The 0ssian Street Fair.

The street Fair at Ossian last Friday
and Saturday was big successin point
of attendance and the entertainment
accorded the visitors. Some 200 from
Decorah went over on the Burlington
special and by team on Friday, and a
large crowd was present from that
immediate vicinity. The merchants
had tastely arranged booths in front of
their stores containing all kinds of
farm produce, and many farmers also
had individual displays on the streets.
Amusements of almost every nature
were provided and every one seemed
to thoroughly enjoy the occasion. One
thing is certain, that the good people
of Ossian proved themselves capable
ofentertaining large numbers of people,
and doing it well.

Two Splendid Positions.

Deputy auditor B. Il. Gunderson and
Exec. Clerk Henry Elvidge were each
notified last week of their choice to
responsible and lucrative positions in
the state capitol at Des Moines. Mr..
Gunderson gets clerkship in the office
of Auditor Merriam, at a salary of
$500 per year, and Mr.. Elvidge a
clerkship in the Office of Secretary OF
State Dobson, at about the same salary.
Both of these gentlemen are thorough
ly competent to fill these positions, and
their many friends congratulate them
upon securing them. 1t has long been
the opinion of many that Winneshiek
was not fairly represented at Des
Moines, and they are pleased to learn
of the success of the above named
gentlemen.
Auditor Masters is not prepared as
yet to announce his deputy to fill the
vacancy incurred by the resignation OF
Mr.. Gunderson.

Obituary..

Mrs. Simeon Drake died Tuesday
afternoon, Aug. %, 1899, at the age oG
So years.
Mary Adams was born i'm New LON
don, n. H., Jan. 10, 1913, and was
married in 1888 to Simon Drake. To-
this union five children were born
viz: DR.. Simon Drake, Mrs. Nike
Womeldort, Mrs. r.. Tucker, Fred
Drake and Mrs. Martin Rotner, of
whom the last two survives her. She
was also cousin to John Stinson, OF
Freeport. In 1856 they moved to Iowa.
and settled in Decorah township. After
acquiring considerable property in this
county they moved to South Dakota
Some after this her husband died and
she returned to Decoah, where she
has lived most of the time up to her
death, which was caused by dropsy.
The funeral services were conducted at {.
the residence of Mrs. Elsie Decker.
Rev. j. w. Allen, of the Baptist Churh
officiating.

THE CITY HALL
Will be Thoroughly RemOdelled and
Occupied by the City officials.

At last the substantial three stcry
building opposite the PUBLIC OPINION
office is to be put into the use for which
it was originally intended, that of a
city hall. Heretofore, for some reason
unknown to the general public, this
building has been used only for store
building for the apparatus of the fire
department.
The plans which are being drawn by
architect Bucknell call for q modern
front, with new door posts, doors, win
dows, etc., and for large, square plate
glass windows ON the second and third
floors, and cornice of stone work on
the top. An addition 25x259 will be
built on the rear, reaching to the
second story, which will afford three
rooms for the different fire companies,
beside an apparatus room, water closets,
etc. The second story will be fitted up
for the use of the city officials, with a
Mayor and Clerks office, Council room,
etc, and the third story will be used
for hall. A steam heating plant will
occupy the basement. The city has in
the past been paying rent in two build
ings, while the city hall was practically
empty, and this action on the part of
the council is to be complimented. 1t
will soon be model city hall building,
where the city's business will be trans
acted, as it should be.
