BABE HID IN ICE CREAM CAN
Two-Year-OId, Missing Several Hours
Is Found to Have Been
Busy In Store.

Galesburg, Mich.-Mrs. Jonas VII.
der, living two miles from here. Wis.
tied Galesburg, bringing with her a
bright little son, trifle more than
two years old. The woman had con
siderable trading to do, and while
her attention was diverted the little
fellow disappeared.
A thorough search OF the surround.
ings was made by the anxious parent
and villagers, but without avail until
accident revealed the child's location.
The disappearance occurred near an
ice-cream store, whose proprietor,
having an order for three gallons of
cream. but being short of receptacles,
had utilized a six-gallon freezer in
which to deliver the goods. This had
been standing outside, and when the
time came for its delivery a slight
rustling inside attracted attention,
and upon lifting the cover, there,
comfortably seated in the interior,
was the lost child, his face giving evI.
dence that he had been having a
busy time"
How the little one came to be there
is conjectural, but the fact of his be.
ing seated upright, precluding the the.
ory OF his having fallen in. the idea
prevails that some older child was
back of the joke. That the child felt
no fear Is proved by the fact that, al.
though provided with no spoon or
other utensil, he had used his chubby
hands to such good purpose that the
freezer was empty of nearly all the
cream.

A CRITICAL STAGE.

The city election now at hand is spect, than any ever held in Phoenix, which is now at a stage of progress never before attained. There is spread out in front of it a field of opportunities toward which it is rap idly and steadily advancing under a business management. There is also a spirit of improvement in citizens and property owners which has heretofore been unfortunately lacking This has been communicated largely, we be- lieve, by the character of the city government.
 The republican candidates are pledged to a continuance of this pro- gressive movement. The democratic candidates are pledged only to make a change-to do things differently.
 It is impossible to believe that any but the mossbacks, and they are hap oily growing fewer every year, are tired of the pace which has been set, and want to fall back into the old ways.
 Those who believe in a New Phoe- nix, vote for Christy, Stauffer and Marshall Those who believe that fidelity should be rewarded, vote for Diehl and Moore.
