We attended the concert and ice-cream
supper at Mountain City on the 1+th, which
was grand success. Miss Maggie and
Fannie Manlove, Miss Ella Barton, Miss
Mollie Guilliams, Mrs. DR.. Reagan, Miss
Kate Blum, Miss Alice Haupt, and Miss
Nellie Roach were the young lady actors
Mr.. s. Ligon, Willie Manlove, Elam Dudley,
Johnny Hodges. Arthur Roach, Johnny
Stephenson and Fine Roach, were the young
men actors. All acquitted themselves well
considering the time they had been pre-
pairing. Music was furnished by Miss
Maggie Manlove and Miss Flora Storts of
Kyle. The music we must say, could not
have been better, the cake and ice-cream
ditto. Kyle was well represented; among
the number was Miss Mitchell and Storts
Rev. Mrs. King, Miss Iantha Houston and
brother, E. E. Banner and Enron. Many
from the country near here attended, too
numerous to mention. San Marcos was
represented by Mrs. Capt. Manlove and her
boys. ALI seemed to have pleasant time
and the amount collected was enough to ac-
complish the object intended.
The Texas Western surveying party is be-
tween here and Lockhart and will reach this
place some time this week. Some seem to
think we are sure of its being built to this
place. Major HARDWOOD of Gonzales, bought
lots near town last week for the purpose of
building ON them sometime soon

ssDon,t Know Half their value.-

They cured me of Ague. Billiousness and
Kidney Complaint as recommended had
a half bottle left, which used for two little
girls who the doctors and neighbors said
could not be cured Iwould have lost both
of them in one night if I had not given
them Hop Bitsers- They did them 50 much
good continued their use until they were
cured That is Why say You do not know
half the value Of Hop Bitters, and do not
recommend them high enough B, Roch-
