VIVA, They Say of the Boys.

From the Steamboat Pilot:
1.-THE one feature which contributed
more than any other to the success
Of the carnival was the presence Of
the Meeker Cornet band, AZ fine a lot
Of boys as ever came to town., This
Is a new organization but they know
their business and were congratulated
on every side. The committee feels
under especial obligations to the
Meeker band, for they were always
on hand when they were wanted and
showed a willingness to entertain
and please which helped the program
immensely. We take of our hats to
the Meeker boys and say come again
and stay longer. That the people ap-
preciated their music was shown on
Saturday night, when dance was
given for their benefit, and 1t was the
largest one of the carnival. The boys
cleared over $lOO.'
From the Routt County Courier:
'Slightly handicapped by the ac-
ten Of Gov. Peabody in taking seven
members away to Cripple Greek, the
Meeker band boys landed In town
Tuesday evening and entertained
with concert of most excellent
music, followed by dance enjoyed
by goodly gathering. Under the
able leadership Of Prof. d. w. Nc
MILAN the Meeker boys have
achieved wonders In five months
work, and expect at the end Of an
other half years instruction to grind
out n character Of harmony that will
make Sousa or Satrlano throw out
ballast to keep up with them"
From the Sentinel:
''Steamboat Springs WAS indeed
fortunate In securing the Meeker
band for carnival week. The band
has only been in existence five months
but the playing would have been
considered creditable even to much
older organization. They kept things
pretty lively throughout the celebra-
ton and everybody was sorry to see
them depart on Sunday morning. A
dance on Saturday night at Hugus
hall, which WAS given for the bands
benefit, showed jam such ~ was
never before witnessed in Steamboat
and resulted in giving the boys some
thing over 500. 1t was the intention

We are IN receipt of a copy Of
the Synod Minutes of the Presby-
terrain church Of South Dakota, a
very neat pamphlet of about 100.
pages printed at the Huronite job
office. The statistical summary
shows that there are in the state
128 churches, with 1O3 pastors,
and a membership of 6,257. The
contributions for the past year
amounted to $7O,OO6. The sum-
mary ofEDr. H. P. Carson's IF
teenth annual report as synodical
missionary gives some idea Of the
vast amount of work connected
with his Office. The report says:
In the pursuit Of my work DUR
ing the twelve months past | have
delivered 100 sermons and address
es, attended and taken part other
than singing in IS other religious
services, held 81 conferences more
or less formal, besides many infor-
NAL, made 161 calls, many Of them
of a pastoral kind. Besides pre-
siding W several session and
congregational meetings and well
coming new church members, I
have conducted or assisted in con-
Quoting the celebration Of the
Lords Supper six or eight times,
baptized as many children and
four adults, assisted in one install
lation and one ordination service
and conducted three funerals. All
this involved the writing Of 2,237
letters and travelling to the sum Of
21,306 miles, of which SIT we're by
team and 1853 on foot. AS in for.
mer years | have had such free en-
tertainment among those served
and such railroad favors to home
missions that | have been able to
further reduce the expenses so that
the average cost to the Board has
been less than eighteen dollars a
month.
