Res olVed.

When the fact that Cluster Brown"
will be seen at the Emporium Opera
House, Thursday evening, Sept. 10th,
throughout our community there is
scarcely doubt that in many a family
there will be resolutions made as
strong as any made by the pen of the
prolific Buster" but the local ''re-
solves' will have the one subject mat
ter and that will be-ways and means
to be present at the fun dispensing visit
of the inimitable Buster as above
quoted. This season Master Rice
plays Buster" and to his credit be it
said that he is acturated and imbued
through and through with the spirit
that actuated R. F. Outcault when he
first lined Buster" on paperi Mr..
Outcault created an ideal Buster"
Master Rice has made him flesh and
blood affair exhaling hilarity, existing
Tor the fun of the thing and the cur
rent tour of Cluster" will see him with
all new stage settings and environ
ment, while the stage full of comely
maidens ever attendant will be heard
in new and popular songs accentuated
by most elaborate costumes, every one
new and up to the hour. Never has
so good an organization been seen in
this popular musical comedy as we are
promised and to the reader we offer
the happy suggestion, "Resolve" that
you will be one of the many to pay
homage to Cluster Brown"

Harry Thaw's Case.

The effort to secure the release of
Harry K. Thaw, the murderer, by per-
mitt!ng him to go to Pittsburg for the
ostensible purpose of meeting his
creditors, is scheme which should not
meet with the appreciation of the New
York courts. The public is not now
interested in the question of Thaw's
sanity. The public is concerned in the
enforcement of the law against all
offenders, whether they be rich or
poor. In the Thaw case it has appear
ed to be the purpose of his attorneys
to gain for him a leniency which would
not be shown to man without wealth,

stuff had again blew up. People look

Thompson and Fred Houber, two en-

shoot two oil wells and Houber was
the first to load up and was about

had been blown to atoms. 1t is the
same old story-no one lett to tell how
it happened. The magazine was loca-
