The new Improved Columbia Kecords
are of elegant workmanship and are
a decided advancement in the art of
record making. They have a full,
sweet tone, and owing to the manner
in which they are made they have a
less scratching tone; the needle seems
to run smoother on the record. We
also wish to introduce to your notice
the new Grand Opera Sound Box,
which is designed to obviate the
scratch of the needle and at the same
time retain the full volume of tone.
We will exchange the new Grand

SUM OF $5,000 IS VOTED
Spencer Memorial Charon, Remembered
by Kx tension Committee.
Rev. J. B. Rutter has. just returned
from Kansas City, where the church
extension committee of the .Metho
dist church is in session and reports
that the committee voted a provision
al $5,000 to the Spencer Memorial
church of this city, which was dedi
cated two. weeks ago. This is even
better than .Rev. Rutter- hud hoped
for, as he was asking for but $4,000.
The- money will become available as
rapidly as it is raised in this confer
ence.
SPORTING
The work of reorganizing the
Western league has already com
menced and President Sexton is
at work getting the reorgani
zation plans under way for next
year. The work of canvassing for
funds for the new club in Lincoln,
Neb., has commenced, from which it
is to be inferred that they are going
to get- after the mutter as soon as
possible. What will be the effect u-
n the other towns in .the: circuit Is
not at this time -known. The proba
ble settlement of the . question will
doubtless be that Peoria and .Milwau
kee will be let out of the circuit and
Lincoln and Sioux Citv, or some other
town centrally located in the west
will be added.

Manager Rourke. of the Omaha
Western league baseball club, has ex
perienced a complete change of heart
toward President Sexton, according
to a letter. to Sporting Life, which de
clares he returned from the recent
National association meeting at St.
Louis satisfied that a deal has been
made with the American association,
and that Sioux City a,nd .Pueblo-will
probably take the places of Milwau
kee and Kansas City in the Western
league circuit. Manager Kourke went
down to St. Louis with the. avowed
intention of cutting off the scalp of
President Sexton. He had given out
interview after interview, in which he
told of the awftd things he was. going
to do to Mr. Sexton. Rut Mr. Rourke
has returned home from the fa. Louis
pow-wow with all sorts of good things
to say of the president.
"President Sexton is the smartest
baseball leader in the country," said
he. "And I was greatly surprised to
find. that the Western came, out at
the end of last .season not o?Iy not
owing a cent, but with a surplus in
the treasury. I tell you. Sexton de
serves lots of credit- for the way he
ran things, and I'm perfectly willing
to take off mv hat to him.

MOVE TO DISBAND
Upper Mississippi Pilots' Asso
1 ciation to Close Up
Its Affairs.
DAYS OF USEFULNESS OVER
PASaiiig of Organization That Once
Wawa Power on the Hirer
Rcjjreltf d.
Within the next 0 days a meeting
will be called of the upper Mississippi
river .pilots to be held for the pur
pose of disbanding the organization.
The event is one which will not be
hailed with, pleasure by those remain
ing of the original association. The
organization was at f ne time the
strongest of its kind on the entire
ijver and its members were the only
ones who hail a clear conception of
the liver. Capt. Jrscph Ruisson, pres
ident f the association, and Master
John Day, secretary and treasurer,
are now both aboard boat below Rur-
lington, but will both be present at
the Winona meeting anil assist in the
disbanding. There is u considerable
amount of money in the treasury,
which it is thought will be placed in
a fund to be used for the support and
assistance of aged pilots and their
widows and families.
The reason triven for the disband
ing of the association is that the raft
Ing and general boating has declined
to such a degree that the original pur
pose of the association has been lost,
and therefore there is no further bus
iness to be transacted by the organ
ization.
A Power In Kitrly Day.
An one lime the association had a
most powerful influence on the traffic
of the river and the annual conven
tions were hailed with delight along
the river, where everything was given
over to a day of enjoyment when the
meetings were held. A number of
conventions have been held in thi lo
cality, and memories of these meet
ings are recalled with delight by
pilots who make this city their home.
Several of the members of the asso
ciation still reside here, who will go
to the meeting and take part in the
movement which will remove from
the river 'one of the strongest factors
that has ever been known.
One of the original intentions of
the association was for the ln-tter
protection and for the guidance of the
river pilots. The - rapidly changing
course f.f the stream rendered it ex
tremely doubtful whether a boat
could fellow the same course in going
up the rivef that it did in coming
flown. Old pilots tell with irlee of
farmers who have purchased proper
ty in Iowa and the next morning
found themselves residents of Illinois.
While this, perhaps, is an exaggera
tion, there are numberless instances
of changing sandbars, s-nags. new cur
rents and other unlookcd for obstruc
tions which' were the bane of the
pilot's existence.
Eiohaneed Information.
In order to protect themselves and
their, boats, the pilots' association
was organized ami a unique plan
formed for the guidance f.f members
f the organization. Pilots on the u-
going boats made notations of each
change in the course of the stream,
of the sandbars, and everything cal
culated to be of .valuable information
to the down-going pilot. Whenever a
boat was met with going down the
river, and the pilot was a memlier of
the association, the two pilots ex
changed information as to the sec
tion of stream through which they
d just passed, thus keeping to
themselves a system of river knowl
edge which made them wizards of the
rier. In addition to this important
feature of the association there were
fit hers of perhaps as much value in
the way of insurance and benefit
funds, making the association ai fac
tor among boat owners which could
not be flisensed with. An owner
would not trust his steamer with any
other than a member of the pilots as-
social ion, because of the danger from
river obstructions, and thus the pow
er was established. Hut few members
remain of the original association.
