TAKE NOTICE.

From one cause or another We
have been late in going to press, and
on several occasions have missed the
mails and made our paper day late
in reaching subscribers. If it was
not one thing it was another that we
could not help, while we tried to get
up all the ads and print all the 1--we
stuff We had on hand. We always
hate to turn down an advertisement,
but it is important that the paper be
printed on time, and hereafter we are
going to press at 5 o'clock on Monday
afternoon and the same time on
Thursday. - 80,
If those who have news items they
want printed will cooperate and not
wait until the morning we are to print
to hand them in it will help very much.
and the same is true of the advertiser
In these times we can't do just as
we would like to do, but we have to
do the best we can, and we have de-
cided not to worry about it any more,
but adopt this rule of going to press
as here stated, if something does
not break, whether We have ~ all the
ads or not, and whether O.. OF We
have as good a paper as we could
make.
And another thing, while we are
writing shop, all those whose time is
out on the first of November are get
ting this paper for the reason that we
have had so many troubles the past
two weeks we have not had time to
give attention to our mailing list, but
unless they renew at once there will
be no more paper, and the only notice
we can give you of the date is to re-
quest that you examine the label With
the name on your paper and be govern
ed by that At the low prices of the
paper, only s.. so, we can not afford to
take the time and expense to senc

Elena Theodorini Was Greatly Beloved

Buenos Aires, Dec. p Correspondence
ever have been so popular and so beloved
by the Argentine public as Elena Theo-
dorini, an opera singer famous in this
| country who was arrested by officers of
French cruiser on a charge that she
was a spy in the employ OF Count Lux
burg, the former German minister here.
Count Luxburg received his passports
from the Argentine government for send
ing to Germany a suggestion that Ar
gentine ships be sunk without trace.
La Theodorini, as she has always been
called in Argentina, took passage on
board a steamer for Europe in company
with a group of theatrical persons who
were known to be friends of Count Lux
burg The steamer was halted off Mon
tevideo by British cruisers and some Of
the others of the theatrical group were
placed under arrest, but Theodorini was
not molested until the steamer was over
hauled by French cruiser off the Span
ish coast.
