A dispatch from Huntington says: Mrs. Prough will secure a divorce without any one objecting and when the decree is once granted, Prough will pay to her a sum of money already agreed upon and all things pertaining to their married life will have ended. Prough is the son of wealthy people near Zanesville. Last May he married Miss Alta Walker of this city. Everything was flowers unti? he was forced to go to Keokuk, Iowa, by virtue of the strict rules of the base ball association. His return was to the home of his parents and not until Tuesday did he remember that he had a wife. It was then that Constable Wells Shearer notified him by a warrant for arrest on the charge of wife desertion. Prough and his father came here and fixed the matter so that the wife may secure a divorce and a lump of Papa Prough's money without anyone standing in her way while he is given his freedom to remain under the protecting wing of his parents. -rThose who have used Blackburn's Castor-Oil-Pills should now ask for Blackburn's Casca-Royal-Pills.

Little Girls Give a Play to Raise Funds to Rent A Tent. EFFORT IS APPRECIATED. In an effort to earn money to pay their expenses for a tent at the cnautauqua, a number of little girls living in the east end of the city, and between the ages of 8 and 12, gave a little four act play entitled "Cinderilla" at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Thomas Williams on East Main street last evening. The young people have been working hard on the play for the last three or four weeks and their success was realized last evening when about 30 or 4t of their friends attended the play. Miss Elizabeth Bailey, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. William Bailey, was one of the stars of the cast with Laverne and Esther Jones coming in for their share of the honors. Alda McFerson, who took the part of Cinderilla, was also very good and deserves praise. Helen Bahey also deserves special mention. The girls had their stage arranged in a very artistic manner and lighted by electricity with all proper effects. The girls made their own costumes which were very appropriate. Between acts special numbers were given by Helen and Elizabeth Bailey and Alda. McFerson. They will repeat the play this evening. The cast of characters is: Prince . Helen Bailey God Mother .'. Elizabeth Bailey Cinderilla Alda McFerson First Sister Laverne Jones Second Sister Esther Jones CHARGE OKRIETY John Schroeder Is Alleged to Have Cut Off Calf's Hoof. . THE CREATURE WAS HURT. John Schroeder, a farmer living southeast of the city, is under arrest on the charge of cruelty to animals. His case will be given a hearing in the city court tomorrow morning. Prosecutor Jessup states that about three weeks ago a two weeks' old calf belonging to Schroeder nearly severed its leg at the first joint on a halter rope. Schroeder, he says, cut the hoof off with a knife then placed axle grease over the wound and turned the little animal out in the field where it has since remained. "Instead of killing the calf as he should have done this man carelessly ministered to its wound then turned it out in a field to fatten so that he could sell it," stated the prosecutor. vIbrat" ionT Dfini In Sand Formed by the Production of Sonnds. Did. you ever bear that you can make drawings by sound, or, rather, that the sound vibrations will cause designs to be made with the proper implements at hand? Here is the way to do it: At a hardware store get a piece of sheet brass one-eighth of an inch thick and six inches square. The sheet should be perfectly flat, or if it is not it should be hammered so and the edges rounded off. In the center of the sheet cut a hole three-sixteenths of an inch in diameter. If the sheet has been hammered it must now be heated in a redhot stove and cooled slowly. Now cut a six inch piece from a broom handle and fix one end of it firmly in a block of wood. The other end you must round off and screw the plate of brass on it. If you draw a violin bow over the edge of the brass plate a tone will be sounded. Practice this until the tone is quite clear and strong. Now sprinkle some sand on the plnte, and the grains will dance about while the note is sounded, showing that the plate is In vibration. Now put your finger on the edge of the plate in the middle of one side. At the corner of the side at an angle of forty-five degrees draw the bow, and the sand will form In two lines at right angles, starting from your finger. This is because the plate now vibrates in parts, one part moving up, while the other moves down, and the lines between these parts have no motion. Therefore the saud settles in them. By drawing the bow at regular distances from the finger or by touching the plate in more than one place at a time while some one else draws the bow a variety of sand figures will be made. If you will mix a little lycopodfum powder with the sand when the plate vibrates it will form curious little heaps and whirlpools, which add to the moving effect of the designs. Instead of a brass plate you may use one of glass six or eight inches square, and its sharp edges you may smooth down with a file moistened with turpentine. To prove to yourself that the plate is still or almost so at the sand lines make a cardboard cone about ten inches long, two and a half inches in diameter at its larger end and small enough at the other end to fit into a rubber tube, which, should be about two feet long. Let one person cause the plate to vibrate, while another holds the large end of the cone over the plate, applying the rubber tube to the ear. When the middle of the cone is exactly over a sand line scarcely any tone at all will be heard, and the ueirer the cone is to the sand line the weaker the sound will be, while it will be clear and strong at the farthest points from the sand lines, proving that the sand falls into lines, and as the parts of the plate move in opposite directions on each side of the and lines their effect is equalized or destroyed, causing no sound In the air In the cone balance when directly over those lines.

EIGHT IN FIGHT WITHOUT POLICE

Jim Maher , Told to Defend Himself Against John Kelly. MUSTN'T THROW BRICKS. BUT MAY USE THEIR FISTS AND FIGHT FAIR, AND BE ASSURED THAT NO ARRESTS WILL BE MADE. "Jim, I give you fair warning, at 10 o'clock this morning. I am going to file an affidavit against you, charging you with being a coward." laugh ed Prosecutor Jessup this morning when Jim Maher appeared at police headquarters and asked the prosecu tor to place John Kelly under bond to keep t'.ie peace. Maher has been employed by Kelly as a stock buyer. Jim stated that Kelly got after him last night and to avoid hostilities he took to his heels. "However I don't intend to have that man Kelly run me off Main street again. I've got as much right, to walk on Main street as he has," stated Maher. "Why didn't you fight him?" asked the prosecutor. "Not for mine. If I had you would have sent" nie to jail and, Mr. Jessup, I would rather be a free coward, than a jail bird," replied Maher, while everybody roared with laughter. "If Kelly abuses you again and you whip him fair and square you can rest assured I will not prosecute you. John Kelly needs a good whipping," said Mr. Jessup. "I may use a brick on him. There are plenty of them handy on Main street now." Maher replied. "No, bricks don't go. You are as big as Kelly Is and you can whip him with fists," the prosecutor informed him. After being assured again that he would not be sent to the jail he dreads so much, if he whipped Kelly in a fair fight, Maher left headquarters with the remark that he is "ready to work if Kelly tried to start anything with him again." GREAT FAD IS THIS i - - Marion Business Men Walk About Streets Partly Undressed. THEY TRY BATHING SUITS. Marion, Ind., Aug. 19. Dr. G. L. Simon, Bert Copeland, Edward Cald well and Harry Hosey, business men. have started a fad which in time promises to outrival the popularity of the sheath gown. People on the public square in the down town district were amazed and slightly shocked to see four men walk ing leisurely along minus their shoes and stockings, hats, collars, coats and vests, and their trousers rolled up to their knees. Their nnnpnranrn nn h cmnofi. i n this partial condition of dishabille created a mild sensation. The hot weather was the subject of conversa tion when the men gathered at the Caldwell home. As a result of a dare the men removed as much of their clothing as was permissible without violating the city ordinance and made the trip to town to buy, soda water and cigars.

Progress man Important Field Brie! Reference to Ihe Work of Prof. J. A. Smith, Richmond's Surgeon Chiropodist

V J THE PROF. AND A PATIENT. It is rapidly becoming a generally recognized fact that the care of the feet is a matter to which the greater importance must be attached. The neglect of the feet has In many lastances resulted fatally. Neglected Corns. Bunions, Ingrowing Nails and other unwelcome blemishes to both the health and beauty of the feet, are things which none who are aware of the above facts should tolerate In themselves or their dear ones. Of course, in the important field of ctentific chiropody there are those who excel and who have attained a certain prominence owing to long experience and thorough application. In this connection we may say that Prof. J. A. Smith who, indeed, needs no Introduction to many of our readers, has attained a leading position In the profession, having graduated from Dr. Kahler's School of Surgical Chiropody in New York, and made a close study of It for the past 15 years. None should fall to visit his parlor and witness the art of demonstrating practical chiropody in the most scientifically, progressive manner, without any possible ill results.' The Prof, refers to the highest business and society authorities, who have bestowed much praise' upon his successful efforts in the profession. We have been prompted to refer to the matter in the interest of progress and as an act that will unquestionably ' rebound to the benefit of our readers.
