DR.. Elmer who has been confined to
his bed for the past three or four weeks
had so far recovered as to be out yes
terday. He has been under the treat
ment of DR.. Coventry the past week
and is rapidly improving.
The Uncle Dan'l show drew good
sized audience Wednesday night. The
show was a great deal better than the
average shows that have been pre-
sented here the past year. Uncle
Dan'l was a very good down east
Yankee.
Three strike breakers arrived here

Was there ever more perfect win
ter day than yesterday. After a week
OF cloudy weather with a heavy fall of
snow, covering the earth and trees
with mantle of purest white, the
bright sunshine was most beautiful.
What makes winter weather in this To-
cality ideal is the entire absence Of
wind.
w. H. Bozart came over from
Ephrata on brief visit to old Leaven-
worth friends Wednesday of this week.
He says Ephrata is improving rapidly
and has got to be one of the best towns,
in the Big Bend. He also told US that
in the prohibition election at Quincy,
on Tuesday of this week, the vets won
by one vote.
Thos. E. Collier, now holding down
a good job on the Oroville branch of
the Great Northern, spent several days
here this week visiting the family of
A. M. Phelan, of whom he is an old
Oklahoma friend. After residing here
about two years he left here nearly
four years ago. Mr.. Collier bears the
evidence of prosperity, physically and
otherwise. May his shadow never
grow less and his prosperity be equal
to his deserts, which are many.
Dr.. Coventry returned the first OF
the week from Vancouver after an alb
sence of over two months. He is max
ing preparations to leave in a few
weeks for Chicago and will likely go
from there to Europe to take a more
advanced course in his profession, and
will likely return to Washington the
latter part of next year. During his
stay in Vancouver he built up a large
practice and gained considerable repu-
tation in number Of medical cases.
DR.. Coventry aside from being an eye
specialist, is an able and proficient
medical practitioner, and will be a
worthy addition to any locality in
which he may decide to locate. 48'
The baseball boys dance was pulled
of in great style last Saturday night.
They spared neither pains nor expense
to make the evening enjoyable Tor
every one who attended, and they
were not disappointed. The giving
away Of the roses to every lady enter
ing the grand march made quite hit
as it was the first time it had been
sprung. Dancing kept up until quite
a late hour, in fact until every one was

and the dance continued. Coulson
made the remark short while alter
