linery opening at the Lopez Store
Company last Tuesday. The
souvenirs were medallion repro
auctions OF the larger buildings al
the Worlds Fair. They were ex-
quisite and handsome and all the
ladies were much pleased.
The agricultural meetings at the
courthouse Monday were not
nearly so largely attended as their
merit deserved. Those present
were fully repaid for their time
and trouble, for the talks and adj
dresses were full of instruction and
good counsel. The L. M. R'y had
an exhibition car at the station,
which was numerously visited.
r. T. White has vacated the
Mountain View House in Arcadia
and he and his good wife now
have charge of the Blue Store in
Ironton across the street from the
REGISTER, having bought out Mrs.
Finnimore. We wish Mr.. White
every success in his new location.
We understand that the Mountain
View will be occupied again in
about a month.
Will Schwab had the misfortune
about a week ago to lose a gold
ring with a moonstone setting. He
had no idea where he had lost it
and last week put a line in the pa
per telling of his loss. Next day
Fred. Twoomey, who works for HI.
Farmhouse, brought the ring to
this Office. He had found it in a
sack of corn. And right glad Will
was to get his ring again.
Mrs. Lulu Gillian Woodside has
just returned from st. Louis, where
she spent several weeks getting
acquainted with all that was new
and novel in fall and winter mill
linery. She has selected a stock
embracing everything that is ex-
quisite and up-to-date, and she is
arranging to have her fall opening
next Saturday, October 8th. She
cordially invites all the ladies to
call and see her that day.
The millinery opening at the
Lopez Store Company last Tues
day attracted the usual crowd of Wis
itors and the ladies were very x
travagant in their praise OF the
dainty creations in fall and winter
millinery on which their eyes
feasted. The display was certainly
a most exquisite one and Miss Reel,
who is in charge was universally
complimented on her most excel
lent taste and good Judgment.
Drew Lloyd and Ed. Lewis of
Annapolis ere arraigned before
Squire Fairchild Wednesday on
the charge Of disturbing the peace
of Mr.. Foster, the night operator
at Arcadia, the night before. The
defendants asked for a change of
venue to Pilot Knob and the Pros
ecuting Attorney dismissed the
suit. Mr.. Van Mort at once filed
an information before the circuit
clerk and the case will come up in
circuit court.
Ed. Register:-I see in one of the
Ironton papers a great deal of talk
about the county money not draw
ing any interest. Now for in
formation, l would like to know
whether the Republican treasurer
OF this district is getting any in
terest for the district on the school
fund, and how much of the fund is
left over eachsyear? If the county
ought to draw interest on it's
money, | think the district ought
to, too. VIDOC.
Mrs. Maude Maness, nee Saltz,
died in the Forster cottage in IRON
ton, Wednesday morning at five
o'clock. The deceased had been
in very poor health for some time
past and the end has been ex-
pected for several weeks. Mrs.
Maness gave birth to a babe Tues
day, which survives her. To the
bereaved husband and parents we
extend sympathy in their hour of
sorrow. The remains will be in
tered at Iron Mountain tomorrow.
Ar item was published in these
columns last week from a slip
handed me, and a hasty glance led
me to believe it was merely ex-
planatory of the constitutional
amendments to be voted on next
election. My attention has since
been called to the fact that said
item opposes the initiative and
referendum amendments. | am in
favor of the initiative and refer
endum and have always been.
The mistake, like the rent in
Pepys' camlet cloak, is perhaps
not Of much consequence, but tits
annoying.
Word was received here Monday
of last week announcing the death
that day at Pueblo, Colorado, of
Rev. j. t. Triplett, pastor of the
Fort Hill church, who had been
sojourning in the west for the past
three months in the hope of i'm
proving his health. The remains
arrived here Friday and the funeral
occurred from the Fort Hill church
that afternoon. Although not a
resident Of the Valley for a great
while, yet during his short sojourn
here he made many friends who
heard of his end with sorrow.
Peace to his ashes.
No one, unless he be woefully
ignorant or a constituencies liar,
would attempt to create the opin-
ion that the appointment to the Of

in this town is one controlled by
