this city for some time was that given
last night at the Garfield opera house
by the Kismet club.

ed on the stage and included the finest
OF everything The party was admit
ted by all to be a notable event.

Twenty-Five hundred delighted and

coined the opportunity 10 repeat the
pleasure. To those less fortunate the
music was a magnificent surprise The
! band has seldom been equalle6 and new
er surpassed by any that ever visited
this city. The repertoire embraces all
classes Of band music, and its interpre-
tation OF classic and popular music is
alike satisfactory. There is pure &C
cord that strikes agreeably on the ear
and holds the audience until the last
note has died away. The band in this
engagement has been strengthened by
the addition of the Hawaiian glee club

BRIpGEvILLE, Feb. l9.-William Daw-
son, an Englishman. came here last sum-
mer with the army Of unemployed" and
helped gather the fruit crops. Afterwards
he rented house with a piece of land at
tached for trucking purposes, and in one
corner of the lot a cave was utilized for a
dollhouse in raising flowers and other
plants.
During the recent blizzard Dawson spent
much of his time in this cave, closed in
from the storm by the glass that covered
this greenhouse. One night when the
storm was at its worst Dawson entered
the cave and, closing the small trap door,
he arranged to pass the night there. in
order that the fire should not die out and
his plants freeze.
When he awoke next morning and
started out he found the trap door and
entire greenhouse covered with drifting
snow. He was unable 10 raise the trap
door, and for two days he was confined III
this pit with very little to eat except what
he accidentally had left there. Finally
George Hill. who had known that Dawson
spent much of his time in this pit, secured
u shovel and soon had the man dug out.
young man of this town saw in New
England paper an advertisement, stat
ing for 10 cents u great secret would be
sent, by which anyone could live without
work He sent the required amount, and
received the following reply: ''lnSert an

then you can live as do, without work"
