One of the choicest musical entertain
ments ever given in McCook was that fur
nished by the Chicago Lady quartette
in the Lutheran church on Tuesday even
ing. By some misunderstanding between
Manager Harris of Cambridge and the
manager ofthe quartette, no arrangement
had been made for their appearance here.
But the Endeavor society took the matter
in hand and provided for an entertain
ment in the Lutheran church, making
the fact known as best they could in the
brief time that remained. The rainy
night and shortness of time of announce
ment, however, conspired to make the
audience very small; but the audience
made up in enthusiastic appreciation all
that was lacking in numbers. On the
following evening, the young ladies ap-
peared in the church again, under the
same auspices, before a good house, and
once more proved themselves to be first
class artists of a refined and charming
sort. We hope they may come this way
again, and under more favorable circum-
stances.

inaugurated to the memory of the peer

1t is said that there are forty or more
new hotel enterprises in progress in the
vicinity of the Worlds fair grounds in
Chicago, and that a large proportion OF
them are frauds, having no more sub
s~tantial foundation than may be found
in circular letters soliciting cash sub
scriptions for alleged stock. These en-
terprises purport to be cooperative hotel
schemes designed to supply the demand
for Accommodations, and the innocent vic
tim who is asked to take stock is assured
the exposition. It is a good plan to
steer clear of such enticing schemes.
The man who subscribes stock in an en-
terprise that exists only on paper is sure
to lose his money.
