A representative of the firm of L. r.
Close " CO., scenic painters of Kansas
City, was III Audubon last week, and
perfected arrangements with Russell
x Sons to furnish scenery for their
opera house. They contracted for about
Sooo worth of scenery, including an ele-
CANT drop curtain, six scenes with pro-
fuse drapcries, etc. 1t is needless to
state that this enterprising firm will
finish the house in the best manner
possible.
At its last meeting the board of SUI
pervisors considered the ACCESSIBILITY of
dividing the county into supervisor
districts. Such division has been
much discussed and frequently recon-
mended, as q means to secure better
apportionment of representation on the
board. After considering it in all of
its various phases our present solons
abandoned the scheme, in the belief
that it would not be as satisfactory as
the present system.
