Miss Maude Beck gave a party
Tuesday evening in homer of Miss
Nettie Wise. A very pleasant time is
reported.
Homer Fowler, of Usage, who help
ed to solicit aid for the Nebraska suf-
ferers last winter, asks the REGISTER
to say that he received local papers
from Nebraska giving a report of the
receipt of the aid sent from this coun-
ty, showing that it was honestly
handled and was placed where it was
most needed. Mr.. Fowler says he
recently received a letter from the
man who was sent here last year by
the committee, in which it was stated
that the crops has again been total
failure and the people would have to
move out.
Union: The County Commissioners
are thinking of establishing a rock
pile, at the jail In lola, authorized by
law. This would be good thing, and
we hope it will go through, as it will
cause the tramp element to steer clear
of Allen county. 1t will stop many
of the small misdemeanors, for with
the rock pile staring them in the face,
these evil doors will be scarce. 1t
will be good thing to try the ex-
pertinent. We are in hopes Hum
boldt will soon have q rock pile and a
calaboOse so that we can have the
rock applied on our streets. Many
towns are establishing rock piles, and
find them paying experiments.
The Jubilee-ers had a full house
Tuesday night and they gave jolly,
rOllicking entertainment. They
sang for two straight hours, with
hardly breathing spell. And while
there was only one good singer in the
Outfit.-and that was the pretty So
prano,-yet when they all sang to-
gether they made good music. The
charm of all jubilee singing is the
vivacitY that is put into it, the evil
dent enjoyment of the singers them
seleves. The good humor of the Ten
nesseeans was irresistible, and the
audience caught the contagiOn and
spent most Of the two hours shrieking
with joy.
