1t will be remembered that few
weeks ago we published an item in re-
gard to the arrest of one III. l.. Raymer
by the sheriff of Livingston county and
who was taken to Howell for trial. Ray
msr while here posed as n government
detective. He has again been arrested
at Hart, this state, for being drunk and
disorderly.
Richly illustrated" barely describes
the August Cosmopolitan, there being
in that great number one hundred and
forty.six different illustrations of all
sorts and sizes and not one OF them
commonplace or uninteresting The
literary features of the magazine vie
with the pictorial, the whole forming a
most attractive magazine for summer
reading.
At a special meeting of the w. @. L.
u. which was held at the Methodist
church Wednesday afternoon, Mrs. Mid
dlecoff of Paxton. III was present and
gave the ladies some valuable practical
suggestions for educational and mission
airy work. II is hoped that after the
summer vacation is over the work may
be taken up with greater vigOr, and
some new plans inaugurated, as the re-
suit of this very interesting meeting.
Quite good sized audience greeted
the Newcomb Concert Co. in the old
Pollaslzy hall last Wednesday evening.
The company put up as good an enter
tainment for the money as any company
travelling on the road. The musical
specialties of the younger children
seemed almost increditable in ones so
young. Mr. Newcomb is to be COM
mended for endeavoring to bring up his
family of motherless children so well,
and give them an education.

She was passing through the dark hall

This is the time Of the year when bank

not be supposed that because this show
has been made so enormously large that
any attention u the children has been
overlooked. Run, as it is, by the four
greatest circus managers in the world,
who operate and control the three big
gest shows in The world-the Barnum
and Bailey and Buffalo Bill shows, as
well as this one-the children are not
going to be the victims. Those astute
managers understand quite as well as
anybody else that il takes four or five
grown persons to take one child to the
circus, and what they want is the child

there will be enough grown persons 10
