The home of Mrs. A. j. Jones was the
scene of one Of the most delightful en-
tertainments ever given in Custer Thurs
day. At two o'clock fifteen young ladies
assembled with thimble and needle in
response to an invitation to "help me
sew my rags" They were very nimble
and when the train brought our illus
trous visitor w. J. Bryan, all were given
q recess. After returning all were faith
ful to the work, striving for the prizes.
At Blk o'clock they were invited to the
dining room which was transformed in
to a fairy bower. The table decorations
were roses and smilax. The menu was
elaborate and elegant. After discussing
the viands, and making guesses as to
who wrote the rhyming acceptance OF
their invitations, the prizes were award
ed to Miss Towner and Miss Richardson.
Later each young lady, with a rose SO
emblematic of their own charm, wished
Mr.. and Mrs. Jones good night. and
went to their homes feeling sure they
had enjoyed 3 pleasure never to be for
gotten.

A motion for a mandanus to compel
the town board Of Custer to make a levy
III Custer City property, to pay a por-
ton Of road district No. 6 warrants
while the town formed a part of that
district, was heard before Judge MCGEE
IN Rapid last Tuesday. BY the laws of
1895 Custer was segregated and created
an independent district and the town
board authorized to levy taxes for road
purposes. The application was made
Oh the ground that the taxable property
in road district No. 6, as now constituted
is insufficient to pay the outstanding
warrants. The answer OF the town
board raiaed several questions OF fact,
and among Other things showed that the
taxable property was sufficient to pay
the Indebtedness. and also alleged that
portions Of the warrants were illegally
issued. The question OF fact, if tried at
all, will bc tried at the May term Of cir,
cult court. For the present, and until
the figures shown by the record can be
successfully refuted, no order of man
damus will insue.

Do You Want a Calendar

The biggest-and best-calendar eyer
issued by any American railroad is now
being distributed by the Burlington
Route. 1t has twelve sheets, one for
each month of the year. On each sheet
is a striking illustration of some feature
of the Burlington's service or Of the
territory reached by its lines-the gov
eminent fast mail running at full speed;
a tourist car on its way to California;
engine 1891, the largest passenger engine
in the world a library car; a compart-
ment sleeper; the Burlington station at
Omaha a dining car a monster freight
train Estes Park, Colo; the plunge
bath at Hot Springs, S. d., Yellowstone
Falls, etc. The drawings from which
the pictures were made are by Louis
B%raunhold, of Chicago, and cost several
hundred dollars The size of the calen-
dar is 22x2S. The dates are in big type
which can be read at a distance Of 80
feet. For business Offices the Burling.
toncalendar is simply invaluable. Pur-
chased In large quantities the calendars
cost the Burlington Route q cents
apiece. With postage, packing, etc.
they represent an investment of about
80 cents. Our price is % cents-10 cents
less than cost. Write for one stamps
will do. If it is not satisfactory, send il
back and your money will be promptly
refunded.
