Stole a Bicycle.

Sheriff ]. G.. Stallsmith, of New
Lexington. o., came to Beverly last
Saturday and invoked the assistance
of Marshal Beebe in arresting James
Ramsey at Mill Run, Just across, from
Roxbury, for stealing bicycle from a
Mr.. Hatfield at Corning, O., some
months ago. Mr. Ramsey is also
accused of borrowing horse from Mr..
Butts, which he brought over here and
sold to Clarence Palmer for s15, and he
in turn traded the horse to Frank Cody
for wheel. The two officers went
after Ramsey Saturday afternoon and
arrested him on the road near Mill
Run, and Sheriff Stallsmith took him
to New Lexington on the afternoon
u. & o. train. Mr.. Ramsey formerly
lived over the river and is we'll known
hereabouts.- Advance.

Billie Lester,s Comedians

A very meager audience settled itself
into the chairs at the Auditorium last
night to see and hear Billie Testers
comedians. We don't know where
Billie's comedians were-or, possibly
Thursday is not their night for comedy,
for that feature of the show was not
one constant sparkle. A geniusly good
part of the performance, however, was
that in which the troupe of Japanese
took part. A very clever body of little
folks they we're, and they executed
many novel and startling things
worthy anyone's attention. Their
costumes were something marvellous
and contributed very considerably to
the picturesqueness of their perfor-
nance. The management offers q
change of programme for tonight.
