Action Dismissed

The case Of the village Of spicer
against DR.. J. F. Speed and John
Burke, who were arrested on the
charge of maintaining q disorderly
house, was. heard in Justice Ander-
sons court at that place last Thurs
day afternoon, County Attorney
Bitterness appearing for the village
and Attorney Chas. johnson for the
defense. The action was dismissed
for the reason that the complaint
drawn by the justice stated wrong
cause OF action, if any cause of action
was stated in the complaint, and other
mistakes made in the execution of the
complaint. A new action was not
commenced for the reason that upon
investigation there was not sufficient
evidence against these defendants for
violating the ordinance to warrant
the issuance of q second warrant.

It was the gener opinion OF those
who Witnessed the first entertainment
last Monday evening in the course
that It was one OF the best ever giveh'
in this city. Those who were not
present certainly missed q rare treat
both in the musical and literary line.
and the Dunbar Male Quartette and
Bell Ringers will always find q hearty.
welcome awaiting them in this city
should they favor us with q visit
again. Every number on the pro-
gram received such hearty applause
that the performers were obliged to
respond to frequent encores. The
committee having charge of this course
OF entertainments is to be. congratu-
lated upon securing such high class
attractions and the first one augurs
we'll for the success of the course. :5.s s:s

The Mail Order nesso seG the osltsr
That Never came Raek.

unoS W0v0f C0~0 D00k.
A neat little story is told OF q farm
er who ten years ago put his lnItials
on q dollar and spent it with mer-
chant in his home town. Before the
year was out he got the dollar back.
-Four times in six years the dollar
came back to him Tor produce, and
three times he heard of 1t in the pock-
cts of his nei. hbor. The last time he
got it: four years ago, he sent it to .
mail order house. he has not seen
that dollar since and never will. That
dollar will never pay any more school
or road tax for him; will never build
OR brighten the homes of the COM
munity. He sent it entirely out of the
the circle of usefulness to him.
There is. something more than
pretty little moral in this story, there
is ring Of truth that the most in.
credulous can't get around. There is
. practical example in it that needs
no argument. If the resident of the
small town would realize this and con-
fine himself IS much as possible to
his own district, Notwithstanding the
fact that the catalogue from his mail
order house quotes prices at an ap-
parently lower rate, he will be the
gamer. er.-F'urniture Worker.
