Benefits Derived From a. Brass Band.
The mission of a Brass Band
in community is for good. Per-
haps no other single feature can
contribute so much TO towns
life and pleasure. This being a
fact, is it but just and right that
a band should be looked upon, in
a measure, as public institu-
tion:. and this view MAKES its
success a matter Of interest to
every citizen.
Glance for a moment at the
usefulness of Brass Band;
A celebration of any kind with

tame indeed. Not only does

ugrently for its utility, but ether

sneak ThIeyes Settlng Bold.


Last Thursday evening two
strange men went into the Colum-
bia store while there was only one
clerk on duty. One of the men
called for overalls, and went to
the rear of the store, while the
other one remained in front.
While the clerk was showing the
goods, the man in the front end
of the store helped himself to two
pairs of pants, then, it is said he
went TO Galloway's store on main
street, where he stole several ar
ticles. That night, we are in
formed, he tried TO sell thes e
stolen articles to the negroes, at
the minstrel show, but they had
heard of the Fair store robbery,
and Immediately notified Mr..
Hunt, who had him arrested.
He was lodged in jail, and later
acknowledged his guilt. 1t was
ascertained that his name is
Moors, but the name of the other
party implicated in the robbery
could not be learned.

Junius Oldham, who was nom
mated for police judge, by the
Citizens club at their meeting
last night, positively declines to
make the race. He says he
helped to nominate the DEM
ocrat ticket, and will support it.
The Democrat platform demands
honesty in office, and there is
not a member OF the Citizen s
club who cannot stand on that
platform, and they will certainly
admit that c. V. Lining, the
Democratic nominee, is one of the
best men in the city for that pos
ition. If you want an honest
competent man for the office
vote for him.

veloped a scandal exceeding in mag

The rural free delivery system
was found saturated with fraud.
The Washington office was a sort Of
clearing house through which fraud

Bridge Building BrotherhOods.

1t was in France that brotherhoods
for building bridges first took shape.
In ITS bridge was begun over the
Rhone at Avlgnon by Saint Benezet,
the head of body called Fratres Pom
tbs, who undertook the building and
repairing of bridges during the middle
ages. A second soon followed at st.
Esprit.
About the same time Peter of Cole
church, the head of similar brother
hood in England, began the first stone
bridge over the Thames at London.
In many cases when bridge was
built chapel was founded, TO which
a priest was attached TO pray for the
soul of the founder, to receive money
and to offer prayers with the passen-
gers for a safe journey.
The strange Gothic triangular bridge
at Crowland, over three streams, allud-
ed to in a charter of 943, was built by
the abbot of Crowland, and Abbot
Bernard built the Burton bridge over
the Trent, the longest in England, 1854
feet long, which carries the roadway
over thirty-six arches.-London Globe.
