the second annual ball of the Broth

be given. Unique invitations, in
the form of train order, have been
issued, and the big ''doin's" will
begin promptly at 9 O'Clock on that
evening. We have been requested
10y B. D. Bennett, of the committee,
to announce this coming event
through the columns of the News
and also to state that for the round
trip the Santa Fe has granted a
rate of one and one third frst-class
fare from all points between Albu-
querque and Seligman. A number
of people are going down from here
and there is not a doubt but that
they will more than enjoy them
selves, as the "boys" have a repu-
tation for being regal entertainers.
Better think it over and decide to
go. 1t will be the biggest time ever.
