tect them in their rights as Amer

toned parties engaged in defama-

peace, and even cursed innocent
y-standers, who were not taking
any part in the matter. On Octo.

for each of them and they were
arrested and confined in the CITY

from the City Court and they
were therefore confined in the
city Jail. They were at no time
denied bail. They were Oh the
contrary, granted bail, which they
furnished and were soon at liber-
ty. The police department has
no authority whatever to tx or
grant a bond to anyone; this has

made without any disorder, ex-
cept in one case when one OF the
parties, L. E. Williams, defled
the officer to touch him, when a
weapon had to be drawn to make

was likewise arrested on warrant
and likewise placed in Jail. 1t is
reported that bail was denied

Notes.

CdulorlQge flayerS, two men
and two women, who presented
with much humor and talent an
excellent three act comedy, Sher.
idan's "The Rivals.'' Jess Golfer
who acted the part of Bob Acres,
starred both as the most delight
full character and as the best art
ist. His "valor'' seemed to be
his chief characteristic and most
dependable servant but when that
left him, as it did, he was helpless.
Miss Martha Miller was very
pleasing as Mrs. Malaprop, one
who used the right word in the
wrong place, and was in her
eighteenth century costume, a
good example of the old ladies of
that period. She was a close sec.
ond to Bob Acres and caused
much laughter because of her
ornamented display of language.
Mr.. Orville Newereth appeared in
the interesting role of Captain
Jack Absolute, the rival of Bob
Acres for the hand of Miss Lydia
Langush. The play was very
much enjoyed by the large audi
ence. Although it cost more than
an ordinary lyceum number the
people do not regret that this
company was secured.
The next lyceum number will
be given Thursday, November
sixth, when Mr.. j. Smith DAM

splendid character building. He
is also an entertainer of the
choicest type and intersperses
his lecture with much wit, humor
and philosophy.
The Senior class had the pleas
ure of a Halloween party given
in their honor Friday night by
Misses Vickers and Green at the

Nearly all the members Of the
class were present dressed as
spooks witches or hobgoblins.
They drank witches brew, served
from the witches own caldron,
did many amusing stunts and
played a variety Of games, after
which they enjoyed refreshments
of punch, sandwiches and salad
served in apples by Miss Vickers
and Mrs. Darlington.
Decorations were in orange and
