Captured on the premises Of Mrs.
G. Z. Grim in LaPorte borough, by
Larry Millmore, q genuine blue
racer with white ring around his
neck. This second cousin of the
Boa family was four feet three inches

claims of veterans without paying
any attention to his bitter enemies.

positively known that Mr.. Utz will
be in the field for Sheriff and will
make desperate struggle for the
nomination of the DEMOCRATIC party.

the party from which he seeks his
nomina ton be given as the gentle
man has been q good worker in sew
eral of the leading parties Of the
county and on one occasion came
out as an independent candidate for
Sheriff and was successful in his cleo
tion.
