Notice to Subscrihers.

The lady who solicited subscribers
for the Weekly REGISTER last spring
reported verbally that some of those
who subscribed for six months asked
to have the paper discontinued at the
expiration OF that time. She failed,
however, to make out IL list of such
subscribers before going away, and
we are unable to comply with their
request without further notification
from them. We would therefore re-
quest that all subscribers who wish
Their paper discontinued at the end
of the ime for which they paid in ad-
vance, to drop Us card when that
time arrives go that their wishes may
be carried out. In the absence of
such notification it viii be tab Ell for
granted that the subscriber does not
wish his paper stopped, and it will

Under the popular management of
Mr.. LenhArt II will no douOt become
a popular and powerful factor IN the
continued growth of LaHarpe.
A funny story comes from the Pre-
sidiO. Ode Nichols returned from
the Cuban war after Lewis Coffield
had gone to Manila so they never
met. When Ode re.enlisted few
weeks ago and went to the Preside
where COtleld Is staying, he was
riding down the street in front of
the hos pital one day and saw Cofiield
standing on the pocch. He knew him
by description and pictures and
called out, "Hello Cotlield Cotlield
knew that Nichols was i'm camp and
the unhesitating answer came back,
"HellO Nichols Nichols rode on
and the exchange Of greetings be-
tween the strangers was all of that
first cDnVersnt ion.
y gang of workmen came over from
Ft, Scott saturday and viii pre-
pare the ground for the reCeI tiou of
the old Missouri Pacific depot which
Is 10 he con Verled into q freight room.
The new depot Is finished and paint
edaud as soon az the wires have been
changed ana an operators table put
i'm the utnJe Will he moved. The eX-
terror IS not quite finished, the water
pipes being unCOuuected and the
brick platform not yet laid. There
are three rooms, the center one being
the office ana the other two waiting
rooms The building is pretty one
ana the interior will be as neat and
cosy az the outside is handsome. All
the freight and baggage will he
handled from the other building and
the usual platform litter will thus be
done away with. Mr. CoZad said he
hoped to he moved by the latter part
of next week.
Capt. II. a. Ewing returned sun
day from his trip TO the q. A, II. En-
campment, having extended the trip
to Washington and Baltimore, be-
sides spending several days with his
brothers and other relatives in Chic
ago. He says that the most noticeable
thing in ali the journey was the con-
tinuous evidence of pros perity. From
the time he left lola till he got back
he was hardly out of hearing of the
sound of hammer and saw. Even i'm
little country villages in Missouri and
Illinois, new roofs could be seen,
while i'm all the great cities whole
blocks OF business houses were going
up while the factories every where
were making additions to increase
their capacity. He says it is no long
er n wonder to him that the price Of
lumber and other building material
has advanced. The only wonder Ia
that it can be supplied at any price.
The Captain was present at the great
Naval rOview aud saw the ship rs -
with the exception of the New York
and Oregon, that sunk Cerveras fleet.
1t was a great sight, for besides the
war ships there were ofcourse innum-
cradle other vessels, and all OF them
dazzling and glorious with the flag.

There was smashing big crowd in
lola Saturday-a crowd such as used
to gather only on Fourth of July and
circus day. The walks around the
square we're crowded and teams lined
the park fence from the south east
corner Of the park to the middle OF
the north side, and many had to find
room on side streets. \ REGISTER
reporter made the rounds, just from
curiosity, aud counted over 200 cOun-
try teams hilchpd lo The fence. II
would he % -ervut.Ve estimate to
say that 1000 country people traded
in lola that dav.

the field when he was husking corn
and they nibbled a. they walked
along with the result that all four

of a private nature. Fred wrote home

vanced from volunteer officers, must
be mustered out with their regiments

KNIGHTS OF PYTHIAS.
Lodge Organized in Juneau Last Week. Char
 ter Members. Officers.

ter Members. Officers.
 Alaska is getting into the fashion of organizing lodges and one of the latest aud best is the institution of lodge of Knights, which will be known as Alaska Lodge Mo- 1, Knights of Pythias, of Ju- neau.
 The officers officiating were Deputy Supreme Chancellor George A. Knight, formerly of Grand Forks Lodge No. l, North Dakota, assisted by Brothers Nat. G. Kaufman of Capital Lodge, Olympia, as deputy supreme chancel- Tor: Bro Cy. Atwell, as vice chancellor, of Pleasant Bay lodge; Past Chancellor J. W. Doran, of Minneapolis No. 1, as supreme preIate; c. Isaacs, past chau- cellor of Oakland Lodge No. lO3, as su- preme master of work; George E. James, as master at arms; Geo. B. Ed wards, inner guard; D. Brunner, outer guard.
 Deputy George A. Knight read the dispensation of the supreme chancellor after which there were initiated into the mysteries of the rank of page: John F. Malony, M. Wangeneeim, w. PedIar, B. M. Behrends, and A. M. Ross. The lodge then conferred the armOreal or esquire rank upon the candidates, after (which a recess was taken and the lodge adjourned to the Nevada Cafe and par took of a banquet. Upon returning to the lodge room the knight rank was conferred upon the candidates.
 This lodge starts off with eighteen charter members and at present is un- der the control of the Supreme Lodge until such time as it can be placed un- der the jurisdiction of a Grand Divis- ion near home. Already it has a large number of applications on file which will give the lodge plenty of work for some time to come.
 The charter members are Knights Judge c. s. Johnson, T. Rowe, l.. L. Blumenthal, A. c. Van Doren, R. P. Nelson, A. E. Hoggat, J. P. Whitney, and G. A. Knight.
