The Kearney Hub says that a citizen of that town whose name is omitted received $3'J0 last Tuesday. It was too late to deposit the money in the bank, and as it was known that he had it, he didn't feel safe in keeping it in the house over night. He concluded to bury it. which he did. The next morning he found the jar in which he had buried the money, but the coin of the realm was mi&sing. lie re- ported the matter to the police, but no clew to the guilty party has yet been found.

Manning at Cheyenne, Mr. Hig gins said a day or two ago that it is not his intention to bring new men here to take the places ot men who have been doing good work.

This association is prospering because of the hearty support of such a large number of persons. A certain business man was asked to renew his membership recently, yes, I will, and take a ticket beside for another worthy man, and if your finances run low call on me again and I will help you, was his reply.
