Any one upon entering this resort upon an evening can see the little ones as they come into the popular amusement place and their first thought seems to be for Mr. Rowland whose salient features are omnipresent from the time the doors are open until the lights of the theater are extinguished after the performance. This evident friendship for the genial theater manager is perhaps caused from the fact that he has made a rule singe the opening of his open air'the-ater that all children under the age of seven would be admitted gratuitously and with his compliments.

They have been going every night and it is his pleasure to see that they are properly cared for when within the gates of his enterprise and he makes it a personal point to see that they are comfortably seated and cared for in other respects, such as giving them an excellent place, where they can see the stage and have all the ice water they can drink. It seems a common spectacle to see these little ones, unaccompanied by any one streaming Into the gates of the Alagraundair nightly. aar.c DON'T FORGET Patterson Drug 1194 Gould avenue, phone 199, is the place to get your drugs and the place to have your prescriptions filled.

Nothing could be learned from him. While standing at the depot on the arrival of the train, he accused two or three different ones of -having shot him in the head and while being brought down to the jail he would try to run from every post or garbage can he saw and beg those having him in charge to "not let any one shoot him any more."
