1t may interest the boys and girls to
know that fire crackers are to be scarce
next Fourth of July all over, the
country. The June supply is 1000,
600 boxes, or less than one half the Gus

the cause of the deficiency.
Young men, who cannot find any
better employment than walking about
the streets after dark and throwing to-
bacco guilds and eggs at windows and
buildings, need to be looked after. They
should be kept closer at home. Main

willing 10 run on such conditions, the
crowd was disappointed in not witness

and demonstrated to the satisfaction
of all that he knew how to run. He
will remain here for several days with
the hopes of getting up a good race.
He claims to have lowered the world
record for four miles.
During the session of electric ligh,

to the dynamo was being discussed.
One OF the strangers, who protested to
be an expert, we are Informed, held
that such thing was impossible, and
would not believe the statements of our
local men on this point. He had hard
~ announced his disbelief, however, be-
fore the light went out. and upon going
to the station they found the condition,
represented by the local people, to be
only too true. There was no longer any
room for doubt, and the men we're
forced to be convinced against their
will.
