a brother of Smith Curtis who has
been resident of New York for the
past few years came here last week to
remain for an indefinite time. He
was first here in 1855 when he had
charge of the Lyman Morse mill over
on the Iowa River. He is a healthy
robust specimen, and will enjoy life
in this western country to which he
is not stranger, having visited here
four years ago.

The Salvation Army was on the
street Saturday with music and an
address that fell upon unwilling or
Indifferent ears. 1t is strange that
they should remain in CreSco where
there is practically nothing for them
to do, while the cities, with their
slums, offer such a field for their
labors and where they can be produc-
tive of so much good. The two years
they have spent in Cresco are two years
OiiioNli away. w lull CISuU GlluTC!lGS
here, their clergy and other working
members are able to reach all who
can be brought under gospel influence.
The new band organized last fall has
commenced work again, having en-
gagged Prof. John Thaler. of Calmar as
instructor. Their first meeting with
him was last Friday evening and al
though not irregular rehearsal, showed
that the band contained the requisite
timber to make it a success. It is
composed of all the old band boys of
the town and the best of the younger
ones, and with the encouragement and
support of the citizens will under the
direction of Prof. Thaler, thorough
musician and gentleman, soon be a
credit and a source of pleasure to our
town.
