Base Ball Dinner.

I Mrs. j. w. Bush assisted by Miss
Shabino and Miss Crawford entertained
the base ball squad at a sumptuous din
ner Wednesday evening. The whole
team was present also Umpire Freeman
and Manager Marshall. The dining
room and table was prettily and appro-
priately decorated, emblematic of the
national game. Especially notable was
a diamond of violets in the center of
the table. surrounding pyramid of
nine inch five ounce spheroids. Neat
base ball place cards assisted the diners
to find their places at the table. The
boys did full justice to all the good
things provided and then there was q
jolly season Of ''songs, dances and
funny sayings" The occasion served
to bring out the fact that there is con-
siderable musical and minstrel talent in
the bunch. The boys thoroughly
enjoyed and appreciated the occasion
and it was later hour than athletes
are usually allowed to keep when they
bid good night to their charming enter
tainers.

new CITY HALL
A JOY FOREVER
Contractors Complete Work
Ahead Of Schedule Time
Building Appears to Suit the Tastes Of All
Who See lt-Commodious and
Modernly Equipped.

The city hall was finished two days
ahead Of the time called for in the
contract. The contractors, Ritter
bush and Westegaard, outdid them
selves in hustling the bricks and timbers
together, and the hall is ready in
plenty of time for the firemen's tourna-
ment. The citizens went after the
hall with spirit Of push and enter
prise, and the contractors pushed the
work to completion with the same
earnestness.
The building is 50x8O feet and is
built of brick with concrete stone
trimmings. The front on Second street
rises % feet above the sidewalk and in
the center stands out in large letters
''City Hail." The main room or coun-
Gil room, sits on a high basement,
and is entered from Second street by
means Of a short fight of stairs.
This room is 37x50 feet and will give
the city fathers an excellent place for
meeting as well as convenient place
for other gatherings in which the
citizens may be interested. OFF from
this are the cloak and toilet rooms, and
Immediately to the left of these ia a
door entering the engine hall or leading
to the Jail underneath. The Jail is the
same size as the floor above and has a
solid floor of concrete. In this is
placed two steel cells for the confne-
ment of prisoners. A door opens from
Elm street into the basement as well as
from the council and engine rooms.
The engine room is spacious large
in fact that the present apparatus
of the fire department seems lost in it.
It is 43x50 feet in dimensions and is
from lS to 20 feet in height. The floor
here also is of concrete and has sink
in the back end where the hose can be
turned on at any time and the water
will go to the sewer.
The hall has all modern conveniences.
It is now ready for any kind of old
thing that may come along-the gas is
there, the telephone is there, the fire.
fighting apparatus is there, and the
Jail is there. 1t is hoped, however, the
latter will not be needed.
The City of Oakes now has as fine a
hall as any city Of its size in the ccun-
try All have been sizing it up as they
pass by-since it was completed-and
we have failed to hear anything yet
but-*'nice hall that" t'well that's
swell" nothing the matter with
that" and such CALCULATIONS. The
citizens of Oakes have right to feel
proud of their enterprise. and they owe
q vote Of thanks to Messrs. Middaugh,
Sutmar and Boardman, who were en-
trusted with the management of its
erection.
