Lecture Course.

After two weeks canvassing the BOYS
of the Philomathian Club find that
they have placed only 175 season tick
cts. Many Of our citizens do not seem
TO realize the risk the boys run as they
are obliged to contract for the talen,
at once in order to secure whom they
want. They have today closed con.
tract for the following lecturers:
Gen. j. ID. Gordon.
Col. L. F. Copeland.
John Temple Graves.
DIR. Frank Crane.
VIM. Hswley Smith.
This course will cost, including hall
rent, $4,000 and the season tickets al
ready sold will pay but half of this
amount. The boys have decided those
who subscribed and relieved them OF
rat much of the responsibility are en-
titled to some proofs of appreciation
bv them for the kindness shown. II
view of this, all season tickets not sub
scribed for by August lst, will cos
$500. Those wishing season tickets
at $3.50 will leave their names witt
any of the members of the Club, or b
w. Carlisle before August LIST.

North Western Establishes
New Freight Division in
Missouri ValleV.

Unlike the average rumor, the report
which has been so persistently circulat
ed for several weeks concerning 9
change which the North Western
had IN contemplation, has proven to
be we'll founded aud now Bulletins
have been posted ut company head
quarters Officially confirming the reports
and transferring the freight division
from Carroll to Missouri Valley. This
change relates to way freight crews
who will now have several hours "lay
over" in this city arriving here in the
evening and remaining over night aud
returning to Boone the next morning.
After giving it thorough test the
company decided that the operation of
the way freights out of Carroll was
decidedly Impractical inasmuch as il
kept the train crews on the road from
fifteen to eighteen hours per day
while the opei alton of the trains out
of Missouri Valley gives the crews sew
eral hours lay over here, arriving
in the afternoon and remaining over
night here, returning to Boone the
next day. Just what this change
means for Mo Valley no one is as yet
in position to speak but it is certain
this city will be decidedly benefited BY
the change as il eventually means the
removal at least ten or fife en- familie,
from points along the line to Mo Val

Latest Social Event.

With the coming of July's torrid
weather society has deserted the par
lors and drawing rooms in favor of out
door amusements and entertainment,
which not only insures more comfort
and rarity but affords a much better
opportunity for the display of pretty
cool summer gowns which in them
selves are delight to look upon. The
latest favor at the hands of society in
our town was a porch party given
somewhat as "house- warming" by
Mrs G w Colt to about fifty OF her
lady friends, at her new home, last
evening, from five to nine O'Clock.
The grounds were beautiful with
grass as smooth as a velvet carpet
and the brilliant flowers standing out
in strong relief, the spacious veranda
was plentifully furnished with easy
chairs, hassocks and all sorts OF com
Portable seats which we're soon filled
with guests, who arranged themselves
in congenial groups and chatted of all
things dear to the feminine heart, but
all united in congratulating Mrs Colt
upon her beautiful new home and its
surroundings.
Refreshments oothsome and abund-
mt were served at six O'Clock to the
guests upon the porch. AT this time
v delightfully."- cool breeze sprang up
and rendered the temperature most
enjoyable.
After refreshments the guests being
invited to make themselves at home
scattered themselves over the lawn, OF
repaired indoors to take a closer in
spection of the new home, the rooms
of which were beautifully decorated
for the occasion, the color scheme be
ing yellow and green; the reception
hall being deliberately decorated with
growing palms and ferns; the parlol
decorations, roses and carnations; the
dining room was mass of midsum.

A Pleasant Trip.

The editor of The DAILY TIMES ha
the pleasure of attending the meetin
of the Upper Des Moines Editorial AS
|sociation, in Des Moines, last week.
and the experience was very pleasant
one, as we found the members Of the
Association very pleasant set of gen
tlemen to meet. Their discussions of
subjects pertaining to the printing ard
publishing business were very inter-
estlng and instructive. The citizens
of Des MOines entertained the editors
IN line style while they were in thu
city. We hope to have the pleasure of
meeting the boys of the Upper, Dies
Moines Editorial Association again.
AL Adams, Of the Humboldt Independ.
ent, was secretary of the Association.
and acted as general manager of cere-
monies and filled the position to per
lection. Al is not handsome, but he ia
a hustler. and his work during the
meeting demonstrated that he has tho
good of the gang" at heart.
Des Moines is a fine city and u pleas.
ant place to spend few days Tho
city is paved throughout with brick
paving, the brick being made in that
city and we don't know of any city in
Iowa that has as fine streets as Des
Moines. We think the finest store in
Iowa is in Dies Moines. We had the
pleasure of being shown through the
great Harris Emery store while in the
city, and it is beauty, far ahead of
anything to be found in Omaha. 1t is
eight stories high and one hundred and
sixty foot front, built of white brick
and superbly finished throughout. It
is filed throughout with mapnificent
stock of (irst-class goods, no "seconds's
being found in this place. /"
While in the city we met w Il
Ho,ey, formerly q dancing teacher in
this city. He has class Of 500 schol-
ars in the city and is doing finely. We
also met Chas Cominsky, who learned
his trade n Vie TIMES office. He is
now on the Iowa Homestead and ia
getting along first class. He says that
he intends visiting his old friends in
this city during the summer.
Taken altogether we think the trip
was very pleasant one. and believe
that every citizen of Iowa, at some
time during his life, should visit the
Capital City and see what beautiful
place it is.
