womAN's CULTURE CLUB
Will Form Sections To Study Liter ature, Arts and Languages-cIub
 House Project Discussed.

Last Saturday afternoon, at the in vitation of Mrs. J. c. Blackinton, a company of ladies gathered at her home and took steps towards forming the Woman's Culture Club.
 Papers were read by Mrs. J. Stanley Brown on Harmonious Relation in Club Life" by Mrs. J. M. Eshleman on Value of the Study of Literature" !" and by Mrs. Blackinton on "The Home, the individual and the Community" Miss Irene Balcom favored the con- pany with two vocal solos, and after this programme the feasibility of or ganizing club was discussed.
 This resulted in the adoption of a constitution, and the El Centro Wom- ans Culture Club will complete it's or ganization at meeting to be held No vember 21 at Mrs. Blackinton's home. It is proposed to form sections for the study of literature, Spanish and physical culture, free of charge to ac- tive members. Other sections will be formed for music, art and elocution whenever a sufficient number of mem- bers desire it.
 All who wish to become charter members are invited to attend the meeting next Saturday afternoon at 2:30 o'clock.

MOVING IS NOT BUILDING.
Suit Involving lmperiaIs Building Or dinance Is Decided In Favor of the Defendants-May Be
 Appealed.

Judge Franklin J. Cole, in the I'm perial County Superior Court, Friday, handed down decisions in the cases of the people vs. Mack and the people vs. Mugford in favor of the defendants.
 These were the cases which have been in court for several months and which involved an interpretation of certain clauses in the building ordin- ance of the city of Imperial.
 The particular point involved was as to whether defendants had the right to move frame structure from one location within the fire limits to another location with the same boun. daries, or whether such removal would be considered a construction which the city ordinance clearly pro hibited, so far as that class of build ing is concerned.
 The decision of Judge Cole is to the effect that a removal can not be con. sidered construction.
 Shaw & Brewer represented the city of Imperial and Eshleman & Swing and F. c. Farr were attorneys for the defendants It is probable the case may be appealed.

HAY PRICES GOING HIGHER
Shortage of Crop All Over California Causes Dealers to Predict Rate of
 Twenty-Five Dollars Per Ton.

Hay at $25 per ton is the prediction of dealers on the coast who have been making a survey of the stock in sight The hay crop is short all over the State, caused by the dryness of last spring Hay has been shipped to the larger coast towns from Arizona, and some dealers are planning to get in shipments from the Middle West.
 A. E. Nichols, of Los Angeles, one of the oldest hay and grain dealers in the State, says that the present situation for stock feed is acute, and that he will not be at all surprised to see hay advance to $25 per ton.
 Light receipts for barley at the Los Angeles mills have been effective in sending up the prices $1.OO per ton. The market for barley has been firm all summer and fall.
 A large amount of Imperial Valley hay has been moved out during the past four weeks. In fact, a car famine has been felt here during that period, hay shippers having to delay the fill ing of their orders because of inability to obtain cars.
 Much hay has been shipped to the Colorado river district, for feeding the teams engaged on the Reclamation Service project, and for stock in the Palo Verde Valley, where new settlers have gone in the past few months without feed for their animals.

IMPROVING ENTRANCE
TO YELLOWSTONE PARK.

The recent visit of Secretary of In
terror Garfield to Wyoming is bearing
fruit and will eventually be of i'm
value to that state, says the
Omaha Bee. 1t was Secretary Gar
field who gave orders that $4,000
should be spent in improving the en-
trance into Ye.lows.one park from
Cody, Wyo, and he also ordered many
of the other roads within the park
further improved. The government
has road outfits at different places
in the park and the secretary left or
ders to keep right after the roads to
get them in the best possible condi-
ton. The travel has increased won
derfully during the last year. When
the roads were first cut through the
park, the forest trees were cut simply
wide enough to make room for the
road. This kept the roads in the shade
did not give the sun a chance.
The trees will now be cut for a dis
lance back from the road side.

Defense of the Philippines.

A comprehensive plan has finally
been settled upon for the defense of
the Philippines, and that is TO establish
a fortified military and naval base on
Manila bay. The waters will also
be effectively mined, and for the whole
work congress will be asked to appro-
pirate over Sc, 900, 900. The best means
of defense against ailments of the
stomach, liver, kidneys and bowels Is
Hostetter's Stomach Bitters. 1t will
lone the digestive organs, and thus
strengthen the system so that disease
cannot obtain a foothold. Through its
wonderful ability it has become firmly
entrenched in thousands Of homes all
over the world, and a trial is all that
is necessary to convince you, too. 1t
prevents sick headache, poor appetite,
s'eeplessness, dyspepsia, indigestion,
constituencies, biliousness and female
ills, malaria, fever and ague.

purse OF, the lady at the picnic, and a
young fellow from one of the grading

On Tuesday night in Glenwood
Springs. Mrs. J. F. Greenland,
nee Mabel Burkart, passed away.
The immediate cause OF death
was acute peritonitis and though
the best medical skill was ex-
hausted the disease could not be
arrested and this young life was
quenched. Mrs. Greenland was
reared among our people and en-
ioyed a wide circle of friends.
She was married to Mr.. Greenland
here and leaves not only the be-
reaved husband and her immc-
diate family but babe over one
year old who will thus be de-
prived of a mothers watchful
care. The funeral was held from
the Methodist church on Thurs
day and was attended by a huge
crowd of those who had known
and admired her in lite. The
sincere sympathy OF a host OF
friends IS with the bereaved ones
