wants this chart for the purpose of
ascertaining the prospects for es
tablishing a German colony at some
point in the district As the work
of making the chart of map would
entail a month's labor, the land
officers will not issue the same
until the consul agrees to put up
the amount necessary for hiring i
clerk to perform the work.

hold its first graduating exercises

4 'Toward the Light;" Mary O'Hare,

Frazier, 4,A Mother's Love;" Nellie
Austin, "The Dawn of Day;" Mar
garet Kelly, 4 'Science Points to
God." It is said the members of
the class have given much thought
and time to the preparation of their
respective essays and the result
will prove both -instructive-and in
teresting toQthe audience. Admis
sioniof 35 cents for adults and
twenty-five cents for children will
be charged. Seats will be reserved
at Clinton's without extra charge.

lhe Maccabee entertainment
at Keith's hall on Tuesday evening
was attended by an audience num
bering fully 300, composed princi
pally, if not entirely, of the mem
bers of the lodge and their families,
The event was given in celebration
or tne fourteenth anniversary of
this excellent and rapidly growing
organization. E. B. Warner acted
as master of ceremonies, and as is
always the case, well performed the
duties incumbent upon him. The
programme rendered was an ex-
ceiient one, oemg as follows: Son"-
by C. F. Scharmann, address on
theK. O. T. M. by H. D. Rhea,
paper on the L. O. T. M. by Mrs.
Chas. Wood, a reading by Mrs.
Minnie Harvey, and a song by a
quartette composed of Miss White,
Mrs. Warner and Messrs. Redmond
and Warner. At the completion of
this programme the people sur
rounded the tables and partook of
icecream and cake. That this lat
ter event was appreciated may be
mierrea trom the fact that thirty
gallons of ice cream and a wagon
load of cake were consumed. These
refreshments were . contributed
jointly hy the K. O. T. M. and the
L. O. T. M.. the laffpr TMticr nlirmf
as closely identified with the enter
tainment as the former. The occa
sion proved a pleasant one through
out and will not soon be forgotten
by attendants. Few secret societies
have proven more popular and
worthy than the two divisions of
the Maccabees, and this is fully
attested by the wonderful growth.

The State Journal ot Wednes
day contained the following: "It
is reported that irrigators of Lin
coln:" county are objecting to the
new irrigation law on the ground
that they may lose some vested
rights. No complaint has reached
the state board and it is understood
that those who own ditches are
putting in all their time working
instead of complaining. J. S.

yesterday, but he had no complaint
to offer.
