Messrs Christian, Hedrick and Beat
tie are associated, owns and operates
five of the best known guest houses
and cafes in the country, all being on
the European plan. Oskaloosa people
are loath to part with Mr.. Beattie and
his excellent wife. They are the sort
of people one likes to know. They
have made hosts of friends with the
residents of the city druing their stay

regretting the departure, Oskaloosa
friends congratulate Mr.. Beattie upon
his advancement and the promotion
that has come to him. He goes into
a larger field with greater property
to be under hIs direction. He has
shown remarkable cdpability and ex-
acutive ability in his management Of
the Lace property aad nc will be
equally successful in his work in the
new Slavery. All Oskaloosa extends
congratulations and best wishes.

cess. He is a thorough hotel man
and knows the business in every
branch and detail He is a popular
man with the travelling puoliU and he
will be equally well liked among the
people of the city. Mr.. Graham will
be here some time next week to en-
terrain the duties of his administra-
