Veosey, the Hungarian child violinist,
was lost in Cleveland nearly an hour

mysteriously disappeared.

find him and nearly an hour later he
was found calmly seated in big tour
ing car in front of his hotel where he
was sounding the "Honk. honk" to
his great delight. He made friends
with the driver.
The policeman who found him ad
vised the parents not to spank him.
Hes a bright lad with musio, he is"
the cop said, but he likes to play like
other youngsters.

minor MATTERS
OF INTEREST

J. V. Gillaspy yesterday In getting
ready for street paving tore up the cob
bled gutter in front Of his hotel at the
corner of Mill and Front streets. On
this cobbled gutter hangs tale, Mr..
Gillaspy being in possession OF reli-
able information which shows that 1t
was the first cobbled gutter LAID IN
DanviIie. The late BenjAmin Rhodes,
ESQ.,, whose father owned property
on the present site of the hotel in 1929,
is the authority. Mr.. Gillsspy, who
has owned the property for much over
thirty years, puts full confidence IN
the statement. he says the gutter un-
derwent no changes during his owner
ship and thinks it may have lain for
seventy to seventy FIVE years. The gut
ter was no doubt wellenough laid,
but the stone selected were OF heavy
ungainly sort which would hardly be
used for such purpose at the present
day.

A Cumberland Valley farmer hit up
on novel plan to prevent a railroad
company from laying its tracks upon
his ground. He hedged his land with
flag poles, from each of which foated
the stars and stripes. Then he defied
them to tear them down, and up tC
this time they have not molested them,
although extensive improvements are
being held up by the action.

Are due TO indigestion Ninety nine OF every

heart disease, not organic, are not only
traceable TO. but are the direct result OF indi-
gestion. All food taken into the stomach
which fails Of perfect digestion ferments and
swells the stomach, putting il up against the

instructive lectures that the Auburn people have heard here in many years. The scientific principles upon which his lecture was based were forcibly H. lustrlted by stereopticon views.
 Recently the college has been visited by several members of the Board of Trustees. During the past week Judge N. D. Denson of Lafayette, Hon. T. b. Sanford of Opelika. and Dr. T. H. Fra zier of Mobile have inspected the la boratories and shops. Provision has been made for the accommodation of all students present in regard to lecture rooms and all of the professional la horatories in chemistry, electricity, civil engineering, mining engineering and pharmacy. The congestion at present is in the lower sections in mechanic arts.
 It will be an interesting fact to many to know that the old study hall or chapel in the main bt ilding has fallen a victim to the wave of progress and prosperity and will be divided into reading rooms and lecture rooms. It Is an historic spot and has been the scene of many a confab between old Auburn men.

 This melodrama came very near going wrong. The villain, in the sixth act, was to be shot by twenty soldiers, and the muskets of the soldiers, through some oversight or other. were not loaded. The whole scene would have fallen flat had not the resourceful and ready villain saved the day.

 'The breathless assemblage. as the captain gives the word 'fire,' hold their breath, expecting a deafening detona- tion. But all they hear Is the feeble click. click of tile falling hammers of the unloaded guns. They look about ready to laugh. ready to hoot, ready to boo.f
 But the villain saves the day. First with a blood-curdling howl. he attracts the audiences attention to him. Then he staggers. falls heavily, and throws his arms and legs about like one in the agony of death.

This horid Italian masterwork with its exquisite melodies and powerful dramatic story Is the chief new production in the company's s repertoire this year, next to "The Val kyrie" the first production of which will not go on until the company reach es Boston.
 "Rigoletto' gives Joseph Sheehan his opportunity to introduce the golden top notes that has made him famous as a high c tenor, while Winifred Con has picturesque part in the title role. where he is the hunch backed court jester. Gertrude Rennyson was the charming Gilda. Mme Melba's favorite role, and Rita Newman appeared in hne voice as Maddalena. The scenic pro- duction was ha 1dsome and the orches- tra under Conductor Emanuel shared in the curtain naising honors at the close of the opera.
 The tenth season of the English Grand Opera Company opened lastsweek with 6 revival of Aida" that introiucei the magnetic Mime. Serena in the title role.
