At the Commercial Club Meeting
Although the regular monthly meet
ing of the McCook Commercial club
Tuesday evening was not as largely at
tended as it should have been the
amount of business transacted was a
credit to that organization
Mr Bixler of the MuCnnk nnam
honse reported that work on the re
construction enlargement and overhaul
ing of the skating rink would commence
at once and that they hoped to be able
to open the new opera house by the first
of September
The successful issue of the sewer pet
ition was reported and the matter was
discussed at some length The favor
able action of the city council in pas
sing an ordinance establishing the city
of McCook in one sewer district pro
vidinjr for the construction nf the Int
terals and for the payment of the same
was noted and commenced Thus this
very important matter is placed upon a
businesslike and final footing to be
pushed along to completion as soon as
arrangements and contracts can be
made
But the most important action of the
evening was the favorable consideration
accorded the hospital proposition Rev
J J Loughran was present and pres
ented this matter in detail and at some
length A 16 bed hospital is contem
plated The proposed buildinc is to be
about 40x60 feet basement and two
stories The cost of the building un
furnished and without heating or plumb
ing is placed at about 86500 The heat
ing and plumbing it is thought will take
S1500 The furniture and extras will
likely cost 82000 more making the total
cost about 10000 The vital question
of course is finance but this is not con
sidered as insurmountable The pro
position was fully discussed by several
physicians of the city who were present
besides other members of the club all
to the same purpose there being no
discordant tones in the symphony It
was assumed by all that a hospital

city close of last week closing his sale miug
of
humanity and incidentalv a dfi9irflhIfi
advertising item for McCook With
this common impulse and feeling it was
moved that a committee of nine should
be appointed by the president to have
this matter strictly and exclusively in
charge it being their duty to canvass
the situation and take such action as
they deemed expedient in the line of
providing funds for the construction of
the hospital
This hospital proposition has been
under consideration for several years in
varous forms but this seems to be the
most favorable time and businesslike
action yet taken From every aspect of
the case it merits the favorable consid
eration and liberal action of the Deonle
of McCook and vicinity The Tribune
ardently hopes that naught will inter
fere with the successful progress of this
contemplated enterprise which is more
philanthropic and humanitarian than
commercial and hence will be the
brighter star in our municipal crown

Taken Captive
To say that Strickland W Gillilnn
came saw and conquered does not ex
press it Perhaps it would be better to
say he stormed the citadel and took
us all captive Never has any public
entertainer who hns visited Jackson
been given such universal praise as he
was after his lecture on Tuesday even
ing says a Jackson Ohio newspaper
For almost two hours he held his aud
ience as if by magic first they roared
at his splendid humor then smiled at
ms native awkwardness and then sat
mute under the spell of his fine pathos
His monologues are excruciatingly fun
ny his stories apt and admirably told
his poetry simple and picturesque with
a touch of sublimity that will give it
endurance S W Gillilan is a man
with a message his work will brighten
the dark places of life and hasten the
coming of the millennium
He will entertain you at Menards
opera house next Friday July 20th
