COMMUNICATION.

Mr. Kill tor.
Having waited upon the ivmalmler
of tho business men that I was un
able to see on my lust visit to your
city 1 tl in 1 a desire for a public incot
liiK on the question of early closing.
't he matter of the unto oi sain moot
hnr iH'Imr left to ni.v discretion I here
by appoint Tuesilay, May 111. at the
Masonic Hall at II p. in. as tho time
and place when It Is toliohoH'd that
a full, frank and friendly dIcusslon
will no inilulireit in ivHiimnir in a
united action. Should It be Impos
sible for any of the butliiess men to
be present It Is earnestly ileslivil that
they have some one to represent and
act for them. Would It not tie wise
If tho customers of tho respective
business houses make their purchasu
before 7 p. m. thus showing that the
movement has their full sympathy.
Very Nlneerly
John Dawson.
BAND ENTERTAINMENT
The drama "Hronklnir Ills ltonds"
given by tho C. M. A. band nt the
opera noiiso on rriuny iiignt, amy i,
was well attondei and highly minru-
clated by all present In fact was a
wonderful surprise. Tho plav was
entirely by homo talent mid was ro
hoarscil and uctcd without any out
side assistance, mid It can bo truth-
fully salil tnat tdttage uroveis sel
dom vkdted by traveling companies
that equal In rcpurtolre or rendition.
Tho octorsall thoroughly understood
their parts both Inspirit mid letter
and when the curtain arose and they
appeared on the stage It was wltli
that easy grace displayed generally,
by ld actors. It would bo unwise
mid unjust to mention separately by
way of eulogy any Individual player
for they all played their parts with
exactness and ease and without the
least tlaw that would bo criticised
by old theatre goers. The fact that
our homo talent has displayed their
ability so greatly In this ns In other
efforts, lends much force to tho ar
gument that with a new hall mid a
homo company Cottngo drove might
be well entertained of tent lines during
the winter season and without the
money leaving tho town.

Lust Friday afternoon while the
schoolchildren wore enjoying a pic
nic east of town on tuo banks of How
river, some of tho boys discovered
the body of a nmn lodged against a
log In the stream, rpon Investiga
tion It proved to bo "Indian Sam"
Spores, who undoubtedly, under tho
Intliienco of liquor attempted to ford
the stream In going to his camp on
tho Nelson placo where ho and his
stepson Knoch were cutting wood.
Saturday morning tho body wns re-
moveii irom me water, brought to
this city and given a decent burial,
mourned, not by Anthony, but by
his faithful friend mid stepson Enoch.
Sam was hut mvii by Knoch on Mon
day, and that night met Ids tragic
death. Knoch, n young Indian, born
nud raised hi this vicinity Is said to
he the last living Cnhipoola Iintlan.
Some of the old pioneers here re
member the tribe when It numbered
something like 200. They were of a
peaceable nature, and gave the
whites very little trouble, mid there
fore were kindly thought of. Mary,
the mother of Knoch, died less than
two years ago. Sam wns a harm
less fellow, his own worst enemy.
Knoch, for a time went to school
here, mid Is said to have lietMi quick
at his studies. He was active, strong
and a good athlete; but later on,
owing to his closo association with
Sum, lie got In the way of drink, nud
now at the ago of 'Si lie Is a sloven,
blear-eyed wreck, the last of Ids race,
and barring the kindly feeling that
many here have for him, friendless
and mi outcast. The loor boy's
heart was well nigh broken when he
followed Sam to his grave, and In
deed, ho Is entitled to the pity of
those who know him. Pity fs a
sweet gift and none of us arc so poor
that we need refuse to glvo It.
