duced rates at the Queen City
Business College. This old re-
liable school has placed more
young persons in the business
houses of Springfield than all
other schools combined. 1t pays
to attend a business college that
has a good reputation at home.

sires to let the ladies know that

etc., in her stock here in Ironton.

will be sold low. Every lady in
the county who wishes anything
in the lines named is urged to call.

Carnival, numbering in all thirty
colored artists and a big concert,
will be here Saturday, October %.
Frank Mahara this season has cap
tured nearly all the old time favor
ties in the colored race for his big
show. Foremost among them is
Skinner Harris, who is profess

the greatest colored performer OF
the age. Mahara's big concert
band will give a street parade at
noon and a concert at 1880 P. M,
Prices, 25c, 35c and SOC.
What is more refreshing than a
real bright gingerly minstrel per-

clever dancers and superb vocal
lists, grand augmented orchestra,
all keeping time with the happy
jingle of the bones and tamborines
and a superbly handsome scenic
mounting and beautiful costumes
to set the burnt cork off with? All
of the latest innovations that
money could secure have been put
together by Mr.. Mahara and will
be seen at the Academy of Music
Saturday, October 2Sth. Prices,
25c, 35c and SOC. Parade at noon
and band concert at 1880 P. M.
