Evans BrOs/- have bought X. b.
StevensOn's cOruer lot, the one former
ly occupied by w. J. Evans and the
REGISTER office, and will Immediate
ly erect thereon handsome two
story brick building. There are no
two young men on earth who have
more honestly won success than "Ril-
lie" and Tell Evans and everybody re-
joices that they are to have business
home of their own. In connection
with the building which they are to
erect, II. b. Stevenson will build OH
the adjoining lots which he still owns.
The material has already been order
ed and the work will he crowded as
rapidly as the weather will permit.
so it will not be long until the larger
part of the hole left by our great fire
will be filed up. And everybody is
glad.
The REGISTER is of the opinion that
an old fashioned temperance revival
would not do lola any harm. There
are no Joints or dives here that we
know of, but somehow and somewhere
and sometimes some people get hold
of some whiskey and do themselves
and some other people a great deal of
harm by it. We hope therefore that
the lecture to be given at the Presby-
terrain church next Wednesday even
ing by Mr.. Moore, will be largely at
tended. From the best information
we can get Mr.. Moore is an eloquent
and interesting speaker and there is
every assurance that all who hear
him will be highly entertained. At
any rate he lecture will be free so
nothing will be lost. There will be
instrumental music by the orchestra,
and perhaps some vocal music. Ev-
erybOdy is invited.
w. \. Grace had to go out into Elm
township Wednesday to try law
suit. His client came after him with
big wagon drawn by a pair of little
mules. We saw the equipage as it
was driving out Of the city, and al
though it was raining bitterly Brother
Grace had folded his Umbrella and
was vigorously using it to give
''points" to the lazy and discouraged
team, while his client jerked at the
lines and industriously piled hieko-
ry with. 1t was the only funny sight
we saw all that dreary day. And
that was probably a good deal funnier
to us than it was to our handsome
friend Grace.
Percy Harris insists that he took a
lot of our Kansas books and the six
sheep-bOund volumes Of the Encycio-
pedia of Biography out of the book
case in our old Office at the time Ofthe
I fire and handed them to somebody to
I he carried to place Of safety. Is it
barely possible that the person who
took them still has them and has SIM
ply neglected to return them to us?
We should be mighty happy to get
those books back again.

There were two very Important
gatherings held this week, the re-
ports from which come too late for
editorial mention. One was the DEM
Ocratlc convention held at Albany,
y. Y, which chose delegates to the
Democratic National Convention and
instructed them for Hill,-which Is
what every Republican hoped would
be done. And the other was the
great Farmers Alliance-and-every-
bOdy-else Conference at st. Louis
which wrangled and tangled and fin
ally adjourned after making provision
for the calling of a convention Oh July
4, to nominate a presidential ticket,
which is what everybody expected
would be done. Full report next week.
The next medal contest will be Sat
urday night Feb. %, at Rock Creek
school house unless the weather Is bad,
i'm such case it will be postponed. An
admittance fee of five cents will be
taken from all over twelve years Of
age. Proceeds to be expended for
song books for the Rock Creek Sun
day School.
