 The Married Mems Dance
 On Friday evening, July H, the mar ried men gave dancing party in the new building of the National Lumber 1 Company on Eighth and K streets, which was sucC <s ':om every point of view. The music, h,ch was supplied by Miss Ernest and MT. Varney of Brawley, was of the highest order, and was thoroughly enjoyed by all. And the attendance! it was matter of re- mark where so many people came from. So many people had gone out for the summer that it was hardly expected that so large party would turn out to enjoy the hospitality of the married men. But they came from all over the Valley, Brawley, Silsbee, Heber, Holt vile and CalexicO were all represented. And the dance! The night was perfect cool and breezy, the building just open enough to give the dancers the full benefit Il all. The large floor 5Ox6C 1 feet, N:- smooth and in fine shape And t,-- 'lllciEgl Everybody had a good time. From 'at time the music rose in the gand uarch till it died away in it's ia 4t- refrain in the fna schOttische tie scene was one of mirtl and enjoyment unmixed with other thought than the present pleasure And when the music ceased and the dancers wended their several ways homeward all voted unanimously that the married men of Imperial were matchless entertainers, and the hope was expressed by all that they would pursue the unqualified success already attained, and entertain again in the near future. To Messrs. J. E. Stoval T. P. Banta and Arthur Edgar the ex. cellent committee on arrangements the thanks of all were rendered fol d most enjoyable evenings entertain ment.

At this point a wire cable has spanned the river for most of the time since the bridge was washed away a month or more ago. This cable was first put up by Mir. Groshen to transport his cantelopes over the river and has done service as a general utility means of crossing the river. Once before the cable broke and let two men fall into the river. but they were rescued. On last Saturday it was purposed to mend the cable, stretch it across the river and make light foot. bridge suspended from it for the con- venience of the public. While working on this foot bridge the cable broke and Tishbierck, who was out over the water was precipitated into the turgid flood. At this point the river is very deep and exceedingly swift, racing along with torrential speed. The water is also very muddy, carrying as it does the
