Just a Little Stag Party.

Just little bit the jolliest social
event ever pulled off in Montpelier
was the stag party last Friday night
at the home Of DIR. G. A. Hoover.
Tom Douglas was the guest of
honor and about sixteen of his old
friends dropped IN to talk over old
times and "swap few yarns" with
him. Tom is royal entertainer
and when he got warmed up the bal
ance of the guests hardly had
chance to get a word in edgeways.
After. enjoying fragrant hayanas
and relating old time incidents in
Montpelier for an hour or more the
guests were invited to the dining
room to partake of delicious lunch,
which had been prepared wholly by
the doctor. There were good things
galore and after all had did ample
justice TO them, Tom continued to
spin few more of his yarns in
that inimitable style of his. 1t was
midnight before anyone thought of
going home aud then with hearty
hand.sbakes they bade Tom good
bye and expressed the hope that
they might have the pleasure of
again meeting him at a similar
gathering in the near future. 1t
was truly royal affair-one that
will ever be pleasantly remembered
tby each one who was there.

Talked Water Works.

F. &. Kelsey, city engineer of
Salt Lake, spent yesterday in the
city. He met with the water works
committee yesterday evening and
talked over matters in general with
them. Mr.. Kelsey is supervising
the installation of the water system
at Rexburg. A year ago, he said.
the people OF Rexburg wouldn't talk
water works at all, but last fall the
spirit moved them and after the
council ascertained the approximate
cost of installing a system, the citi-
zens voted almost unanimously to
bond the town for $50, 900 for that
purpose.

A NEW INDUSTRY.
F. w. Brock & Co. to Establish a
Steam Laundry Here Secured
Richardson Property.

That Montpelier IS soon to have
a steam laundry is now an assured
thing. 1t will be put in by f. W..
Brock q Co., of Logan. Mr.. Brock
spent several days here three weeks
ago and secured an option on several
pieces of property. He finally de-
cided upon the Richardson property
on Main street, and took 1T on five
year lease. A 3O-foot extension
will be added to the present build
ing, which will give them floor
space of 2ax72 feet.
The plant, which has been ordered
shipped from Chicago on May 90,
comprises all of the latest improved
machinery for steam laundry and
the plant, when ready for operation,
will represent an expenditure OF
about $500 This, Of course, does
not include the cost of erecting the
addition to the building, digging a
cess pool and other expense neces-
sary to putting the plant in opera
tion.
Mr.. Brock, who is practical
laundry man, will have personal
charge of the laundry and he assures
us that with the machinery the COM
pany is putting in, he will be able
to turn out strictly first-class work
equal TO that of any of the steam
lanndrles in Pocatello, Ogden or
Salt Lake.

Doings Of City Council.


The city council met in adjourned
session Monday night to take some
action towards settling the boundary
lines of the city.
Some months ago DR.. Poynter,
then a member of the council, stated
that he bad made a rather hurried
inspection of the records at Paris
but was unable to find any evidence
that Montpelier was ever inccrpor-
ated, except the minutes of the COM
missloners' proceedings which stated
that the petition asking tor incor-
poration had been granted. Mr..
Poynter stated at that time that if
the city ever expected to issue bonds
for any purpose 1t was very essential
that the county records should show
that the law was fully complied
with at the time the town was in
corporated. No action was taken
by the council at that time, but the
question was again brought up at
the regular council meeting last
week, and City Attorney Cough
was requested to 60 to Paris and see
if he could find the petition for in
corporation and plat Of the town as
filed with the comm issioners in
1891.
Mr.. Cough stated to the council
Monday night that he spent several
hours going through the records
but was unable to. find the needed
papers. He thought, however, that
the papers might be among the
ssstacks and piles of documents in
the court house cellar, and as the
records regarding incorporation
were in very bad shape, he suggest
ed that it would be we'll for the city
to employ some person to make a
thorough search for the original in
corporation papers.
Mr.. Cough also stated that it
would be advisable for the council
to pass an ordinance defining the
boundaries of the town, as shown on
the council minutes at the time
Montpelier was made city of the
second class.
Acting upon Mr.. Coughs sugges.
, tions, motion was passed authorlz.
J ing the appointment of a person to
search the records at Paris for the
required papers. The president OF
the council appointed City CLERK
Harris.
r Upon motion the ordinance com
