There ia much' speculation as to the mysterious person and it is a safe conjecture that when the bridle if off the fun- will commence in bunches. A prominent busineBa man who has observed this fun before, in talking of the proposition said Wednesday: "I am glad that these people Intend to give ?B the real goods. It is great fun and when a stranger takes the part. When He Is Expected. When asked about the arrival of Mr. Holmes, an advance man for his appearance said: "That ls hardly a fair question. I waa a little premature In stating in the paper that they would tell tho ex act date of his arrival for tbls ia Just what we will not do. And to be per fectly honest about it, if you can tell you can do moro than I can. Sher lock: Holmes, Jr., baa a peculiar way of doing unexpected things and tho very time that I think I have my An gers on him la the time that I find I haven't. 1 remember very distinctly upon one occasion in Salt Lake ct i y when I thought Holmes waa several hundred miles away, I stepped into a cafe for lunch, looking over the bill and glancing up, there aat the man ot mystery right at my side, lookin? r'uiiigi?t ju:u tay eyes. However, you can believe that when he arrives he will let the fact be known In unmis takable terms. Picture on Deposit As a safeguard to the public aa well as to Sherlock Holmes, Jr., his picture will be deposited under seal. In some prominent bank where lt will be Acute Indigestion. .
