From the Tribune:


F. D. Wells has bought the Leon
Morris residence and will move his
family into it March LIST. A. L.
Wells has bought the place now
occupied by his brother, and will
move about the same time. The
place now occupied by Mr.. Wells
will not be left vacant, but we are
not at liberty to mention the names
Of tho parties who have leased it.
Nearly forty new members were
received into the Presbyterian
church last Sunday, and as is
usually the case when anything
happens that concerns Brewster
people, D. v. Lees and the editor
were among tho parties interested.
The next thing in order will be to
build new church, for the old one
will hardly answer the purpose
since 80 many new members have
been secured. Some new Nom ers
were also received at the Methodist
church last Sunday, Presiding
Elder Cowgirl being present to
assist in the ceremony.
A petition has been formulated,
and is now being circulated among
our citizens, praying that an elec-
ton be held to determine whether
or not the village council shall
grant licenses to sell intoxicating
liquors within the limits of this vii
lage. Only ten signers are requir-
ed to make the petition legal, 80
there Is very little doubt but that
the election will be called. This
will be Breswter's first experience
in voting on the license question
and nobody will be greatly surprised
if tho proposition fails, but it will
give the temperance people a chance
to show their colors any way.
