VISITED HIS OLD HOME M. Q. Flynn Returns From Extended Tour of the United States and Canada. M. G. Flvnn, a former Polk county logger and now of the Benton County Lumber Company, returned Friday from his five weeks' eastern trip. He went via Union Pacificthrough Ogden and Omaha to Chicago, thence to Philadelphia where he visited a brother, a professional draughtsman. While there he and his niece visited the National capitol, going through all the big government buildings ana viewing other sights of interest. From Philadelphia, he went to JSew iorK and from there to Montreal and Quebec; thence to Ottawa, where his aged parents still reside, ana to see whom particularly, he made the long transcontinental journey. From Ottawa he took the Canadian Pacific homeward bound. This part of his trip through the great north west was particularly delightful, as it was spent in viewing the rolling prairies of Manitoba, the picturesque grandeur of tho mountains, cut by deep gorges and in almost every de pression a oeautirui clear Diue iaKe. Mr. Flynn states that there was some thing new almost every minute. Arriving at Vancouver, he visited the capital of the island, Victoria, and while crossing the Juan de J? uca straits sailed into a school of whales, being not more than 50 yards from one of the largest. He says the water was flying lively for awhile. The whole trip occupied aboutthree weeks, the weather being fine and everything favorable for a most pleasant trip. This was Mr. Flynn's first vacation in six years, or since he and Mr. Ewing started and developed the great lumber company they now con trol. Benton County Review. PEEPING TOM CAPTURED Plucky Young Women Hold Up Prowling Celestial at Point of Revolver. Toy Sing, a Chinese hop raiser living south of town was arrested by Marshal White, Sunday night, on a charge of disorderly tonduct. He was taken before Police Judge Stouffer where he pleaded guilty and was given a fine or fio. ine uninaman nas been annoying the people of South Dallas for several months by prowl ing around their houses and peeking in at the windows at night, and so offensive had his actions become recently that several women were in a state bordering on nervous collapse. Sunday night he made his appear ance at the home of John Lynn and was proceeding to make himself dis aereeablv familiar when Miss Sadie Lynn and Miss -Wells, a neighbor girl, deciaea to eneci nis capiure. Rushing upon him, they commanded him to surrender. The Chinaman gave no answer, but started to run. A shot in the air from Miss Lynn's re volver brought him to a sudden halt, and the thoroughly frightened offender was held at bay until Marsnai wnite arrived and took him in charge. It is not believed by those who know the Chinaman best that he has meant any harm by his queer behavior, and it is the general opinion that lie is mentally unbalanced. His actions. however, have been such as to cause much alarm among the women of the neighborhood, and it is hoped that his arrest and punishment will have a salutary effect. While he nas Deen ffiven his liberty, he will be closely watched by the officers, and in case of a repetition of his offense, he will doubtless be sent to the asylum or prison, as the necessities or his case shall seem to require. 3 1 5 3 1 I MILL STREET, S DALLAS, OKLUUN I WEDDING BELLS RING Miss Ethel Ballantyne Becomes the Bride of Louis P.
