greeted the efforts of each lady and gentle

tlemen of this city and Pleasant View. At
each meeting of the Union numerous ap-

and commands but a small attendance of
its memb bers, but under this new idea,
which has been put into effect by the mem
bers of the Union, the meetings are at
tended by almost every member of the
organization, and the next meeting Is
looked forward to with pleasant antici-
pations.
At the business meeting last evening
President Cooney occupied the chair, and
Miss Martha Fountain was elected secre-
tary pro tenn. Seven applications for
membership were received and referred to
the committee on membership. The ex-
ecutive committee was instructed to make
arrangements to hold q concert during the
month of September.
The following committee then prepared
q program for the evenings entertain
ment: Charles Tierney, John Farrell and
John F. Kelly. The program as made up
of the following members served to pass
away the remainder of the evening in a
manner creditabls to the participants and
