so exactly at the same time.
And what a big splash it made
Teddy Possum and Billy Skunk, who
were hiding very near the bank, got
their eyes and cars full of water and
they began to sputter and to choke.
Jimmy Coon was pretty wet too. And
what was Cousin Bruin doing?
The very next instant another
mighty splash was heard and Cousin
Bruin had jumped right in after that
orchestra 1t was Mr.. Bullfrog who
made him so angry, and he thought
it was disgusting that Mr.. Bullfrog
should play him such a low trick, and
not wait to be properly caught, accord
ing to the regular bear way of catch
ing frogs ever since Murmuring Brook
ran into Silver Pond.
And what do you think? Was Mr.
jeremiah Bullfrog caught, or Mrs.
Sally or any of that orchestra? Not at
all. They were al safe and sound, and
Cousin Bruin had to swim ashore.
When Cousin Bruin jumped into the
pond after Mr.. jeremiah the water
splashed 20 feet, and what do you
think became of Teddy Possum and
Bobby Skunk? If they were wet
through when the whole orchestra
jumped in they were nearly drowned
when Cousin Bruin made such a
splash, nearly drowned. But do you
think they had a word of complaint
when Cousin Bruin came out dripping
wet on the bank? Not a single groan
did they make and Teddy Possum was
mad enough to eat nails, but he said
Cousin Bruin, that is all right, dc
not mind getting wet at ALL
Little Peter Rabbit had to come
out of the bushes and wipe the water
out of their eyes and help dry theil
fur coats.

COUSIN BRUINS CATCH.

~ OUSIN Bruins way of catching a
frog was to suddenly thrust out
his huge paw, strike like lightning,
and throw the frog on the bank, some
feet from where he had been struck
But this time when Jimmy Coon
thought he was helping, he just made
Cousin Bruin nervous. When he plan
ned to strike Mr.. jeremiah Bullfrog,
Mr. Frog was a bit nervous too and
prepared to jump quicker than usual
or Cousin Bruin was second too
slow, for when the moment came,

"A Man OF Honor" the last pro-
ductiOn in which Harold Lockwood
will be seen and which played at
the Auditorium yesterday. is a
thrilling adventure drama of strength
and beauty. 1t tells the story of
David Smith, a virile young Ameri-
can, who is sent 10 a tropic island
by a clique of INSCRIPTIONS men TO
concoct a false report on property
there, in order TO swindle thousands
of unsuspecting stockholders. How
he refuses and how he determines
TO retrieve the deteriorated property
and make il pay is. shown. as are
his many adventures and hair
breadth escapes while accomplish
ing this seemingly impossible task.
Mixed with the daring Of his under
taking is the romance which unex-
peCtedly comes into his life on this
remote island. and how a wealth of
pirate gold and treasure is also dis
covered by the happy pair.
One of the unusual and interest
ing incidents Of the play occurs
when Mr. Lockwood is seen as the
handsome. daredevil buccaneer.
This is brought into the story
through the imagination of the girl
