most extraordinary treat, and to that
of Burlington, Iowa, to appear in song
recitals for three afternoons and even
ings In their beautiful wareroom, be-
ginning Monday.
Miss Nichols enjoys the distinction
of being one of Burlington's leading vo-
calists and is said to possesses a most
remarkable voice. Her recent appear
ance there as "Buttercup" in Gilbert
and Sullivan's opera, "Pinafore," Gre
ated the most favorable impression and
drew for her the unstinted praise of
Burlington critics and press. Miss Mich
oils is the soloist at the First Presbyte-
rian church of that city and with her
charming personality and beautiful
yoice she has won place in the hearts
Of her home auditors.
the space at the EaGie Company's big
wareroom will be reserved for the la
dies and all lovers of vocal music are
cordially invited to be present and
bring their friends. Monday afternoon
and evening, Tuesday evening, Wednes-
day afternoon and evening ''the big
store" is Of course open to the general
public to enjoy this musical treat, and
piano buyers are never excluded.
Three more pianos were sold yester-
weather, which is certainly evidence of
the drawing power established by the
great "cut price sale" The big stock
sput on display one week ago is being
rapidly reduced and as the closing days
are approaching many prospective buy
ers are crowding the wareroom floor
making selections.
One buyer, who has made par
tial selection some days ago, called last
evening to find the PIANO of his choice
had been sold. This gentleman had not
only visited every local piano house, but
had also received prices from Omaha,
Chicago and Des Moines, and fully APP
preciated the great bargains offered at
"the big store" He consequently made
another selection, settled for it forth
with and another wife will be most
happily surprised on Christmas eve.
This is the opportunity of lifetime
to buy piano at such phenomenally
reduced prices and the contemplating
purchaser will be wise to take advan-
tage of the cut. If you have not in
tended to buy for perhaps two years to
come, it's a good investment for you.
Every buyer now saves from SIS to 500
and the great variety of styles and
make gives the buyer an opportunity
for the most deliberate selection. Re-
the place.

Nine years ago, while working for r.
Oscars / became blind from granulated
lids / doctored with two Marshall
town doctors and grew worse, then
paid $50 to an eminent Cedar Rapids
specialist, but only to grow worse.
finally came to Dr. Wood, the eye and
ear specialist Of Marshalltown, and he
cured me. and have had perfect eyes
since. I heartily recommend him to
the public, and especially since he has
had the experience of several years in
European hospitals, where he could see
and treat thousands of cases yearly. /
am only too glad to offer this testimony
to his skill and any further information
will be given upon request.

were allowed to accumulate to such an
extent that it was next to an impossi-
bility for pedestrians to pass with
safety, especially during the early
morning or evening hours. If the city
would take the matter in charge, clean
the sidewalks as the ordinances pro-
claim it may do, and tax the costs
to the property. 1t is more than likely
that there would be more walks at

general thing the worst walks are those

The prompt action of the council,
looking toward the establishment of a
permanent market place for farmers, IS
a step that will be appreciated by the
farming community in general. Since
the necessary occupation of the old
market place at Center and State, and
the abandonment of the same for mar
ct purposes, the city has been without
adequate facilities. Business at mar
ket place is something enormous in
Marshalltown, much larger in fact,
than the average person realizes. There
was some criticism of maintaining such
place manifested at a meeting of the
council not long ago, and one of the
reasons for looking toward the project
with disfavor was that the market
place had grown to be too much of 20
rendezvous for hucksters, and was not
used by farmers as place of legitimate
trade. The evidences apparent on all
sides during the past few weeks. how
ever, are all in favor of an up-to-date
market. constructed under cover and
with increased facilities, located at a
point in the south part of the city.

TO OPEN A CAFE
The Palmer House to Establish one
About November LIST.
Will be q Swell Affair and Up-to- Date,
Says Mine Host Reed.

Proprietor Charles Reed of tho
Palmer house has arranged to open n
cafe on the second floor Of the hotel
about November 1, perhaps not so
early. This conclusion was reached
some time ago, but nothing was said
Of it until the furnishings were bought
and preparations completed for open
ing It.
The cafe will be located on the sec
ond floor, and made from the store
room and another large room. A huge
bake oven is being built in the base
ment of the hotel, which will give
more room in the second floor, the
store room to be located where the
second floor oven now is, and the old
store room fitted out for tine cafe.
The furnishings have been purchas-
ed in Chicago, and the room will be
handsomely fitted out and decorated.
II will be the SWEETEST thing in this
end Of the state, Mr.. Reed says,
and he expects 1t to become very
popular, especially with the ladies.
He hopes to be ready to open No
vember 1, but may not be able to do so
until later. He has not decided who
will be In charge Of it.

terdsy. The question of Sunday clos
ing is one that is Just now of unusual
interest in Paducah, and there are sew
ersl truths that are worthy of being
brought before the general public.
There are three classes of citizens
those who want the saloons closed
on Sunday, those who do not want
them closed on Sunday and those
who are Indifferent and do not care
one way or another There is a law
that prohibits saloons from doing bus
mess on the Sabbath. There are Off
GERS elected to enforce the law, and
the law is not enforced. This brings
us to the truths that are forcibly i'm
pressed on the minds Of every body
Just at this time. The So loonkeepers
evidently do not desire to close on
Sunday, as they do not do it. The
officers OF the law do not want them to
close, as they have not required them
to do so in the past. As long as the
saloon men are permitted to violate
the law they are doubtless going to
do so, as people will drink, and II
there were no business for them they
would not keep open. The officials
will not close the saloons. as to do
it now will be a virtual admission that
they have repeatedly vic lated their
osths by not doing it before. Besides,
the saloons keep open fifty-two Sun
days in the year and pay four fines a
year for it. amounting, at about ESQ
each, to over $4,000 annually, most of
which goes to few officials. As
long as they get graft like this they
are likely to close their eyes to Sab
bath violation, as they have in the
past. It is clearly up to the peo-
Pile, who put the men in office, and
are after all indirectly responsible
for their actions Either the people
will have to individually see that the
laws are enforced or they will have to
elect a new set Of city officers. II
they collect evidence, swear out war
rants and prosecute violators Of the
law in the courts they may succeed in
keeping the saloons closed for awhile,
but it will soon grow monctonous.
They have q right to expect public
officials to do their duty, and as il is
clear the present set has not done it's
duty, and does not intend TO, the only
is to put in q new set When
Ii becomes so that private citizens
have to do by individual effort what
they pay officials TO do-enforoe the
law-it is time for a new deal in
the city administration.

DAILY THOUGHT.
tS THE WEATHER.
THE MAYOR MUST ACT.

Mayor Yejser knows that isit charged
that the city clerk has two contracts
with the city. He also knows that
the charter under which the city is
operating specifies that
"IF ANY CITY OFFICER SHALL
BE DIRECTLY OR INDIRECTLY
INTERESTED IN ANY CONTRACT
WITH THE CITY OR IN ANY
WORK DONE BY THE CITY, .
HE SHALL BE GUILTY OF A
MISDEMEANOR, AND
UPON THE MAYOR BECOMING
SATISFIED THAT ANY ELECT.
I'VE OFFICER is so INTERESTED
AND REPORTS THE FACTS TO
THE BOARD OF ALDER MEN .
IF BY TwO.THIR DIS VOTE
so OF THE MEMBERS-ELECT OF
THE SAID BOARD HE BE FOUND
INTERESTED, HE SHALL BE I'M.
MEDIATELY DISMISSED FROM
SUCH OFFICE.
This is plain. Today Mayor Yeiser
in reply to a question as to whether or
not he would report the allegations to
the board of aldermen, said that he de-
clined to be interviewed on any mat
ter connected with the city clerk. il
has been known all along that the Yei-
ser gang stand pretty well together
and stick TO one another, but If the
mayor desires to openly and defiantly
sanction violation of the law, the
people shall know Of it. If the city
clerk has q contract with the city, he
should resign. II he has and will not
resign, the mayor should do his duty
and leave the matter to be investigat-
ell by tho board of aldermen and de-
cided. and il ii is found to be true,
the clerk should be dismissed. The
same applies to any other public off
Ger. The clerk is the only one alleged
at present, however, to have a con-
tract with the city. II he has no cen
tract with the city the mayor owes 1t
to himself and the municipal boards
TO so officially declare, in order that
the people who pay the salaries Of
public officers may be satisfied, and
may be made aware of what became
of these contracts to keep the bricK
street and concrete sidewalks in repair
for five years, that the clerk did have
with the city. n
