piece requires forty characters and is one
Of the finest Xmas cantata's published.
The children are under the direction of
Prof. Kirk and this fact should insure
successful performance, The play
will be given in the Donovan Hall and
q small admission of ten cents will be
charged for those outside of the Sunday
school. This admission goes to defray
the expenses Of the hall, costumes, ETC.,
and we feel sure that anyone would
rather pay the small admission fee and
see the play in comfort, than to 60 to
the small church and have to stand and
be becrowded.

Alex. Mclean, founder of the townsite

Alex. Mclean, founder of the townsite
of Mclean in Alma township, whose
residence here dates back previous to the
organization of Cavalier county, left last
week with his family for the Pacific
coast to make their future home. Dur
ing his many years residence here Mr..
Mclean has enjoyed the distinction of
raising some of the biggest crops and
being one of the most successful all
round farmers in the county. Having a
store and post Office established at his
place it had naturally of late years be-
come halfway stopping place when
people from the Valley were making
trip through to the western part Of this
county. He will make his permanent
headquarters in the future at Seattle,
but intends spending the winter months
in Southern California.

Fire DESTROYED the Bellevue hotel at

Fire destroyed the Bellevue hotel at
Walhalla last Sunday afternoon. 1t
was about half past two o'clock when
the flames were first discovered and
within half an hour of that time the
roof had fallen in and nothing but pile
Of ashes remained of what such short
time before had been one of the best
known hotels in the northern part OF the
state. The building was the property OF
J. F. Mager and was insured for $2,oOo,
being about q third Of its actual value.
The landlord, s. l.. Davidson, is also a
heavy loser as none of the furniture or
household effects were saved. Many OF
the guests and the regular boarders at
the hotel suffer heavily by the loss OF
their personal effects. This is Walhalla's
first fire Of any considerable extent and
doubtless the town authorities will take
the necessary steps to replace the bucket
brigade, that did snch effective work at
Sundays fire, with properly equipped
fire department.

About forty couples were in attend
ance at the dance given by the K. OF z.
on Thanksgiving night ct the Donovan
Hall and the event is pronounced to
have been success in every particular.
The music by the local orchestra, as
usual, was fine and the floor in excellent
condition. A good portion ofthe numbers
wers round dances, which particularly
pleased those attending. Shortly before
midnight light refreshments were served
at the hall by Landlord Cramond, OF the
Columbia. The dancers kept step to
the merry strains Of the orchestra until
the lights went ont at about two O'Clock
the following morn.
