Union Entertainment Course

The Monday Club have decided TO
undertake another entertainment
course aud some work has already
been done toward securing a large
enough subscription list to rnlrarIcc
their placing a course here. II 10 Jw
| st OF August the requisite number
hasn't been obtained, the course will
be dropped. Th, is not II financial
benefit to the Club, rs some seem Ia
think Last year they were torly-iwu
dollars behind But these young la
dies are anxious to provide entertain.
mcnls for those Of the town who do
not delight in the questionable
"showsn that frequent our city every
winter OF course they cannot DO it
alone, and unless our best people
stand by them, the effort will be lost.
Various criticisms assaulted those who
went with subscription list. One
young man wanted more music; n
lady objected to such string OF con
ccfts aud wanted more of variety.
The gentleman requested more lectures
One man braycly stated the entertain
mcnls were over his head, aud the
most unique fault found was that they
got too much for the money a num-
Der said it was just as cheap to buy
tickets for each entertainment, as
the cost was the same rs for season
ticket Those people forgot that :
was charged for Bob raylor's lecture,
aud because the other numbers were
only fifty cents was due to mlsuudrr-
standing.
This year one condition of the con
tract i, that $500 shall be charged
for the Vending lecture, which, by
the way, is the opening number and
will come on Thanksgiving night.
The admission to the other entertain
ments will he scycnty.liye cents In
thinking of these objections raised |
am reminded that one can please all
the people some of the time and you
can please some of the people all the
time, but you can't please all the pro-
pie all the time.
Aud am sure the Club Committee
have done the best they could aud in
their name | want to thank those who
have already received them so nicely

Pennington Now q Railroad Town.

An old saying, Everything come.
to those who wait, is none the less
true in the case of the people of Far
mington who have been waiting SC
long for the electric railroad to ma.
terialize. We may now expect that
our long "wait' will be amply
rewarded in perfect system of cleo
iric car service.
Every body rcjoiced last Monday
when the message reached Pennington
that the electric cars had at last ar.
rived at Delassus. Since that time
Manager Thurlby has been the busiest
man in st. Francois county getting the
cars unlOadcd. placing them on the
trucks, getting the track and trolly
wires in readiness for the first start.
Mr. Thurlby is very much pleased
with the first installment Of the com.
pany's rolling stock and the citizens
Of Pennington who have seen the cars
at DcLassus say that they are n credit
to our city and county, There are
two ears, n passenger coach Of the
suburban dimensions and combina.
ten car for express and freight traffic
As above mentioned, Manager
Thurlby is working overtime in an eff.
fort to get the cars in operation, and
while he cannot say positively just
when he can be ready TO run them in.
to Pennington, it is confidently be-
licyed he will make the initial run

The Largest Law School in the Central
West

a recent investigation shows that
the University Of Missouri has the larg-
est law school between Chicago and
san Francisco The total enrolment
for the year just closed was 1876. which
is an increase of nearly ninety per cent
over the year before. Much of this
increase it is believed is due TO i'm.
portaut improvements made in the
work offered. The cours, is now
three years in length and practice
courts corresponding to the various
Missouri courts, inferior and superior,
are in session every day of the school
year. The faculty will consist of four
full professors next year besides the
quiz masters The present law fac
ulty it is believed is the best the Uni.
ycrsity has ever had.

Then, again, we had the positive

claimed he had. If l could only

which rendered her condition
quite serious, and she has since
been sojourning at the home of
