Introduce A Pleasant
Feature.

Green & Bentley, the druggists, did
a very handsome thing Christmas
afternoon. They served lunch to
business men and their help to the
number of over two hundred. The

make music for the guests of the
evening and everything that was
possible was done to make the &C.
casion pleasant to the fullest extent.
The tables were spread on the second
floor over the book department.
The menu was quite elaborate and
embraced turkey done to a turn and
served with the usual side dishes.
There was excellent coffee and just
what was needed at the right time.
Aside from the hospitality of the af-
fair the "Iunch" was greatly to be
appreciated by the business men of
the city. 1t was Christmas eve, the
busiest that the city Of Oskaloosa has
eve known and there we're many
merchants and hosts of clerks who
had but a moment to satisfy hunger.
The Green & Bentley lunch came in
the right place and at the right time.
1t was a very bospitable act on the
part of the firm and one of the most
pleasant affairs of the holiday pro-
gram. The gentlemen who were re-
sponsible for the entertainment have
the thanks of a large number of
Oskaloosa business people.

RECEIVES Il NOTE.
Preliminary Joint Demand Pre-
scented to China.

Picking, Dec. 26.-The preliminary
Joint note was delivered Tuesday to the
Chinese. Ii Hung Chang found that
he was unable to attend the meeting
oil the ministers, and his credentials
and those of Prince Ching were pre-
sented by the latter to the foreign en-
voys.
Prince Ching, replying to the Spanish
minister, Senior B. ]. De Cologan, who
presented the note, said he would inn
mediately communicate its contents to
the emperor, and assured the ministers
that a speedy reply was the desire of
the court, as it felt that all China wants
peace and prosperity.
Received by Prince Ching.
Paris, Dec. 26.-A dispatch to the
Havas agency from Peking says: "The
ministers assembled at the residence of
Senior B. j. de Cologan (the Spanish
minister and the doyen of the diplomat
ic corps) and received Prince Ching, to
whom the Spanish minister handed the
joint note of the powers. Ii Hung
Chang, who is still i'll, asked to be ex-
cused. Prince Ching said:
please present greetings to my political
friends of Leavenworth and Kansas. The
principles of democracy still live and the
policies for which the fusion forces fought
will yet be indicated. We can enter the
twentieth century with the confident be-
lief that the people will soon return to the
teachings of the fathers and TO the tradi-
tions of the republic"
Thinks China VIII Accept.
London, Dec. 26.-According to a
news agency dispatch from Picking,
dated December "a, the foreign minis
tiers there are unanimously of opin-
ion that China will accept the condi-
tions imposed by the joint note of the
powers within a month. The note was
started on its way to the dowager
empress and the emperor Immediately
after its presentation, the dispatch
says, but wire communication is slow
and it probably will not reach them
until December 81.
Significant Action.

respondent of the Standard, telegraph
ing December "a, says: The govern
ment has arrested Prince Tuan and
Prince Chaung IN the borders of the
Shan 81 and Shen 81 provinces. Yu
Hsien has been ordered to return to
Sian Flu forthwith, to be executed, it
is supposed. 1t is inferred from these
reports that the imperial authorities
are preparing to concede the demands
