One thousand square yards Of
special scenery, all on magnificent
scale and adjustable to any sized
stage, is carried by the Frank David
son company. This assures absolute
scenic perfection to 1.-THE Folks up
Willow Creek" and will virtually
make all entire new stage in our
opera house, all of the stock scenery
being removed. Such a display of
mechanical effects was never be-
fore attempted, and is well worth
seeing. The date is Nov. %.
The hunters up north are hav-
ing rare sport killing deer-and
each other. They are shipping car
cases all over the state, and when
a game warden finds one improper

takes it home. There were lis
carcases shipped into Milwaukee
last Saturday. Lancaster sportsmen
report good results for them.

COMMERCIAL CLUB
Discusses Sugar Beets and Adyertls-
ing Monday Evening.

The Lancaster Commercial Club
met in regular session at the
council chamber in the city hall
Monday evening. President Sho
walter and Secretary Evans being
absent, R. Meyer called the meet
ing to order and Robert Glenn was
elected chairman and E. B.. Good
sell secretary for the evening.
At the request of DR.. NARROW DR..
Reeds name was substituted for his
as member of the lighting COM
mittee.
In the report of Geo. FL. Baxter,
chairman of the Industrial COM
mittee, matters relating to the beet
sugar industry were largely dis
cussed. There was a general dis
Gus ion, participated in by R. Meyer,
E. B. Goodsell, L. d. Eastman and
others. 1t Was moved by DR.. Mar
low that the club act as committee
for the solicitation of acreage for
the Madison Sugar company, and
that the proceeds be covered into
the treasury of the club. Motion
carried.
r. Meyer moved that the In
dustrial committee arrange to rent
five or six acres of land at such
places as the expert from the uni
versity shall designate to be used
for the club in experimenting in the
raising of beets. Carried.
Mr.. Webb, of the ''rest room'
committee, reported the arrange
ments made for the council chamber
with the city council committee,
and the club voted to thank sthe
committee for the prompt and eff
cient action taken.
L. D. Eastman, of the committee
on railroad accommodations, report
ed that the desired car had been pro-
cured and is now in service.
Mr.. Meyer introduced Mr.. Larkin
of the Inter Ocean Publishing COM
panY, who addressed the club rela-
tive to a write-up of the city and
surrounding county, in the Inter
Ocean.
A motion was carried that it is
the sense of the club that an adj
vertisement in the Inter-Ocean,
such as was suggested by NJ.
LarlSin, is looked upon with favor
by the club, provided Mr.. Larkln
can procure the necessary subscrip
ton for the purpose. After discus
sion, the motion was carried.
Mr.. Larkin is now soliciting the
city to procure the necessary money
for the write-up. We hear that ne
wanted $500 for a page and $500 for
"a half page write-up, and that the
same thing would appear in four
teen smaller syndicate dailies. Mr..
Larkin is said to have raised some
thing like 5000 about town.
The clue has made a very wise
move in seriously taking up the
sugar beet subject. The culture of
sugar beets and establishment OF a
factory In community will pro-
duce much wealth and labor. The
fact has been proven absolutely,
and the figures are easily attainable.

POTOSI.

POTOSI.
Father time has again added anotE-
er spoke in the wheels of progress and
we are on the eve of another Thanks
giving Day. Thanksgiving is legal
holiday in the United States, where it
is generally observed as day upon
which to return thanks to God for the
blessings of the year. The custom is
reputed to be of great antiquity, hav-
ing been borrowed as some declare
from the Mosaic law, however, this
may be the origin of Thanksgiving
day in the United States is due to
the early settlers of New England.
During the Civil war and subsequent
ly the day has been appointed by
the ma ional executive. Churches
of the various denominations observe
Thanksgiving day in accordance with
their particular creed. In the homes
of citizens without respect to religion,
faith or church utilization, it is made a
day of merriment and feasting at
which families long separated are re-
united and ceremonies of a social
cl ar4cter prevail; and on Thursday
next, as we gather around the festive
board let us be thankful. Ii we can't
be thankful for the things we havel.'
got, let us be thankful there are some
things we haven't got, and if nothing
else occurs to you, be thankful you
are not the turkey.
