1t is said number of women strang-
ers have been in the city several weeks
going from house to house taking pic
lures, whose actions look suspicious in
asmuch as they have several stories to
tell in explanation of the object of their
taking the pictures. They only photo
graph children. TO some parents they
state that they desire photograph of
one child in each family for the purpose
of an exhibit at the county fair in the
fall. To others they intimate that the
school board has ordered the pictures
to be taken. We understand their
methods are to be investigated.

wood, was in the city Saturday fore
noon for few hours and intended
going to Marshfield at noon. While in

He did not give their actions much
thought at the time but just as the
train was ready to pull out he found
that his pocket book containing 49,
had disappeared. He did not board
the train but came up town and report
ed the matter to the police. 1t is very
likely that the two fellows he sought
got on the train and went west.
Mr.. John J.. Kennedy, comedian of
the'Kennedy Stock Co., who commences

Monday night, June 81, comes of a fami-
