Norton's CAPITAL STOCK, S50.000.22 SURPLUS, $50,000O 'W Mica Mill Proposed Tuesday evening a special called meeting of the Commer cial Club was held at Secretary Ridgell's office to consider the proposition offered by L. M. McBride, W. B. Thomas and R. E. McBride, who compose the Electric Mica Company, o f Custer, S. D. They fully ex plained everything and everyone present took great interest. Wednesday evening another meeting was called and some very fine samples of Mica from the Compiiny's mines were on exhibition. Their proposition is as follows: They offer one-third of their capital stock of $100,000 to the people of Alliance for 15,000. Of this sum $7,500 will be used to erect and equip a mill here; $3,000 will be used to put in mining machinery at Custer, and the balance will be used for the production of raw material and for labor and power charges in Alliance. The Company now has five year contracts with 15 mica producers at Custer giving I them a supply of 235 tons per 1 month at $11 per ton. Their estimate on the profit of cutting and milling 200 tons of mica per month is $7,700. 75 people would be employed at the mill and a pay roll of $72, 000 to $100,000 per year dis bursed here. The mill would be expected to reach its full capaci ty in eight months. A committee consisting of W. W. Wood, I. E. Tash, and R. E. Knight was chosen to investi gate more fully. They meet at four o'clock this afternoon. If their report is satisfactory as it looks like it will be, no trouble will be experienced in raising the money. It is a pleasure to observe the interest which the business men of Alliance give to any meritorious enterprise which would mean a greater Alliance. Notice.

Musicale a Success' The musicale held at the Methodist church Monday evening for the purpose of raising money to help pay tor the new League piano was a decided success.

V..Crowe of Alliance, Miss Eunice Eldred and Miss Swan of Alliance, Herbert Nelson Ralph Thomas, Lloyd Smith, Cecil Smith, Harry Troup, and Arthur Thomas, all of Alli ance. , All did their best and every (election was enc6red again and again, Mtfoic ed it is to be Riven Mrs. S K. Warrftk" am the members of the Epworth League who, gave their time and work to help make the musicale a success. A total of (44.00 was raised. Several more entertainments are to be given by the League during the winter. The success of this one makes the coming ones to be much desired. Married Miss Hazel Heck, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. J. G. Beck of Alliance, and Arthur IJ. Conner, son of Mr. and Mrs, A, F. Conner of Colorado Springs, were quietly married Satuiday. The mar riage came somewhut as a surprise to the many friends of the happy young people. Miss Hazel Heck is one of the most popular young Alliance ladies, having grown to womanhood in this city. She is a graduate of the Alliance High School and the Lincoln Business Col lege. She has been employed by the V. V Norton store as stenogragher and cashier for some time past. Mr. Coiifiors tiH a wide acquaintance here and is employed by the Phillips Grocery Company. The Herald joins in wishing them a long and happy married life. Heart Party Life, with all its stern realities, occa sionally breaks out in a halo of light and joy so resplendent the clouds vanish far in the distance and we dwell in the realms of ecstacy for a lime. Perhaps the pleas ant event at the home of W. S. Acheson Tuesday afternoon in honor of Miss Ruth Aspedwall might have been a counterpart of this. Miss Nelle Acheson was the hostess of the afternoon and in her usual charming manner made the guests feel perfectly at home. The spacious dining room was very tastily decorated with hearts and cupids. Miss Nellie O'Donnell won first prize at hearts, which was a beautiful hand-painted plate. Miss Virginia Broome won the consolation prize; both of which were pre sented to Miss Aspenwall as a momento of the occasion, A delicious three-course luncheon was served, after which the party was enter tained by instrumental selections by the guests.
