The Maine.

Washington, May S. Now that
congress has passed a bill to raise
the Maine and bury the bodies of
the 53victims harrington cemetery
the mystery of the explosion may
be solved.
A doubt as to the real cause of
the sinking of the Maine in Havana
harbor the night of February IS.
1898, has always fingered, despite
the findings of the naval court of
inquiry. The findings of that body
were to the effect that the explo-
sion which wrecked the ship and
caused the death of 264 sailors and
two officers was either from a sub
marine mine or torpedo.
The Spanish authorities disclaim-
ed any responsibility, asserting after
an inquiry Of their own, that the
explosion was inside the ship.

He's Back.

Our genial postmaster has returned
from flying visit to Omaha. Usually,
such trips are "on business" but this
one was pleasure trip. No doubt,
some of the furniture stores" in
Omaha think some business was at
tended too also; but that's the kind of
business which is pleasure. OF
course, he wasn't buying the furniture
for himself-w were not insinuating
that; but it must have been particular
piece of work. for he took someone
along to help in the selection. While
in Omaha Mr.. White made a flying trip
over to Osceola, Nebraska, to visit

1ha3ssuing of a new series of stock
in thcs Building and Loan Association
is bsie very favorably discussed by
those do have been interested in this

desirssto take stock in the new issue.
Perhaps no other enterprise has accom-

town for the amount of money and
energy expended than has our local
Building and Loan Association.
A new series would be able to start
under very favorable conditions q
money can be secured outside the as.

Pleased Her Audience

The entertainment given last Monday
evening in the M. E. church by Mrs.
Bess Gearhart Morrison, was one of
the best ever given here and was
thoroughly appreciated by the audience.
Very often an entertainment given by
a reader alone becomes tiresome on ac-
count of its lack of variety but Mrs.
Morrison has such an extensive roper
toire and changes so completely from
one character to another that from the
first number to the closing she held her
audience intensely interested and
and the only disappointment was oc-
casioned by the fact that the program
was not longer. 1t would be hard to
say which one of her characters was
most interesting as they were all so
full of life. A return date by Mrs.
Morrison will be welcomed by all who
heard her at any time it may be ar
ranged
