Mndison Business Men Complet-
ing Plans For Next Wednes-

The finance committee of the mer-
chants festival to be held in Madi-
son next Wednesday and Thursday,
Dec. 3 and 4, have completed the
work of collecting funds for paying the
expenses of the enterprise to the
amount of about 1856 for which the

vertising space in all the newspapers

the committees having the festival in
charge to make the two days as en-
joyaole as possible for the visitors.
The Madison brass band has been en-.
gagged to enliven the streets with
music on both days, and there will be
minor sports on the streets to furnish
entertainment and which will be en-
gagged in by the visitors. 1t is prob
able that a few prizes will be hung ut
to make the contests in these amuse-
ments interesting. At the noon hour
tickets will be issued to the visitors
for free dinners at the restaurants and
hotels of the city. These will be in
! the hands of committeeman stationed
at the eating places who will give
them out as the visitors arrive for din
ner. In the afternoons and evenings
of both days free tickets to entertain
ments at the Ruby theatre will be
issued to visitors, furnishing an hour

cellent music ~discoursed by the Ruby

days a bowery dance will be held al
Huntemer hall fer the benefit of the
younger people who will visit the
city. For this amusement the usual
fee will be charged. This IN brief il
the line Of enjoyment that will be pro
vided for the visitors, supplemented of
course with hospitable reception and
attention by business men while the
visitors remain their guests. 1t is ex-
pected that everybody in Lake county,
singly, in families and in groups will
visit the city on the festival days
and participate in the enjoyment
that will be provided. Of course ii
will be expected that the visitors will
nelp entertain themselves, as 1t is a
maxim Of experienced entertainers that
the best entertained company is com.
posed of people who all enter into the
entertainment provided.

the work, were in charge, and every.
thing was handled without a mishap
of any sort. There were &c mum ers
