An Interesting question has been raised
regarding the: rights of a railroad company
In the moving of a town and changing Its
name', in a controversy lrt Montgomery
county. When the Burlington railroad was
- located -it waa given a turn ao aa to go
through the pioneer town of Hawthorne,
but the town has never grown. Last year
the company straightened its line and left
Hawthorne .out .in. th country. . A new
H - tawn waa platted recently about a mile
and a half from Hawthorne and th com.
pany has opened a station called Hebard,
after the first surveyor of the line. . The
- reason- for not calling the atatlon Haw
thorn Is that there Is another Hawthorne
on Ihe 'Burlington system, over in Illinois.
, "Tk-: residents' of Hawthorn are invited
to move over to Hebard and a movement
haar' keen " started to have tha postoffice
name changed trf ' Hebard, but some of
'"the old-timers object. They say they do
.not so much mind moving their town, but
.".'' ..they do not want to give up such a pretty
' ame- for their town. "An 'effort is to be.
made o, have the town of Hawthorne
moved over bodily, to Hebard and the old

With over 11,000 paid admissions.' and no
count kept of the children, who were ad
mitted free. It is estimated that 16,000 per
sons, young and old, passed the carnival
gates yesterday.
In the afternoon all children under li
years of age, and it was surprising how,
young the children of Council Bluffs can
be on such an occasion, were admlttetl
free, and the-ohildrea - of tha Christian
Home and the Associated Charities' crech
were special guests of the management.
The 'grounds were literally! covered with'
the young folk and It undoubtedly was a
Ved letter day in many of their young
lives. At all of the attractions reduced
rates" were ' made for the little folks and
as a result of this concession all of the
shows were liberally patronised by those
youngsters who had a few nickels or dimes
to spend. To the child not thus provided
the free shows and other outside attrac
tions sufficed.
There was a large attendance of Knglea
at night and-they helped to keep things
moving, especially the confetti, barrels of
which, designated by the -spielers as "orien
tal face powdor," found a ready and steady
market..
Tonight, which will mark the close of the
