Arthur Johnson and Ralph Jenne went to St. .loo yesterday. Mrs. Will Cunningham and duughter Alice wore down from Itulo this morning. Mr. Berger and daughter from Reserve are doing trading in town today. Mr. and Mrs. Sig Fuller are down /rom Verdou, trading to day.

('handler of Hiawatha was in town on business yester day. Judging from the music emu nating from Goddard’s Music Store of a morning we should say (lint, some of our baseball boys are pretty good musicians. There has been some talk of having hand concerts here this summer, lmt so far nothing lias materialized. In our opinion a few dollars invested in band mu sic either in the way of a con cert at the park or merely with a band stand on tlie street would do more toward bringing the out aiders into our city than almost anything wo could do at this time. Win. Prater of Fargo was in town today, being a witness he fore the insanity board. Ex-sheriff Fred Kolirs of An burn was in the city today on business. Worthy people blunder into so many tilings; including jail and matrimony. Airs. Henry Majerus and Miss Ruth Kaualy wore in from Rulo shopping this afternoon. W. C. Fixler was called to Hi awatha this morning by the sad news that bis mother luid just died. She was troubled with heart trouble and was found dead in bed this morning. Airs. Fixler was quite advanced iu years. No arrangements for the funeral have been made so far. Airs. Eliza Thompson of Fargo was taken before the Insanity hoard today, on a warrant charg ing her with being insane. After due consideration of the evidence, and examination of the accused, (lie board decided that she was in her right mind, and was dis charged from custody. En Route to Kansas City on Tour of Inspection. President Bush of the Missouri Pacific, together with a number of the road’s officials, arrived in Falls City at 12:40 this noon in four special ears. They stopped here but 20 minutes, and then proceeded on tlieir way to At chison, St. Joe and Kansas City. t Among 1 lie railroad officials who accompanied Air. Bush were ■1. W, Higgins, A. De Bernnrbi, (!. W. Smith and W. J. AIcKcc. Quite a number of our citizens and city officials were on hand to greet the railroad president, and it was hoped he would make a speech telling all about what the road was going to do for Falls City and what a fine depot ilicy would soon erect, but as Hie time was short, Alp. Bush contented himself with attend ing to the business that brought him here, and then proceeded on his way. WOMAN'S CLUB MEETING. Tin* Woman's club met at the home of Mrs. W. II.
