WINNER OF FIRST DERBY.


Sir Charles Bunbury enjoys the distinction of
having the first Derby. with a horse by the
name of Diomed. which shortly afterward

modest price of S3U0 Here its merits were.
however. appreciated highly than in the
old country, for only a few weeks after reach

$1,000, and died two years later on the stud
farm of its new owner. It would be interesting
to learn if there is any stock at present in this
country that trace its descent from this first
winner of the Derby The Sir Charles BunburS-
who vas its original owner married that Lady
Sarah Lennox who for a time was the object of
such infatuation on the part Of George III that
there are many people to this day who are con-

A NEGLECTED. WIFE.

1t is surely deplOrable fact that
many men neglect their wives, but
the saddest of all is when the neg
lect is not actual but purely mat
ter of imagination on the part of an
overly sensitive woman.
And the wife who accepts the at
tentions of other men under those
conditions is surely open to criticism.
However, such is the foundation for
a most successful play and the con-
ditions give rise to a host of funny
situations, an occasional tear of SYM
pathy for the erring wife and a hear
ty laugh as the story develops and
ends happily. The3e is not a NOM
ent in the entire play when the hear
ers' attention is not absolutely riv
eted to the characters on the stage
which are portrayed by an entirely
capable company of players. "a Ne
elected Wife" will be seen here at tn
opera house Saturday, Nov. 18th.

Congregational Church Decorations.

The interior of the Congregational
church has been recently decorated to
such an extent as to make it almost
unrecognizable as the same building.
The great expanse of ceiling in the
audience room, which was covered
with unpainted boards has been an eye
sore to members of the congregation
for some time past. 1t is now fes-
tooned with an artistic cloud effect,
and divided into sections by heavy
painted beams. In the center is a dome,
with dimly outlined angle faces looking
down. The sidewalks have all been
given a restful color, and even the floor
was not overlooked. The large loaded
glass windows have also been repainted.
Opposite the pulpit is a life-size
painting of the shepard seeking the lost
sheep, the subject being suggested by
the pastor, Rev. Thos. Barker, as the
true mission of the church. The Con-
gregationalists are justly proud of their
''new" church. Francis Stewart was
the artist.

foot to paint the outside of the building

a Bold Bad Man.

Since the robbery of the State Bank,
strangers in the city have been watched
more carefully by the police, and any
peculiar actions have been reported to
them. Tuesday night man inquired
for dark lantern at Sands hardware
store. A little group of bystanders
agreed that he was suspicious looking
character, and his purchase of dark
lantern confirmed their belief that he
was up to some mischief and needed
watching. Nightwatch Gordon was in
formed and Immediately called up his
chief for assistance. The man could
not be found however until next morn
ing, when it developed that he had
spent the night at the home of H. D..
Carpenter. His name is Harvey Seely

up here every season to hunt, and is now
camped with a party of hunters near

Mr.. Goodwin will assist in taking
out the remainder of "Dietz" logs
this winter. He thinks that they
will be taken to Winter and loaded

MORE HUNTERS

Conditions i'm the Woods Different
From any Previous Season.-But
Few Deer Brought i'm Vet

Deer hunting season opened Wednes-
day, with the weather fine and frosty,
and just a sprinkle of snow on the
ground. The woods, however, are
noisy and the game is shy. The fires
of the past summer burned away the
underbrush, thus destroying the hiding
places for the deer, but it also affords
a view of the hunter at a long distance.
So far no accidents have been reported
in this vicinity. j. w. Fritz. Ernest
