Helen Watson, Helen Ward, Mag
dalene Posthumus, Fannie Goss and
Mrs. Hives, and Messrs. Harvey
Young, Walter Maliskey, Frank
Ward, Earl Lewis and LeValley

much promise, and reflected much
credit upon their teacher, Miss

work.
The Orpheus quartet, consisting
of Messrs. Bruce Satterla, Earle
Lewis, Walter Maliskey. and Frank
Ward. and the young ladies quartet
consisting of Misses Fannie Goss
Magdelene Posthumus, Helen Ward
and Mrs. Beehler, sang with great

Braga's Serenade, and was heartily
encored. She received a fine bou-
quet.
Miss Westcott is to be congratu-
lated upon the fine work of her pu-
pills, on their first appearance,
which more than demonstrates her
ability as an able instructor and
voice builder.

NARA VISA LANDS.

AS people are rapidly availing
themselves of this opportunity to
secure a fine farm home, it is only
a matter OF a few months until the
land within eighteen or twenty
miles OF the railroad will be filed
on, and persons desiring land close
to the railroad and towns should
not delay their coming.
The land located in Union coun.
ty, New Mexico, is subject to the
homestead laws of the United
States. The land varies in quality
from a red sandy soil to a dark,
rich chocolate loan with a fine clay
subsoil at a depth of twenty inches
to three feet, and in many places
the soil itself is from a to 8 feet in
depth. The water is obtained from
drilled wells at a depth of from 27
feet to $50 feet, and is unsurpassed
for purity and softness. There is
no alkali water anywhere in the
country surrounding Nara Visa.
The town of Nara Visa is situa-
ted on the c. r. l. & P. Ry., SOC
miles southwest of Kansas City. II
is a thriving little town of some
hundreds of people and is rapidly
growing. 1t lies on rather rolling
ground, making an ideal spot for a
good little city. Thousands oil
claims will be filed on within the
next twelve months in the country
tributary to Nara Visa, and there
is no doubt that her hundreds oil
population will grow into the
thousands within a few months,
Already the town is we'll repre-
scented with mercantile establish,
mems, but there are still room fol
more. With the thousands of fami
lies tributary to our town, there
will be openings for various indus
tries. Investigate Nara Visa, i
may be just the place you are
looking for. N Visa Mexican

Confederate uniforms, the
"rebel YELL" and the stains of
Dixie made life gay in Fulton

eleventh annual reunion of Mis-
souri, Confederate Veterans,
which began Wednesday and
ended Thursday afternoon.
About four hundred veterans,
a host of pretty girls as spon-
sors and maids of honor, and
the wives of a few of the vet
Grams, were in attendance.
Many of the visitors were en-
tertained in the homes of Full
ton, while the others were
quartered at the hotels. The
visitors were met at the rail-
road station by a reception
committee and conducted to a
bureau of information down
town where they were assigned
homes.
We quote the following ex-
cerpts from the Gazette:
"The opening meeting was

The parade of veterans
Thursday morning was spec
tacular and inspiring, with its
martial music and display of
Confederate flags. The grand
marshal was Senator w. s..
McClintic, of Monroe City. In
the procession were the spon-
sors, maids of honor, General
Stone and staff, and over two
hundred veterans. The parade
was headed by the Fulton band.
1t formed at the Palace Hotel,
went to the Hospital for In
sane, and returned to Pratt's
Theater. The ladies rode in
carriages, and General Stone
and his staff were mounted.
The occasion furnished many
of the younger people of the
city their first opportunity to
see Confederate army Officers
in full war trappings.
Thursday mornings session
was devoted entirely TO bust

formerly a representative in
congress, and one of the yodng-
est Confederate soldiers living

concerning the business affairs
of the organization, speaking
particularly of the necessity OF
electing a state historian to re
cord the events of the war. He
spoke strongly against the mis-
representations of the Confed
eracy in the school histories
used in Missouri.
The report of the committee
on credentials was presented
and showed twenty-five camps

Col. Baker Honored.

rhe article below is taken from
the Prosser (Wash.) Bulletin.
Mr.. Baker was a former citizen OF
this county. residing for a number
Of years on n farm near Worcester,
later moving to baddonia aud from
thence TO Washington. The Wash
ingtou paper says: IL has leaked
out that the friends of Col. G. q.
Baker. president of the Benton
County Fair Association. under
the leadership OF the board Of man.
ayers Of the fair. are arranging to
give the worthy PRESIDENT a lit.
tie surprise party" on his birthday
which will be Monday. the 10th.
For several days a rumber Of the
cOlonel's friends have been noted
in frequent conferences. until their
rather mysterious actions have ex-
cited the curiosity Of numerous citi
zens. Il was suggested by a few,
not on the inside. that there must
besome political movement on foot;
by others that some new secret So
ciety was about to be organized,
but il appears that some Sherlock
Holmes has SO far interested him
self as to get at the true inward
ness of the matter, aud that he has
let tue cat out"
II appears that in recognition OF
the splendid services Of Col. Baker
in his untiring efforts for the sue
cess of the fair, aud for the Rue re-
suits he has so far attained. iusur-
ing the success OF Benton county's
big show, his friends have planned
to present him with gold souvenir
badge. appropriately engraved,
on his flfty-sixth birthday. which
as above stated. will occur next
Monday. two days before the open
ing Of the fair.
The Bulletin was unable to aseer'
tain the details of the arrangement
for the formal presentation, but has
heard the report that il will take
place at some point in the business
district on Monday evening after
the business houses are closed.
| II is to be hoped that. this thing
may not be done 10 a corner" q.

of Col. Bakers friends, who 81
highly appreciate his fiue work ROl
the Benton county fair, may be per
United 10 show by their presencl
that the well done thou good ant

whole community.
/ Benton county is going to havt
a big show, one that will thorough
ly open the eyes of the northwest
and this is in great measure due /,
the fact that the right man was pu
in the right place when Col Bake

last weeks Vandalia Leader:
Mexico, Mo-, September Ia.
On Saturday of last week !
received a message from my
old friend, Cam Foster to come
down and go to Elk Lick as
fishing was ripe and it was
not long before ! was on my
way. When ] arrived at Van
dalia / found him all booted
and spurred and everything in
readiness and in a few min
utes we hiked out for the home
of the Bass, where found q
very comfortable little shack,
a nice Improvement made since
/ was there last. On Sunday
following Baz Lewellen and
Tom Moss paid US a visit, and
on Monday Mr.. Dan Bowen and
Phil Daniel came in; on Tues
day, Gene Reynolds and a.
friend of his came In with a
fine box of good things and on
Wednesday Bill Hughes and
Dan Morgan, two game old
sports as ever clicked a reel,
showed up.
They pranced up and down
the bank of the. creek like four
year olds. Gene Reynolds and
a friend of his kept camp
while Foster and ! went fish
ing and after going to the
springs and drinking of the
Notwithstanding water Of Elk
Lick, we hied away to Fosters
favorite fishing hole; as we
made our way through tangled
horse weeds for some distance
we got out our lines, and as
Foster is an expert angler he
soon landed nine fine bass. AS
he stood looking for that cork
to go under he was as happy
as he was when a small boy
and got his first pair of pants,
or when he would go out in the
mud barefooted and see the
mud push up between his toes,
In the meantime ! caught
four bass and a number Of Ike
Meals little sunfish, altogether
making a fine mess. The Sec
ond day we did little or no
good as the fish seemed to all
be away that day. On the third
day we went up the creek sew
eral miles, and Foster knowing
the country, took the first place,
sending me about a mile up the
creek, when, from what he told
me, / thought the bass would
