Boy at the Opera
House in Pulaski Friday night, IOth.
1t is called the greatest success and
funniest play on earth. What read
er's sides have not ached with
excessive laughter over the gro
tesque deviltrys OF the Bad Boy.
The play is a dramatization of the
famous Bad Boy sketches of Mr..
Geo. w. Peck, editor of the Mil
waukee Sun, has been entirely re-
written for this season, and is now
one of the most comical and enter
tanning plays on the stage. NoYh-
ing but pure innocent fun pervades
che piece from beginning to end
there is an entire absence of any of
the3 coarse broad Jokes so-called
slang of the day. The Bad Boy, al
though called bad, shows he is only
a little mlschievous and full of fun,
but has a good heart, and is really
one of the best boys in Milwaukee,
The Milwaukee Sentinel says sit
was the most thoroughly amused
audience ever assembled here"
The Baltimore Days says ''the
play throughout is ludicrously
funny"
The Washington Post says cit
requires no intellectual exertion on
the part Of the audience to appreci-
ate it to its fullest"
And so all the papers and people
who have seen the Company give it
excessive and unstinted praise
The players are of high repute IN
the profession and this is undoubt-
edly the best comedy combination
that is free from indecency. Secure
close seats if you would get a full
benefit, and loosen your clothes.

WHAT ABOUT ST. JOHN?

Did He Offer TO Withdrd,c From the Presi-
Dental Race for a Money Consideration
oThe following letter from J. S. GARRISON,
editor OF the Iowa Register and member of
the republican national committee. was sont
by him to the Chicago Tribune:
In reply to your direct inquiry IL knew
personally rs to whether or not John L. St
John offered TO withdraw rs u candidate for
president for a money consideration, ! can
answer now only rs the fact, without yet being
Mt liberty to make public the details. To my
knowledge. no did have overtures made
he offered IL paid $4,000 In cash, to withdraw
as a candidate altogether or to stay in the
field and Feather" his speeches. us IL was
put in the Kansan's phrase, to the help of
order TO prove the sincerity of his oner, TO
withdraw from Ohio the last week before
the October election In that state. He did this
under the plea, which he said he would give,
of getting soro throat, and, with the friend
have mentioned, went first to Pittsburg next
TO Philadelphia and Il ally to New York where
he hoped to meet some one on the part OF the
republican national committee who would BIO
ready TO make the deal and pay the cash. On
the 29th OF October, through ms friend. nd, IN a
have been carried by him In getting sore
throat one week for the benefit of the repub-
lican party. This letter and other facts of de-
tail, which will convince any fair minded
person OF the real character of st. John and
show to the country what thrifty Christian
he is, will be, gwen to the press whenever he
shall ask and persuade his friend, who was
the medium of his overtures, 10 give his con-
sent TO have them made public. | may add
that neither the national committee or any
one acting for 1t, ever made an overture or
proposition of any kind to st. John. All that
IL did was TO listen to and discuss the over
lures and propositions made to it through
the medium which he employed to reach 1t.
Several other members OF the national COM
mittee and some other gentlemen connected
with the Ohio campaign had frequent CONVEX
sstions with this friend OF st. John and are as
conversant with the facts and details of 1t as
myself. They know that st. Johns friend
was In constant Geographic and frequent per-
sonal consulta ion with him, and that things
which were demanded of ST. John as to his
NOV. ments in Ohio were pledged by that
friend and carried out by st. John In many |
ways. Ample evidence was thus afforded us, |
including he exchange of telegraphic CORE |
spondence between them and shown to sew |
eraI persons, proving that this friend was act |
ing with st. John aud under his authority. |
One other person is in possession of more
written evidence than have.

Four Lucky Men.

Four of the employees at A. Goebel
& Co.'S brewery have had stroke of
luck, owning between them one-tenth
of ticket which is said to have drawn
the $50, 900 prize in the Louisiana State
Lottery. Albert Mass, 305 Gratiot av-
enue, Lorenz Traub, 1919 Russell street,
VIM. Brommer, 79 Maple street, and
Benjamin Noes are the lucky men.
The official list is not yet published,
Mass having heard the news through a
dispatch from friend. They expect
to have it confirmed tomorrow. None
of them have made a habit of buying
tickets, but they have all invested two
or three times before. This time they
Clipped in one dollar apiece and bought
four one-tenth tickets, three of which
have proved blanks. They propose to-
put their money into house and lot.
Charles E. Strange, Randolph street,
near Fort, who drew share in the
capital 5000 prize in the same lot
terry in 1882, said this morning that
both he and his partner in the venture,
Philip w. Witzleben, clerk with K. G.
Dun & Co., then invested for the first
time. The lucky ticket was No. s., 1908,
of which they owned one-fifth. They
could not get their winnings through
the banks, as the latter refused to ham
die lottery money, but the express COM
pany took their ticket down and
brought the money back, $4,000 in
hard cash, for $40. He was then clerk
at Richmond, Backus G. Co. s, and went
into his present business, while Witt
leben invested in real estate. He still
buys tickets occasionally, and won $40
last year. They are the first Detroiters
who ever won prize in that lottery

These are placed on the stove and then

them. The stuff is boiled up and the re-
sulting stew is eaten heartily. They
say it is nutritious and economical,
