Dear Sir:-Enc1ose please find

Now a question about the
Colony Co. When we bought
stock we were told that at the
end of six years all the property
not sold at private sale would be
sold at auction and the Colony
wound up, and each share of
stock get it's share. Now the
Colony Co., did not do that and
the company was put in the
hands of receivers. Now what
are they doing? Why don't they
wind up the Colony as was under
stood in the first place? Are
they selling the property by
piece-meal and putting the money
in their pockets as salary, or
what are they doing or going to
do? Please let me know through
the Enterprise. Yours truly.

OLD COTILLON FAvORs.
Many Uses Found for Them-Put to
Charitable Purposes.
From the New York Sun.

From the New York Sun.
Consignments of cotillon favors are
being sown broadcast just now at the
instance of the various guilds and
girls clubs. The yards of gay ribbons
and liberty silk. fancy gewgaws and
glass and china ornaments that nave
served their turn with the original
party-goers are made to shine in 9TH
er circles. Very popular young women
have their winters accumulation OF
favors and souvenirs spoken for
months ahead by district workers and
| collectors for charitable purposes The
kindergarten classes at the Juvenile
| asylums count it a festal day when
| the boxes of favors come for distribu-
ton. Some of the favors go to bright
en- old ladies' homes and invalids'
quarters.
A methodical young church woman
keeps her friends we'll reminded of the
favors and souvenirs she wants for her
working girls clubs and children's So
cieties Out of the accumulations be-
slowed. she makes three separate allot-
ments. The long, broad scarfs and lace
trimmed corrections that are unfair
nished, she hands over to the class
in millinery, which works of evenings
under a paid teacher practicing on hats
and neckwear. The less fresh and de-
sirabIe pieces go to make doll frocks
for the younger sisters of the little
mothers The gilded golf sticks and
miniature statues of dogs, horses,
birds and the like she keeps for her
boy proteges. the youngsters who meet
in her sitting room on certain after
Moons each month to be entertained
and get notions of civility and indoor
pleasures.
The Sisters of Mercy who operate
clothing bureau for their poorer
neighbors get a liberal share of the
seasons festal souvenirs and bestow
them on the steadiest and most deserv-
ing customers. The church deaconesses
and the women physicians at the free
clinics also get consignments of the
sort for distribution, and the factory
girls and mission Sunday-school pupils
profit thereby. A clever old lady at the
Home for Incurables has contrived a
pretty portiere out of the fancy tally
cards used at whist and euchre par
ties. Interested friends saved them for
her, and tackled on a groundwork of
dark maroon lining stuff the little
hand-painted and gilded devices make
a good show Hearts. fieurs-de-lis. cres-
scents. roses, forget-me-nots and valen-
tine symbols culled from half a hun
dred different sources are represented
in this drapery.
At the lodging houses for friendless
girls and for those other girls whose
wages do not make them independent
of help. the party souvenirs that come
in at this time of year are appropriat-
ed to uses that the donators might
never have dreamed possible. Sashes.
hat bands, even petticoat f1ounces, are
contrived very ingeniously out of them.
Some of New York's cotillon favors
and dinner and theater souvenirs get
away down south to the dwellers in
the mountain districts. Some figure as
prizes at exhibition time, or else are
given privately as rewards for good
behavior. Friends of schools that are
maintained by private donations are
always on the lookout for things that
will please the young folks and keep
their attention.
