one went to the Eiler show and seemed
to have received their moneys worth.

fully the number OF people advertised,
and their band and orchestra proved
very satisfactory, far SURPRISING those
OF the average travelling shows, being
liberal in the number Of selections rend-
cred before the performance. The King
Of the Cattle Ring pleased the audience.
The different members of the company
worked hard to entertain the good sized
audience present and in this they sue
ceeded in doing with the Hal Reid play.
The small boys say 'best show ever been
to town" and when it comes to judging
lurid melodrama, with its liberal gun
play, defeated Williams, accompanied by
its conventional red fire and staccato
music - the brave hero winning the
gal-just leave it to the small boy; they
know the goods and must be shown.
After the performance, many attended
the Easter dance given at Red Men hall,
1t being accorded the best attendance OF
the season. Then the supper given by
the Ladies' Aid society of the Presby-

have received notice from the United
States circuit court of appeals to the
effect that the so-called Economy cream
separator they had purchased OF Sears,
Roebuck a. Co. had been declared an in

any more OF the separators, and they
were also forced to bring their books in

sold the machines. The users are now
being notified that they must not use
them. The separator was an infringe

School Election.

There will be meeting OF the voters
OF district IL at the school house in Ell
bert on the first Monday in May, for the
purpose OF electing secretary OF the
school board. The taxpayers are also
requested to consider the matter Of the
school tax. AT present it is eight mills,
but there are unpaid warrants against
the district aggregating in round mum
bers $1,000. The expense OF running the
school for one year, including teachers
salaries, fuel and small incidental ex-
penses as chalk, erasers, window glass.
stove repairs, etc, is in the neighborhood
OF 81 $50. This spring the repairs on the
school house are to be made in accord
ance with the architects recommended
tions, and this will certainly be large
item Of expense. All things considered
1t would seem wise to raise the school
tax. We ask the voters to give this sub
ject their serious consideration, and to
come to the meeting May 4th prepared
to state their wishes in regard to this
tax question.
Respectfully,
