To be fixture In New York, one
must be progressive.
Tomorrow. Monday. March 80.
there will be two CROSS STORES
In Greater New York.
Downtown: Broadway. opposite
City Hall.
Uptown, Fifth Avenue aad
Broadway. bet 2Sth and Goth
Streets.
Therefore we open another store
uptown to meet the increasing
demand for CROSS goods.
The "Aristoeracy Of Leather"
like brains, rises to the top. and
we are moving up higher for the
accommodation of those who sell
dom come below Twenty.thid
Street.
Opposite City Hail, we are told
We have one of the most interest
ing stores in the world. $50
We shall Try to make another in
Madison Square.
Our policy Of comfort and secur-
ity, chock full of haad-sevn
quality. permeates CROSS goods
from the four-in-hand harness to
the travelling bag.
It's seven years since the name
CROSS appeared on the New
York horizon. and the close Of
each day has brought its results
in increased demands from an
approving public.
Goods in both stores are identical.

IIscOMY.


Feb. 2.-The Bethel band and orches-
ira, and their ladies, about thirty-1ive
in number, met at the home of G. r. Ar
ney at 1880 o'clock Friday night, 1T be-
ing a surprise on Mr.. Arney; also to
install him as major of the band Botn
were a surprise to Mr.. Arney, as he had
not as yet been notified of his being
elected major of the band. This ONCE
had been filled by the late d. D. Buegh-
ley, Of Liscomb, for about eighteen
years. Out of due respect for his menu
Dry no one had been given that posi-
ton, but it was filed temporarily since
the death of Mr.. Bueghley by one of the
members of the band. At the last am
nual election of officers it was a unanf-
nous vote to tender Mr.. Arney the Of
flee of major. After the crowd was In
the house the orchestra was arranged
and furnished music till supper was
arranged by the ladies of the band. At
ter supper was over and the dining
room cleared the band was arranged
and gaev few numbers, after which
President Boyd made a few remarks In
which Mr. Arney was cordially invited
to accept the position offered him. In
response, Mr. Arney said he would ac-
.cept the position and do all in his power
to further the interests of the band an
to keep it on a solid basis. Mr.. Arney
has always taken a deep interest In the
band and always lent his aid whenever
aid was needed. The band feels that it
has major whom it can place all con-
f1dence in. About o'clock a. m. the
crowd disbanded, going home feeling
the evening had been spent very pleas
antly and profitably.

Saunders, Of Pottawattamie county. a
member of the board af managers of the
head camp, and Jerry Green, of Daven-
port, state consul, were the speakers.
Mr.. Saunders spoke in favor of the re-
adjustment of the rates, which, as pro-
posed, is on the step-raN plan, or in
ereasing the rates as the ages advance
This will bring the ;,-der into a class
more nearly like the cid line insurance
companies, and consequently there is
considerable opposition to 1T. Mr. Green
spoke against the readjustment 1t is
claimed that fully 81 per cent of the,
order at large Is not IN favor of the
REIMBURSEMENT along such radical lines
as proposed, yet great many are will

A Clever Spaniel.

Martin McManus. farmer living five
miles north of the city on rural mail
route No. 1. has q water spaniel named
Dewey which he would not sell for
any small sum. The dog has been
taught the clever trick Of carrying mail,
and as the fa-ily lives forty or fifty
rods off the road he comes in handy or
stormy days. The little animal will
carry letters from tie house to the
road and await the arrival Of Carrier
Pepper, and take What mail he may
have for the house and run back with
it.. The dog has come to look upon his
GRAND as being regularly prescribed
daily duty, and always knows about
what time to look for the carrier. II
there is no mail he seems very much
disappointed, but returns to the house
at once to inform his master. The
faithful animal is seldom disappointed.
for he always has daily paper for his
master, even tho there be no letters.
