Mare, England, to visit their brother,

ried there and decided to remain
there. The Palmers will go with the

A Rexall Alligator.

Claude Robinson received last
Thursday by express real live ali
gator which was sent him by his
brother, DR.. Wild Robinson, who is
making stay at Hot Springs, Ark,
with his father, DR.. ]. H. Robinson,
of Davis City, for the latters health.
The alligator is about two and half
feet long, and DR.. Wild wrote his
father had examined it's teeth and
pronounced him to be thirty years
old, but Wid's reputation for truth
and veracity is somewhat shaken by
this statement. The alligator was
placed in the show window at Bell &
Robinsons drug store, and attract
ed much attention. He was a rather
savage brute and Tuesday night
made his escape from the tank in the
window and prowled all over the
store When Erwin Little opened
the store yesterday morning he SOL
emnly swears the alligator chased him
all over the store and came mighty
near catching him. When the balance
of the force arrived at the store the
alligator was finally lassoed and they
decided he was too dangerous to
keep around drug store SO they
presented him to "Honeysuckle'
Horn, and he is going to raise aliga-
tors along with his white rabbits, if
he can secure another one.
