ATTEND
The Assembly At The Park
This Year
May Assure Future OF The
Assembly

Mt. Vernon wanted the Hiawatha
assembly continued this year, and all
were glad when 1t was announced
that the management had decided to
accept the offer made by the men who
had leased the park in order to keep
the great summer meetings here.
All would be more than pleased IL
they knew that the assembly would
be continued for years to follow this.
1t is possible to realize this very wish
simply by giving the patronage that
1t deserves. Supt. Rose states that
even now the management is looking
forward to 1911, and that IL this years
patronage warrants 1t the assembly
will be enlarged in several ways the
coming year. He does not believe
that the program could be improved
In quality over what is offered this
season, but has in mind some new
features that will make this assembly
ly the leader of all in the state and
bring more people from distance
than heretofore.
Despite the fact that the program for
this year is costly one, the manage
ment has decided to retain the old
prices forMt. Vernon and Knox coun-
ty patrons who get into the ticket
buying early. Most chautauquas have
| increased prices this year, but the
local management has decided to risk
the old figures and will sell season
tickets at $1.5O for the season. At
the gate and tickets sold by Supt
Rose will cost 81, but to Mt. Vernon
and Knox county people the $1.50 rate
will be maintained, making the high
priced talent for afternoon and even
ing entertainments, not counting the
pleasures and benefits of Bible lee
lures, Sunday school study, etc, ct
al, cost season ticket buyers scarce
ly 10 cents each.
At this figure not less than 1000
tickets ought to be sold in the city
alone. This mark is low rather than
high, everything considered

ing house on East High street. On
Friday morning neat appearing man
sought board and lodging and stated
that he wanted to secure a room to
occupy until Saturday evening. Mrs.
zimmerer, suspecting nothing, assign
ed him a room where he placed his
stock of china cement, which he pro-
fessed to be selling over the city. He
ate his dinner and supper at the
boarding house and appeared to be
a very pleasant person. Just after
supper, he went into the parior with
some children with the pretense Of
looking at some books. 1t is thought
that at this time, when no one was
looking, he slipped into a bedroom
and secured Mrs. Zimmerer's pocket
book, in which was large amount of
money. At any rate, when the pock.
ct book was sought for, it could not
be found, nor could the china cement
peddler be found. In addition to max
ing away with the money, he did not
settle for his room and board

Mrs. Demrick, who is in charge or the Aihambra hotel. has two little boys who are live wires. They are at the age when questioning is their principal stock in trade. and they are adopts in the art few days ago when Captain Palmer was here for the purpose of inspecting Company D, he stopped at the Alhambra. and no sooner had he taken a chair in the lobby than the soldiers uniform and the dignity of the man struck the youngsters as something different than that displayed by travelling men. Are you a soldier| asked one of the youngsters. Yes. replied Captain Palmer, and he blushed little as he looked around at the group of men in the office, who were evidently becoming interested in the inspection. Do soldiers kill people?' was the next question to which the captain replied, Sometimes" Are you a soldier all the time?" was the next interrogation that followed imme- diately and the officer doubtless saw that he was being led into trap by such ruthless questions, and he changed the subject with the young sters to something more commonplace than killing people.
