New Workman Hall.


For some time8the A. O. u, w.
have been planning on building
hall, and committee was appointed
to draw up plans and specifications
and secure location; also to draw
up leases to be signed by the other
lodges that would care TO use the
hall. The committee, having received
a liberal proposition from both the
K. 2. and Woodmen lodges.
presented very favorable report at
the regular meeting Mar. 26.
They will erect two story frame
building 5Ox9O feet, on the lots
where the Sun Office now stands and.
owned by Charles Camp. The cost:
of the hall will be in the neighbor-
hood of $65OO. The entire lower
part of the building will be used
as a public hall for dances, con-
ventions, concerns, etc, while the
second story will be used as Lodge
rooms The lodge here is in flourish
ing condition, and the building will
surely be good investment.

Commercial Club Organized.

A meeting of all citizens
interested in the Organization
of a commercial club was
called Tuesday evening, and as
a result Morris is to have one
of it's own. Although there
were only a few present the
meeting was an enthusiastic
one. An organization was
effected, and as soon as there
is a sufficient number OF
members to insure it's success
apartments will be selected
and fitted up.
The following officers were
elected: president, E. J. Jones
1st wise presy G. L. Brown
2nd vice pres, S. Stewart;
treasurer, w. F. Cooley; cor,
secretary, J. W.. Harris; rec,
secretary, G.. r. G. Johnson.
Board of directors: Archie
Stone, L. G. Spooner, S. A. ST.
verts, J. J. Carney, J. A. John
son.
Every business man should
feel that it is to his best inter
ests to become a member, for
such an organization is sure to
benefit the town as we'll as him
self in more ways than one.
While at presnt the object of
the club is for social purposes
only, it is expected that there
will be general branching out
later on and the work will be
along the same line as that
adopted by clubs in larger
cities.

Easter Dance.

The dance given by the Uni
form Rank K. of p. last Mon
day evening was a success in
every detail, and to say the
least, it was one of the best
managed dances we have ever
had the pleasure of attending.
The music by the Morris Or
Chestra was first class, and the
floor was never in better con-
dition.
All the old draperies that
had become a menace we're
thrown out, and the hall was
decorated with the emblem of
the lodge. No smoking what
ever, was allowed in the hall
during the whole evening
which rule is good precedent
for the dances that follow.

Closing the House for Summer.

When closing the house for a
month or more take such pre-
cautions that you may be sure
Of finding it sweet and health
ful on your return. Have rugs
cleaned and packed away the
same as other wColens. Take
down, clean and put away all
draperies. If you have upho1-
stored furniture give that a
good beating and brushing.
Have the house thoroughly
swept and busted. Have the
floors in kitchen, pantries and
laundry washed with water to
which a little Carbolic acid has
been added. Flush the plumb
ing with carbolic acid water;
then a few hours before you
leave the house flush with hot
salsoda water.-April Ladies

Event of the Season.

Reno Novelty Company is
coming to the Opera House
Wednesday April9 The event
! will be one long to be remem-
bered by all who attend. Reno
is certainly a wonderful Ma
gician he has no superiors and
few equals. The Pittsburg
News says, Prof. and his Novel
ty Company at the Fifth Ave.
Theatre last week was the ia
shionab1e event of the season,
on Thursday night seats sold
at a premium. Reno is equal
to the old ori gina1 Hermann.
The above is the voice of the
entire Press of the country
wherever the company has
appeared. No money Or time
has been spared to make the
company one of the best on the
road and the patrons can GER
tainly be promised a great treat
in the amusement line. In
conjunction with Reno's beauti-
full work many specialties are
introduced among which is Mr..
Wade the marvellous juggler
who was the talk of New York
City. One would think it i'm
possible to do with a pair of
hands what this great Artist
accomplishes, he is rightly
termed the Emperor of Jug
g1ers. Also the World Re-
nowned School of Trained Dogs
and. Birds that never fail to
please both old and young.
All in all the entire program is
one of beauty and complete
ness. Seats will be on sale at
the usual place.
