DEALER IN Farm Implements, Buggies, Wagons, Windmills, Pumps, 7. M. C. A. MOTES. Ladies you arc invited to meet with the gentlemen next Sunday afternoon at 3:30 in the M. 13 church. This will be a union meet ing' of all the churches of North Platte. It will be a great meeting for the young people. The M. 13. choir will sjng special music. The chorus singing will be uplifting. A. P. Parsons will address the meeting. The Y. M. C. A. rooms will be open as usual irom 1:30 to 5:30 p. m., but it is hoped that the railroad boys will come in crowds to the meeting at the M. 13. church. Twenty-five men were- jrlad that they attended the men's meeting last Sunday. Many of them ex pressed their feelings to the secre tary. There came into the rooms a U. P. fireman this week and after he had seen the pearly white tubs, library, reading room, parlor, game room and lastly the punching bag, he said, "I am ashamed ot myself that I have not been a member be fore." Into his pocket went his hand and the secretary soon had 73.00 in his and the fireman had a ticket that he could use all over the United States. The aecrctary has been thinking cvcr since what a good thing it would be if a number of other fellows would get that shame feeling and come in and do as this fireman did. The associa tion can care for another hundred yet. Miss Mablc English, of Council Bluffs, Iowa:, remembered this Y. M. C. A, with a beautiful set of parlor croquet this week, which was rcceiyed with much pleasure and gratitude. S. The Parish Frieit Prom tUe title '."The Parish Priest," one would judge that Dan'l Sully's new production was a strictly religious one. On the con trary, there is not euouch .religion in it to offend the most constant and loyal church-goer. Pathsr Whalen, the role assumed by Mr. Sully, is a man, human like other men, fond of visiting his flock, capable of telhhg a story ot min gled pathos and humor, that will bring a tear to the eye one minute or a smile to the lip the next. Not the kind of priest you read of, but one, like thousands ot tnem to be found every day, lending a helping hand to the poor and needy, hopeful and strong in the hour ot trouble with a cheery word and look to chase away the gloom, and bring the Bunshiue into heart and home once again. In tact a character that only to come iti contact with makes life seem the brighter and purer. It is needless to say, in this char acter, Mr. Sully has made the hit of his stellar career. But realizing one mau does not make the nlav. Mr, Sully haB surrunded himself with an excellent cast. This play will be presented at the opera bouse May 1st, COMMISSIONERS' PROCEEDINGS April 22, 1900 Board met pursuant to call of county clerk, present full board and county clerk.
