Omaha, Neb., Jan. 1.—Advices re- ceived here say that the several com- mercial clubs of Big Horn county, Wyoming, are co-operating in a movement looking to the attraction of unmarried young women of mar- riageable age to that county. The movement was organized by the Gray Bull Club, the leading com- mercial organization of the growing town of Mecteetse, which invited all similar clubs in the county to join and to assist in giving {t impulee and direction. All the otherclubsaccept- ed the invitation, with the result that the movement bids fair to accomplish the object for which it was organized. These commercial clubs are trying by an organized and systematic movement to attract young women to Big Horn county in order to pro- vide wives for the unmarried men there. The recent state census shows that there are only 118 unmarried females, as against 1,262 unmarried males of and above the age of 21 in the county. : Thecommercial clubs of thecounty are circulating subscription papers owes sacs ob Face mate agement of the applauding and cheer. ing Americans. resources of Big Horn county, and| y the fact that there are not near a enough unmarried women there to Vices wake Gant uae tl WHERE TWO YEARS MEET.
