Discuss a Streot Fair, At the meeting of the Commercial Club last evening, considerable time was given to a discussion of the advisability of holding a street fair in this city the latter part of August or the early part of Sep tember. Several members present had attended street fairs in differ ent sections of the country and gave the meeting the benefit of their ob servations. Every business man present felt favorable inclined toward the project, and some were very enthusiastic. In order to obtain information on which to reach a definite conclu sion as to whether such a fair should be held, the meeting sug gested that the board of directors appoint a committee of five to fully investigate the matter and make a report at the earliest possible date. At a subsequent meeting of the board the following were named as such committee: 10. B. Warner, chairman, W. A. Vollmer, Max Kirschbaum, Geo. M. Graham and and Geo. T. Field, with W. II. C. Woodhurst as an advisory member. This committc will at once begin to make the necessary investiga tions, and if necessary will scud a member to Hastings and Lexing ton, where street fairs were held last year, and will probably make a report to the club at the regular meeting next Mopday evening. The concensus of opinion seems to be that if a fair is held it should be a good enc; that it should be of such magnitude as to attract the attendance of people within a radius of filty or seventv-five miles of North Platte. If the report of the committee is satisfactory, the Club will at once begin preparations and push the enterprise to a suc cessful end. Wator Plant at Comotory. The cemetery association closed a contract. Saturday for a water plant at the cemetery. It will con sist of a ten-foot wind-mill, a ten thousand gallon tank and twenty five hundred feet of pipe The tank will be placed at such an elevation as to give a prctsurc of about forty-five pounds. The water main will encircle the cemetery and will be laid about a foot below the surface. At intervals of fifty feet hose bibs will be attached to the main, and by means of these a fifty foot hose will reach any lot in the cemetery. The material has been ordered, and in about two weeks the plant will be in operation, Lot owners will be glad to learn of this much needed improvement, as they will now have an opportun ity to keep the lots in neat order, a condition tiiat lias ocen practically impossible in the past, The ceme tery, which has been barren and unsightly can now be made to look trim and presentable. We commend the association for tuc step it has taken. The supreme court has gone on record as stating that Admiral Dewey and his sailors arc men ol valor and that the battle of Manila bay was one of the century' bravest feats of arms. At the same time the court cuts in halt the prize money so long sought by the heroes, so that the admiral will get only $10,000 instead of $20,000 and his men will suffer in like pro portions. Words of praise coining from so distinguished a source as the supreme court must be sweet indeed, but it is safe to say that the admiral and his jackies will think them about the bitterest sweetness which they ever tasted. uiiicago iNcws. Last month, was the warmest May we have had since 1880. the averaire beinir sixtv-thrce deirrecs The rainfall was only nine-tenths of an inch, while in May, 1899, the fall was a little over three and one half inches, and over four inches in May, 1898, It was therefore not only a dry but a hot mouth, and yet vegetation forged ahead rapidly. Morti'age Itocord, The mortage record in the county clerk's ollice show the following transaction for the mouth of May: Farm mortgages filed, 52,000.00 satisfied, 5,884.05.

Evans, of Ilcrshcy, census enumerator for this district began his work in that line on Friday, June 1st. The hail that prevailed last Thursday evening with the wind and rain at the same time, did con siderable damage to garden truck.
