and he has since been getting literature
pertaining to engines and other equip

private secretary to care for his CORE
spondence.
At st. Benedicts court G. O.. F. in
st. George the officers for the ensuing
year were Installed on Sunday and a
number OF people from this city, mem
bers of the local order were present to
take part in the reception which fol-
followed the installation. AS is usu-

| OF people were present and they all
had a good time

Annual meetings of the banks of this
city as we'll as those of most of the
cities in this part of this country, show
that the year has been a very pros
porous one not only for them but for
all with whom they do business. It is
argued by those who have studied
things that this is to be the last of the
prosperity, that the good times will
reach their climax in 1906 and condi-
tions will then be the reverse.
Between the St. Louis and the North
western tracks opposite the ST. Louis
depot, there is a deep valley, made by
the entertainments of the roads. This
has been partly filed with water and
affords an excellent skating rink that
is a source of happiness to many OF
the children of the city. There is no
danger such as is found on the river
and there is not an evening when a
dozen or more are not there to enjoy
themselves.
In clearing up the condemned trees
in German park the committee was
able to realize from the sale of the
wood about $50. The average price

the trees cut down were cottonwoods.

tree.
The enlisted men of Co. A will give
prize masquerade ball at Star hall
on Saturday evening of this week, to
which they will allow the ladies free
admission. There is no question but
that the ball will be success in the
way of atfording entertainment for all
who go to it, as these affairs usually
do attract and hold the crowd until
long past midnight. The members OF
the company will be pleased to see
others there besides those who belong
to the militia.
| Eugene V. Debbs, the great expo
nent of socialism and labor agita tor,
once candidate for the presidency on
! the labor ticket has been secured to
deliver lecture at Turner Theatre on
the 23d of February. He announces
no topic for the evening, but from
what is known of the lecture suitable
topic would be "Liberty," and along
these lines none are better able to talk
than Mr.. Debbs. His coming to this
city will be anxiously waited for by a
large number of people.
