evening, and it was i'm th, main an
exceedingly well pleased audience
that went away at the c..usr of the
two hours entertainment And in
saying that last we are ;-c good
deal for the entertainer 'or efOcu-
| tionary entertainments q draw
like they used to. So ,,s they
seem to have gone out o: .hion and
people class them along with ''magic
lantern" shows, and similar relics of
a simpler and ruder age. So it has
come to pass that, as a rule, the elo-
cutionist's audience is small and his
applause scant. None of these things
apply though, in a report of the event
of last Thursday night. To begin
were good literature that cannot be
ing. And they were given, i'm the
Professors "Roger and u was es-
gecially vel! done, while Miss Ham.
ll's "Bobolink" and "Bugle SOng'
were the best we ever heard. Miss
Ella Cowan gave variety to the enter
tainment by reciting "Laska" in a
manner which won much applause.
County Attorney Ewing was engag-
ed Friday and Saturday i'm taking
| testimony against the original pack
age men, and on Monday he ordered
their arrest for violation of the prohib-
itory law on 13 counts each. One of
the men had already left the city be-
fore the warrants were issued, but the
other, NJ. Block, was arrested and, i'm
default of 81 900 bail, was lodged i'm
the county jail. The next day men,
ber of the firm, for which Block is
agent, came down from Kansas City
with an attorney and they spent Tues
day and Wednesday trying to find
somebody to 60 on Blocks bond, but
without avail. On Wednesday the
attorney prepared a petition to Judge
Stillweil for a writ Of habeas corpus,
and it will probably be heard before
the Judge at Erie to-day. In the
meantime the original package house
is locked up, and the original package
agent is in the same interesting per-
dicament. :srhe rocks I'm the road have
begun to put in their appearance.

and populations are largely engaged
in the manufacture of Bronze and
Brass lamps: Meriden, 1000; Water
bury, 10000; Birmingham and Anson-
ia, 90 900; Total, 1000 people. The

Purson Peterkm: The bitterest
enemies I have are those who were
once my friends and who injured me
without a cause. So that now when |
a friend shows me enmity know at
once he has done me wrong, or thinks
he has. 1t is comparatively easy to
forgive a man who has injured you;
but very few men seem able to forgive
a man they have injured.
