The present council goes out next month and a new one takes office, the election being held the first Tuesday in April. Several of the present councilmen will probably run again and others have signafied their intentions of staying out, and to who will and will not it is impossible to say as yet. But if You haven't registered you had better attend to 1t at once the books are open at Chas. Fol lensbee's Barber Shop. Ladies don't forget to call around and reg- ister, remember you have a say in the affairs of the city so if you want to vote register now.

Wins Every
 Game of Season

The WSangell Basket Ball Team played their last game ot the seas- on last Saturday night and, as is customary with the team, won over their opponents, the Petersburg team, to the score of 5I to s.
 The Visiting team arrived over from Petersburg about two-thirty Saturday afternoon, three boat loads coming, bringing the band with them, which played some ex- cellent music as the boats came into port. The game was played at the Rink to a very full house.
 Along with the Petersburg team came the ladies team of that city and they played a game with the Wrangell ladies before the boys game. The ladies game turned put to be the feature of the even- ing, both teams doing some fast playing although they fell short on the basket shooting and the game turned out tie to score of four to four, although 1t looked for a while as though the Wrangell ladies were going to loose, but they came up strong at the finish and evened the score: After a discussion be- tween the ladies of the two teams they decided to let the score stand and play it off at some future date.
 Alter the games the big hall was cleared and everyone enjoyed themselves with dancing and show ing the visitors a good time. The basket ball teams served lunch in the hall at midnight, and every thing turned out to make 1t a Very enjoyable evening. Manager Pur- inton of the Rink expressed the thanks of the Wrangell people to the visitors for their good attend ance and invited them to many more to come. MT. Robert Olsen replied for the visitors; stating that they had very plesant trip and would look forward to many more.
 This is probably the last game of the seaso for the local team as 1t seems impossible to Set a game with either the Douglas or Juneau teams and the boys are quitting with petcehtage of 1000 having won every game they have played, and would have won as mary more if it had been possible to play them. Wrangell certainly has the team and the boys are quitting with all the glory obtainable.

Deafness Cannot be Cured

by legal applications. as they cannot
reach the diseased portion of the ear
There is only one way to cure deaf

inflamed condition of the mucous
lining of the Eustachian Tube.
When this tube is Unnamed you have
a rumbling sound or imperfect hear
ing, and when IL is entirely closed,
Deafness is the result, and unless the
inflammation can be taken out and this
tube restored TO its normal condition,
hearing will be destroyed forever;
nine cases out of ten are caused by
catarrh, which is nothing but an in
famed condition of the mucous
surfaces.

LIVE STOCK CONFERENCE


In northwest Kansas there is much
interest in live stock, in spite of the
very large whear crop of this year
The real live stock men already in
the section are sticking to the bust
ness and others who have been ex-
elusive wheat Taisers are becoming
more interested in live stock. To
further emphasize the possibility of
live stock production in this section,
to show how profitable it can be made,
and to discuss methods by which
this can be done, Live Stock Con-
ference has been scheduled for North
west Kansas to be held al Norton
the 18th and 18th of March. Both
farmers and townspeople or North
west Kansas and Mr.. III. T. Nielsen,
district agricultural agent located at
Norton, are cooperating with the
Kansas State Agricultural College in
planning for the conference and in
making it one of the best agricultur-
al meetings ever held in the above
section. Prominent live stock men
of Northwest Kansas will preside at
each meeting and will give snort ad-
dresses.
Some of the speakers for the con-
yention are Dean w. NJ. Jardine, of
the Agricultural College; ii. T. Mel
sen, District Agricultural Agent for
Northwest Kansas; Professor o. E.
Reed, W. A. Cochel, DIR. G. W. Nc
Campbell, and Superintendent E. G.
johnson, of the Agricultural College.
Other speakers of prominence will ap-
pear on the program. 1t is expected
that live stock men and other farm
ers will attend this convention from
as far east as Jewell, Mitchell, Lin
coin, and Ellsworth counties and to
the western border of the
state, as Norton is easily reached by
all the railroad lines in the section.
Many who have automobiles are ex-
pected TO make up parties and at
tend the convention from neighbor-
ing counties.
