 Game Warden Shine arrested Tseppi Christini Monday. for snaring part ridges in the woods east of the village.

Christini assured Shine that he was in the woods looking for dog that he had lost. . -''
 "Oh, ycs," said Shine, "I know all about that dog. and know you have been out here looking for him, in the sa me places. every day for the last two weeks or more. I guess you'd better come along and tell Judge Ford about him."
 The prisoner was bought before Jus tice Ford. J. O. Rorabaok prosecuted. An interpreter spoke for Christlni and reiterated the lost dog story, but the prisoner finally gave up and pleaded guilty. He was fined $1 and costs, az gregating $15.4l, which he paid. After the settlement Justice Ford said in his significant, patronizing way
 "Mr. Christini. would advise you to go right home and kill that dog, because the next time you go out searching for him it's going to cost you not less than $50 and costs. .-. @s E.

Around the factory and on the bulletin boards hand bills signed by w.. P. Ohrysler.

The men went and in less than twenty minutes from the time they quit, the picture was taken.
 Especially erected for the occasion were two whole box-car loads of circus seats places for 5000 men. The field looked like show ground and even those who knew the number of men on the Buick pay roll wondered if those seats would all be taken.
 The men packed themselves in like sardines, and some stood up and some had to sit on the ground so as not to hide the man behind. The ground was puddle. too. but the men didn't mind.
 The Buick payroll averages nearly half a million dollars month, aud the daily operating expenses inclusive of material etc. are more than $11O,OOO a day. The daily output at this season of the year Is 165 cars.
