Gone 10 Pieces,

The Ideal Comedy Company went
to pieces, in this city, las, Saturday,
three members going to Boise, and
the Others leaving for Bellevue, where
they intended showing in the evening.
Those who cot away did SO BY
pawning watch, a suit of clothes,
and an overcoat, respectively.
The company played two nights
here. The first night to an $50
house, the second night to a $50
house. This would have enabled the
company to at least reach Boise, bu,
for the fact that it played to poor
business for a week and was snow
bound before coming to HALEY.
These mishaps took up their available
funds. and left some bills to be paid
out OF the earnings a, HALEY.
Dolly Dimplr's little white bull
pup turned up missing here, and could
not be found. Somehow or other
actresses dogs seem to take a sudden
and unexplained fancy to HALEY, as
none we're ever known to get away
from here. The result, can be seen il,
the unusually fine assortment of
blooded ours seen on our streets, MANY
of which like the Gordon settlers and
Dilley pointers--are really prize pups.

Young Peoples Bible.

The "Plctorial Self. Pronouncing
Young Peoples Bible" is the title of
a new subscription book just pubs
lished by the Dominion Publishing
Company, of Seattle, Wash. 1t is
entirely novel in its conception, and
will prove valuable addition to the
literature of the day; especially that
which is ADAPTED to the use of young
people. Although the phraseology Of
the Bible itself is preserved, 1t is ar.
ranged in the form Of a narrative in.
stead of in chapters and verses, and
will cons quently be read with much
more interest by those for whom it is
specially designed. 1t is an entirely
new plan of Il Bible for the young,
aud will satisfy the heart and judg.
ment Of those for whom it is pre-
pared. Certain passages in the
Bible that are entirely unfit fer chill
dren to read, are left out, and b, sim
ply emitting most Of the long, hard,
and dry d. tails Of the Mosaic laws,
the sad lamentations and denuncia
tons OF the Prophecies, the deep the
ology Of some OF the Epistles, ard the
myst, ries of Revelation, the beautiful
chain of fascinating Bible narre tives
running through the whole Scriptures,
remains in this Young Peoples Bible
in bold type. The absolute necessity
in ch;liren's ks-ilustrations-
has been amply supplied, for there are
hundreds Of some Of the finest Bibli
cal engravings, many of them being
full-page colored plates, which have
ever embelished book of this de-
scription.
That the work is possessed of the
highest possible merit is borne out by
the fact that introductions to it have
been written by such eminent Dlvines
and others as the Rev. John Hall, d.
d., Lid, Pastor OF the 9th Avenue
Presby terian Church, New York
Rev. S. NJ. Merrill, d. d, LID.
Bishop of the Methodist Episcopal
Church, Chicago; Hon. J. l. NJ. Curry,
DID,, LII d., ex-Minister to Spain:
and the Rev. Charles II. Spure eon
Pastor of the Metropolitan Taber
nacle, London, England.
The book, which contains over zoe
large pages of crown quarto size, and
is only just from the press, will be
sold only by subscription, and we pre-
dict that before six months have ex.
PRED, nine out OF every ten famili..
in the United States will be possessed
OF cory Of it.
