"A pleasant dancing party took
place in Central Music hall after the
Hatton club concert Tuesday night.
The attendance was large. Music was
furnished by Schultz.
The harbor piers are to be ex-
tended farther into the lake. The con
tract has been let by the government
to Chicago contractors for building
three cribs, two of which are to be
added to the south and one to the
north pier. The work will be begun
soon.
1t has been admitted by all that
the lecture course arranged by the Ep-
worth League has been one of the best
ever brought to this city. In order
that we may have the best talent visit
us from time to time, it is necessary
that under whatsoever organization.
these high grade lectures and concerts
are given, our citizens should rally to
their support. The present course has
not enjoyed the liberal patronage it
should have had. We hear that in
order that the young people of the Ep-

their venture, they will need to have
packed house on the occasion Of Mrs.
Scott Siddons visit. Mrs. Scott-Sid-
dons and Clara Murray will give an
entertainment we'll deserving your pat
ronage. Let each one make it point
to attend this excellent entertainment
next Saturday evening, April Goth, and
encourage the young people. Do not
let them be the losers by bringing to
our city such entertainments as they
have given us this winter.
The HattOnS did themselves proud
again on Tuesday evening and gave us
a concert of the popular order which
/ pleased the large audience and reflect
ed credit upon our crack musical
organization. Many of the airs were
familiar to the hearers and they seemed
to strike chord of approval, and
called forth hearty applause. Master
Charles Schmid proved to be wonder
on the violin, and his numbers we're
heartily enoored: He responded twice,
much to the delight of the audience.
Miss Ruth Ray, Of Kemper hall, sang
two numbers and upon her second ap-
pearance her hearers insisted upon
response to their hearty encore. Miss
Ray has a rich cOntraltO voice of fine
quality, and her singing is most pleas
ing. The pastoral glee sung by Miss
Head and Messrs. Mcdowell and Bohm-
rich, was one of the pleasing numbers,
and these well-known singers rendered
the piece we'll. The choruses were all
we'll given, the audience being especially
pleased with Dame burden and the
National airs. Mrs. Hollister and Mrs.
Mcdowell played the accOmpani-
ments in their usual good style.
On the whole the concert was one of
the most pleasing of the season, and
we hope to be favored with another in
the near future. After the program
about one hundred Of the audience re-
manned and enjoyed an informal dance.
Schultz furnished the music.
I The deal between the City Water
company and the Park City and North
Side Water companies has at last been
consummated. The deeds have been
made out and signed, which together
with the bond is held in escrow by G.
C. Brown, and to all intents and pur-
poses the two water companies care the
property Of the new company. The
consideration named in the deal is
$15, 900 for the Park City property and
SIS, 900 for the North Side company,
payment to be made in five per cent.
second mortgage bonds of the City
Water company. This contamination
of the long talked of deal means great
deal to the city and places the new
company III a position to float their
bonds at once. In fact, demand has
already sprung up among small local
capitalists, one man especially being
very anxious to invest 81 1000 in them.
The securities will be most desirable;
it is thought may all be placed in short
order A gentleman conversant with
the whole scheme said to a reporter
this morning: 81 believe now that the
new water works will be paid for and
owned by the city at the end of ten
years, and in another decade they will
earn enough to wipe out the city debt"
This is certainly most encouraging and
we are glad to be able to record sub
stantial progress toward that end. In
short, the water works in scheme and
in fact have never been in anything
near as good shape as it is right now.
We hope nothing may interfere to in
any way interrupt the work.
