The lecture Of Bob. Burdette
at the Congregational church
last Friday evening was one OF
the literary treats Of the season.
From start to finish the lecturer
kept the attention and interest
of the audience, the speaker
tracing the career Of the boy
from infancy to manhood and
bringing out his predominating
characteristics in such a manner
as only a Burdette could do.
However, the laugh was not al
ways on the boy, and the irresist-
ably funny pictures which the
speaker threw off one after an
other, were occasionally inter
spersed with views OF the more
staid side Of life, that could only
come from a combination o.
mind and heart working and
beating in sympathy with
humanity. The genuine humol
of the speaker carried every
thing before it, and he was ire
quently and heartily applauded

Waller stopped at Kempner's
ranch last Friday night. 1t was
a very warm night and the pris-
oner stepped out on the porch to
get fresh air, and he got more
than he ostensibly went out to
get. He got away. Three or
four minutes after Mitchell STEP
ped out, Mr.. Waller strolled out
on the porch to keep an eye on
the prisoner, but the shackled
bird had flown. Mr.. Waller
called to him and implored him
to come hither, but no answer
came back, neither did the pris-
oner. The deputy sheriff and
Mitchell played hide and go
seek. but while the former was
seeking, the latter. contrary to
the rules of the game, made no
rush for the base. The man be-
ing shackled, the deputy hoped
10 be able to re-capture him, but
didn't succeed. Mr.. Waller
searched all natural hiding plac-
es near the house, but all in
vain. Mitchell was charged with
breaking into the VIM. Dunn
hotel, at Custer, and taking
therefrom saddle and other
articles not his own"

destitute men from St. Michael. and will

they have been abandoned and viii be
