Times issued in 1870 for an

that the paper of that date con-
tanned nine columns of live ads
of the merchants of this city.
That is about four times as
many columns Of ads as the
Times contains now. Can it be
possible that Mo. Valley lacks
four times as much of being as
good a town as it was 35 years
ago? The amount of ads in
dictate it.

The open session of the Art
Club was entertained, last night
by Mrs. G. P. Smiley, Mrs. NJ. G.
Burbank, Mrs. Frank Hoyer nd
Mrs. Hattie Wilson, at the home
of Mrs. Smiley. About twenty
invited guests of the Club were
present. The ladies received
the guests at the door, and by
8 o'clock, the handsome parlors
of the Smiley home were COM
Portable filled with a happy
throng of people. The ladies
of the Club had invited DR.. De
Wore to deliver his lecture on
his trip abroad, before the audi
ence. and at $50, Mrs. A. Edge
COMB, President OF the Club, in
a neat talk, explained what tie
Club had done in the past year
in the way of study, and what
Il expected to do this year, ard
then INTRODUCED DIR. DeVore who
for an hour spoke of his trip,
giving very interesting talk
Of his trip from the time he left
New York until his return. He
took his hearers with him to Ma
Piles, giving ayiyid description of
that old place, its people, their
customs, then to Pompii, and
Mount Vesuvius. Then he took
themto Rome and told them of
the Churches and Catecombs
Of the ancient city. He told Of
his visit to Florence, the home
of art in Italy, giving a very
fine description Of the art gall
eriesand public buildings of that
city. He then described his
trip through Holland, France,
Germany, and England, and
then on to the United States.
The lecture was a very inter
esting one and highly enjoyed
by all who were privileged to
hear it. After the lecture, cards
We're distributed, half of them
having the name Of some Mag
azine and the other half having
a sentence that would describe
the Magazine, and much fun
was made in the hunt for part
ners. After all had found their
affinity small tables were
brought out and a two course
luncheon w as served. Miss
Helen Moves, Miss Mable- Will
son, Miss Evangel Livingston,
and Miss Anna Smiley, assisted
the hostesses in serving. After
supper, an hour was spent in
social chat, and at midnight the
company departed for their re-
spective homes, feeling that tie

Old papers, a big bundle fol-
5 cents. j. D. Brown & Son.

From a letter just received
from Mrs. F. A. Merritt, of
Jetmore, Kansas, we learn that
they have had very cold, stormy
weather with considerable snow
and II deg. below zero. Many
stockmen, not anticipating such
cold weather, may find it hard
to pull through with their stock.
The condition Of Miss Jose
phene Johnson is about the same
There came very near being a
fire down at the railroad shops
last night. The roof of the ma
chine shop was set on fire by
sparks from the smoke stack,
and before it was discovered a
hole about three feet square
had been burned in the roof. =
Had there been a high wind at
the time, Missouri Valley would
surely had new shops in the
spring.

Councilman C. A. Walker, of

saw him out with scoop shovel
yesterday evening, shoveling
snow onto the track where the
boys slide down the hill on 18th
street. The snow had thawed
off, and the sliding was bad, so
c. A. went out and "fixed it up
as good as new" That act
made CLANCY feel better to-
wards the world, and made the
boys think that there was no
fellow just exactly as good as
G. A. Walker. 1t is safe to bet
that none Of the kids who saw
CLANCY FIX the street yesterday
evening will steal any apples
off his trees next summer.
