There are many bits of excellent character drawing in “The Shepherd of the HUls," the dramatization of Harold Bell Wright's most widely read novel, which comes to the Bosse opera house for an engagement commencing Friday, April 18. It is a beautiful play, filled with tears and laughter; one cannot help laughing or crying in turn, if his heart is right. The people that move within it are so human that the auditor will pick them out for like and dislike, as if he had really known them In flesh, rather than on the boards of tile stage.

It Carries a tax on each machine, according to the motor power of the car.

If a guy really loves a girl he’ll soak the fifty cents it would take to press bls suit, in the bank, in expectation and put his trousers beneath the mattress and springs so they’ll look half way decent anyway.—Ex.

MR. PARKER WANTS THE PLACE. Man Well Known Here a Candidate for Allen County Superintendency. We are interested to know that Mr. Albert R. Parker is a candidate so? county superintendent of schools in Allen county. Mr. Parker took for his wife Miss Iva E. Steele of this city. He is a man splendidly qualified for very important position. He is a graduate of the Fort Wayne high school and of Indiana university. He has also done post-graduate work in the university. His moral character is above reproach. He is well acquainted with the practical working of the public school system, having taught and superintended schools for a number of years. Mr. Parker has a broad acquaintance not only in Allen county, but also in Adams county and throughout the state. Having been a member of the state legislature of Indiana he has the advantage of knowing all the Ins and outs of legislation : and this, together with his knowledge lof the school laws would, give him a great advantage in conducting the office of county superintendent. In our opinion he would be just the man to aid and co-operate with the trustees in the work of the schools and one who would do credit to his county and whose influence would be felt throughout the state.
