THANKSGIVING AND PRAYER FOR
ABOLITION OF SALOONS IN COLUMBIA

The services at the First Methodist
Church Sunday night in commemora
ton Of the abolition Of the saloons
from Columbia was most impressive,
and was indeed a service Of thanksgiy-
ing and prayer. Il was a union ser
vice Of the First Methodist and the
First Cumberland congregations and
the attendance was large.
The service was opened BY a pray
er by Rev W. A. Provine, which was
followed by splendid muisc by the
chorus choir.
Rev. Mr.. Cherry announced the oc-
casion as an open meeting of praise
and thanksgiving for radiance from the
curse of the open saloon He called
upon Mr. John Latta. veteran in The

and repeating over and over again.
"Hallelujah! Glory to God; Peace on
earth and good win toward man." 1t
was a great day in Columbia that cele-
brated a risen Christ and a dead sa-
loon.
He told of his long experience as
an officer; how he had spent sleepless
nights watching to catch yiolators of

was legalized, yet was a lawless insti-

hard towards you for interfering with
my pleasure and what / thought was
my rights. but now / am glad, and I
feel that without your restraining in
fluenee l would have gone the drunk
ards way" Mr.. Latta made a strong
appeal to the officers TO do their duty
in the fullest sense of the word: tell
ing them that he realized fully the diff
fieulties in their way: but their duty
demanded that they should overcome
those difficulties by untiring vigilance
He also made a strong appeal to the
young men to be men; telling them
that after all. neither laws nor officers
could make men, but that every man
must be strong In himself.
The audience gave Mr.. Latta the
closest attention, and there was de-
picted upon every countenance deep
interest In his message; coming, as it
did, from one who, more than any 9TH
er man, has struggled and fought and
suffered and stood for the deliverance
of this his native county from the
blighting influence Of the open saloon

coin.

millions OF acres of Western farm
lands we're opened up to settlement
by homesteaders. an act which has
been credited with doing more than
any other one thing for the develop
nent OF the West.
Mr. Grow was the last surviving
member Of a family Of six children.
he was never married. n

GOODMAN'S HALF
COSTS $4,000
Helena Men Buys interest In Capt.
tai Saloon at Murry and
AuItman.

Initial steps were taken yesterday
looking toward the removal of one OF
Ely's oldest landmarks. The Capitol
saloon and club rooms are TO be re-
moved from Aultman, corner of Mm-
ry. opposite the Northern hotel and
the Palace saloon and club rooms
and in place of the old frame struct-
uro, Two story modern reinforced
concrete building is to be erected
The building. now occupied by NJ.
+. Young Tex Rickard and his as
ings erected AT Shelbourne Nevada
The lumber being freighted hundreds
of miles 1t was then and has ever
since been used MS Il saloon and n
gambling house.
Shelbournc. going the way of many
other old time camps and falling into
decline the owners freighted the Old
building to Mineral City, in Robin
son canyon. The lumber in the build
ing was too valuable to be allowed To
go to ruin and loss. thus making il
necessary To move the entire build
ing The building was taken to pieces
and WAS rebuilt at Mineral City.
There il flourished for years as the
leading resort of the camp, and when
that camp too. followed in the wake
of many others even the names Of
which have been forgotten, the sa-
loon was again taken to pieces and
freighted to Ward. and was later
brought to Ely.
AT the time the Capitol was
brought here and established as Il
saloon and gambling house the only
other building here was the one now
known as the Palm, diagonally oppo-
site the site of the Capitol. The Palm
was then the stage station and the re
lay station for the overland pony eX-
press.
The ground on which the Capitol
stands is perhaps the most valuable
in Ely The lot has frontage of %
feet on Aultman street and 100 feel
on Murry street. A half interest in
this land and the business has been
transferred during the last week by
the owners to Sam Goodman and as
sociates OF Helena Mont. for $23,
600.
The lower floor of the new build
ing will be occupied by the saloon
and club rooms and the upper floor
will be used for business rentals.
