WE were shown on Tuesday Morning a fine, solid gold badge, which was award­ ed to Oscar Norton, at Fox Lake, on Saturday last, as the champion swimmer of Fox Lake. The badge was a very fine one and cost in the neighborhood of $20. John P.

Of course the parents pltad the excuse of hard times and high railroad rates for keeping them home, but the rising generation, our fu­ ture men and women, should not be obliged to look back, in years to come, with regret that "hard times" prevented their witnessing the greatest exhibit of the world's treasures that will ever be seen again during the retrench in other young people a lifetii 10" If a man awaks^^^^Ka robber in his house he at of^^^^Hto put stop to his pilferin ^^^^H^emocrats last fall told us tha^^^Hroer tariff was pressing heavilyyet they are now willing to leti^^^^Hkber" con­ tinue its work whi^^^^^But "stop thief," then run in different direction.

The little girl was no less uncertain, but at last became reconciled to the change. The night before they were to go her mother was hearing her prayers as usual. The little girl said them all, and then at the end added: "Well, good by, 0 Lord 1 We're going to Chicago." THE story is told of a young mM who is a victim of the cigarette habit, that he heard that the manufacturers would give a handsome present to the person return­ ing 1,000 cigarette boxes. The young man by rigid ecdnomy in other lines managed to accumulate the desired num­ ber of boxes. He packed them carefully and expressed them to the firm, with happy anticipations of the beautiful present he was to get for his trouble. Imagine his consternation when a few days later he received a response from the firm, and this is whait it said: "Send us 1,000 more and we'll send you a coffin. THE Geneva Republican says that "if there Is one thing that gives this editor of a newspaper more joy than to add a score of new subscribers to his- list, it is to whack off one who is narrow-minded and shallow enough to want you to shut off his paper because you have given ex­ pression to an opinion at variance with his own. When a fellow comes into the office and says with the air of a man that had you completely in his power, and wa« about to crush you, 'I want you to stop my paper,' we cannot get him off the list quick enough, and when we do get him off we feel as if a barnacle had been removed from the rudder ol the journalistic ship."

There will be seen the wonderful wild animals exhibited at Magenbeck's Man- agerie; a large number of Arabian horses, camels, dromedaries, and donkeys, rid­ den by wild Bedouins from the "Wild East;" camels from the "Street of Cairo" with Arab drivers and Nubian and Soudanese riders; representatives from the Egyptian temple; dancers from the Moorish and Turkish theatres; the torture performers and dancers from the Algerian theatre; fifty "Ferris Wheel" employees in full uniform, a large num­ ber of Chinese performers, jugglers, etc., from the Chinese theatre; beauties from the "International Beauty Show;" ostrichs from the "Ostrich Farm;" rein­ deer driven by Laplanders mounted up­ on the original Lapland sledge; repre­ sentatives fram the "Irish Villages" and Old Vienna;" Mexican Band from Cap-' tive Balloon Park; souvenir snow balls from the "Ice Railwayand in fact every attraction in Midway Plaisance will be represented in the procession.
