only about seventy-fiye people out OF
a population of about $500 were there

Think OF 1t, Our town is probably
three miles in length; we have street
cars running from one end OF the town

is for the public good, they must not
be disturbed in their opportunity OF
making A FEW SALES. As cItlzen
of Benwood. and one who has its in

contemplated change will in any way
affect our interests, but will rather add
to the welfare of the town. If the gen

SILK POODLE
Presented to Maize King at the Grand
Last Night Passed Over the Foot
lights 10 the Littls Toe Dancer.


There was an event not down on the
programme. which happened during
the production OF Two Jolly Royers.'
at the Grand Opera House last night.
1t was in the second act, when Maize
King, the winsome and sprightly little
toe dancer, had gone through the grace
ful evolutions of her terpsichorean
speciality. She advanced to the foot
lights to bow her acknowledgment
in response TO the applause which fol-
lowed her dance.
Just then an usher walked down the
aisle with an object in his hand which
he passed over the footlights. It was
a beautiful white silk poodle. with a
broad blue ribbon about its neck. to
which was attached a card stating the
name of the giver, and the information
that his poodlets answered to the
name of Rags" 1t was real. live
poodle, and the Register man is in
formed that the use of the term ssilk"
is eminently proper when applied to
this canine breed.
Miss King forget her self-possession
for a moment. and stammered some-
thing in a really awkward way-some-
thing which could not be heard in front
OF the footlights. She had often ex-
pressed the hope that Santa Claus
would bring her a pretty little white
dog, and she admired and coveted such
an animal as she received last night.
II Santa Claus other name were re-
vealed, 1t might interest many persons.

81 DO NOT wonder that the boys
and young men do not make more
success in life" a Shawnee county
farmer was heard to remark. Sin
my days a horse and saddle was q
luxury, but nowadays every by and
young man in the country must have
a horse and buggy and all modern
equipments. The SO be pays for the
buggy would buy five good steer
calves and in two years these calves
would be worth $3.50 The time and
money he spends during the two
years would make the feed for the Eve
steers and buy as many more. In
four years he would have from $500
to ST. 900 in stock, instead of worn
out buggy and set of bad habits. 4"

fellow who is willing to take it,

Told In Few Words.
The life of one soldier boy is worth
more than all these islands

The life of one soldier boy is worth
more than all these islauds.'
The above is an exact quotation
from letter In last weeks Miami
Republican. signed by Capt Chs rles
S. Flanders, of Company 1. 10Th
Kansas Volunteers. Here Is the
ringing sentence from a fighter at the
front-a brave, intelligent young
man who, by birth aud by marriage,
represests a class that stands among
those of the best blood of Miami coun-
ty. He is republican, too. For six
months. with his brave men, he has
been in the thickest of the fight in the
Philippine Islands. He has gone on
foot over that desolate and sickly
country and studied its resources and
people. Between battles he has weigh
ed the consequences of the latter end
of the war begun for Cuban liberty
and the safety of our ships in Cuban
waters. 1.-The life of one soldier boy
is worth more than ali these islande!"
1t isn't the shout of Spectator or
politician; 1t is the deliberate ex-
preston of cooi-headed fighter. who
has endured hardship and faced the
fire of the Savage, sullen people,
half devil and half child. "-Paola
Spirit.

raising Capt Chevers did not participate; as
Jackson remarked to a friend, he had en-
barked upon another campaign" and
Cousin Harriet" seemed to be furnishing
a good deal of the ammunition.
When the events of the day were over and
the star-spangled banner foated from the
top of the tallest liberty pole in Miami
county, Capt. Chevers drove home, with
Miss Wordsworth as Cousin Harriet's
guest.
Everything is pleasant at Orchard Knob,
and the reader will not be surprised when he
hears that Tracy Wordsworth has decided to
prolong her stay among friends in the east,
nor that Capt. Chevers is looking forward
to happy future which he dates from the
last GLORIOUS Fourth of july"

THE CAPTAINS FOURTH.
Continued from I'd page.)

There's no danger of Harold's disgracing
the family name; that's something he never
did, and he used to be good at impromptu
who had taken his station alongside the car
riage for the purpose of conversing with her.
Judge Somers made a. rambling, but in
tensely patriotic, address to which the large
audience listened with manifest impatience,
for all knew that Capt. Chevers, just home
from Manila, would have something to say
and living hero is better than a dead lion
at any time.
BY and by the mayor of the village rose
and said, as he waved his hand toward the
captain:
Ladies and Gentlemen: We have with
us to-day one of the heroes of the late war
with Spain, gallant citizen whom you all
know, soldier who fought under the ban
ners of Dewey and who was the first to plant
Old Glory upon the ramparts of the enemy.
We love to honor our heroes, and this one,
whom Hampton is proud to call her own
because his boyhood days were spent in
this vicinity, we greet with double wei
come upon this suspicious occasion. Ladies
and gentlemen; Capt. Harold Chevers, the
hero of Manilat"
The applause that scared skyward would
have called bushes to Che cheek of an adj
miral, and the captains face crimsoned as
he arose, which was a signal for more cheer
ing.
He never knew how he started; for mo-
ment he was at loss for words, then, as If
suddenly inspired, he began to tell the story
of Manila, modestly emitting an account of
