The newly furnished rooms Of the To-
peka Press and Modoc Clubs were dedi-
Gated on the evening of the 18th inst. by
giving an informal reception. The eZ-
erCises were opened by brief address
from F. p. Baker, of the Commonwealth,
who closed his remarks by reading a let
ter from Noble Prentiss of the AtchisOn
Champion, who was to have delivered
the opening address, but was unable to be

as the members of the club in Topeka.
