Is that In some cities Mrs. Potter's work
Is warmly praised, while In others it Is
severely censured.
With Mr.. Bellew the case Is different.
In no city which they have visited has
there been single paper which has found
the slightest fault with his acting, al
though of course. some comment Is made
from time to time upon his indisputable
tendency to pose. And, by the way, IL is

mirers in this country that he has never
got over the affectation of his younger days

Like everything else. cycling is affected
by the war. The use Of the wheel In mill
tary service Is not q new idea Az q re-

to be strictly limited to rapid scouting
There has recently been competition
for contract for bicycles for some lines
of hard service In the signal corps, and
the award was divided between two prom
inent manufacturers. It is intimated that
another and still larger order may be
given for bicycles to be employed In lay
ing wires along our seacoast as a measure
of precaution. This Is very probable, and
the proposed use Is also not new. A BIZ
cycle equipped for lay ing a temporary wire
was recently shown in Europe. 1t is very
simple. The machine carries a reel of
thin insulated wire which Is paid out be-
hind ms the rider moves. As be carries

Coasting down hill on bicycle is thrill
ing sport. whirling along at rapid pace,
with tho feet of the pedals, is an exhila-
ration which no writer can describe and
only rider can experience. Anything
which can furnish such sport Is sure to be-
come matter of competition. In recent
years number of coasting contests have
taken place. One enthusiast even predicts
that places Of amusement like Madison

On Monday evening Cartons Coined

talented and versatile aggregation OF

at the same prices OF admission. An OPP
portunity will be furnished the people OF

the miner or laborer who del, es down IN
the bowels Of the earth, and the house
wife who tolls and scrubs all day are as
much in need OF recreation and amuse-
ment as the banker, lawyer and business
man.
The higher prices have invariably
barred the one OF moderate circumstances
from his share OF the amusements OF the
day. bnt the managers OF Cartons Com
edians have removed this barrier and
placed the prices within the reach OF all:

Ephie Gilmore Steals

sheriff Brought Him Back.
Ephie LEFT n Note Explaining That He
Had q PressiDg engagement st
Home aud Needed Money.

Ephie Gilmore, erstwhile bicycle rider
ice skater and all.round sport OF the very
tiny type, is again in trouble and this
time he will probably get taste oil cop
per country justice which he will remem-
Der for a little time TO come. Ephie left
these parts for pastures new and green
yesterday somewhat suddenly and took
with him some small change which he
longed TO the gentleman he roomed with.
he didn't get very far in his travels when
he was intercepted by Sheriff Lean and
brought back 10 Houghton. He will re-
turn to this city this afternoon to an-
swer the charge OF larceny.
Ephie roomed with a man who had be-
come somewhat well known about the
city for the ability he displayed in play
ing on the harp and he was IN the habit
of sleeping in the mornings until late
hour. Yesterday when he arose from
bed about noon he found that some $14
which he had left in his trousers pockets
had disappeared and in it's place was a
note which informed him in very pretty
words that Epbie had.recci word from
home to the effect that he was wanted
and in order to get home he had to have
the cash which he borrowed" from his
very dear friend" the harpist. He did
not want to disturb him so he did not
wake him from his slumbers to tell him
about it,.
Ephie also helped himself to the very
dear friends valise and most all Of the
contents Now, the very dear friend
didn't look at the matter in the same
light as Ephie, and promptly went to
Marshal Beck with his troubles. The
marshal began to look up the case and
found that Ephie had been seen in the
city as late as IL o'clock IN the forenoon,
He telephoned the marshal at Lake Lin
den and the sheriff at Houghton to be on
the lookout for him. he also kept
sharp lookout at the trains, but Ephie
did not 60 that way. Instead he walked
to Lake Linden where he hired a rig.
This Marshal McKinnon was not long in
finding out and he started to chase him
up.
Ephie went on toward Chassell, but
the sheriff boarded the afternoon train
and captured his man on the road.
Ephie has had rather checkerei
career since he has been in the copper
country aud has been in more than one
scrape, but on account OF his youth, the
let him off easy, and did not
send him behind the bars. He has car
ried things little too far now, and be.
fore be gets through this little trouble he
may find him self where he will not have
an opportunity to edo" anybody else.

Many Drummers Here.

For the past few weeks travelling men
have been coming to the copper country
in large numbers and the influx has been
decidedly noticeaby, especially about
the various hotels aud business houses,
where they we're missed during greater
part OF the holiday season. A well
known drummer who comes here regu.
larIy said Yesterday who the number of
travelling statesmen that started out on
the road from Chicago alter the holidays
was larger than 1t had been for years and
the number that headed for northern
Michigan was exceptionally large.
The movements OF the Knights OF
the Grip are generally taken as indi-
cations OF how the busisess OF the coun-
try at large is and this year it is GER
tainly on the improve.
Many new drummers are making their
hrst visit to the copper country this
year and q number OF new business
houses are now represented here who
formerly did not attempt to get business
in this field. The Duluth. st. Paul and
Minneapolis firms are also beginning to
recognize that this part OF the country is
an excellent field and are bidding for a
share Of the trade.
All the hotels are crowded to their ut
most capacity with travelling statesmen,
principally. They are getting orders in
already for the spring socks.
