A Good Contract.

For two or three years last past the
milling and power company has
been furnishing power for the
water works at the rate of $1,000 per
year, month by month, without any
specific contract. Either party might
end the agreement at any time. This
agreement was not satisfactory to
either party. Pursuant to the recon-
mendation Of the Mayor, in his in
agural message, the council has closed
a contract with the milling company
for five years at $1,000 a year without
extra compensation for any extension
of water mains or increase of service.
The price agreed upon covers that.
There is clause however in the con-
tract of which they may take adyan-
tage. If it shall build a reservoir for
greater pressure then the milling
company agrees toreduce its pumping
charges just one half-to $1,000 year,
and agrees to give extra pressure for
fire service, as it does now.
Street lighting is part of the new
contract, the company agreeing to
furnish arc light at $50 per year each
until q. m. or S85 for all night. The
contract is just and equitable one.

WITH REGRET
The Announcement is Made
of the Early Departure of
the jacob Boys.

For nearly twenty years the name of
Jacob Bros. has stood for all that
is enterprising and honorable in bust
ness methods, and has become so
thoroughly Unidentified with Sank
Centre that it became part and parcel
of it. Jacob G.. and Fred jacob
came here as mere boys and engaged
In the clothing business, and from the
very first took leading pace in the
business circles of this city. Gentle
manly and affable Away they became
at once popular, and the high regard
they then inspired has deepsned and
broadened. Not only in business but
in social circles they have been prom
| inent factors. No social. gathering
of the younger element seems complete
without them.
| 1t is not strange that upon every
hand are heard expressions of deep
regret that they haYe concluded to
seek other and wider business fields,
| and yet it seems as if Sank Centre
were giving up part of herself in
bidding them farewell.
1t is no light and trivial matter for
them to tear loose from business and
social relations which have been to
them uniformly pleasant during all
these years. Both of them declare
that they Eever expect to find any
other place which will ever be 'home"
to them. Wherever they go they will
take with them the best wishes of this
entire community which will feel their
loss deeply.

A Pleasant Reference to
This City and. the
Convention.

Miss Martha Scott Anderson, one
of the bright women who attended the
Women's Club convention held here
last week, and who also took con-
spicuous part in the proceedings, is
the Minneapolis Journals editor OF
the Women's department of that
paper, and she has this to say, in
part, of the conventions:
The meeting of the club women of
the Sixth congressional district at
Sank Centre this week was most en-
joyable club gathering. The ar
rangements were admirable, every
provision having been made for the
comfort and pleasure of the visitors;
the spirit of hospitality was delight
full, and the enthusiasm of the visitors
and their interest in each others
plans and ideas was stimulating.
The pretty little town came in for
its full share of admiration, the wide
streets, we'll kept shrubbery and trees,
the evidences of extensive gardening
and the street signs calling attention

THE NEW FIRM.
Experienced and Popular St.
Cloud Men Succeed
Jacob Bros.

D. G. Abeles, of the firm of Abeles
Bros. who have purchased and will
take possession OF the jacob Bros.
& Mack business about the middle of
May, was in the city on Monday.
For sixteen years the firm composed
of D. G. and H. S., Abeles have been
leading clothiers of st. Cloud, and
have built up an enormous business.
They are broad-gauged, enterprising
wide-awake business men, and will en-
gage here with the same energy and
zeal which has characterized them
there.
Mr.. Abeles says that Judge Collins,
who recently purchased the building
which they will occupy-the jacob
place-will make very extensive adj
ditions and improvements this season.
The front will be taken out and
pressed brick substituted, the plate
glass part of it will be changed. eel
lar will be excayated, a steam heating
plant put in, and the building eX-
tended twenty feet in the rear.
New floors and steel ceiling will also
be added, and, in fact a new structure
made of the old one. This will be one
of the several notable improvements
to be made in Sank Centre this
season. While the city will sincerely
regret the departure of Jacobi-Bros.
& Mack, it will warmly welcome
Abeles Bros.
The management will be in COM
petent hands, D. Guthman, a young
man whose life's experience has been
in the clothing business in Chicago will
be at the head of the business. He
brings with him the best of business
and social credentials. He will be

terment, in which it has had the active
assistance of the city officials, the
newspapers and the business men who
Lave given advice, encouragement,
and financial aid.
The Gradatim club is tourist club
organized in 1895 and federated In
the same year. Its membership is
limited to thirty members. For four
years foreign lands were studied, but
for the last three years the United
States has been the study field. This
year parliamentary law, current
events, book reviews and a serial
story were added to the regular pro-
gram.
The first work undertaken by the
club for civic betterment was along
the lines of village improvement. 1t
was decided that the best way to get
at this was through the children,
whose love of the beautiful would be
carried home to the parents. Flower
seed was distributed in the schools
and prizes offered for the best col
lection of flowers raised from them.
Each year flower show has been
held in the school building and this
has become so popular that an adj
mission fee is cheerfully paid. The
committee of the club has given way
TO a similar committee of women
auxiliary to the board of trade in the
belief that the work would be strength
more directly together.
The passage of the curfew ordinance
and an anticipating ordinance and
the establishment of reading and rest
rooms are due to the efforts OF the
club women.
Mrs. E j. Lewis, president of the
district organization, is president of
Gradatim; Mrs. Charlotte Barteau,
first vice president; Mrs. Alice A.
Kelsey, second vice president; Mrs.
Elizabeth c. Beidleman, recorder;
Miss Bessie Robbins, corresponding
secretary; Mrs. Margaret NJ. Kells,
treasurer.
The Ladies' Musical club is small
err and newer organization. 1t has
eighteen active and five associate
members and has been organized
two years. 1t makes study of COM
positions of the greatest masters. It's
president is Mrs. James Ingram, who
made the report of the club work; vice
president, Mrs. Maude Dewey; secre-
tary and treasures, Mrs. Gertie Gill
man.
The closing business of the conven-
ton was the election of officers, which
resulted as follows: President Mrs. E.
j. Lewis, Sank Centre; vice president,
Mrs, Stone. Park Rapids; recording
secretary, Mrs. Alvah Eastman, ST.
Cloud; corresponding secretary, Mrs.
Edgar M. Hoover, Little Falls; treas
urer, Mrs. F. B. Van Hoesen. Alex
andria. The place of the next meeting
was left to the executive committee.
An interesting point in connection
with the meeting and one rejecting
great credit on the hostess of the con-
vention and on the program committee
was that the meeting proved conclu-
siye argument in favor of a perma-
nent district organization. The wo-
men were called together for pleas
ant literary and social meeting in
which they could become acquainted
