On Tuesday the members of the grand jury made a trip to the Pearl Fisheries here. Just what the ultimate outcome of the investigation will be remains to be seen. To date about twenty indictments have been returned against .the men placed under arrest and according to reports from Woodstock more are quite certain to follow. The grand jury hopes to complete its works on the matter this week. Among those placed under arrest, Fremont Hoy and his son, Clarence, are still confined in the county jail owing to their failure to secure bond. Kenneth Hoy had been released on bond while J. C. Holly of this city is also out on bond. Two other men against whom indictments were vote# are still among the missing.

Elsa and six companions play in the garden, tossing a golden bell. Suddenly the ball flies across the hedge into the garden of Elfrida. The children, seeking the ball, fall into the power of the witch. In her trouble, Hildegard appeals to the flowers for help. Queen Flora advises her to consult old Mother Witeh-Hazel, who knows all enchantments. Mother Witch-Hazel tells her that if the hedge which bounds Elfrida's garden be cut down, the enchantment will be at an end. The hedge can be destroyed only with the Golden Sickle of Fairyland." There is great rejoicing among the fairies when this is told, because this sickle is in their keeping. They hasten to give it to the Queen, that she may attain skill in using it. Raymond, nephew of Queen Hildegard, comes bringing tidings of the kingdom, and a letter from Mother Witch-Haael telling the Queen that the hour for action is at 'hand. The Queen cuts down the hedge, thus freeing the children. Flora crowns Hildegard amid general rejoicing. Ladies' white canvas slippers and oxfords at Erickson's store.
