READERS TAKE NOTICE.
The Review Will Change its Pubiica.
ton Day Next Week.
Hereafter the Review will be prin,

Hereafter the Review will be print
ed on Tuesday evening and circulated
throughout the county on Wednesday
morning. The date will be that of
Wednesday of each week. This is the
old publication day for the Review
for many years and we are simply go
ing back to the old system. The rea-
sons for the change are these: W.. be-
lieve that by having it's weekly
papers printed on different days the
people will have better news service.
Necessarily the news is much the
same for both papers and when the
two are published simultaneously both
lose interest to their readers. We
have chosen to print earlier in the
week for the reason that nearly all
weekly publications are issued on
Thursday or FRIDAY and the average
man gets an arm full of papers on
these days. We believe the people
will better appreciate paper that
domestic them when they have not so
many on Their hands. Further, the
merchants advertise largely for the
Saturday trade. by reaching the peo-
Pile early in the week the merchants
will get quicker and better returns.
The Review will hereafter be the
first paper in the week for the whole
county. 1t will have clear field for
the news of Saturday. Sunday. Mon
day and Tuesday. We have made ar
engagements with our correspondents
so that their excellent service will be
unimpaired and we would ask our adj
vertisers and others interested to bear
the changed date in mind. Hereafter
we will print on Tuesday evening and
the Review will be dated Wednesday.

HARD TIMES FOR THE M. E
CHOIR.

We do not believe thirty five peo-
pie ever had better time in their
lives than the ones who gathered at
the home of Mr.. and Mrs. E. C.
Chamberlin Tuesday night for a Hard
Time party. If the roof had not been
we'll nailed on, the peals and screams
of laughter that filled the whole even
ing would have waited the roof down
the Boyer. Carrots ragbags. and old
boxes had been ransacked to provide
costumes suitable for the evening and
as each guest arrived and confront
ed their tough looking host and quaint
old fashioned hostess the fun began
and held full sway. 1t was a case of
the beggars are coming to town as
each comical and clever makeup APP
peared. Strings were all the rage in
stead of buttons among the gentlemen
and Prof. Van Ness made great hit
with pair of suspenders worn as
belt over dressing gown Of the vim
tage of 40 Wild McAhren's glad
rags would make the King of the
Hobos weep with envy and U. G.
johnson and Mr.. Chamberlin would
have been run in by Lou Baer the
minute he put his eyes on them. The
ladies had some hats that beat the
band and one guest had red table
cloth for shawl that was greeted
with much applause. Mrs. Boyle and
Miss Allie Sewell sang solos that were
much enjoyed. Miss Lille Raine

Mrs. Sibbert gave a duet that was
very lovely. A game then followed.

FLOODED WITH MESSAGES
Before leaving the track Croker was
handed many congratulatory kilograms
and there was q batch of the same
sort of messages awaiting him in Lon
don. His secretary had spread them
all out all unopened on large square
table, the cablegrams from America on
one side and the kilograms from all
parts of Great Britain on the other.
Together they more than covered the
table, and hundreds more came in during
the evening. These messages seemed
to please Croker greatly. For the mo-
ment he became a young man again

the table picking out the Messages
addressed to her.
AS the pile of American cablegrams
grew, Croker, looking supremely happy,

that the space allotted In the news

would seem that the achievement of
the life ambition of the former leader
of Tammany Hall is not as popular as
would be expected with a people dis
tinguished for loving sport for sports
sake.
Some captious writer's describe the
event as the American Derby"
and others as "Croker's Revenge for
the snub of the Jockey club in refus-
ing Croker permission TO train at
Newmarket. The Express declares with
solemnity:
For political reasons Orby's owner could not
expect to receive the sort of ovation which
would have been accorded Lord Roseberry or
the duke of Westminster
