1t has been estimated that be-
tween 100000 and 10000, 900
persons in the United States take
a vacation every summer. They
spend between 100000, 600, and
$500, 900, 900 yearly in pursuit of
pleasure. This is a great deal of
money to spend during a vaca-
ton, but this season the expen-
diture per capita may be some
what less on account of the low
railroad rates offered by the
Chicago, Milwaukee & st. Paul
Railway.
From July l to ID this line will
sell tickets to Colorado and re-
turn from Chicago for $25. This
will enable many to enjoy their

Of deputies at the jail There is no
doubt but that this negro would have
been lynched but for the announce

here from Manchester. did not identify
him as the negro who had called at
the home of Mrs. Mary Griffin shortly
before the assault on the Kaisers, and
none of the other neigbbors could
identify the prisoner.
