again last Friday evening after an alb

the large audience he was greeted
with seems to be as popular as ever.

window and he remained in that con-
dition until 8 O'Clock in the evening
when he was awakened In the opera
house. The Prof's mind reading was
very good-especially the game of
Smear" His hypnotic work was
also very good and his class of sub
jects were made to do all sorts Of COM
ical antics. Those who want to en-
joy themselves should attend Prof.
Newmann's entertainments.

The most of US, especially
those who have dwelt long in
this vale of tears, have had the
experience of being entertained
in homes of refinement and cul-
ture. Have been in families who
were mice" in every sense of
the word. And in some of those
same families, we have met a
boy who was in every sense of
the word "A holy terror" and
as we have watched the waves of
modification sweep over the
mothers face, as she apologized
for freddy and his naughtl-
ness, we have been filed with a
desire to lake the young man
across our laps and apply the
palm of our hands to that Dor.
ton of his anatomy calculated to
receive the most punishment,
with the least shock to the brain.
The Hannaford Republican
Club and q portion of her bust
ness men, find themselves in the
same position. We welcomed
the advent Of a paper in our
midst, as marking a distinct step
in our progress. We recognized
that a good clean paper, would
be a factor in the upbuilding of
the town and community, and to
that end lent our support. We
felt that in town of this size,
the politics of the paper were of
minor Importance, in fact that it
were better to take no decided
political stand. When the Enter.
prise hoisted the National Re.
publican ticket, we were sur
prised. When he put in the
county ticket, we were still more
surprised, but were glad to
know that his heart was in the
right place. But alas. Sudden
", without any warning, he
gratuitously insulted Mr.. Glad.
stone. At the time we were at
a loss to know whether it was
q sudden development of non
comps mentis, or an attempt at
a josbing, but when he followed
it by an equally uncalled for at
tack on Mr.. Friswold, all doubts
were at an end, and it was felt
that the time had come for some
guidance in the matter, hence
the calling of the meeting of the
business men. We feel safe in
asserting that there was not a
business man there who cared
who the Enterprise supported.
Had it seen fit to support the
entire democratic ticket from
top to bottom, nothing would
have been said. Had it, from an
Intimate acquaintance of the
candidates, seen fit to support
certain ones from principal, or
from conviction of the mental
and moral fitness of the men,
then nothing would have been
said, but we did and do object
from its doing as it did-simply
for spite work-to being re.
presented 10 the outside world
in any such light. The pro.
position made to, the Enterprise
was, that it apologize to Mr.. Glad
stone and Friswold, and print q
straight ticket, either one or
the other. The Enterprise stat
ed in plain English, that if the
Republican County Committee
ad recognized it in any way
hape or manner, it would have
supported the entire county
ticket, but it did not propose
to be treated like q dog. Where
then comes the claim of ''inde-
pendence" Of the right to sup
port the "best" men. It was
simply a matter of pure spite
from beginning to end, was and
should be condemned by all
''fair minded" people.

.DOWIE COLONY

ELIJAH III SAID TO PLAN ESTAB-

Dowie's return. to Zion City started
discussion among his followers as
to the general overseer's plans for the
development of his work in the near
future
Those who study the ways of Elijah"
closely say that in all probability new
colony will be founded before the be-

timber and other products at first hand
and the stimulation of Zion industries
are said to be the objects of this aim.
From Dowie's sermons and from state
ments of his which have appeared in
the Zion City publications recently
it is thought that this colony may be
founded near the Gulf of Mexico, IN
| Louisiana. In this event the Austria
liam converts who would not be able TO
endure the rigors of a Zion City winter
would be the pioneer colonists, it Is

offers is said to be worth $1,OOO,OOO, and

FAIR RECORDED
FOR ALL TIME
MANS HANDIWORK THUS PRE-
SERVED IN OUR SUPERB ST
LOUIS WORLDS FAIR VIEWS.

Centuries ago fire, water and air
were made to do mans bidding, aiding
him in his primitive struggles for food
shelter and ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
Later on steam was added as a most
valuable auxiliary; then came many
discoveries and inventions in the peace
full arts, by means of which he was en-
abled to permanently record his
achievements.
In this direction, the latest and most
valuable of all adjuncts is photography,
for this wonderful art pictures the
very thing itself; no line or feature be-
ing varied by so much as a hairs
breadth.
1t is well for present and future gen.
erations that photography has reached
so high a state of perfection in this
year of grace 1904, when the great
Worlds Fair has brought together in
one place it's infinite variety of results
in the realms of art, industry, science
learning and religion.
otherwise, it is hard to conceive how
a faithful record could be kept or an
accurate history of the great event pre-
served.
All this. however, has been grandly
and nobly accomplished in the work of
the official photographer of the Expo
sition.
The best features of the achieve
ments of this tireless laborer and his
assistants have been preserved and are
presented in the superb Forest City
Worlds Fair Art Portfolios.
Whether for purposes of amusement
instruction. education or reference
these views are unsurpassed, and this
paper considers itself fortunate in be-
ing able to present such a valuable and
admirable series, easily within the
reach of the most humble.
There is no one who will fail to find
the views. with their accompanying de-
scription, entirely sufficient for any OF
the above purposes; and both the pic
torial and descriptive matter Is pre-
sented in such a way as to render the
inspection and study of the Portfolios a
perpetual delight.
Readers can't afford to miss single
number, and that this fact is appre'
ciated is evidenced by the regularity
with which coupons and dimes are
coming in for each part.
There is a substantial savings, too
since the regular price of each port
folio is 25 cents, but our readers gel
them for the nominal sum of 10 cents
to cover cost of handling, wrapping
addressing and mailing; which GER
tainly makes it very easy to obtain the

consignment of American products,
principally flour, lumber, and leaf to-

Washington supplies the bulk of the
lumber and flour.
The Kanagawa will have a fair list
of passengers, principally Japanese
and Chinese. On this voyage the Ka-

than Kobe, though considerable of her
freight is billed to Chinese ports,
where it will be delivered by vessels
plying between Japan and China.

RUSSIANS WHO
WERE WOUNDED
THANK JAPANESE ON LEAVING
FOR KIND TREATMENT IN THE
HOSPITALS

Following the three who recovered
early in April and were sent back home
five other Russian wounded at the Red
Cross hospital at Matsuyama recovered
towards the end of the same month and
were handed over to the French Consul
at Kobe, where they embarked on the
AMMAN for Saigon The eX-prisoners
of war, on their way home. were inter-
viewed through one of their number by
a newspaper representative. An in
teresting account concludes:
The men seemed disinclined to glory
in the scars Of war and would hardly
refer to the wounds they received. One
however, had a cash on the crown or
the head which although quite healed
told its own story.
How do you feel now?" they were
asked. They looked fairly well, though
somewhat haggard, and they evidently
felt very keenly the position in which
they had been placed.
I'VE feel quite well, but we should
like to get out of these clothes"
They We're most grateful for the
kindness that had been shown by the
Japanese author ties in rigging them
out" in japanese naval uniforms, but
they would doubtless have felt much
more comfortable in private clothes,
and expressed the hope that the Rus
sian consul at Shanghai might be able
to find them some Russian uniforms
There We're twenty-four wounded men
taken from the neutral vevssels to the
Red Cross hospital at Chemulpo, two of
whom died there. Those who suisse
quently came on the Matsuyama le-
manned at Chemulpo for twenty-five
days, during which time they were
treated with every kindness and con-
sideration
The men considered themselves as
prisoners of war. and were under the
impression that the wounded Russians
were brought to Japan as a kind of
security for those who were not wound
ed but We're allowed their liberty on
signing the declaration not to take fur
Their part in the present war.
OF their treatment during their stay
i'm Japan the men spoke in the moSr
grateful and complimentary terms.
We have been treated everywhere
as friends rather than enemies, and
shall always remember with gratitude
the kindness and Immunity shown to
us by the Japanese-the doctors, the
nurses and the people"
The tears came into the spokesman
eyes when he told our representative
how he had that morning pledged him
self not to fight for his country again.
He was he said, convinced that he
had obeyed the orders of his Emperor
through the French consul, whom he
knew to be representing the Russian
Government, but from his tone it was
plain that such an oath meant more &c
him than most people would imagine.
The men had received little news OF
the Russian reverses-such news is not
comforting for convalescents and the
authorities were wise i'm not informing
them-they had received letters from
the Russian priest in Tokyo, and were
delighted to have some old Russian
newspapers which the French Consul
had kindly given them. They proceeded
to Shanghai and do not know their ul-
innate destination.
The last Injunction on saying fare
we'll was, DO not forget to thank the
japanese for their Kindness 20 u.s.
