Nh. and Mrs. Frank A.. Gibbs
left Sioux City Saturday afternoon
for a trip to Los Angeles. Cal, to
attend the meeting of the Brother
hood OF Locomotive Engineers. At
Sioux City they will JOIN a party of
eight engineers and their wives for
the trip, the engineers all being en-
ployed on the Milwaukee road.
The Milwaukee road has issued a
post card folder describing the cleo
trio light equipment of its trains.
The neat little advertiser has a head
on picture of the Pioneer Limited
running at full speed, a representa-.
ton OF the interior of a dining car
On the overland limited, and a tail
end view of the southwest limited.
The time cards are given in brief.
The ROAD claims the title of pioneer
in electric lighting. 1t began the
use OF electricity over sixteen years
ago and nov over 300 cars are thus
equipped, the largest number in the
country on one line.
a couple Of men have been making
the rounds Of the city on crutches
during the week, appealing to the
housewives for anything in the way
OF a gift. Their seemingly crippled
condition had the effect of bringing
them in a large quantity of supplies,
but that the generosity of the ladies
was misplaced is vouched for by Mrs.
Davis. who resides south of the cleo
trio light plant. She sent a note to
The Republican office stating that
the two men returned to the vicinity
of her house in a hollow and that
they acted like men to whom crutch-
ea We're needless and that many of
the supplies were thrown away.
Charity is often times misplaced,
and one hardly knows whom to turn
down.
We received a copy of the Wakol-
da Mail last week which contained
the announcement of the marriage
of ID. G.. West and Mrs. Beaumelle
Parish-Williams, which occurred at
Wakonda. April IS. Mr.. West. who
is the editor of the Mail, tells an in
tereSting story of the extended
courtship of the b1ide. Dan says
this little affair started more than
forty years ago, but which had an
interruption when both parties mar
fied different people and fate fin
ally worked out their salvation md
i'm the latter years OF their lives the
dreams of their youth we're made
possible. Mr.. West is an old resi-
dent of Dawson county. and the con-
9ratulations OF his old time friends
will be extended. Dan says the ages
of this happy pair are TO for himself
and IS for the bride.
A mans patience is sorely tried in
making arrangements to tap the city
water mains-the procedure being
long and tedious. First, n goes to
the city treasurer and planks down
s2,..for which he gets a receipt and
this is taken to the city auditor,
who gives you a receipt to the effect
that you have applied for permission
tap the mains. With this receipt
you start out to hunt up two men,
bers OF the water committee who are
required to place their names on the
back of it, presumably to certify to
your moral character and that you
are entitled to tap the water mains.
This accomplished you 90 back to
The auditor who gives you an order
to the city plumber authorizing him
TO tap the main. Much Of this red
tape could be eliminated by not re-
luiring the members Of the water
