The musical program, given by the
Young People of the United Presbyterian
church, Friday evening, June 24th, was
well rendered and much enjoyed -by the
audience. The Young People were assist
ed by out side talent.
A hay-rack party was given by the Miss
es Anna Reck and Babe Hill, at the home
of the Hills, Tuesday night and the young
people had 'a great time. It was an ideal
moonlight night for a rural outing and the
spirits of the lads and lasses were at their
height.
A Mr. Kennedy of Sheridan was in the
city last week in the interest of coal inter
ests he represents. Mr K. has recently
opened a fine coal mine of this kind of
fuel in that neighborhood and has a part
of the B. & M. coal supply to fill during
the coming winter.
The new city hall is about under room
and it certainly gives Alliance a metropoli
tan appearance. The work is progressing
without interruption and it will not be
long until the city officials and fire depart
ment will be at home to their friends in
the new municipal quarters.
Horace Bogue has the people in terested
in the ticket business and as a result the,
store has been a veritable bee hive since
he inaugurated the scheme, which is a
boon to those who deal at the City Cash
Store. Read his advertisement on the last
page and consider the advantage in buying
at the prices he offers. ,
Rev. Father Barry left for Omaha the
first of the week to attend the annual
retreat of the priests of this diocese.
Father Barry has not been feeling well
since he came to Alliance and it may be
that he will not return to this parish. He
is a most zealous and genial man and his"
short stay among us has already created a
warm friendship which we are loath to
sever.
While out driving last Sunday, Mrs.
Geo. Gilespie and her three little children
had a narrow escape from a serious acci-
; dent. The horse took fright and ran away.
Mrs. Gilespie and the two oldest children
were thrown out of the buggy and escaped
injury but the little baby, of four months,
fell to the bottom of the buggy bed and
was carried along in the runaway, After
a wild ride of several blocks the vehicle
was overturned near the railway track in
the east part of town and the little one
tossed out. Strange as it may seem, the
babe escaped with but a few scratches.
Word was received along the line Wed
nesday afternoon from Burlington, Iowa,
to the effect that the little son of Mr. and
Mrs. A. S. Burrows, who are well known
in this part of the country, fell between a
pile of baled hay and before he could be
reached was smothered to death. The
family were at one time residents of
Sheridan, Mr. B. having extensive busi
ness interests along the Burlington, Nu
merous messages of condolence were for
warded to the bereaved parents from this
vicinity.
Arrangements have been made with the
railway company to attach a passenger
coach to train No. 45, on the, morning of
the Fourth for the convenience of Alliance
people who desire to spend the day at our
neighboring town of Crawford. The train
.ill leave here about 5 a. m., thus giviug
the greater part of the day to those who
luave here. The celebration at Crawford
is going to be a big affair and the attend
ance from this city will be large. We do
not forget the liberal patronage tendered
Alliance last Fourth by the Crawford peo-
Ele and now that we have a chance to get
ack at them we hope to reciprocate in a
like manner. '
The remains of Tlios. McLaughlin, who
was killed in this city by lightning last
Friday afternoon, were taken to Decatur
City, Iowa, Saturday night, accompanied
by his family, where the funeral was held.
The deceased was born in that city in the
year 1876. Besides his wife, Mr. Mc
Laughlin leaves two small children. A
fortunate instance surrounds the cutting
off of this young and good life, which will
prove of material benefit to the little flock
he leaves behind. Scarcely two motfths
ago H. II. Lewis, who is local secretary
for the Modern Brotherhood of America,
a fraternal institution, induced Mr. Mc
Laughlin to take out a life Insurance pol
icy for $2,oco; there was some hesitancy
on his part for a while, but he finally con
cluded to take Mr. Lewis' advice and of
course his untiirely taking away and the
protection afforded his family in n material
way tells its own story. While this is
small recompense to the widow who is cast
down in sorrow, yet it is consoling to learn
that life's path is not made doubly painful
to a mother with two little ones who re
quire her protection and assistance single
handed and alone. This is the third pol
icy within a year that this company has
been called upon to pay in this locality.
The other two were Ernest Lembku and
Wnlter Tice, for $2,000 and $200.
Rev. Burleigh of Hetningford was in th
city last night having made a trip through
the sand hills. He intended to proceed
home that night but Sheriff Reed served
notice that he had gone far enough for one
day and he was compelled to take that offi
cer's advice. The old friends enjoyed
their visit immensely.
The hotels and restaurants havo'been
doing a big busitiess during the past week.
For a few days and several nights lodging
rooms were a scarce article. Many
found shelter in privato residences and
while some of the land applicants had to
hustlo quite lively for quarters, no one
was disappointed iu this respect.
The Social Hour club with visiting
friends met at the homo of Mrs. Jnme
Bellwood last Friday afternoon and a very
pleasant time was had. The ladies first
met at the home of Mrs. M. . Johnson
where Mr. Jerry Rowan called with his
automobile and took them to the Bellwood
home. During the summer mouths the
club will meet the first' and third Friday
of each month. '1 he next meeting will be
with Mrs. L. A. Sichawver next Friday
afternoon.
J, C. McCorkle returned Wednesday
from nn extended trip through the southern
part of the state iu the interest of the
Triangle Lever Lift Hay Stacker, Mr.
McCorkle's trip was very sucegssful and
the sales for this stacker have been so
large that they have experienced dilfic .lty
in beings able to supply the demand. The
Triangle Lever Lift company haue an an
nouncement in this issue which will in
terest you.
This Ts certainly a world of human
divergence, and the sayjng that "one-half
of the world don't know how the other
half exists" is true. For instance: While
the greater population of Alliance were
falling over each other in the mad rush for
land Tuesday afternoon, a poor woman
with five little children the oldest per
haps 8. j ears and the youngest a mere
babe sat in the wa ting room of the
depot penniless and hungry. She was
here awaiting a letter and assistance from
her husband, but through some cause the
same did not materialize. After waiting
till almost evening, the woman mustered
up courage to go to Operator Kennedy
and ask him to locate her husband by wire.
It was thought he was at Hemingford but
later he was found at Crawford and her
condition made known to him. Mr. Ken
nedy saw to it that the destitute were pro
vided with food and bed for the night and
the next morning a telegram from the
husband brought an order far a ticket and
a small amount of money.
License to wed was issued yesterday
to Robson P. Carter and Hattic Tubbs.
Williard Beemnn and Sarah Barker
were married Monday by County Judge!
Spaclit.
Miss Clara Harding arrived Monday
from Sheridan to visit Miss Minnie
Morris.
Louis Buechsenstein aad daughter
and Mr. and Mrs. M. J. Sheehau went
to Hot Springs Saturday, returning
Tuesday meriting.
The board of county commissioners
adjourned last night. A complote re
port of equalization matters as well a
regularbusiness will appear iu our ne.xt

T. J. O'Keefe will leave tomorrow
for St. Louis to attend the democratic
national convention as a delegate from

Henry F. Merritt, a stockmau of
Table Grove, III., has been here a few
days visiting his niece, Mrs. E. P..
Sweeney and Mr. J. A. Heist. Mr.
Merritt bought two cars of choice
steers, which he will ship next week.
P. G. Cooper, Will Forbes and C. J,
Hornsby comprised a delegation of
Crawford citizens who were in Alliance
yesterday and this forenoon trying to
arrange for special train service for
those of our citizens who will go to
Crawford to celobrate the Fourth. The
best that could be secured were extra
cars on Mo. 45, which leaves here on
the morning of the Fourth at 5 o'clock.
We are assured that tho Crawford
people will do their utmost to entertain
her visitors.
Old Fashioned 4 th of July Celebration

Livelv GOOD ORDER PREVAILS
$lnuy Cntnp All Night In the Streets in
Order to be nt the Head of the Proces

. lee us llltsy iib 11 I tec Hive.
Tuesday was a grent day for Alliauce
and the scenos of bygone days were reen-
actcd with all the lively events surround
ing the opening of a new country. The
old pioneers who still remember the excit
ing events of tho early eighties and the
wild rush of emigrants front all parts of
the east looked on the throngs of humanity
crowding the thoroughfares of the city and
their minds reverted to tho days when
thuy themselves came here on the mission,
that of securing a slice of Uncle Sam's
domain. Whijo there was no diiorder or
rush thu aspirants woro early on the ground
and eager to gat into lino for registration,
which began at 9:00 oclock in the morning
Quite a number of over anxious camped
all night in the rear of the opera house
whero the line was to be arranged. At 7
o'clock Tuesday morning there were about
325 people in lino including men and
women aUd among them a good sprinkling
of the colored race. Marshal Boon had
charge of the organization of tho line and
with the assistance of Sheriff Reed and a
number bf deputies there was perfect or
der. It is only just to compliment the offi
cers and deputies on tho mannor in which
they handled the jostling crowd of hu
manity. Press dispatches tell of a differ
ent state of affairs at other places in thu
district where land offices are located
and especially was there disorder and
violence reported at Broken Bow, where
for a time it was thought that tho militia
would have to bo called out. Alliance
takes the banner for law and order and
we have reason to feef proud of the fact.
Of the several thousand strangers in the
city Tuesday and Wednesday, there were
but Iqw from out of tho state and the re
port that the Burlington would run a
special Tuesday morning loaded with laud
seekers from Pennsylvania proved errone
ous. The greatest body of applicants from
out of tho state came from Chicago and
they were among the first to reach the
land office, having been close to the head
of the procession. The ambitions of life
were fully illustrated by the appearance of
two, women in the line who were far past
the two-score-and-ten age. And a number
of men past 50 years were not a few.
Humanity with all its divergencies of disposition-was
interesting to observe. There
was the sullen, eager expression only
thinking of the chances to secure a section
of land, and the over anxious man who
some times had to be reminded that he
was overstepping his place in the line, and
the funny man who kept the whole crowd
in a constant roar of laughter by his wi
and comic songs. He took special delight
in telling the boys how much he thought
of his mother-in-law and the only thing
that kept him in line all night and the next
morning waa the fact that he intended to
spend five years on his claim and then
give Jt to his wife's mother as a Christmas
gift. Another wit wanted to know what a
good land office was without a land lady
for he said he was hungry having been
deprived of his breakfast in his night vigil.
And so the time passed to tho crowd in
line. .
The first day's registration numbered
about eighty-five. In the aftenoon the
officers took compassion on the people who
were growing fatigued over the long wait
and the heat of the sun and issued numbers
with duplicates in .the laud office to those
in line and they were thus at liberty to
break ranks. In less "time than it takes to
tell it, the street to the east of the land
office was deserted and only those who
held the numbers likely to be called soon
remained.
Wednesday morning was consumed by
the land office force in filing the applica
tions of those sent in by mail the night
previous. Almost one tlousand applica
tions were received in il.is manner. A
great many came from LakMide, Uemingr
ford and vicinity. A special train carry
ing a crowd of land seekers was hurried
east Tuesday to Lakeside to make the
necessary filings that could catch the first
mail to Alliance. Thursday another large
batch was turned in in the same manner.
Wednesday afternoon the local land
office resumed the work of accepting filings
from those who had not reached the office
the previous day. The work of making
out the entire documents was dispensed
with and only the essencial parts and
signatures occupied the clerical time. By
this method the work was greatly facili
teated, About thirteen hundred instru
ments were filed at the Alliance land office.
Felix Lester of this city had the honor
of being the first applicant in the line to
register at tho lund office Tuesday morn
ing. A great many landowners did remain to
file on additional land when they became
aware of the fact that according to the
Kinl'aid bill they had a 'preferential right
over all others for thirty days in which to
make filings on land adjoining their land.
This relieved the tension pf the moment
and was the cause of many leaving for
hotnd till a later date, when the crowd
was gone.
