EXTRA BILL AT LIBERTY

"The Wonder Man." is the special attraction at the Liberty Theatre to- night and tomorrow. Georges Carpen- tier. the great French athlete and nue1istic champion, who tried unsuc- cpssfully to defeat our own Dempsey, last July, was persuaded to act the star part in this extra fine society drama, utst before he sailed for Eur Ope.
 Very unexrs ctedly, he proved to be tho greatest ctor, puglist every pro- duced, and a coming movie star He appeals to his audience, both by act ing ability and physical perfection. The interesting plot of the play 1n- cludes an unusually fine boxing match nwhich Carpenter shows his clever ness. This play reveals the reasons for the adoration of his countrymen, and greatly increased American re- gard for the handsome French Idol.
 He made only one play while in America, but may return to become the screens champion, now that he was unable to win the puglistic title. He will be the first prize-fighter to be- come a popular world figure outside sporting circles.

NOTICE

The merchants of Seward are com pelled to take action against the un- fair competition they have in regard to mail order business.
 It is safe to say that at least $3,000 leaves this town for merchandise of all kinds every month Our customers (the most of then) do not realize what this would mean ot Seward and to them, if that money was spent at home At least fifty per cent of them don't care, and owe us overdue bills, that they cannot pay because they have sent their cash to the states.
 Recently, boxes of merchandise, even groceries and toys were receiv- ed on this dock for our customers.
 This habit has grown to the extent that it is cramping us to pay our bills and keep up overhead expense, and carry such tremendous accounts, consequently, we do not care to extend credit to anyone who does not pay promptly once every 30 days.
 We heartily thank our desirable patrons and sincerely hope to continue ,ur pleasant business relations with them
