Old Firm to Dissolve.

After having been in business
together for the past twenty
years the firm of Peterson &
Hanson is to be dissolved just
as soon as the large slock can be
reduced and a big sale is now
being held at their stores in this
city and at Lake Nebagamon.
Matt Hanson is to retire from the
firm and will probably go to
Europe in the course of three or
four months. P. J. Peterson
will continue in the business in
this city but the store now locat-
ed at Nebagamon will probably
be closed out.

KEITH's THEATRE.

Probably the chief event OF the summer
season at Keith's will be the presentation,
by arrangement with Charles Frohman,
of Mrs. Leffingwell's Boots" which will
be the Afbee company's attraction for the
coming week. This comedy Is one OF the
most recent New York successes; and this
is the first time the play viii have been
presented by a stock company and at
popular prices IL is by Augustus Thomas,
Americas foremost dramatist, who wrote
Alabama" ARIZONA" and other sue
cesses. Almost every part Is a strong one,
the original cast having included almost
entirely leading men and women.
The scene OF the play Is laid at Larch-
mont. where Walter Corbin. engaged TO
Mabel Ainslee, IL the victim OF an unjust
suspicion through trick practiced upon
him by Dick. Mabels brother. Dick Is
mentally irresponsible as the result OF an
accident in a ball game. He places the
boots OF a Mrs. Leffingwell outside OF
Corbn's window at a hotel at Bar Har-
Dor. thereby arousing the jealousy OF Mr..
Leffingwell and breaking the engagement
OF Corbin and Mabel Ainslee. Corbin
knows who has placed the boots there,
but. because he is Mabel's brother, re-
frains from telling.
All this is before the play opens, and the
action begins at dinner party by Mrs.
Bonner OF the Larchmont social set Mrs.
Leffngwell has promised that she will
never go where she knows Corbin will be.
so ne is not invited. but he calls 10 use
the telephone. There ls big snow Storm
and several OF the guests are unable to
get 10 Larchmont. so Corbin Is prevailed
upon 10 All the place OF one OF the alb
sentees. Mr.. Leffingwell telephones that
he will be unable 10 get there On account
OF the blizzard, and Corbin answering
the call, his voice is recognized by Leff-
ingwell, who, knowing that Mrs. Letting
well is there, becomes more jealous.
In the middle of the night, after every
one has retired, Dick creates further trou-
BILE by trying TO break into the house 10
steal. but is caught by Corbin. Or.
Rumsey, an ardent osteopath becomes in
terested in Dick and treats him, event
ually releasing the strain upon his spinal
cord and restoring his mental powers.
Then Leffingwells jealousy is appessod
and Mabel Ainslee and Corbin become en-
gagged again. With the skill OF true
playwright, however, the author has kept
the real climax 10 the very last line,
when Corbin reveals who struck Dick the
blow that caused all the mischief. The
plot is unfolded with a wealth OF hilari-
Gus comedy.
The cast will include VIM II. Turner,
Miss Moore, Miss Reimer. Miss McCaull,
Robert c. Turner. Miss Wheatley Mr.
Ingersoll. Mr.. Losee. Mr.. Hilliard Miss
Evans, Mr.. Hull and Mr.. Churchill.

The NatioRs Wealth.

Few evidences Of the increasing
wealth OF the county are more strik-
ing than the growth of bank deposits,
including state with national banks,
shown in Comptroller Ridgely s report.
In 1896 the deposits were under five
billions. Last year they were ten,
and now they arc eleven billions.
From 1896 to 1900 there was gain Of
46 per cent, for the next four years a
gain of 35 per cent, and the present
figures are 1875 per cent above last
year and 130 per cent above 1895. OF
the nine years increase S598, 900, 600
was in New England, $2,961, 900, 600
in the Eastern States, and S545, ,OOO.-
900 in the South, $3.50: 900, 900 in the
Middle West, 1902, 600, 900 in the Far
West and 1897, 900, 900 on the Pacific
coast. Not less striking are the bank
clearings. In 1900 they amounted to
s48, 900, 600, 900; they rose to sl15,-
900, 900, 900 in 1902, dropped to $102,-

The Conference session ct Grenada
December GIL, was one Of the most
harmonious and profitable In the his
tory of the church. Peace, harmony
and good will prevailed. The preach
ing was OF an unusually high order.
the business was transacted with be-
coming dispatch, and the hospitality
of Grenada was OF that refreshing
kind that makes you think more Of
your fellowmen. Even the weather
was all that could be desired. The
appointments were largely satisfacto-
ry and the occasion will be remember
ed by all the brethren as an inspiring
one.
Bishop Hoss was kind, courteous,
sympathetic, patient, In fact, all that
bishop could be. Rev. Ben P. Jaco,
that genial, big-hearted, clear-headed
preacher, set pace as Conference
host that is going to be hard to follow.

name Of God is called, or someone
needs sympathy or help. Then he

Certain parties in New York and

SCI Udlll pdI UlcS III NEW OTk dIll
Washington are spending thousands
Of dollars per month in distributing
four-page supplements to newspapers
generally throughout the country
These supplements are delivered, ex.
preSSage paid, in the offices of the
publications, without any charge
whatsoever. They are absolutely free
to any publisher.
Tons OF paper are being printed
every week. and large amounts art
being paid the express companies fOl
carrying and delivering these supple
mentS, even as far as Texas and Utah.
Publishers have wondered from
month to month what was the cause
of such unprecedented lberality
nothing Of the kind ever having been
experienced before except during pO-
litical campaigns, when the National
Committees supplied and delivered
supplements without money and with
out price
1.-The darkey in the wood pile" is
now making his appearance in the
matter inserted in the supplements.
1t turns out that irrigation of some
arid lands in the Far West, for the
benefit of few individuals, the cost
of irrigating which to be paid for by
the United States Government, is the
object Of the supplements
Publishers to whom they are given
are expected to issue them with their
regular publications in order that
public sentiment may be worked up in
favor Of obtaining from the Govern
ment expenditures Of millions upon
millions Of dollars, so that these al
most worthless lands may be increas-
ed In value. and sold at enormous
profit for those interested.
The newspapers are to be made the
catspaw for this purpose. The pro-
moterS Of the scheme can well afford
to spend several hundred thousands
Of dollars largely contributed by
by few railroad companies and inter-
ested individuals, for, by so doing,
the United Stases Treasury might be
tapped for millions, and the people of
the East, South and Middle West
taxed in order that the owners Of
this arid land may be benefited.

In Behalf OF Childhood,

In the Southern states there are 60,
900 children from six to sixteen years
OF age, working in the cotton mills
alone. They have little holiday,
even at this season, and the working
day is twelve hours in most of the
states. Many Of these little ones
must work at night.
The National Child Labor Commit
tee, organized little over a year ago,
has already succeeded in securing laws
for the better protection of the toll
ing children in twelve of the states.
Our Southern states are behind the
others in the humane legislation.
Some OF them have no laws at all, and
no enforcement Of the laws they have.
In the meantime the very strength
and vigor Of our pure Anglo-Saxon
stock is being sapped by this system
OF working the little children. And
the children can make only the mute
appeal of their helpleSSness to be de-
livered from this slavery.
The National Committee, on which
there are twelve prominent Southern
men, has eSta abllShed Southern Office
in Atlanta with a Southern man in
charge. Funds are needed for the le-
gitimate expenses OF the legislative
campaigns now in prospect. Every
dollar given by Southern people will
be expended to protect the little chill
dren Of the South from the fearful
consequences Of early toll.
In the name fiHim who was born
a little child, and who loved the little
children, this appeal is made at this
sacred season for this sacred cause.
In the happiness of your own children,
think of the little workers at the
looms and among the spindles.
Contributions may be sent to Ma
tional Child Labor Committee, Room
604, Century Building, Atlanta, Ga.
In behalf of the children. In the
name of the Christ Child.

"fewer Gallons; Wears Longer"

The secret is out and Grenada can
go on living just as if the riddle had
never been asked.
No it can't. either. Grenada is not
going to be what it was before. It's
houses are going to be brighter, its
people little more proSperOuS-th they
are going to have some Of their money
left to buy other things with.
The answer to the riddle is this;
you can paint a building with fewer
gallons of Devoe Lead and Zinc paint
than with mixed paints, and it will
wear several times as long as build
ing painted with lead and oil mixed by
hand.
There's proof abundant of it all
over the United States. There will
soon be proof abundant of it in Gren-
ada.

Opportunities.

Many do with the opportunities as
children do at the seashore-they fill
their little hands with sand, then let
the grains fall through, one by one,
till they are all gone. There are four
things that never come back-the
spoken word, the sped arrow, the past
life and the neglected opportunity.
How carefully we should speak! How
eagerly we should seize every oppor-
tunity that comes to us! Are we sit
ting still, thinking there is nothing
to do and thinking that some one else
can do more than we can? Perhaps
they can, but that isn't right. The
Scripture says: Whatsoever thy
hand tindeth to do, do it with thy
might" Opportunities are the offers
Of God. Heaven gives us enough
when it gives us opportunities. Great
opportunities are generally the result
of the wise improvement of small ones.
If we think our opportunities are not
good enough, we had better improve
them. Remember we are responsible
for talents, for time, and for OppOrtu-
mites.
AS general rule those who have no
despiSe small ones, and
those who deSpise small opportuni-
ties never get large ones. Strive to
make everyone you come in contact
with feel better for having known you,
and If there are any shadows in your
life you will find them fleeing away as
the darkness disappears at dawn.
There is for everyone field to cul-
tivate and harvest to reap. II we
have worldly means consecrate them
to Christ. If we have eloquence use
it on the side that Paul and Wilber-
force used theirs. But if we have nei-
ther OF them we have at any rate
