The Caldwell tribune. [volume] (Caldwell, Idaho Territory [Idaho]) 1883-1928, 1888-04-21

that very charming young lady
is the attraction over there for Mr.
Moe.
MIR. John Lamb, secretary Of
the Silver City Telegraph Com
pany, was in town last Monday
making arrangements for building
the line. This Office acknowledges
pleasant call.
"A fine S00-pound bell now
Xgraces the belfrey of the Presby-
terrain church. 1t is fine sound
ing bell, and its deep, mellow tones
| will awaken memories of early
moral trainings in the hardened
hearts Of many an old crusty sin
ner.
Little G. Blatchley have the
finest line of garden and field
seeds ever seen in Idaho. Their
stock comprises a full and COM
plete variety of both the famous
E. J. Bowen and D. NJ. Ferry test
seeds, the best brands in the world.
Call and see them.
"A letter to THE TRIBUNE from
Eli Wilson winds up as follows:
II find pretty hard times in Kan
sas. Crops have been poor for the
past two seasons, but promise to be
better this year. Give my best re-
CARDS to all the Caldwell folks you
meet. Hurrah for the Silver City
Telegraph and Caldwell energy"
The surveyors who were to To-
cate the telegraph line from here to
Silver City, have located q new
road to that place by which from
eight to ten miles will be saved.
They say the road can be put in
excellent shape at small expense,
and that by it Caldwell will be at
least five miles nearer to Silver
than any other point on the Short
Line.
Mr.. Herman Doerfel, of
Nebraska City, Nebraska, is fitting
up cigar factory in the room
formerly occupied by Eli. Wilson.
Mr.. Doerffel arrived in Caldwell
but last Sunday, and was so taken
by the thrifty appearance of our
lively town that he at once located
and as soon as his stock arrives
he will begin the manufacture of
cigars. 1t will be the first indus
try of the kind in the country, and
we predict a prosperous business
for him.
The free concert given by the
Presbyterian Society last week was
much enjoyed ty those present.
There were some excellent perfor-
mances by the little folks, an ele-
giant solo by Mrs. Strahorn, some
supurb instrumental music by the
Misses Dorman, some very comic
songs by the O. S. L. Quartette,
and an abundance of ice cream for
everybody fortunate enough to pos
sess two bits. The gross receipts
were about $45.
The friends Of Mr.. and Mrs.
M. B. Gwinn make raid on their
beautiful home last Thursday even
ing, took possession and proceeded
to enjoy social evening. Mr.. and
Mrs. Gwinn and Miss Josie Sulli-
van, who is guest at the house,
soon recovered from their 'sur-
prise" and proceeded to entertain
their unlimited guests in the most
charming manner. 1t proved to be
a most enjoyable affair throughout,
the elegant midnight lunch being
by no means the least attractive
feature.
Caldwell is almost paralyzed |
with joy. The Idaho City World
has unearthed map maker who
throws Clark, of Boise, so far in
the shade that there is no COMPARE
son at all. The World publishes
map that is truly perfection. We
struck our colors to Boise City's
man but We can only gaze with adj
miring awe up at the dizzy heighth
attained by the Idaho City artist.
Acting on the Worlds suggestion
that Caldwell might engage his
services, the Board of Trade i'm
offered him $4,000 to
get up a map of Caldwell and her
railroad connections. The offer has
been accepted, and Boise City's su-
premacy over Caldwell as rail
road center is nearly ended. We
will soon be connected with every
point of any Importance in North
America and Africa. Then will our
revenge be complete.
