WANTING FOR MONTH8.
Judge Julian Urquhart, recorder,

Christmas present brought him by the

himself In the effort to keep warm,
though It aometlnn-M seems as though
he mado It cjulte warm for the offen
der* before him.
It in regarded oh a lucky thing that
this stove wjs pnt up before the usual
army of Christmas offenders appeared
before him. Hut now that tho room is
warm and comfortable, tho Christmas
drunks, If any then* be In (his dry
year, may get off light.
In order Hint there will bo no un
necessary punishment for the unfor
tunates. Judge I'niubart will hold
court *Chr!fitma* morning, Judt the
same ns on other days, and give the
prisoners a speedy hearing.
Marked for Death.
Three years ago I was marked for
death. A graveyard cough was tear
ing my lungs to pieces. Doctors foil
ed to tudp me, and hope had ffed,
when my husband got Dr. King's New
Discovery." says Mrs. A. C. Williams,
of Hoc*. K.v. "The first dose helped
me and Improvement kept on until 1
had gained 58 pounds In weight and
my health was fully restored." This
medicine holds (lie world's healing re
cord for roughs and colds and lung
and throat dlseasos. It prevents pneu
monia. Sold under guarantee at drug

lie therefore discovered that the fath
er must have been an admirer, though
he did not know him.
Tho citizen carefully rend the letter

Then he went down town and lie not

for but lie did more than that, he
purchased n lot of fruit and th'nga

to the family.
Then with his purchases lie went

that the boy luid asked Hantn Claus

as much as he would like to have done,

FIRE DEPARTMENTS.
In printing tho appointments of the
police force yesterday, the word "act
ing" was placed before the name of
Lt, Lavender. This was because the

way before the appointments were
made.
L ent. Lavender received his ap

night.
Mayor Miller made no change in the
personnel of iho department except
In ono instance. J. T. Smith was
transferred to the tiro department, and
G. K. Smith was transferred from the
fire to the polled department. Other
wise there was no change.
There were over one hundred happy
men yesterday morning when the list
of appointments were rent. There
mav have boon some d'sappolntmenta

In the printed page. Tho play has proved |
a strong drawing card, everywhere I*
lias been presented.
Interest for the most part centers
around the two male characters. Charley
8teelc and Joe Portugnis. and these two
parts are played splendidly toy Guy Stand
ing and Tneo«lore Roberts, and these two
excellent actors keep very much In the
scene during the course of the play. Both
roles are difficult to handle with any
semblance to reulism. but both have the
characters well In hand nnd make all j
that is possible out of them. These two
actors arc given capital support and the
several acts are set In most becoming
pictures.
