excellent civil servants. Here Is a

There's a refnarkabls "thimble"
Il the Massachusetts, statehouse.
Major Charles G. Davis, the ser
gcant-at-arms, keeps it as his rare
treasure, close hidden in the drawer
Of hio desk. Il was presented to
him at the battle Of Kelly's Ford,
Va, when Major Davis was or
dered to charge with his squadron
into a patch Of woods where the
"Jodnnies" were lying concealed in
a perfect horseshoe formation, into
the bow of which the troopers
charged, only to receive a deadly
fre in front on both hanks and from
the rear. This particular thimble was
made from the heavy breastplate
Of the majors belt, and manufac-
turcd then and there. A shot
struck the plate squarely in tbs
center, at just about the pit Of ths
majors stomach. Out Of the saddle
he went, and for a considerable
interval lay dead to the world. In
regaining consciousness the major
felt sure that he was hard hit, but
there was no blood. A close ex-
animation revealed dark purple
spot Just behind the buckle, and Sc
we're abbrasion Of the outer cuticle,
but no puncture OF the abdomen, as
had been feared. When the plate
was picked up there was an inden-
ton in It SO deep that one may in
sert the tip Of his little finger and
wear is as he would a d1inble. Il
was good, stout brass, however.

often the case with most plays and

always reliable, that it alone has
lifted "Uncle Toms Cabin" from

sufficient scenery, people and rail
road equipments to place it among
the best entertainments before the
public. Stetson is the only one
presenting the drama as a FIRST
class show should be environed and
equipped And no more enjoyable
entertainment will be seen III the
local house than this. Over fifty
people are used in the production
and with its artistic mingling Of
mirth, melody and pathos, all
classes Of amusement seekers VIII
be entertained. Spcc;alties galore,
wonderful mechanical eifeets, new
costumes; a splendid orchestra, a
large pack Of Siberian bloodhounds
pretty little Shetland ponies, meek
eyed donkeys, mild and tricky are
ia evidence at every performance.
The street parade is said TO eclipse
anything ever given by a theatri-
cal company and contains a scene
Of professional novelties that will
delight every boy and gil and
make even the mature pause 70 con-
