The wonderful things The Boston
Herald has been dong for the chill
dren of New England reaches eli
max in the production of a country
circus with The Sunday Herald of
March 20, 1896. Unlike the old time
article, however, The Boston Herald
circus will produce every feature ad-
vertised. The old time pad riding
will be retained, but not at the ex-
pense of thrilling bareback acts. The
famous serpentine dance will be done
on horseback. Numerous funny
clowns will cut up pranks, and do
everything they should. High ira
peze acts will be given, and altogeth-
er the children have chance to see
the SHOW that amused their parents,
and parents can live over again the
the pleasures of the old-time circus.
Our readers will be more than wise to
order their Boston Heralds quite
early. The local dealer has had diff
Guilty in supplying the demand of late.
The Easter edition of The Boston
Sunday Herald will be published next
Sunday, March 29. 1t will show
newspaper enterprise at its best.
Eight pages will be devoted to ex-
quisite illustrations,i in colors and
half-tone. There will be poems and
stories suited to Eastertide, together
with all the news and multitude of
striking features.

nrcKin1ey's Acceptance.

Major Mckinley issued his letter of
acceptance yesterday. It is a very
lengthy document and strong through
out. 1t is plain presentation of the
issues of the campaign In simple Ian
guage, and an able defense of the pria-
ciples of sound money, protection and
reciprocity. The monetary question is
handled at great length and forms an in
vincible argument gfainst the free coin
age of silver at the ratio of 16 to /.
Other questions discussed are foreign
immigration, liberal pensions for soldiers
and sailors, the building up of the mer-
chant marine, civil service reform, etc.
The length of the document prevents
THE CHRONICLE from publishing it at
this time. It will doubtless, however,
constitute one of the best campaign doc
uments and be printed and circulated
by the tens of millions. The Oregonian
says of it in part: 'McKinley's letter
of acceptance will surprise friends and
foes alike. It discovers breadth of view,
intellectual grasp, power of clear state
ment. command of elementary princi-
pies, keen discrimination of the essen
tial, with which his admirers have not
credited him. He has been reticent to
good purpose, if he has thought out this
mastery discussion of public questions
while an impatient party has been clam
oring for him to break silence"

The residents of Mosier were alarmed
last evening as to the safety of Albert
Eben, who with his brother, Ben, has
been engaged in the fishing business
there for the past two years. It was
noticed he was absent and inquiries
were started, which resulted in ascer-
tanning the fact that no one had seen
him for several hours. He was last
seen on McClure's lake fishing, and
thinking he must have drowned therein,
the entire night was spent trying to find
his body by the alarmed ranchers. If
they had known the truth, that Albert
was comfortably snoozing in bed in The
Dalles, having come up in the night
without saying "nothin' to nobody, -
they would have saved themselves much
trouble and anxiety of mind.
