of two teeth by DR.. j. T. Nicholson.

tistry, Mr.. Kennedy had been declar-
ed beyond human aid by eye special

cause as paralysis of the optic nerve.

nedy went to DR.. Nicholson's office,
suffering sever pain. An examina-
ton showed that an upper molar
and a lower wisdom tooth were bad
ly liberated. Hardly had the second
tooth been pulled when Mr.. Kennedy
exclaimed, II can see-I can see the
light! 1 can see the crack in the
window, l can see you"

Piano Contest Illegal.

A man who was either the proprietor
or representative of the Booster
Advertising Company of Clarinda, Ia,
came to grief in Cresco this week with
his piano contest scheme. in which he
had interested good many of the bus
mess men of the town, who paid, or
agreed to pay him, sums ranging from
$40 to SIS to get into the scheme.
Several other merchants decided to
organize rival contest. but first it
was decided to investigate the legality
of the plan. A letter to the attorney
general brought the information that
contests might be conducted by indi-
viduals or firms, but that a law pas
sed by the 33rd G. A. forbids two or
more merchants or firms from combin-
ing in a contest unless each ticket had
a definite redeemable value. This
opinion clearly put the scheme out of
business, and those interested decided
to drop the matter at once, and at a
meeting chose committee to take
steps to secure the return of their
money, if possible.

Cresco Minstrels the Best Ever

The. entertainment given by the
Cresco Minstrels last Monday evening
was pronounced by many to have been
the very best of long line of home
talent minstrels, and the equal of any
home talent show ever staged in Cresco.
An elegant temporary stage had been
built in the Armory, and when the cur
tains were drawn on the first part, an
/ elegantly furnished stage was reveal
ed, adorned by fourteen of the black
est minstrels ever seen, disposed on
either side of the interlocutor. White
trousers, black and white coats, white
slippers, and black faces made pleas
ing contrast that brought round of
applause before the opening overture
commenced.
Every song was good-there we're no
poor ones and as there were so many
we will omit any individual mention.
Comic songs, ballads and sentimental
selections made up the list; all had
rousing choruses by the entire circle,
and all met with hearty applause, the
song by Mr.. Hicks in which little
Miss Burr was the star feature re-
ceiving double encore. The jokes
were all new-really so-and never
once did they miss fire.
| The second part commenced with a
fine tenor solo by w. ]. Patterson.
Next came Clyde Mitchell and Leon
DeNoyelles with very laughable bur-
lesque, Strong man" act.
The farce, Automobile Crazy" was
seasonable and had the right amount
of ''ginger" to make it 60 with vim
and get hearty rounds of laughter from
start to finish.
Next came tn, "Sloppy Four"
Messrs. Brown, Burgess, Hicks and
Mead, which was one of the big hits Of
the show, and Roe Brown, as green
Swede, was the bright, particular star
of the whole aggregation. His imper-
sonation could not be improved upon,
even by professionals. and his speech,
full of timely local hits, brought down
the house with every sentence.
The entire receipts totaled about
$500, which will leave nice sum for
the library after expenses are met.
