1t was gratifying to us to hear an in
telligent and we'll informed gentleman
from a neighboring town speak i'll high
praise of the excellent fare and general
clever treatment one received at Mrs.
Edwards boarding house in this place.
He said he usually went home to din
ner but had found that he could save
half dollar by dining with Mrs. Ed
wards. She gave him IS cents
worth and charged only IS cents for it.
The bill of fare was all one could wish,
the cooking we'll done, everything
about the dining room neat and invit-
ing, and the attendants as polite and
attentive as could be. The mystery
was how she could feed so well for a
quarter. and our friend remarked that
he told Mrs. Edwards she ought to
charge at least so cents, for her dinners
were worth it.

Every town is whatits citizens make

Crandall, Clark & Hake's Min
atra1a

If there is one thing more than any
other that will draw crowded house
in summer as in winter, it is a first
class minstrel entertainment. The
Opera House gave ample evidence of
that fact last Monday evening. when
Crandall, Clark & Hake's excellent
troupe of minstrols appeared before
large, intelligent and appreciative au-
dience. The entertainment is deserv-
ing of special praise. One of the feat
ures, and very pleasing one, was the
rapidity with which one performance
followed another. The entertainment
was brimful of fun as could be made
they introduced many new comicalities
and kept the audience in perfect roar
of laughter throughout the entertain
ment. The singing was exceptionally
good, and the performance, from be-
ginning to end, was up to the highest
burnt cork standard. Billy F. Clark
and Mllt J. Crandall, in their special
ties, are both strong attractions. each
of whom was strongly individualized in
his own peculiar style. The banjo and
mandolin musical speciality of these two
skilful and finished artists was indeed
excellent. Herbert Hake. as a con-
tortionist and master of manipulation,
could not be excelled in any first-class
circus, which is supposed to be unsur-
passed in such performances. Edward
Dicken and the Ogle Bros, in their
singing, are both strong attractions.
Geo. NJ. Liable. in his euphoneum.
brought down the house. and evinced
a mastership and artistic skill In his
musical speciality, that deserves the
highest praise. The music is fine.
This is certainly a good company, and
one which will draw large audience
wherever it may appear. There are
no long interludes, but constant chain
of interesting, delighting and side-split-
ting performances. The company ere
ated favorable impression while here
by their gentlemanly bearing and ex-
amplary conduct. brunswick (Ga.)

HEAVY JUDGMENT.

Two or three weeks ago the firm OF
S. e. Olson & Co., Of Minneapolis.
brought suit against J. G.. Fowler to
recover the amount of three promis-
sorry notes amounting to S405 each.
The notes were given last January in
payment for goods purchased. Nc
answer was made to the suit and yes.
terday judgement to the amount OF
1924 was granted by Judge Sever.
ance
Mr.. Fowler has purchased a large
amount of goods of the firm from
time to time, and has always before
this paid the bills. The fact that the
suit was commenced during the cam
paign looked as though it was brought
at time to force him to pay the
notes or embarrass him inshis canvass.
On this account he thought he would
let the firm get the money the best
way it could.
G. Aultman & Co. took judgements
yesterday against Cynthia c. Davis
and R. ]. and Mrs. Powell for S127 90,
and against A. S. Davis and Mrs. Pow
ell for S524.45. These were on notes
given last January, which Mr.. and
Mrs. Powell guaranteed. No answer
was made to the complaint.

A HEAVY SUIT.
Lewis Eberhart Sues C. N. Nelson for
Breach of Contract.

Lewis Eberhart, Of this city, has
brought suit against ChaS. N. Nelson,
the Saltwater millionaire lumberman,
for breach of contract. He alleges
that Mr.. Nelson last month agreed to
convey to him his 4S0-acre farm in
Rapidan for the sum of $4,000, and
that Mr.. Nelson now refuses to do So.
He demands the conveyance OF the
property or $4,000 damages. The de-
PENDANT claims that Mr.. Eberhart
misrepresented himself when he ne
gotiated for the purchase of the farm.
The understanding was that Eberhart
was to take the farm at the price
on condition that he would buy the
personal property at fair price.
When the case comes on for trial
there is likely to be some interesting
evidence presented. III. P. Christen-
sen is Mr.. Nelson's agent and the ne
gotiations were conducted through
him. Mr.. Eberhart has retained G..
L. Benedict, and Mr.. Nelson has Sc
cured the services of Lorin Cray.

LIFE IN JAPAN.

Miss Whites address at the Presby-
terian church Thursday evening was
very interesting. She appeared in a
beautiful japanese costume and told
what she knew about japan. Several
denominations have missions there.
This puzzles the Natives, for they can
not see why they all have one bible
and one God. The missionaries do
not work among savage and poor
people, for the japanese are rich and
intelligent. Education is compulsory
there, and children begin at three
years of age to attend the kindergar-
den. The people are trying to take
on the civilization of the nineteenth
century all at once, but meet with oc-
casional embarrassmentS.
When travelling in the interior one
must have passport, although in the
coast towns it is not necessary. A
few years ago there were no railroads
in Japan, but now they extend from
one end of the empire to the other.
The cars are on the English compart-
ment plan with three different classes.
A first-class ticket is cents mile,
second class cents, and third class
about II cents.
She then described several japanese
cities and temples, of which there
are great many. Buddhism is RO-
man Catholicism with Christ left out,
so when missionaries of that denOmi-
nation first came to Japan they found
it no difficult task to find converts,
About two hundred years afterwards
traces of the early Roman Catholics
were seen quite frequently, and occas,
ionally some family in which the faith
had been secretly handed down,
The Japanese are curious about the
ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS differences in this
country.
She also said that Buddhism hao
gained somewhat of foothold in oul
own large cities.
All present felt that the evening
was pleasantly and profitably spent.

MIR. WILKINSON'S EXPLANATION

Ex-senator M. S. Wilkinson, of
Wells, was in the city Saturday. When
asked how he accounted for the land
slide he said: 81 consider it due to
the fact that the Republican party
has outraged and insulted the moral
sentiment of the people by the action
of Congress. After the people two
years ago had shown their disapprOval
of the Mckinley bill the Republican
Congress rammed it down their
threats. The Republicans have taken
the stand that other nations should
pay the taxes of this great country.
They act upon the principle that the
Norwegian seaman did when they
made excursions down the coast of
Europe and brought home the spoil of
other nations. They would make
this country no better than pirates,
making England, France, Italy and
Spain pay our expenses of government
instead of our doing it ourselves.
There is not an American citizen who
is not ashamed that the government
collects it's taxes from other countries
instead of from our own people. The
country might just as well fit out men
of war to prey upon foreign countries
as to enact tariff upon their goods.
The fact that we do not pay our own
taxes but make the countries of
Europe do it is revolving to the finer
sensibilities Of the educated class in

TWO CAN PLAY AT 1T.

1t is rumored that Byron Hughes
and c. H. Dietz intend to contest the
count of Tuesdays election as return
ed by the canvassing board. Doubt
less there were number of cases in
the law where the law was not COM
piled with, but If these contests
should be made it will be game that
two can play at, and the Democrats
will stand a good chance of losing
their two members of the legislature
while the contesting Democrats will
fail in their undertaking.

This shows that the Peoples party
is rapidly disappearing and. that the
Democratic members are the first to
go back into the old ranks.
The Prohibitionists cast only 329
votes on governor, which is a great
come-down from their claims of 1000.
That party is also rapidly becoming
extinct, the few Democratic members
having already gotten back into their
old party.
The loss in vote to the Peoples par
ty in this county since the 1890 cleo
tion is 100, while the Democratic gain
is 400 and the Republican increase
only 60. 1t does not take an expert
mathematician to show where the
great percentage of the Populists have
drifted to. They have returned to
their first love while former Republl-
cans have been left to bolster up the
sinking hulk.
