 HAS IF COME m THIS


 There's a new resident along Front Street this week He has no office or store - or diseernible Oc- cupation of any kind but takes possession of any or all offices or stores or what-have-yOu if a door happens to be left open.
 He has not divulged his name, but does a lot of talking in a bel ligerent, cawing way. He is evil dently some ones pet, for if things don't go exactly as his crowish mo- tion thinks they should he sets up fine string of invectiVes which make us glad we can't understand crow language.
 We knew things were dull a. round town just now but we didn't think it had come to this.-
 Yesterday Louis DvOrak and Harry Dierks, of the Employment office looked up to see MT. Crow on Dvorak's desk. Believe it or not - he had picked up a blank application for compensation card and was just about to waddle out the door with it when caught.
 Heck, Louie, he was probably taking it home to fill it out.
