mounted the city's flag, arrived last
week and work is being rushed to get

editor of the Grocery Reminder, a
spicy little sheet sent out to nearly

Miller on his new venture. Already
careworn wrinkles are appearing on
his face clearly bespeaking that of
an overworked editor. The mechani-
cal work was done in the Herald job
rooms.

in the city bastile is distasteful to

entire neighborhood heard him. When
finally lodged in the Jail he became
especially loud and tore things up in
great style. In order that he could
finally adjust himself to his new
surroundings he was left in for the
rest of the day and night.
