Last Friday night about o'clock two
strangers drove into Pappanee in COW

have any business in particular and they
left without notice, and not until the
following day when their doings be-
came know, did their visit cause COM

around that town would not leave home
for love or money for they had received
kilograms saying that they must stay
at home that day. as j. G.. Waite of
South Bend would call and see them.
After waiting patiently IL began to dawn
upon them that they had been swindled

ranging from 81 to 81 The two men de-
livered alleged kilograms from the East

telegram had charges for the telegram

Pauw college, for the benefit of the
poor. Miss Julia Conner, one of the
handsomest and most attractive young
ladies of the city, took the role of
Queen" while the historical and other
characters were taken by well-known
young ladies and gentlemen. The most
enjoyable performance closed by crown
ing with wreath of laurel the most
worthy OF the contestants. Mrs. Marc
Hubert as Mother Goose was award
ed the crown by the queen at the solicit
tation Of a score OF little tots. who took
the parts OF Mother GoOse's" children.
Quite q handsome sum was realized
from the performance, which will be
handed over to some one of the chart
ties OF the city at once to be applied
