was universally complimented.
1t vas a great day for red lemonade
and red soda.
The crowd was orderly and well-be-
haved and the peace officers had little
or nothing to do. There was lots of
drinking, but little drunkenness. All
seemed on their good behavior.
The rain was a little annoying but
it was too badly needed for any n to
register much of a kick.
S. w. Andrews had the misfortune
to have his buggy badly wrecked on
the al track during the afternoon.
For the number and variety of its
rigs the Valley can not be excelled.
The De Soto team plays fair ball,
but, oh! What terrible kickers they

the residence of her parents. She had
long been suffering from that dread
destroyer, consumption. Though her
friends believed she was doomed to
die soon, she seemed to become much
better a few days before she died. As
she sat up and dined with the family
that day and seemed in good spirits.
no one thought the end was so near.
Suddenly, about an hour afterward,
she became much worse and soon died
in the full possession of her mental
powers. Born June 18th, 1880. she
was 20 years, IL months and 10 days
old when death claimed her. She and
her twin sister, Miss Ella Alcorn, who
died near Tolu Oct. 18th, '99, were
born near Williamsville. Mo. Her re-
mains were buried on the 22d inst,
beside the grave of her sister, In the
Emmaus Church graveyard. Her par
ehts, a brother and three sisters, be-
sides numerous other relatives, survive
her.

Iron County Institute.

The Iron County Teachers Institute
will onven at Belleview, Monday,
June 10, 1901, and continue till the ex-
aminations for teachers certificates.
The late institute law requires all
teachers to attend the institute unless
they are attending school at the time
the institute is in session. Special ex-
aminations are provided for, but a GER
~tificate granted by the Commissioners
at a special examination continues in
force only till the next regular exam
ination. A certificate granted after
the June examination will become in
valid in August.
l shall hope to enroll in the coming
institute enough teachers to supply
the schools of the county.
The people of Belleview will spare
no pains to make the stay OF the teach
ers in their quiet village pleasant in
every respect.
Respectfully,
j. M. HAWKINS.
