Aftor veins of agitation and much
work, .the great desire of Alliance peo
ple will soon be roalUcd in the cstab
lishmedt of a Sisters' academy in our
thriving city, and n groat deal of the
credit for this grunt task must be given
to Father McNamara, who has done
Herculean work in finishing the same.
St. Agnes academy, as it now stands
completed,- inspires one with the spirit
that prevails amoiig the good people of
Alliance and vicinity for their generous
contributions to tljo fund required to
erect the fine brick structure. It speaks
volumes for the brotherhood of man,
irrespective of .religious difference, and
surely is an indication of the hue spir
it of christian chatity.
The management of this new cducn
tional institution will be conducted by
the Sisters of St. Francis of whom we
have spoken of before ami hope to have
the pleasure of referring to often frgm
now on. Last Monday noon the first
of the order to have charge of St. Ag
ues academy arrived from the mother
house in Buffalo, N. Y., in the persons
of Sisters Euphtasia, Cornice, Geralda
and Olinda, and It will be a matter of
much importance in years to come,
when time shall have removed, them
from their field of labor to thcii homes
beyond, that their namds will be in
sciibed upon memory's to-nb as the
pioneers of education in St. Agnes
academy m the days when western Ne
braska was merging from the wild and
wooly west to a peaceful, settled ton
as staid as the cities and villages of
old New York state.
The Sisteis have a printed piospec
tus which they will be pleased to send
to any one desiring information re
garding St. Agnes academy. This
will explain all matters in leference
thereto. For the benefit of out-of-towii
people who desire to send their
children to the academy, we publish
the following terms and conditions:

Acting Sheriff M. V. DCTovan re
ceived a dispatch Monday afternoon
about 4 o'clock to look out for a forger
by the name of J. Henderson, who was
supposed to have left that city for the
east. The east-bound passenger had
just left here when the marshal receiv
ed the telegram ami he supposed the .
man wanted had gone on east. How- j
ever, about 8 o'clock in the evening
Marshal Donovan noticed a stranger1
going by the' Disuier pool hall who I
tallfed with the description received. '
He appiehcnded Henderson, who de
nied any knowledge of the deed and j
even declared that he had never been
uuSlieiidiiu. Hut the suspicious .mar
shal would not believe this and took
him into custody. A telegram was
sent to Sheriff Beneficl of Sheridan
county Monday inght and Deputy
Wood arrived yesterday to take Hen
dei son back with him on the afternoon
train. Henderson is said to be an all
around crook. He also goes by the
name of Kickctts. The forgery was
that of the name of a liveryman at
Sheridan in the sum of S40.
After beating his Way to Edgelnont,
Henderson got in with horse shippers,
who gave him a pass east, and when
the train reached here he came up
town to purchase a package of tobacco
and hence met his fate. Marshal Don
ovan turned the prisoner over to Sher
iff Wiker pending the arrival of the
Sheridan official. j
