From the immense crowds that
thronged the hall each evening, it was
evident that our citizens set aside their
religious affiliations and entered into
the spirit of the cause with whole
souled heartedness, revealing the fact
that the issue at hand was not one OF
religion only, but one in which every
citizen felt a common interest, this be-
ing manifested by the liberality and
loyalty with which every Newport citi-
zen contributed. B. II.
Members of the Catholic church are
under great obligations to the ladies'
committee who conducted the recent
fair. To Mrs. George Hynes the great
est credit is due. as she has been urtir-
ing in her efforts to make the affair
financial as well as social success. For
many weeks she has neglected her other
duties in order that this end might be
attained. As secretary of the committee
most of the work devolyed upon her.
and Father Folchi and other members
of the church are loud in their praise of
the manner in which she handled the
fair.

Activity at Usk

Civil engineers are at work plating
the new townsite at Usk. The property,
formerly the George III. Jones ranch, is

and it is the intention of the company
to put the property on the market at an
early date. Advices from Usk indicate
that there will be considerable doing
during the next few months. The sur
veying of the townsite is another indi-
cation that the I. & W. n. will build

Dor construction, fertilization con.
struction, hazardous employment in
