MANY IMPROVEMENTS
IN THE WRIGHT HOUSE
The Office IS Very Much Enlarged, a
Needed Change, and New
Furniture Is In.

0. w. Wright, landlord of the
Wright house, has practically COM
pleted the alterations and numerous
improvements that have been in pro-
gress at that popular hostelry dur
ing the past four or five weeks, and
it now ranks with the best of them in
cities of this size in the point of
modern equipment and popularity.
A large archway has been made in
the north side of the lobby, which
connects it with what was formerly
the ladies parlor, but will hereafter
serve as a writing room. This has
been newly finished and is furnished
with new mission furniture A lot
of Mission rockers have also been
added in the office-room, which make
it very coy and comfortable.
Many changes have taken place in
the sleeping rooms on the second
floor, where new beds and other
fur niture have been installed, and
conveniences of various kinds added.
The rates. which have been recent
ly increased to $3.50 per day TO
meet present conditions in the high
cost of living, are no higher than
those now being charged in other
hotels of this class t'lroughout the
country and have made it possible to
incur the heavy expense necessitated
in the changes that have been made.

PERMANENT ROADS
IN HAZEL GREEN
a Mile and a-HaIf Were MacadamIz-
edit Leads to Dubuque
and GaIena.

Of all the townships that partici-
pated in the state and county aid
for road work Hazel Green spent the
largest sum. The entire outlay was
So, 435. 40, and at that not a penny
went to filling and grading.
But Hazel Green did lot of sur
facing and macadaming, as may be
reasonably expected. A considerable
sum was expended in 1913 in level
ing however. During 1914 there
were four pieces of road fixed for
permanence and the entire length of
these four strips was one and one
half mile. These pieces were mostly
on grades, although it must be re-
membered the Highway Commissioner
Henry Mink does not believe in steep
grades; so let it be understood that
the Hazel Green grades were not
over seven per cent.
All this work was put in on one
ridge road-the Dubuque and Galena
highway. 1t is the main thorough
fare through the township, and at the
south end you may take your choice
and go either to Dubuque or to
Galena.
Stone for macadam came out of
the lead and zinc mines in Hazel
Green, and the owners gave cheer
fully of the "tailings" of their
mines. To others than the public
these operators sold this by-product
of their operations for 25 cents a
wagon load. That the mine owners
have occasion to use the roads to a
considerable extent may have an in
fiuence on their system of dealing
out "tailings," and it may not have
such an influence.

.FENNIMORE WALLOPS
US At BASKET BALL
Game Was Close Enough, but
Not Very Hot.
Many SleIeh-Ride to the Pleasant
Suburb to Witness Play
Another Game.

Fennimore basket ball players put
it over the Lancaster five, last Fri
day night, 30 to "a, at the gym
nasium in that pleasant suburb.
Among other reasons for the result,
we are told that over confidence was
one.
But just wait! Another game
coming.
Several rigs went over, one of
them pair of bobsleighs with box
half filled with fresh straw, drawn
by sprightly pair of Missouri Song
Birds. This proved to be a popular
vehicle, and it was we'll filled. The
sleighing was fine, and the stories
one hears of speedy return, after
the fall, are worth listening to.
Among those who went over to
witness the game were: Henry Gay,
Andrew Jerrett, the Misses Leonora
Damuth, Kathryn Burr, Jennie Jer-
rett, Marjorie King, Vera Burr,
Catherine Schuster, Rachael Schreiner,
Hilda Fischer, Barbara Barnett, Grace
Stone and Pearl Clanton; Oscar

ing paper had been given him. There
were in the state two journalistic
Jeremiahs daughter and APPLAUSE
one at the capital, one at the metro
polls, for no one city could hold the
two. Their walls of woe that some
horror had come over Wisconsin had
been heard. 'You would think we
were the most abandoned gang of
| free booters. :" But the league was
here to stay and protect the rights of
the people and had nothing to hide,
and all these questions would be
answered. The league wanted and
he believed would get two things
Governor Philip to be the best
governor the state ever had Zap
plause) and eve will help him." and
the other thing was that pledges
honestly and sol emily made to the
people should be kept applause. }
One citizen, the speaker said, had
done more for the farmers and dairy
interest than any other man living.
So it was suggested to have banquet
in Madison in honor of good old ex-
Governor Hoard.
At this point, all rose and applaud
ed.
Speeches of brilliant and stirring
character were made, and all paid
earnest tributes to the absent guest
in whose honor the meeting was held.
Max G. Jeffries, of GAINESVILLE,
handled his subject in a most vigor-
Gus manner, answered set of
published questions propounded by
the Madison. State Journal in
manner very pleasing to the as
semblage, and paid his respects to the
editors of the Madison Journal and
the Milwaukee Journal, for their
hostile attitude toward the league.
Governor Philip spoke last, but
owing to the lateness of the hour his
speech was rather brief. He said
that as he had already, upon former
occasions, discussed the plans of
government he proposed to carry
out, it surely would not now be re-
quired that he review the whole sub
ject. He stood for a conservative,
sane, sensible administration, an
effort to reduce the tax burden and
eliminate every unnecessary agency,
retaining whatever was good. AS
the Legislature was soon to convene
he would, in his message, lay down
the policies desired, and he assured
his hearers that, so far as he was
concerned, those policies would be
followed if it was within the execu-
tive power to compel it, cordial ap-
plause marked the conclusion of the
governors speech and the function
was concluded shortly after midnight.
Those from Lancaster who attended
were W. j. Brennan, Richard Meyer,
J. T. Bennett, Frank Schreiner, NJ.
Y. Burris and B. ]. Lowrey.

Only six persons appeared in the cast,

 Elected Vice-President.

Tho South Nevada County Medical Association held it's regular annual .,oo+;nc at Scott's Hall in Prescott yesterday afternoon from ? to } o. clock and nearly every member was nresent to answer to roll call.
 This organization is yet young but every practicing physician in the coun- tv has become a member. The meet ing yesterday was a very enthuslas- +;c one and the numerous discussions bv members were not only of highly sniovable nature but will be more or less benefit to the profession.
 Those present yesterday were: Drs. Reeder, Hesterly, Chastain, Rice, Buchanan CAD, Buchanan (GilD, and Cox of this city and Drs. Garner Bodcaw: Sutton, Sutton; Mcdaniel, Boughton; Pool, Bluff City; Sandlin, Emmett Tompkins, Gale; Nelms, Lane burg. Only four members were ab- sent. Drs. Mendenhall, Rosston; Bran don.

 Late in the afternoon Senator Bush was asked to take the chair, and for fifteen minutes he wa gi7ef taste of how near Bedlam a crowd of un- ruly Senators can make life appear Practically every man in the Senate was in the isles yelling at the top of his voice for recognition, and when one was recognized the others refus- ed to permit the reading clerk to pro- ceed with his work. Finally Presi- dent Lundy returned to the chair and soon ended the chaos.
 Senator Lunday scared up a fight when he took the floor and endeavored to have the Nixon bill regulating Chi ropractics, which had passed in the morning session, reconsidered. He asked that the motion be made a spe- cial order for Friday afternoon, and it resulted in lengthy parliamentary debate, as to the propriety of such a motion, ending in Senator Futrell mak- ing a motion to reconsider the vote by which the bill passed and to lay that motion on the table. This was what Senator Lunday was evidently driving for, for he instantly accepted, and withdrew his motion, the Futrell mo- tion being adopted.
 The Senate read most of the House bills reported there, making many of them special orders, and as the cal endar was nearly clean, decided not to have a night session, as had previous l ly been ordered The Robertson bill to repeal sections of the Child labor act was made special order for Fri day afternoon. The Reigler bill for the turning over of the Old State House and other state property to the Arkansas Medical Society for the cree tion of a David O. Dodd hospital to ! be operated by the State, was also made special order for Friday after noon, after being read twice.
 The amedments placed on the Flu trail game bill in the House were con cured in and the roll called upon the bill. As soon as signed by the Cover nor 1t now becomes a law.
 The Senate concurred in the House amendments to the Calvert Fort Smith-Van Buren free bridge district bill, fixing the date for the election 1 of the directors of the district.
 The Senate then adjourned in order 1 that many members might appear be- fore the lobby investigation commit 1 tee. having been summoned during the day.

and that the principal hospitals are operated by this church while the ma pority of patients are protestants. and none had ever complained of the treat ment received there, while all had lpraised it.
 During the closing argument Sena- tor Calvert asked Senator Going what would be the penalty if he was ap- pointed by the court to make all in spection under the bill and he declined to go, and was informed that he would be imprisoned for contempt. Senator Going closed with the statement that the Catholics had nothing to conceal and did not now object to inspections of their places, in which they are just l ly proud, but that to force such bill upon them was reflection upon the Catholic manhood and womanhood of the State.
 Senator Bush, by consent, was per mitted to close the debate although the opposition to the bill had waived it's rights to speak upon it, and de- clared that if one hundredth part of the reports in circulation concern ing Catholic institutions are true. that the bill should pass, and if they are
 ct, that it should pass just the same. He declared that he would endcavor to have the law repealed in the next session of the General Assembly, if 1t IS found to be working a hardship, and the reports made are found .o be untrue.
 When the roll call was taken Sena- tor Greenhouse, explained his vote, as a protestant, against the bill, by eX- pressing the belief that there wee no institutions in his district that need inspection, and he would vote fer the bill in order that these institutions might have the opportunity to prove the islanders uttered against them to be untrue. The large Catholic settle ment of Tontitown is in the district represented by Senator Greenhouse and within few miles of his home. in Washington County.
 The vote on the bill was as follows: IAye-Ashley, Bush, Cabaniss.- Col lins, Davenport, Duty, Edmondson Ferguson, Garrett, Greenhouse, Ken. Idall, Overman. Owens, Sims, Slaugh- ter, Smith, Smith, Toler, Wagner Wasson, White, and Mir. President I22.
