The election of J.

J. W. Hannah and T. J. } Day,whotook the matter in hand and niacouple of days pushed things zens of this town are indebted for | the re-erection of Butler's hand i | | | Butler Loan and Trust Co., who! have at this writing already let the contracts fur doing the work. W. W. Eldridge has the contract for doing the carpenter work, Ross & Rogers will do the brick work, T. J. Day the stone work, while Power Bres., will furnish the brick. The contracts for doing the work were all let Saturday evening and Monday afternoon men and teams were put to work clearing away the debris from the vurned building. The new opera house will differ somewhat from the elegant Walton building, but it is the aim of the company to make it just as nice and jn some respects better than the old plan, as the new opera room will be located on the ground floor and the plan of the new building will be on the plan drawn up by the Bonhams, with slight variations to make the room more complete. The scenery for the stage has been selected and the new building will be heated by steam. It is expected by the management to have the house completed by De- cember Ist, when the grind open- ing will take place. The proposition made to the citi- zens of Butler by the Loan & Trust Co., to rebuild the opera house, was the fairest that has ever been made, and the fact that it was accepted and the donation raised in less than twenty-four hours goes to prove that Butler’s citizens are still alive to the interests of the town, and are ready and willing to assist in every enterprise that will prove of benefit to the city. The Trrrs is proud to know that the opera house is to be rebuilt and is perfectly willing that Capt. J. W. Hannah and T. J. Day shall have the entire credit of working up the scheme and inducing the Loan & Trust Co., to put up the building. Elder Browning united in mar- riage at his residence in this city Thursday of last week T. E. Grider of West Point township, and Miss Ona Allen of Elkhart township.

Mr. G. is one of Bates counties most substantial young men and we take pleasure in congratulating him on securing the heart and hand of the handsome and accomplished Miss Allen.
