emergency. Young ladies of Wilson College
have volunteered to attend the camp, two
at a time. each couple staying one week as
volunteer workers. There are others from

Wheat Harvest on the Wabash.

One OF the most realistic scenes In
the great play, "a Boy Of the Streets"
which comes to the Grand on satur-
day, October 9th, is the harvest scene
in the last act. How many readers as
sociate some pleasant memory of
childhood days with the golden har'
vest time when nature is at its best?
The management carries plentiful
supply Of real wheat In the shcaf in
order to faithfully reproduce this
scene. We have the old farmer care
fully watching every detail connected
with the harvesting OF the gram, the
men binding wheat, the boy with the
welcome water jug and the pert maid
of.alI-work with the three O'Clock
lunch. This is only one of many nat
ural scenes presented afte" the thrill
ing scenes in the third act Of the play
which takes place in st. Louis. Mo,
during the exposition. 1t is a positive
novelty to have quiet, interesting eli
max to play that has caused laugh
ter and tears. Little BUbD;n Young,
Americas youngest star, will be seen
in the role of Little Bob the boy Of

uNNoTlcEp WAS PRISONER
FoReETFuL JAlLoR.

CHARLESTON, Oct. I. Postoffce
Inspector Hill returned Tuesday from
Huntington where he placed in the
cabell county jail, c. A. Bryant whom
he arrested in Bellaire, Ohio.
An interesting feature of Bryant's
capture is that in some mysterious
manner he obtained freedom from
the wiIllamstown Jail last August and
not until the case against him was
called in Huntington last week was
it known that he was out of prison,
The witness in the case had been
summoned to appear and when the
case was called there was no Mr..
Bryant aud it was learned that he had
been out Of prison since the middle Of
August.
Bryant is considered to be a very
smooth individual and his case was
to have been one of the hard ones
of the term. He had been accused
of sending worthless checks to whole
sale whiskey houses in Cincinnati,
Louisville and other cities and ask,
ing that the firms send him whis-
key and other liquors which was
readily done,
The inspector received word that
Bryant could be found in Bellaire
and went there last week where he
discovered his man in the Carnegie
steel plant but he had tried to dis.
guise himself by shaving of his mus
tache and dyeing his hair.
