Alton Packard.

Alton Packard, who appeared at the
Normal last night, IS master OF his
art. a superb cartoonist. He began by
giving Uncle Sam, looking as big as
| life and twice as natural" Then he
marshaled before US, Uncle Sans sub
jects from the four quarters Of the
| Globe. each proudly announcing he
appeared before the audience, that he
was a citizen of Z. s. A. His represen-
iati0n Of the typical dude, decendent
Of Lord Help U.s. of England who
was also given in life size, wis true
TO life and brought down the house He
matched these with '.Dudeens" with a
good moral effect, especially with the
brainless Miss, who was making eyes at
Lord Help Us. His closing character
| ization and master piece of the evening
was what might be termed the magic OF
the dollar. With one great flourish he
described on the canvas the circle Of a
dollar. within this he first Drew the face
of the popular American girl, creature
of vanity and vice. She faded away I'M
der mist Of darl1ly clouded chalk and
there appeared on the scene young
man of noble. handsome countenance,
! full Of promise, sitting with pen in hand
under an incandescent light, W t h
thought and heart centered uIon the
almighty dollar, and money bags about
his table. With a few strokes and
touches Of the cartoonist, the facial ex-
preston changes, and we note with a
feeling Of sadness, as time goes on, a
transformation of character and conn
ltenance in this once promising young
man. till at last with pen still 10 hand,
with form bent and features pinched
land hard, he sits-the confirmed miser.
Under darkness and. what appears 10 be

Good Idea.

The prohibiting of duck shooting on
Lake Reba for the past two years has
brought about state Of affairs thai local
hunters claim is an excellent one. The
ducks being allowed to use the lake un
molested, have come in great droves this
season and the surrounding ponds have
afforded some fine sport. They also feed
in the evening in the nearby corn fields.
When shooting was allowed on the lakes
it was very rare thing to get real
good days sport on account Of the large
number of nimrods who frequented the
place. Hundreds have been attracted 10
this big body of water this year on &C
count of the absence of the hunter.
