An Educational Opportunity.
H. V, McManus, representing the Int.
Correspondence Schools of Scranton, Pa.,
has a very interesting display at Holsten's
drug store this week. The display will last
for five days during which time the creat-
est discounts ever allowed off the regular
prices in Alliance will be in effect.
A free lesson in German, French and
Spanish to all who attend during this
display.
Jos. J. Moore, the B. and M. round
house foreman, speaks very highly of the
school and his course, in fact can not say
too much in favor of it. Ask him about it.
Samples of Alliance students' drawings
and work will be on exhibition.
If you fail to see this display and learn
of the greatest educational institution in
the world you will regret it.
A New Departure.
The Herald, along with other papers in
the city, has decided on a new order of
things in the way of charging a nominal
fee for the publishing of cards of thanks,
resolutions, ana church notices where
prices of admission are charged. This
may seem an unusual departure from the
accustomed rule here, but the fact is that
such is the case in a ereat manv nlaces
and is found to be satisfactory to all inter
ested. 1 lie fact that much time and space
is devoted each week to matters of this
nature which newspapers treat in their
local writeups is sufficient explanation
that the press is justly entitled to a little
recompense for the publishing of the
notices under question, and which will be
as follows, beginning next week.
Cards of Thanks Not to exceed 10
lines 25c, each line additional 3c
Resolutions Not to exceed 20 linos. oc.
each line additional 3c.
Church and Society Entertainments,
Socials and Suppers where admission is
charged 3c per line.
Died Unattended and Alone.
Michael M. Jacoby, the well-known
butcher who recently had charge of Gra
ham's meat market, died suddenly and
alone some time last Friday and his body
found that evening in the barn of Mr.
Simonson, just east of the business houses
on the east side of Box Butte avenue,
between Wyoming avenue and Dakota
street. Ex-Marshal Wiker and a brother
of the deceased instituted a search for the
missing man with the above results. The
remains were taken to the home of Engi
neer S. W. Jacoby and the funeral held
Monday forenoon Rev H. P. V. Bogue
of the First Presbyterian church, officiat
ing. The interment was at Greenwood
cemetery. Michael M. Jacoby was born
in Burlington, Iowa, 39 years' ago, and
had been a resident of Alliance for 3
years. He was an experienced meat cut
ter and a most accommodating person in
his position. The trade always found him
obliging Hint' painstaking and in fact he
would go out of bis way to do a customer
n favor. Asa citizen he was quiet and
uuasumlng and in fact his tragic doath
was indeed a surprise to all. But stranga
things happen and human life is one of the
deepest problems the' sage and philosopher
have' over attempted to solve.
A alstar of tho deceased, Mrs, Lizxie
Grnvatte. of Waterloo Iowa, arrived Sun
day only to me her brother in death, and tin
tender derotions of her and the surviving
brother show how affectionate were the
ties that bound them together. Poor
Michael, his weakness was the cause of
his premnture end
New City Appointees. '
Tho meeting of the city council Tues
day night wns interesting as well as

were appointed.

The commissioner will furnish n team

Tho mayor found it necessary a
month ago to lot out Mr. Marr, citv

police foice, doing both day and night
work. It was expected by manv that
at this meeting of the council Mr.
Wiker would he appointed to succeed
Mt. Ila.r, but far from it he was laid
on the top shelf and Neitl Boon got tho
prize. Mr. Boon was appointed mar
shal nnd there will he no other night
officer. v Immediately after Mr. Boon's
appointment was announced, Mr.
Wiker wanted to know why he was
turned down and receiving no nnswer
he placed his star and keys on tho
table before the council and in a few
minutes Mr. Boon hnd taken
of office, given bonds and
the oath
became a
full-fledged officer of tho law.

Lord, and returned to his post in the
