The house is surrounded by a fine and artistic fence of square pickets Mantling high ami of tasteful and closets galore. The parlor faces to the south and is a large room, superbly finished in what is known as .Mission oak, with a floor of red oak, a room at once tasty and pleas ing to the eye.

The upper floor contains largt roomy -bed rooms, all of them finely finished and handsome with hot air registers everywhere, rooms- fit for the gods. There is also a handsome linen room upon this floor. Then there is the attic, an ideal room for rainy days, large and lofty, which can easily be turned into two handsome rooms when needed. 1 lie cniua closet, which was ne glected above, stands between the dining room and the kitchen opening into both and is a fine piece of work.

The foundation of the structure is of reinforced concrete, several feet thick with a four inch air chamber making it frost proof. The entire basement is used for various pur pose. There is a cellar loaded with the store of winter foods and on one xid-- of the cellar is a large frame case Tor canned fruits. A look inside this case makes one's mouth water for Mrs. Horn has stored it to the brim with bottles and cans of every sort of fruit, seemingly enough to feed a nation. The heating plant is also in the cellar and it consists of a line Campbell hot air furnace so fitted that hot water can also be supplied if necessary. Two large tanks for water stand in another part of the collar, these being kept filled from land cold water and finelv nickeled ! fixtures throughout. ! There is a fine range set along the wall with hot water tank for im mediate use. Then there is a pantry which is simply one of the finest ar rangements of the kind in existence.

It is enough to say that the plan is entirely Mrs. Horn's and it is right in every way. There is a short enframe from the back porch which is so arranged that coats, hats, wraps and overshoes may be left there and none of the muck and slush carried into the interior of the build ing.

The Gass County Sunday School convention held at Weeping Water Monday and Tuesday closed last niglit after a highly interesting and successful session. At the opening of the convention the attendant! numbered about one hundred title- gates, officers and teat hers. Several of the prominent members of the t on vention were from this city including Uev. A. A. Kandall, who delivered a powerful and eloquent disooursi on the saloon question in politics. Hev. J. II. Salsbury, who did ninth active work at the convention and Cliff C. Wescott, whose activities (Hiring and before the convention were very marked, while .Mrs. II. K Wescott of this city had charge of 1- . . ; i .... ine musical program, a niglilv pleas. ing one. s had been outlined in this paper before, the program came off without a tntcii. j here was a very long pro gram of many interesting tilings for the first day, one of the most import ant of which was the several ad dresses upon the practical side of Sunday school management bv C. I). Meigs of Indianapolis, Intl., and Paul S. Deitrick of Lincoln. All of them were excellent and filled with sound practical reasoning and instructive to the many teachers and delegates in attendance. The choice of officers of the asso ciation was as follows: Charles K. N'oyes, president; C. G. Wescott, vict president; Geo. L. Farley, secretary; las.Stander, treasurer; liev. A. A.

Rev. A. A. Randall of this city yes terday delivered an address upon the saloon in politics, in which he bitter ly arraigned the liquor interests for their alleged activities and their ad vocacy of different candidates for of fice. The methods which they use to secure victory in the election also came in for a scoring at his hands and his remedy for the evils which he complained of was the adoption of prohibition. A resolution pledging the members of the convention to county option and ultimate prohibition was unani mously adopted. The resolution is as follows: "We, the members of this conven tion do hereby desire to go on record as emphatically pledged to county option and all other good measures looking toward the hastening of state and national prohibition, and we will always support the men whom we know to be pledged to the same."
