VANDALS DO DAMAGE
TO FLOWER GARDENS.

1t would seem that there is enough
genuine manhood in a man to protect
flower beds from his vandalism. Flow
ers are lovely things, and should be
left alone, after one has all that he
can con%scientiously use, and he should
not destroy the plants that produce
them. 1t is not SO desperately wicked
to steal the blossoms. for they will
fade, but to deliberately go into a la
dy's flower garden and destroy the
plants is about as mean a thing as can
be imagined. Nobody but a depraved
wretch would be guilty of this.
A night or two ago somebody stole
into Mrs. Elmer Beltz's flower garden
and deliberately despoiled the plants
of their bloom INT then pulled the
plants up by the roots, thereby ruin,
ing them for the enjoyment Of others.
1t must be a low-born fellow that would
do a thing like that, and a good whip
ping should be his portion on this
earth. The next world will fix the pun,
ishment to suit the crime. He will
want his summer clothes.

A MODERN BAKERY
ON MODERN PLANS.

The Pope bakery on Grand avenue,
two doors west of The Republican Of
flee, is one Of the neatest and most
prosperous business places in the
block. 1t was started several weeks
ago, but was compelled to shut down
on account of matters unforeseen, and
the fact that the first baking after Mrs.
Pope returned was sold before it was
taken from the oven showed that The
work was appreciated. Since then II
has required careful watching TO be
in time to get any of the baking.
