 They have stopped at nothing which would add be it ever so imperceptibly to the verismilitude of scenery, set tings or the realistic effects of human activity in the vast Arena, or to the significant laborateness of the consis- tently comprehensive equipment for 6 notable production of many new and novel ideas never before presented to the amusement going public.

continue idle. A fair demand for

Leaf tobacco sales last week amount
ca TO approximately 10000 pounds

made the leaf quite soft, causing more
