At The AmuSe.U.

The attractive and comfortable lit tie theater with the unique and ap- propriate name "Amuse-U" is daily the mecca for hundreds of those who seek quiet hours entertainment watching the various motion picture plays thrown upon the screen. Yes terday the little theater played to capacity audiences, many being turn ed away at the afternoon and night shows. And such has been the rule for the past month.
 Though the doors were first open ed hardly two months ago the play house has a clientele that is highly desirable and any afternoon those who enjoy the serene amusement of- fered by the pictures may be seen entering the theater. It is rapidly becoming the favorite place for the children, too, and many are present at every performance.
 Only the best class of pictures that have passed the national board Of censors are shown. Not a few of them are what are termed "six and ten day releases" or have not been shown but that number of times and never in a city as small as Pine Bluff, They are secured by special arrange ment by the management, which IS desirous of giving their patrons the newest products of the film compaI, ies.
 Care is taken in selecting the films that none will be shown that would tend to have the slightest ill effect upon the patrons. especially the little folks, and the clearness with which

At the Orpheo.

Pine Bluffians, especially the mu- sic lovers, will have an opportunity the first three days of this week to hear one of the best and most justly famous musical organizations in the United States, the Cora Youngblood corson seNtette. These six feminine soloists have played before some of the most critical audiences in the country and nothing but praise has been heard of them. They play so- los, duets, trios, quartettes and sex tettes and one of their best offerings is the famous seNtette from "Lucia. !" Miss Corson is of course, the chief soloist. The other members of the sextette are Misses Eula Youngblood, Ethel Wright and Ida Mundell, cor netists; Georgia Acton and Lois Lord trombones.
 Katherin Selser will present skit entitled "The New Woman" She burlesques the suffragette idea that is at it's height in the feminine mind and press notices say she is exceptionally clever.

235 acres situated in section 8. This
land all lies in Corwin township and
the east half of section 16 is known
as the old Smith & Weston stock
ranch and is unquestionably one Of the
best equipped farms for stock feed
ing and raising in northwestern Iowa
The widow is daughter of VIM
Leathers of Mapleton and in her girl
hood days was a resident OF Ida
Grove, and for some time prior to the
death of her husband they had been
residents of Ida Grove.
"The administrators of the estate
are now in a position where they can
sell his lands and they are offering
for sale some 1915 acres. We under.
stand they offer for sale the follow
ing tracts:
4S0 acre farm near Aurelia, Iowa.
East half of section IS, COrwin
township, part OF the Smith ranch.
235 acres adjoining the east halt
of section 16 on the north.
The second item named, the east
half of section 16, is that portion OF
the Smith ranch just west of town.
upon which all OF the ranch build
ings and improvements are located
The third item is the 235 acres OF
pasture just north of this half. We
understand these two pieces will be
sold together or separately.
"The sale is in the hands of w.
H. feathers, Ida Grove, and George
Smith, Union Stock Yards, Chicago
and prices and terms are to be Sc
cured from them"

received their preparation in the day
school on that circuit.
This coming autumn We expect to
garner from our Hal tang day schools
harvest of twenty-four girls who
have finished three and one-half years
of work and will enter the boarding
school, which will take them through
the grammar grade. How we thank
God for them! They will be our fu-
ture day school teachers and pastors
wives and bible women. This year
twelve beautiful girls graduated from
our boarding school. l wish you could
have seen them-so womanly, so self
possessed! Two of them have mar
ried two of our most promising young
ministers, to whom they will be
worthy helpmeets. Four others are
marrying christian laymen and will
set up christian homes. One, unfor-
tunately betrothed by her parents into
heather family is already suffering
persecution for her faith, but we feel
confident that she will not waver. All
of the twelve, with the possible ex-
ception of this one, will teach day
schools, even the married ones teach
ing in their home villages. All but
one of these girls were gathered in
from the day schools. Isn't the day
school work worth while? Are you
not glad that you can have a part in
it? We are trying to work our day
school up to high standard OF eflic-
iency and excellence. We expect that
the Chinese government will soon be
planning it's public school system. We
believe that we are going to be en-,
abled to make our day schools SO
thorough going and honest in their
work that when the day comes the
government will feel that its wisest
course is, to utilize us by cooperating
| with us and then would not angels
covet the opportunity that shall be
ours of moulding for Christ the entire
childhood OF Hal tang.
Yours in happy service,

telling of the settlement of the estate,

and Robert Upton, appraisers appoint

open, he came to Ida Grove Saturday
afternoon and the final partition of
the land in Ida county so far as the
widows share was concerned, was
made by the court.
The widow had filed an election
to take her distributive share under
the law of Iowa instead of participant
ing according to the will which gave
her 100000. In her election, howev-

dover interest in the Ida county land
and as there were also extensive real
estate holdings in Monona and Chero-
kee counties, she was given $1,000 in
lieu of her interests in those counties.

LOSS IN CARROLL
Early Thursday Morning Fire Totally
Destroyed Masonic Temple Build
ing and Entire Contents.
sTRoHM G. co. HEAVY LOSERS
Various Doctors and Lawyers Lose
Libraries-One of Finest Ma
sonic Temples in State.

Last Thursday morning our neigh
boring city of Carroll experienced the
worst fire in the history of their city,
when the Masonic temple building
with the contents before the flames
could be eXtinguished. Early Thurs
day morning the news reached Deni-
son that this prominent business block
in Carroll was on fire, but before noon
Carroll could not be reached by tele-
phone as the telephone exchange was
located in the block that was de-
stroyed.
The fire originated in the basement
of the building and was discovered by
Miss Agnes Morgan, night operator in
the telephone office, who quickly
phoned for help, being unable to leave
the toll lines which she had charge
of. The fire had gained such Roadway
that it was beyond control by the
time the fire department arrived on
the scene and they at once started
about combining the blaze to that one
building and protecting nearby prop
erty.
At one time the danger of general
confiagration, which would take the
principle part of the business section,
was so great that the merchants be-
gan to arrange things with view to
moving out their stocks and many of
them actually began moving opera
lions. A call to Ft. Dodge and Man
ming brought the departments by spe
cial trains, but the fire was under con-
troll before assistance arrived from
outside.
The Masonic temple was by far the
most substantial building in the city
and was occupied by several mer-
chants, together with doctors and law
yers, who lost everything they had in
the building.
The losses sustained are approx
ludlely DIS lOllOWS.
Masonic temple association, three
story building and basement, valued
at $4,000; insurance, $4,000.
J. A. Strohm & company, merchan-
disc, stock valued at $4,000; insur-
ance, $4,000.
Masonic order, loss on furniture and
paraphernalia, over and above insur-
ance about $500.
Citizens club, furniture valued at
81, 900; insurance, $500.
Telephone exchange, between $10,-
900 and $4,000, total loss.
Drs. H. r. Pascoe, Bert Drees and
B. H. Rice, combined loss probably 3d.
500.
City engineer, instruments and rec
ords, total loss.
Owens Bros, implements, water
damage, $1,000.
Manatt & Delaplane, furniture, wa
ter damage, $1,000.
The origin of the fire is unknown,
but is thought to have been of spOn-
taneous combustion.
