the Chinese equivalent for trade

Surprise Party.

Last evening as Mr. and Mrs Hennesy were
nodding over the newspapers and sitting With
"four feet on the fender" their home was in
vaded by an une expected company. When the
door was opened in they came, some in single
file, by couples and in crowds, and each and
everyone insisted upon salutirg the hostess at
one and the same time. Although unlimited
the guests found they were not unwelcome and
in very short time every one was feeling az
thoroughly at home as if they had always lived
with Mr. and Mrs Hcnnesy in that particular
house.
The perpetrators of the surprise were the
drill team of the d of q.
High five was indulgsd in until late hour,
then the folks began to be hungry and there
was general opening of baskets which seemed
to be found on every table and in dozen
hooks and corners Tho baakets were loaded
when opened, but they were rather light when
they were carried home, it was the guests who
we're loaded then.
Before leaving the Drill team presented Mn
Hennesy with beautiful hand painted tea
set, which made the recipient very happy
woman.
There were about thirty-ivc in the party
and surprised and suprsers were made yer,
happy by the courtesy and bad very jolly
evening.

Says Petition Will Carry.

In this mornings issue of the Coun-
Gil Bluffs Nonpareil is published the
following telegram sent by the local
correspondent of that paper:
Missouri Valley, Dec. 1.-The con-
sent petition now being circulated by
the saloon men in this city is meeting
with very little opposition and from
all indications it will carry, notwith-
standing the fact that it requires 80
per cent of the legal voters to secure
the same. The business men of the
city are almost unanimous in favor of
the petition and number of the lead
ing merchants and citizens are helping
in the canvas. A short time ego an
attempt was made to secure a county
petition but it failed, owing to the
strong opposition on the eastern side
of the county 1t is a noticeable fact
that most of the opposition to saloons
heing run in this city comes from par
ties residing in other towns, who have
no business interests in this city 1t
is no longer doubted that the petition
will carry.

Much Stealing Charged Along
Northwestern Line.

A regular volcano, submarine
niue, an earthquake ~ something is
sumbering along the line of the
Northwestern railway Just now, which
we understand is likely to explode at
any minute and take in a good many
people.
For long time The Northwestern
officials have suspected that much of
their material for bridges, etc. along
the line of the new double track was
being appropriated by those who had
no right to it. Investigation has cou-
tirmed the fact. and now we under
stand detectives are all along the line
looking up the guilty parties. Two
weeks ago the trouble for the malefac-
tors began, and dozens of officials and
men in the work were asked to resign
or fired peremtorlly. Many went into
headquarters and put up their stories ,
to get back on. Some made the rifle
and some did not. Now the real guilty ,,
ones are likely to taste dose of the
law.
1t is said that one or two contractors
have requisitioned enough material to
almost build the double track bridges,
that others have sold the stuff to farm
ers and that much of it is in barns and
cribs now; others have lot of good
eighty ties cut up for stovewood,
one man having several years sup
ply on hand
And so it has been going. Every
man who has been implicated, or has
even known of the stealing, is being
searched out and all will be on the
carpet or before his honor, the judge,
soon. The nervous tension has spread
all along the line, and all feel that
their jobs are sitting loose on the
books.
Some prominent citizens may be
implicated, it is said, although we
hope such is not the case, and that
the trouble may be overestimated. =
