CREAM OF NEWS.
Too Fast to Catch.

A tramp stole child's velocipcde
from Mr.. VIM. Cowan's porch one
night this week and afterwards was
detected in DR.. Hickman's back yard
and was frightened OF, leaving the
velocipede and several other stolen
articles. A number OF tramps were
arrested, but DIR Hickman failed to
identify the guilty party.
A Regular old-Timer.
As stated in our last issue, we are
once more TO have regular old-time
fairs in the future. The change is
certainly great improvement, moral
ly, and Il properly conducted, will no
doubt be so financially. II will meet
with the approval Of all our citizens,
and we hope it will receive the sup
port from all-the support and CO
operation Of the mechanic, farmer and
stock raiser-so that there will be no
question hereafter as TO whether il will
pay the stockholders, The people
want good fair, but in order to
secure it they must take an interest
in il and this encourage and aid the
officers Of the association in pushing
it forward.
The Christian Revival.
The regular services held in the
basement Of the Christian church
every moning are largely attended.
One OF the members OF that denomina-
ton tells us that il is thought IL will
be necessary to hold these meetings
in the auditorium, us the basement has
already proved almost too small to hold
the people who attend them. Elder
Lucas discourses, while more in
the nature OF lectures than sermons,
are exceedingly interesting and are
listened to with great interest, by
members of all churches and non
professors OF religion. The meetings
begin promptly at 1890 and last just
one hour.
We are authorized to state that Mr..
Lucas will remain with us during the
coming week. The night services are
so well attended that the pews will not
accommodate the anxious hearers and
the aisles are also filled. There is no
abatement in the interest of our people
or the earnestness and eloluence of
Elder Lucas. There have already
been several additions to the church,
and great results are expected from
this meeting.
