moval. Both gentlemn are we'll
.equippd to hold their own in their
respective bodies and will put forth a
gigantic effort to secure resumisb-
sion and Mitchell.
A delegation of twenty citizens of
this city will also 90 up this
afternoon and Saturday to take a
hand in the fray. This delegation
will be made up of the following
business men: Judge Frank B.

For the last evening that the
teachers Of South Dakota were to be
with US an entertainment was pro-
vided for their benefit by the local
recital given by Josephine Etter-
Powell. in which she was assisted by
local musical talent. The entertain
ment was a splendid success through
out, and the local talent was given a
hearty reception by the visitors.
Mrs. Grace was Unable to appear on
the program by reason of sickness.
Mrs. Powell gave a varied program
that brought into execution a wide
range of work and showed that she
was a thorough raster OF her art.
She was particularly strong in the
balcony scene from "Romeo and
Juliet and in assuming both char
acters the reader made a deep i'm
preston on her bearers. One Of the
best numbers was ''Bobbie S%ba1to,'
and another was the scene from the
''Little Minister Mrs. Powell is

The rest of the evening was de-
voted to five-minute speeches from
the educators. Most of the college
presidents bad taken their departure
during the day and the program had
to be arranged from among the lesser
lights in the educational world.
For the opening Of the watch
meeting Miss Palma Anderson, of
Canton. gave a piano solo in the
same finished manner that has
characterized her ability as a pianiste
during her brief stay in the city.
Then followed a series of speeches
that were calculated to take up the
time until the midnight hour.
Among those who spoke were Prof.
e.. E. Holmes, of Sioux Falls, Prof.
Geo. w. Nash. superintendent of
public instruction, Prof L. A. Stout,
OF this city. John Griffin, Of Yank-
ton college, and a Mr.. Hannett, a
chalk talk artist, of Sioux City. 1t
was then near the hour of midnight
and the rest of the time was awarded
to President Heston, and just as the
lights flashed he wished his hearers
a very happy and prosperous new
year. Greetings were exchanged
among those in the audience and in
a short space of time the opera house
was deserted for the fireside.

RUSSIAN RESTAURANT.

Some Color Studies in, Meats and
 Vegetables and the Uses of Vodka.
 It does not seem typically Russian, and yet is the best restaurant in the town. No men cooks visible, clothed in white from neck to foot; there Is no organ which, at the request of any visi-. tor, will send forth strains that threat en to break the drum of the ear to set the digestion all agog. The room, is small and gloomy, for the lower half of the windows is of frosted glass. Near the door are two stands, several yards long, each of them with pegs and here the nimble attendants busy themselves with hanging up the furs or with taking them down and with slowing away are table goloshes. In four rows along the roms are tables with white cloths, but set out without any attempt at style. Here and there upon the cush- toned seats newspapers ie-Russian, Polish, German, French; on the walls there are a few cheap pictures repres- enting Alpine scenes, high snowy moun- tain peaks, as if to give some mo- mentary relief to eyes that have per- haps scarcely ever gazed on anything but an interninable plain. At one end of the restaurant there is a counter, near which the walters appear and disappear with dishes in their hands, and behind the counter the manager of the establishment, a round-faced Swiss, with shaven chin and twinkling eyes. is busily engaged in attending to the wants of numerous customers, who stand and eat. x.

One of Scotland's Sons
Worthy Citizen of Florence,
Hugh Houston, Miner, Boiler-Mak-
er, Real Estate Dealer, Prop
erty Owner, Office Holder,
and Respected Citizen
of Florence.

In the little village of Mulekirk, in
the lowlands of Scotland. the subject
of this sketch was born on the 28th of
February in the year 1889
Hugh Houston was the son of that
sturdy hardy. old time race which has
given to the world many of her great
est men. The blood of Scotlands s sons
has flowed in the veins of more than
half of Americas presidents aud it is
such men as Wallace, Cromwell Bruce
history.
Mr.. Houston's father al a boy was
clerk in small grocery store and
as a man a coal miner. He was not
tor his sons to carve out their own
fortunes. At the age of four years
Hugh started to school and in less
than -four years later was compelled
to quit school to help make his own
living. A child of eight years he
went to work in the coal mines and
whatever education he has since gaiu-
ed was by attending night school and
by reading. He learned the boiler
makers trade, serving an apprentice
ship of three years, and came to Amer
ica in ls67-just after our great civil
war had ended. He went to work
digging coal in the mines of Pennsyl-
vanla. After few months he decid-
ed to 60 to what was then the far
west and landed at Murphysboro Illi-
nois, in the early part of 1863. This
is Gen. John A. Logan's birthplace
with whose brothers Mr.. Houston was
we'll acquainted.
In 1876 he came to this county, set

Greek. Colorado was still territory,
being admitted to the union as a state
in that year and Mr.. Houston helped
to mine the eight ton. lump of coal
which Colorado sent to the centennial
at Philadelphia that year. AT that
time Florence was cornfields and
meadows. There were but three or
four small houses; the ID. and r. G.
railway was but poorly kept narrow
guage track over which they ran one
train day from Denver to Canon
City; their depot Mt this place was a
platform and no one guessed that in
twenty five years the cornfields would
be planted with fine business blocks
and her meadows would give way to
fine lawns and gardens. Coal Greek
was mining camp of western men
who did their OWE cooking, washing
and sewing, there being but four wo-
men in the place.
