The dining room was decorated with holly aud cycrgrecn and lighted with numerous candles. F. D.

The pieces fol lowed in rapid succession and were some of the very best of musical selections and were highly appre ciatcd by the crowd.

The asBOciatim closed the year out of debt, with $24 (7 in the treasury and the membership the largest in its history, 375. We feel grateful to the hundreds ot friends for the help during the year, and if it is as well supported during the future as in the past, this associa tion will outgrow its present quar ters and its influence lor good upon North Platte's young men will be ween in a greater measure thancver before. God grant that it may be so Men! You will be welcome at the bible study tonight in the parlor at eight o'clock. Young men should make the sec retary hustle lor chairs next Sun day by coming in crowds to hear that very helpful address by Mr. A. V. Parsons st 3:30 p, m. All men invited. Undoubtedly Dr." McCabe will lecture to a large number of men next Mfiuday evening. He will take the men clear through 'Alton's Heart." At the opera house Tuesdav evening, Jan. 7th, Mr. Carl A. Hat win's latest melodramatic success will be the attraction. The play has met with instantaneous ap proval in the cities where it has been presented, and bids fair to re new the popularity of its visit. It is ou the romantic order and appeals through its literary merits to those who prefer a well told story in preference to a flimsy atlair written around tanks, saw nulls, fire engines, etc. All the scenery used in the production is carried by the company ai:d an ex cellcnt entertainment is promised.
