separated by a removable partition,
making a room adequate for holding
the public exercises of the school
and such educational meetings as
may be need for.
The walls in all the rooms are
tinted so as to reflect an even light
and still be restful to the eye. The
windows give light into the rooms
from three sides with blind wall
for the students to face. Another
feature of the building is the base
ment. This was built without any
taxation of the district. Wide awake
citizens saw an opportunity for the
school to have this additional room
with little cost and went about the
task of raising the amount necessary
to defray the cost. The response
was generous and a basement under
the whole building is at the disposal

Cook, Killam and Decker, of Haw-

preached Woodside Lake on the op-
posite side of the cottage and before
we came in sight of the lake, we
heard some Of the sweetest music
we ever listened to. We thought
there were about twenty or thirty
people singing beautiful hymn.
We halted few moments to listen
and were so charmed we decided to
walk on and see those beautiful sing
ers, but as we came in sight of the
lake we did not see any one in the
boat, so we halted again and found
we had been mistaken as the music
was being played by a phonograph
on the porch of the bungalow. This
is a large phonograph with one OF
the large horns placed by Mrs. M.
in such a way that the sound came
direct to us across the water. We
have heard many monographs, and
good ones, too, but never enjoyed
one so much. The last thing we
heard on leaving Woodside Lake
was another beautiful selection by
the pho2ogrGph.

ent tissues Of the body. Loss OF appe-
tite, gas, heartburn and sour stomach
are warnings or symptoms that the
blood is impure and that, because Of IL.
the stomach is unable to perform ito
work.
To restore the conditions for perfect
digestion, il Is necessary TO purify and
build up the blood. This explains the
reason for the constantly increasing use
of DIR. Williams Pink Pills in all cases
Of stomach trouble. They contain the
elements necessary TO make rich, red
blood and have succeeded where other
remedies have failed.

10000 ATTEND
WILD WEST SHOW
Exhibition Well Up To Standard Of
Other Years-Clever Stunts
From Far East, Too.

More than 10000 Detroiters attend
ed the two performances of Buffalo
Bill Wild West and Pawnee Bills Far
East show, Monday. The show is up
TO the standard OF former years, and
but little changed. The performance
begins when Buffalo Bill himself. on
his handsome white charger, with his
long flowing snowwhite hair, rides
out and introduces his congress of the
rough riders OF the world. Then fol-
lows in order and riding like the wind.
full-blooded American Indians from
the western plains, Russian Cossacks.
Turks, Japs, Arabs and representa-
tives of a dozen races from the far
east. This spectacle is one which al
ways arouses the enthusiasm OF the
audience, and the applause amounted
almost to an ovation
But horsemanship is not all tho
show consists Of What wild west
show would be complete without a
stage holdup. This stunt the Indians
pull off in the manner approved by
such authorities as Dick Deadeye."
and other heroes of the 10-cent yellow
back. And the carnage was awful.
When the smoke cleared away there
were dead Indians. cowboys aud
ponies lying In all directions, but the
stage coach was saved, and the audi
ence howled with glee. Then there
was a train holdup. 1t mattered not
that the engine was built up wood,
end the hiss Of escaping steam was
manufactured by men behind the
scenes. 1t was held up by masked
robbers with shooting enough to have
captured Port Arthur. And again
Buffalo Bill and his trusty scouts were
victorious, the desperadoes being
driven away with fearful loss.
Always an interesting feature OF the
program, but not lew one, Is the
football game on horseback, in which
the cowboys and Indians are opposed.
AS usual. the Indians are defeated, TO
the great delight OF the children and
the regret OF the older people.
Equally enjoyable with the perform
ance of the Indians and cowboys, was
the exhibition given by the men from
the far east These horsemen from
the Asiatic plains seemed to vie with
the men Of the west IN deeds OF skill
and they were apparently as much at
home In the saddle as a sailor In the
rigging. An interesting feature OF the
show was the work OF troupe OF
japanese tumblers These little men
raced across the field turning somer-
saults 80 rapidly that they appeared
to be only circles of flying colQr. Then
there was the work OF the Australian
boomerang thrower. His exhibition
OF this difficult art created consider
able enthusiasm.

girls, fell from her horse when the

KONEN'S LEASE GOES.
Must Pay Agreed Rental for Casino,
Rules HurIbut.

Lessee William Konen will have to
pay the full $1,000 specified by his
contract for the use OF Belle Isle
casino this year. This decision has
been reached by Park Commissioner
Hurlbut after a thorough investiga.
ton.
Konen has complained that the busi-
ness at the island was not sufficient
to warrant him In paying such high
rental. Commissioner Hurlbut found
that there was no profit last year on
$4,000 rental and that business had
been worse this season, but as Konen
had made his bid voluntarily and
given a $4,000 bond TO live up to 1t.
the park commissioner did not feel
that he could revoke the contract.
One thing that the figures show is
that people appreciate the better
meals served. since more than one
third OF the receipts are from this
class OF patronage. II Is the lunch
counter business that has fallen of
in the new casino. Konen has been
advised to economic in regard to
help, he having had as high as 1l9
persons In his employ at one time
last summer.
II am sorry for Konen, but do not
feel that | can change the terms OF
his contract" says Hurlbut.
