DEATHS AND FUNERALS.
John C. McCullock, aged forty
Tour, formerly a ranchman of EUs
worth, died In Alliance Saturday
morning of rheumatism. Funeral ser
tlces were held from the Catholic
hurch Monday morning and inter
ment was made in the aCtholic cem
etery. Mr. McCullok leaves a
wife.
Mrs. Roelle, an ol dresident of Al
liance, died at a Denver hospital on
Tuesday afternoon, and the remains
were brought to Alliance for burial,
arriving Thursday morning. The
tody is at the Glen Miller undertak
ing parlors. Mrs. Roselle had lived
in Alliance for a number of years
and was well known throughout the
lty. Her husband Is now in the hos
pital because of injuries resulting
from an automobile accident three
or four months ago. Funeral ar
rangements have not been made.
N. E. Dunting, a representative
of the Deerlng works In Chicago, who
has been in Alliance for the past
three days, left Tuesday for Denver.
Ralph Cox this week purchased
of Oeorge Duncan the town property
on Cheyenne and Sixth streets, con
sisting of a hungalow and lot, the
consideration being 16.250. Mr. Cox
secures a very desirable property.
R. M. Hampton this week receiv
ed a letter from Fred Betiold, a for
mer resident of this city who was
well known and well liked here for a
good many years before he removed
to California. Mr. Detzold says that
he has purchased a home in Los An
geles, and that he has an acre of
bearing fruit trees, which yield a
pretty heavy crop. He writes that
he Is a trifle diffident about climbing
a step ladder, and hints that Mr.
Hampton Is welcome to show up at
any time and help pick fruit, al
though, If he continues to entertain
the usual number of Box Butte coun
ty vistlors, there soon won't be any
fruit left, and those who like fruit
had better plan to make their visits
before the supply is exhausted.
J. T. Watson of Mitchell, Neb.,
who Is better knon as "rete" Wat
son throughout this part of the
country, arrived in Alliance last
Thursday evening. He came to Alli
ance to take his wife, who under
went an operation In the local hospi
tal three weeks ago, back to Mitchell,
and the two of them left the city Fri
day afternoon. Mrs Watson had
made a good recovery and was In
fine splrtls, so Mr. Watson said when
he dropped Into The Herald office to
leave a renewal subscription. Pete
Watson came to Box Butte county
some thirty-five years ago, and has
been in this territory ever since. He
knew Alliance when the city was In
its swaddling clothes," and In earlier
days used to be known not only as a
wolf hunter, but as a wolf killer. So
proficient was ho with his rifle that
the cattlemen hired him to keep
down the wolf crop, and for a num
ber of years this constituted Ms chief
occupation. Watson is a fine figure
of a man, and a stranger guessing his
age would put it several notches be
low t e real mark. He Is an expert
horseman, and has been in constant
demand for a -number of years as
marshal of the day on public occa
sions. Wild west shows, celebrations
and public entertainments of that
sort find that Watson, seated on his
saddle horse, Is a big attraction. He
says that he don't have as many rid
ing horses these days as he used to,
and he misses the big bunch of stag
houn s that he used to take with
him on his wolf hunting expeditions.
In the days when he spent the lime
looking for wolves, there were a good
many stretches out In this country
where a man jould ride twenty-five
miles without seeing a house, but
that was some time ago. . Mr. Wat
son has achieved publicly in a num
ber of the big dallies, both eastern
and western, as well as & number of
magazines. He doesn't chew tobacco
and has to date never been under ar
rest, but he has some bad habits and
Is In such a state of health that he
has plenty of time to accumulate
more If he ever feels In the mood.
The Herald boys had a mighty pleas
ant visit with him and trust he will
look us up again the next time he l
in X)ur neck of the woods.
In the last thirty days. E. T,
Klbble & Co. have sold 2,4 40 acre
of Box Butte county land. Tbl
means that there will be at least sis
new residents In the county. It
won't be long before the better farm
will be commanding high prices.

As announced when this nal closing out sale was at first advertised, I have been and am continuing to dispose of my splendid stock of merchandise at cost. I HAVE KEPT FAITH WITH
THE PUBLIC AND THEY KEPT FAITH WITH ME. I have done exactly as I said I would in the instance of every sale. I am glad I plunged so heavily upon the markets two years ago for sev
eral reasons. It has enabled me to have goods upon my shelves at this time that other merchants are unable to duplicate on the markets today. They can't get it for any price.
As previously stated there are two reasons why I was forced to dispose of my stock of merchandise at cost: The fact that I must vacate this building and in consideration of my own health.
I feel that I must get out of this line of business, having been engaged in it since I was tall enough to see over a counter, and I desire to engage in some outside line, following an extended vacation.
There is an additional pleasure to be found, however, in permitting my old friends and customers to take advantage of an opportunity such as I have presented. It makes my heart swell with
joy to see my friends and patrens come to my store to know that I am saving them many hundreds of dollars on merchandise every day. Who deserves this saving more than they?
