So .were many other things, but “ye green reporter” is not as responsible lor the noB appearence of news items as for their appearance. As to the entertainment it -was very good indeed ,so for as the pr ogramme was carried out. Here, however, is where it lacked, caused by one of the Star Actors in the “30 minutes farce” being taken suddenly ill, which of course knocked that performance in the head.' The supper! That was excellent, as was testified to by some fifty or sixty dollars worth of receipts. The ladies did them selves proud in getting up the supper.

Only a large hole In the ground where the bullet struck met hi* gaze. To the ori-lookers it was plain enough, but to Jake it appeared as though the poor dog' had been blown, into the earth. The fact of the m ' was, however, that Jake .naiBsed ^ dog entirely and was so taken up with the thought of the great feat that he did not notice the dog at all. Before the smoke of bis exploit had cleared away, and while Jake was yet wrapped in admiring him self, the dog recovered from his fit and ran away under cover of the smoke Has any oue seen “ the kid” since?
