FRIDAY, OCTOBER 16. Agricultural Display Will be Splendid at the Fair USED CLUB ON OFFICER'S HEAD R. W. Solesbee, White, Resist ed Arrest By Patrolman Newsome. In Court Friday. K. W. Solesbee, a white man who says he is a concrete foreman for W. F. Bowe & Co., faced Recorder W. D. IVvin in court Friday morning on charges of disorderly conduct and resist ing an officer, the circumstances con nected with the latter charge being of a serious nature, it is said. He was fined $lO for disorderly conduct and SIOO for resisting the office*. The officer was Patrolman Newsome, who was se verely beaten over the head with his own club when he attempted to place the man under arrest. A warrant has also been sworn out by the police department against Solesbee, charging assault and battery. Solesbee is said to have been drinking in a saloon at the corner of Broad and Marbury streets, when first noticed by the officer. However, he was not suf ficiently intoxicated to warrant his ar rest, according to the policeman. Later, the office* asked two men who were apparently w r ith Solesbee to carry him away. Solesbee is said to have become indignant and asserted that the officer could not arrest him. He is alleged to have cursed Officer Newsome and when the latter then attempted to place him under arrest a fierce fight ensued in which Solesbee secured the police’s club and struck him two severe blows on the right side of the head. The assailant was shot at twice but missed. IK H. 6. Ml! ENTERTAINED FRIENDS Elegant Banquet Served at the Hotel Plaza on Thursday Night.

The Bijou is showing for the last half of the week a really big vaudeville show, and the prices, remember, are less than iormerly. You can now take the best su .t in the house at the matinee for ten cents, and see three acts of Keith vau deville and the moving pictures besides, or at night you can take the best seat 20 cents. Seats in the balcony at night are 10 cents. The best act on the program, now be ing shown at the Bijou, is that of Ray Monde, the impersonator of impersona tors. He's simply a woman. He cer tainly is a man or a woman but which? Ask anyone who lias seen him. Go see uim yourself. Besides the mystery as to the sex, his act of impersonation is clever. Uressed in full dress male costume, but with the figure and face of a wom an, Ray Monde? with curly close-crop ped hair, makes you think ‘it* Is a man; and just as many thing 'it' is a woman. Rut you are not satisfied, especially the women; and when after a change of cos tume he-she emerges in an elaborate and beautiful gown, the women in the audience exclaim, ‘There. I told you it was a woman.’ But their joy is short lived, for Ray Monde? whips off the ladies’ purple wig, showing the boy’s wig underneath, causing them to think ‘it’ is a man, for the moment. After a bow, off comes this second wig, where upon a mass of lustrous brown hair falls over ‘her’ shoulders, to the audi ence’s surprise and conviction that it is a woman after all. And when after a number of bows this last wig is sud denly whipped off, the result creates a sensational uproar in the audience, and last night they kept talking and debat ing on it for several minutes after the act was all through.
