 Thcspians Shinc-Ell<s Prcpar,
 For Anniversary Dnncr-Reli. gious News.
 Bristols latchslring is not hang Ing out to any extent to the species hobo, or the wandering Nagrant or any of the other type Of undesirable citizen who has no Sislble means of support. At ono time in the history .ot the city there was a sort of feel ing Of hospitality toward this class .ot citizen in that quarters had been prepared over the police garage for tho accommodation of certain type of overnight guest, but lately even this haven of refuge has been denied the homeless wanderer. True, the knight of the road has generally given Bristol wide berth as a class, and the palatial quarters over the garage had not been over populated, but until quite recently these quarters have been used as a storage place for the shot stock of one of Bristois bankrupt merchants, and the hobo has not had a place 10 lay his head. which has not been Bristols loss.
 However, there is glimmer of hope, as the shoe stock has been auctioned of and it is expected that soon the place will be thoroughly renovated and bo put in a condition to receive any possible guests, all. though the establishment will be operated as transient stopping place onl wand any overnight guests will be expected to be on their way in the morning.
