CAPTAIN ROGERS IN NEW ROLE

On Sunday last frame building was sledded from Black street by Alderman Paul Laplant and deposited on the vacant lot at the corner of First and Willow streets. Such an unusual proceeding occasloned quite little questioning among our cltl- zens. The buildings of this great city are usually removed piecemeal and shipped to Flat creek, or maybe Marshall, or some other booming community, and the strange spectacle of "toting" a structure tout en- semble or pluribus unum (excuse our ItaIan) made even the oldest inhabitant sit up and take notice. The cause was soon noised around, however, and all anN- ieties were alayed when it became known that Captain Jesse H. Rogers was backing tbe enterprise, and in a short time he will open up flyer in the way Of baked bean emporium.

dial and affectionate cOngratula-
tions and good wishes. The match
is one of the happiest imagin-
able. Miss HOltsman, who is a
graduate Of Bradley and during
: her residence in Peoria was a
prominent and popular member
of the Omicron sorority, is not
I only pretty and attractive but OF
= so sweet and loyal a nature as
D to be universally beloved. Mr..

r years, has caused his many Peo-
4 ria friends the greatest happl-
| ness by returning to his native
S1 city to engage in business with
I an enterprise and initiative which
a are sure to win him success il
$ life. The date of the wedding
