The attention of the city dads has on several occasions lceu called to the insecure condition of both the houses of detention for wrong doers. The calaboos on River street has been broken open several times and criminals have gone free and jumped the town because the building was not strong enough to Tctaiu them. On Sunday night this act was again repeated. The marshal arrested a tough character who got off the night train, locked him up to appear before the Re corder in the roorriiug, and when morning came the bird had flown and a big hole in the rear of the jail showed where he had kicked the boards off and taken wing, The cooler is all Tight for drunks but it will not hold live criiniiinls, and should be made strong enougl to hold even n "bad" man. Our city fathers should remember that "an ounce of prevention is worth a pound of cure," and do something -1 c ,.t :i - .... 111 wie way 01 imiKiii wic juhs sc cure. A Busy Music Box. Brchaut & Morton of the New Era drug store have recently bought a large music box and with it fifty odd tunes and songs, .Each of their many mends linve some expressed preference for a certain number, and as they are quite often happening around and asking to hear their favorite, it keeps the music box grinding from early dawn till late at night. "Music hath charms to soothe the savage, etc., and if reports be true there are several people in that neighbor hood that are mighty near savage now and are making threats to im port an Italian hand organ as a counter attraction. Flu it Alaum Saturday An alarm was rung in last Satur day forenoon for a supposed fire iu the Cottage Grove Hotel. A large volume of smoke was issuing from the apex of the rdof near the chim ney. The fire department was soon on the spot, but it was practically useless as there was not sufficient water in the pipes to reach the awning of the porch. One quick witted fireman soon evolved a scheme for saving the building. He lit a caudle, climbed into the attic from an inside trap, sought out the defective flue and salted it, and presto, the fire was out. The whole town was out too. Always Welcomb. The smiling countenance of "Bob" Mabry, the bustling adver tising agent for Chamberlain's Medicine Co, of Des Moines, Iowa, whose goods, so thoroughly known ond appreciated, are constantly on baud at the Benson Drug Co. headquarters In this city, blew in on his annual visit this week. "Bob" is always welcome, for he is a straight-up business man, and takes pride in representing one of the best firms now business in the west, MEMORIAL HliRYlGliti.

The many pickers who went out into the field from here are returning singly and iu groups with the fruits of their toil, and will be able to provide for themselves many comforts for the coming winter.
