women of Carthage, on Sunday after
noon at the Baptist church, when

afternoon.
While the proceedings OF the
monthly meeting of the city council
Monday evening would indicate that
the meeting was not of vast import
ance, and consumed no time, yet in
deed it was one of the most spirited
meetings held for some time, when

the Central Illinois Public Service
company the. right to construct a
transmission line within the city Of
Carthage. Inasmuch as the city feels
that it has not been properly treated
by the above company, much discus

Mayor Hartzell, to deal with the COM

fident that the city will get square

While Carthage citizens generally
felt little skept1cal as to the out
come of the football game played
Saturday between the Carthage high
team and the Quincy high team on
the Carthage college athletic field,
yet the outcome was very gratifying,
