One of the most enjoyable events
that has occurred in Ordway lately
was the banquet given by Ordway

The large crowd assembled was en-
tertained with readings, vocal and
instrumental music and finally with
the movements of the drill team OF
the circle. This team consisting OF
sixteen ladies' marched and counter
marched with the precision OF
veterans. Tables were then spread
and the banquet proper was on we
can't attempt to describe that-suifice
it to say that it all, with the exception
NJ the Pueblo ice cream, were Ordway

The Women of Woodcraft OF Ord

NAV they long grow and prosper and
may their banquets become mighty
regular.

To Abolish the House Of Lords

London, Dec. 10.--The abolition Of
the House OF Lords and the substitution
oil long term elective body, patterned
largely sitter the United States Senate, Is
the fsr-rtaehing aim Of the British Cab
met, disclosed today in the decision to
introducs a taxation bill in pertinent in
May, the provisions Of which will fall
almost exclusively upon the people of
wealth. The constant rel sction by the
lord, OF the measures OF the liberal
psitY hes stirred uP storm OF popular
resentment, aud the passage OF the pro-
posei taxation bill is counted on to win
50 much favor that the cabinet can re-
sign in June, thus forcing general
parliamentary election. AS the Lords
will lave nothing to cay regarding the
bill, 1t being bit Of financial legislation,
| it is inevitable that It will pass. The
abolition of the House of Lords sill be
the chief subject OF discussion. Even
the maintenance Of free trade will be
made secondary matter. The liberal
leaders are eudesVoring to hide their
plan 10 the hope of surprising their OPP
ponents. The plan, however, has been
almost completed and there Is no doubt
Of It's adoption.
