At various times there has been
considerable talk INDUCED in, in re-
lation to the purchase of coal by
school district No. 8, during the
past winter. We have gathered the
following facts and figures on the
subject, taken from bills on file in
the clerk b office:

both in singing and recitations.
Mrs. Fink favored the audience with
atrecitation. The music was apprc-

Let us have Il Band.

Adam Dresen is making a strong
effort to re-establish the Mineral Point
band. He has had several good mu-
sicians visit this place lately for the
purI ose of finding employment or
going into business. The chances are
that at least one or two of these
parties will locate here in the near
future; and if the band is started
by the excellent musicians already
here there can be no doubt but that
other band men will come and locate
later This will, undoubtedly, be
pleasant news to the people of Mineral
Point, who appreciate the advantages
of having a good band. And surely
there is nothing more desirable for
any town or city to have than a good
band, and nothing brings more pure
Joy and pleasure to the hearts of a
majority of people than good band
music. And now that Mineral Point
is on the high road of progress and
prosperity, we should, by all means,
have first class band. 1t will not
cost a great deal to maintain a band
after it is once on good solid footing
About $500 per year paid the ordinary
expenses of the old Mineral Point
band; about 5000 of this amount
was paid by the band members, and
the balance was raised by subscription
and concerts. 1t will, however, take
quite sum of money to fit out a
band in first class order, and we under
stand that some time in the near
future, a committee will be appointed
to circulate a subscription list among
our people; and if reasonable portion
of the necessary amount should be
subscribed to be paid after a band
has been duly organized, the band
members will then put in the balance;
and we hope to have band that will
be credit to our booming city.

Prince OF Wales Fifty Years Old.
New York san.


The Prince OF Wales Will celebrate his 5oth
birthday on November 9. There is to be great
family gathering at Buckingham. and accord
ing TO present indications the mansion will not
be large enough 10 hold the presents of which
the prince will be the happy recipient. Kaiser
Wilhelm's gift Is said to be worth 100000 marks,
and il viii be presented by Prince Henry of
PrussIa-sn arrangement probably intended to
convince the world that uncle and nephew are
now the best of friends. The Prince of Wales
is really in some respects hardly used man.
He has been on his very best behavior since the
baccarat scandal, opening schools and churches
and charitable institutions by the
dozen; making pretty, inoffensive speeches,
and generally resuming the role of "Albert Ed
ward, the Good" On last Monday, for instance,
he attended the celebration of the centenary of
the London Veterinary college and favored the
company with some harmless platitufes about
dogs and horses being friends of man, and so on
Everybody thought he acquitted himself with
great credit, but today newspapers give space to
a letter from some fierce snti-vivisectionist who
deuounces the prince as a hypocrlte, because,
foTsooth, hT presided couple of years ago over
g he ting in honor OF Pasteur "who caused
hundreds OF dogs 10 die in agouies of rabies"
and some time afterwaTd allowed his honored
mother to receive at Osborne, without word of
warming, such vivisectors as NJ. Chauveau who
has SAVE across the backbones of eighty living
horses and asses" The prince may be excused
for thinking that ii is very hard TO please some
people, aad possibly for regretting that there il
evidently no living ass whose backbone has not
been operated uuoD
