"a party Of young folks, eight couples
In all went skating on tho CLASSY
Neosho Monday evening, taking pas
sage from the city to the river, on the
hurricane deck Of q hand Car. Going
down 1t was funny enough, bit on the
return trip the rails were 80 slick with
frost that the ordinary means of pro.
pulsiOn were not sufficient and the
gentlemen of the company had to walk
and push the cars the entire distance.
In ~ much as it is now leap year, it
it would seem as though this work
ought to have been done by the ladies;
but 1t never seemed to occur to them,
and the gentlemen were back ward
about mentioning it. A good many
people have argued that women would
not exercise their "rights" IL they had
them, and this little incident seems to
furnish proof.
The Carriage and Omnibus Com
pany inform is that they have made
contracts with six additional work men
who will be here during the month.
When these men arrive, -four additional
fires will started in the smith shop,
In addition to the six mem
three or four more men to
work as blacksmith's helpers. With
these additions the pay roll of the COM
pany will number 80 or 81 names.
This Is certainly most gratifying
for an institution that
began with ten men less than q year
ago. and we note it with much pride.
The first public suggestion Of the
of the Carriage Company
as it now exists, was made by the
and this paper was as
forcible as possible in urging the
citizens to do their share in getting it
on its feet. The people responded
and it Is matter Of sincere
that we are able to point
to the splendid progress made by the
as the fulfilment Of every
promise made.
