Some Local Believers.

The Sunday issue of the Kansas
City journal Is largely devoted to
printing Prof Perrin, the Palmist's,
answers to inquiries sent with all i'm
preston of their hand to him by peo
pie all over the west. There were
about ten columns of answers In
very small type last Sunday and
among them were the following in.
teresting hand readings for lola
people:
Miss +. NJ. A., lola. You will mar.
ry in one year. You Will have three
children. You will die fairly well
of. (All the Misses were practically y
agreed upon the important question
of life. How many marriages, no W
many children aud how many dol
lsrs)
Mrs. A. NJ. NJ, lola. Marry in II
months. Have three children. Die
wealthy. That ought to be a salts
factory fate for most anybody.
Miss Fanny d., LaHarpe. You
would make splendid milliner.
Will marry in two months. Have
three children. Lucky day Wednes-
day.
Not single man in lola dared
tempt his fate and will have to anx-
iously await the future. Not 80 the
ladies. They can calmly look forward
to wealth, children and husbands.
The question is whether they can
carry so much joy around with them
all the time and not let the public
know that they are the ones prOphe-
sled about.

Another Large Hotel.

Ground was broken Tuesday morning

on a large hotel which j. ID. Mann
will erect OH the corner of Walnut

paint shop OF w. ID. Rowden has been
moved across onto the lot west of the

where Mann's house stood before the
lire will be occupied by the new

two storeys and basement, The
main building will be 100 feet long
and 2S feet wide and the ell will he 36
by 2S feet. The basement will extend

pectation. A barber shop and a
cigal factory will also be located i'm
the basement The hotel will con-
tain 80 rooms and will be run as a
dollar day house. Mr.. Mann will
fix it up throughout, and will hire
some good man to run it for him, If he
can find an experienced person who
exactly suits him, otherwise he will
