new ELEVATOR
ON {. ( n. ".
Farmers Elevator Company Hold a
Meeting and Decide to Build
Near Northwestern Tracks
READY FOR GRAIN THIS FALL
Enough Money Has Already Been
Subscribed and Building Will
Soon be Under Way,

At meeting of the stockholders OF
the Farmers Elevator company, held
Saturday afternoon at the court house,
it was decided to go ahead with the
project and erect modern elevator.
Both the Illinois Central and the
Northwestern railways offered the
new company plot Of ground on their
right OF way on which to erect the
elevator and the matter OF selecting a
site took up considerable time at the
Saturday afternoon meeting.
1t was decided to build the elevator
on the ground offered by the North
western Railway company. The di-
rcctors of the new company will go
ahead with the proposition and ascer-
tain just what kind of an elevator will
meet the present requirements and
the probable cost. Those backing
the proposition are in hopes that the
elevator can be erected and ready for
use by the time the grain is ready to
bring in from the country.
Farmers elevators have proved to
be successful in other places in the
state, and there should be no reason
why the Denison elevator should not
pay good interest on the money in
vested if under the right kind of man
agement Enough money has already
been pledged to start the undertake
ing and without a doubt there will be
more in sight as soon as the building
is under way.

Alfonso and the Colonel.

In more than one sense, the Spanish
war may now be declared ended. For
the wedding festivities at Madrid re-
veal the king Of Spain and his court
extending all possible courtesics to
the colonel OF the rough riders. The
king was still in his teens when the
war was fought his mother being
queen regent; and it was the mothers
intense desire to preserve for her son
undiminished the Spanish colonial
empire that, on the Spanish side, made
the war with the United States one
of those events in history which many
people call inevitable. The king
cordially to the Roosevelt party does
not necessarily reflect popular feeling
in Spain, but it is said by good OBJ
servers that much less bitterness to-
ward the United States remains than
could have been eXpectcd.-SprinS-

Electric Life Buoy.

An electrically lighted life buoy has
been brought out by an English firm
for use in places where workers are
exposed to the risk of drowning. as in
docks and on ship board. 1t carries
two nine candle-power electric lamps
above the water and two below the
surface, and in clear weather the light
from these is visible to a considerable
distance. The two primary batteries
feeding the lamps are sealed until the
buoy is lifted from its rack. This &C
ton automatically lights the lamps,
and they continue Illuminated for
three or four hours. The weight of
the buoy is but 25 pounds. In the
tests made, q man of average weight
was carried by the buoy while lying
across, and three men kept their
heads up by its means when their
bodies were submerged.
