this society sent agents into the field with
a remonstrance against the Blair nui to

Showman Robinson was called

early quiet of last Sunday morning was
considerably disturbed at Brunswick by
the visit of a gang of burglars and safe
robbers. About 8 CclocK ounaay morn

and his son were awakened by a loud re
port, as of a gun, in front of their resi
dence. They Immediately arose to learn
th pauaa and found that burglars bad en
tered the hotel of Otto Elster, and had
dragged a safe that weighed about six
hundred pounds out Into the road and had
blown it open. One of the burglars was
seen by young Hawkins, who' gave
chase for a short distance, ine m. weni

Inn in succession Deacon E. W. Andrews.
of North Professor street, found that his
growing corn had been visited during the
night and the corn on a number of ears
bad been partially or wholly eaten off the
cob. To solve the mystery a careful watch
was kept and the pilferer was loana w oe
a large thomas cat, which would stand on
It hind let, pull down the ear, tear open
the husks and eat the corn. In the five
nights forty ears had been destroyed.
Thla is a true cat story, and is believed to be
entirely new as the fact that a cat will do
this has not been geneially known.

E. M. Chase is in charge and, at reasona

develop their muscle by pulling the oars.
A large hotel on the grounds furnishes
ample accommodations to those who do
not come prepared to "camp out" or "take

and the charges moderate. I am Informed
there are about 75 cottages already occu
pied and more are being constructed.
These are owned and mostly occupied by
private parties. It is seldom that one of
these can not be rented at reasonaoie price,
and the whole cost of Hying here would
be but a trifle more than It would be at

of the localill and resorts on the lake
