got the price of the hat, he answered
the question by displaying roll of

pretty good fellow, but since he went
to farming radical change has taken
place. He now wears the brand of

Davenport ever sees him there will be
a dollar mark cartoon in the Press.
Chas. Dunn, who is employed in
the 0. R. & N. offices at Tekoa, sends
the Press picture of string Of fish
which he and friend caught on re-
cent trip. They made catch of 40
pounds of trout in four hours. Charles

A reception was given in honor of
Miss Bessie Miller of Union at the
opera house last evening. Cards and
dancing were the features of enter
tainment and refreshments were
served. Miss Miller, who is niece of
w. G. Miller, leaves this evening for
her home in Union.
Cards are out announcing the ap-
preaching marriage nuptials of Miss
Sybil Mcdaniel, daughter Of Mr.. and
Mrs. Asa Mcdaniel of Pendleton, and

Daniel spent her early girlhood in
Athena and has host of friends here
who wish her success and happiness.
Lillian Tompkins, a bright little
Miss of nine summers, had the honor
of capturing the second prize for dolly
work at the fair held in Pendleton
last week. In competition with this
little girls work were many exquisite
specimens, and her success is all the
more appreciated by her Athena
friends for the reason that the design
mastered by her, holly piece, was
her first effort and further because
she had never taken lessons in fancy
work.

Eruptions Appeared on Chest, and

Out-Cured by Cuticura.

T had an eruption appear on my
chest and body and extend upwards
and downwards, so that my neck and
face were all broken out; also my
arms and the lower limbs as far as
the knees. l at first thought it was
prickly heat. But soon scales or
crusts formed where the breaking out
was. Instead of going to physician l
purchased a complete treatment OF the
Cuticura Remedies, in which l had
great faith, and all was satisfactory.
A year or two later the eruption ap-
peared again, only little lower; but
before it had time to spread l pro-
cured another supply of the Cuticura
Remedies, and continued their use un-
til the cure was complete. 1t is now
five years since the last attack, and
have not seen any signs of a return.

SECOND HAND MAIL BOXES.
Why a Little Village May Have Big
Numbers in Its Post Office.

The man who was spending his
summer vacation in the country was
looking quizzically at the mail boxes
in the rural post office.
'I did not know this was such
large place." he said Il thought it
had a population of only about 1000,
but the mail box numbers run much
higher than that, and l don't suppose
every one in town rents box either.
The postmaster peered out of his
little barred window.
81 can explain that" he said. You
see the country post offices never
get new boxes, but we have those
left over when the city establishments
make over their Offices and get new
boxes. So you see lots of country
places are bound to have high num-
ber boxes.
Although our numbers run over
1000, you won't find any less than
1000, some other country post office
drew the lower ones. l myself would
rather get the big numbers, for 1t
makes us seem like bustling little
sity."

Linens Are Soft and Drapy.

This season linens come in much
softer fabrics than ever before. They
are never as stiff as in former years,
and often thinner than we have had
them for outdoor gowns in times past,
although such gowns are never made
of transparent linen.
Favorite colors in linen are pink,
raspberry, gray, browns and tans,
blues, greens and some manuves. This
Is a summer of colors, but, neverthe.
less, the white linen gown Is more
popular than any other kind.

Pretty Autumn Wedding Occurred Last
Evening.

Miss Augusta Bertram, of this
city, was married last evening to
Rev. John D. Rumsey of Manches-
ter, Iowa, the ceremony taking place
at the home of the brides sister,
Mrs. Lydia Schwertfeger, 804 East
Ninth street. The wedding was a
quiet affair only the immediate
friends and relatives of the con-
tracing parties being present. The
rooms Of the house were very prettily
decorated with chrysanthemums and
potted ferns, in honor of the occasion
and the ceremony was performed by
Rev. Judson Kempton, of the First
Baptist church, using the beautiful
ring service. The bridal couple
was attended by two small ring
bearers only, Agnes Schwertfeger
and Zillah Rumsey. The wedding
march was played by Laura Porter.
The bride was gowned in robe
of white silk and carried brides
roses.
After Rev. and Mrs. Rumsey had
received the congratulations of their
friends, the company repaired to the

Frank Dixon.

Frank Dixon, the second numbe,
on the local Lecture course, appeared
before comfortably filled house
last. Wednesday evening, and de-
livered his singularly strong and
entertaining lecture on THE Man
and the Masses" While the subject
was not of immediate interest to
many of those in attendance, yet the
brilliant lecturer, handicapped BIZ
physical infirmity, presented his
subject 50 cleverly, discoursed SO
earnestly, SO entertainingly and so
convincingly that he aroused the
manifest and laudable interest Of
his auditors, aud impressed upon
them the vital substance of his
theme. His reference to Iowa's
senior senator, and his statement ito
uphold the worthy man but let the
heel of contempt crush the scoun-
drel to the earth" brought forth
vigorous applause; his admiration
for the strenuous force, the I'M
baffled resourcefulness, and the
plucky initiative of the honest sue
cessful man Of affairs was sympa-
thetically approved by the audience;
his final appeal for the preservation
of individuality in contradistinction
to the restrained mediority and the
remuneration of individual enter
prise expounded in the socialistic
doctrines made fitting climax for
his previous statements. Mr.. Dixon
may feel assured of we'll filed
house should he ever again appear
before local audience.

Black Hawk County Bar Banquets
Judge Blair.

The Times-Tribune gives the fol-
lowing account of the banquet
rendered Judge A. S. Blair at Water
loo last Friday evening.
The members If the Black Hawk
County Bar Association banqueted
Judge A. S. Blair, who will retire
from the judgeship January l, at the
Logan House last evening. All the
members Of the bar, with the ex-
ception of those who were prevented
from attending on account Of sick
ness, were present. The forepart Of
the evening was spent in telling
"reminiscences and short stories and
listening to Kilpatrick's orchestra,
which furnished the music for the
occasion.
The elaborate fve-course banquet
was served at 1920 o'clock, and af-
ter this the toasts and speeches were
given. Nearly all of those present
gave toasts to Judge Blair and other
members of the bar.
Attorney G. E. Pickett acted as
POSTMASTER and acquitted himself
in a highly creditable manner. At
torney COPYRIGHT, at the close Of the
banquet, arose and in behalf of the
members Of the Black Hawk County
Bar Association presented Judge
Blair with a costly and luxurious
arm chair. The veteran Judge made
reply and thanked from the bottom
Of his heart the members for their
kindness and good will, which had
been shown by their action. The
dining hall was beautifully decorat-
ed as beftted the occasion, which
was made a memorable one, by the
hospitality and the sociability shown
by the members of the bar toward
the retiring judge.
