OLD JAIL SUFFICIENT.
The Proposition to Build New jail for
Wilson County Defented.

NEoDEsHA, Jan. 28.-The proposition
to authorize the county commissioners to
issue county warrants to the amount of
$4,000 to build and furnish d Jail for
Wilson county, was defeated by an en-
phatic majority. though only about two
tfths of the electors of the county voted.
1t is apparent from this decision that the
people of the county think that it is bet
ter to send prisoners to another county
for safe keeping than to spend from So
500 to $4,000 to build a secure, fire proof
decent Jail in the county.

vance of about % of a cent over last

met good buying orders, and showed
signs of recovering the decline but
everybody was inclined to wait for

caused heavy realizing and short sellers
took advantage of the situation and ham

ried into effect this afternoon.

members Of the Choral Society at the reg
ular rehearsal held last evening in Typo
graphical Hall. and good work was done in
preparing for the public production Of
Samson and Delilah." In addition, there
were also present a number Of other excel
lent local voices who have been invited to
join the chorus. Enthusiastic interest was
taken in the work. and the unusual spec
tacle was witnessed of one portion of the
chorus applauding the other. The ladies
clapped the male voices after they had
sung the dirge of Hebrew mourners. and
the compliment was returned when the
ladies' chorus was sung.
DIR. Frank T. Howe, vice president of the
society, and D. G. Pfeiffer, chairman of the
finance committee, made short talks to the
members in explanation of the proposed
plans of the board of directors. 1t Is
thought advisable to have a series of
papers on musical subjects read before the
society by musical authorities. not only to
increase the interest and Information of
the members of he society, but to form a
nucleus for q musical library, which it has
long been the desire Of the board Of direc-
tors to form. The plan received the hearty
approval Of the members, and steps will at
once be taken for the Inauguration Of the
