We have taken the matter up
with the postal authorities al {;
hope to have our paper reacl.
ing you regularly once more.
The papers are mailed at tho
post office in the city, wrapped
securely and plainly addresse,!

Why it takes four days to get

the delays until we find the
cause.

Review Of the
Palm Program

Fun and then more fun last
night. 'The New Stenographer"
caused more real fun last night,
than any comedy that we have
had in a long time. We have
seen homely women, but the
woman that cit was all about"
sure carried off the prize. The
acting Of all the actors in the
picture was great, and a better
comedy could hardly be arrang-
ed. The entire set of pictures
was good, the Biograph was
photographed in an extraord-
mary way even for the Bio. Co.
Tonight will be the last chance
to see "The New Stenograph,"
so if you want to see this
scream, do so tonight. This
one picture is worth a quarter
of anybodys money.

when going up a small incline
he stepped on a small wire
hoop in such a way as to throw
the hoop up against the calf Of
his right leg. He did not think
it was serious at the time but
in a few hours it became evil
dent to him that he would be
laid up for a few days. Mr..
Graham stated sit was one of
the biggest little bruises he

Mr.. and Mrs. j. E. Conroy,

Geo. Schlagenhauff, Jr., and
Mr.. and Mrs. Charles Witt,
Jr., entertained at the home
of the former Wednesday even
ing, for Mr.. and Mrs. Roy John
son, who were recently married
in Mason City.
The reception was a surprise
to Mr.. Johnson and bride and
when the band, which had
quietly gathered about the
place, played Schubert's Sere-
made, it would be a hard mat
ter for one to say which was
greater surprised, Mr.. and Mrs.
Johnson or the band when they
first heard of his marriage, for
it was indeed a surprise to his
many friends here to know he
had become a Benedict.
A very novel entertainment
was given the guests by each
member receiving a booklet of
some twenty pages. On the
outside cover was written the
name of some one present, and
the object was to write a his
tory of that one by pictures cut
from magazines. Each page
was a chapter in the life of
that individual representing
the first photograph, first sor-
row, first beau, etc, and when
completed some of them would
make a Sunday cartoonist sit
up and take notice.
A delicious two course supper
was served later in the even
ing, Mr.. Schlagenhauff, for
the band, presented the bride
md groom with a rocking chair.
Mr.. and Mrs. Johnson will

Everything goes by contraries, of
course, out here. The European of
proverbial experience buys grand
piano, which being bought necessitates
corresponding alterations and i'm
provements in the drawing-room, and
so to the house in general, the result
being a removal from the villa to a
mansion. China knows better. She
buys an expensive fleet, and then, fore
seeing the trouble and expense it is go
ing to be to her in a thousand differ
ent ways, gets into quarrel with
Japan so that she may rid herself of
considerable portion. That done, the
second step is taken. So that all temp
tation may be removed she gives away
her naval ports. Now she puts up to
auction the few remaining vessels.
"Going, going"-not yet gone" the
troubles and anxieties Of fleet. Hans

l.ocul.t,on to Destroy Rats.

Lisbon has been suffering from =
pest ofrats, for which the general anti
dote of cats, traps and poison proved
abortive. AS last resorce bacilli were
employed, and the municipal doctors
were commissioned to inoculate some
rats with m infectious disease. A suit
able virus, harmless to man, was found.
few rats captured and inoculated.
and then released. The experiment
proved a great success, for the baci,-
lus rapidly spread and the rats died
with wonderful rapidity, SO that in a
very short time the city was freed from
the rodents. 1t is now proposed to
clear vessels from rats in the same way
