Entertains St. Mary's Guild.
The ladies of St. Mary's Guild
held their regular meeting at the
home of Mrs. J. A. Donelan Tues
day afternoon, at which time they
were entertained by Miss Dora
Fricke and Mrs. Donelan. During
the early part of the afternoon a
very interesting business session
was held, after which the ladies
devoted the flying hours to social
conversation, sewing on dainty
fancy work and oilier amusements
which made the occasion a most
enjoyable one. At a convenient
hour the hostesses served a dainty
luncheon. There were a large
number of the ladies in attend
ance. Treated to Thorough Renovation.
The inferior of the Hotel Riley
in this cily is being treated to a
thorough overhauling and clean
ing, and the rooms and halls re
papered and repainted and placed
in first-class shape for the use of
the patrons. The work on the
building is being done by Frank
Gobelmau and his force of work
men, ami when completed the
hotel will be in splendid shape and
be placed in a clean and sanitary
condition. The work will take
some time to finish up, but when
the workmen are through with it
it will bea credit to the manage
ment of the hotel.
Mrs. J: H. Becker departed this
morning for Omaha, where she
expects to spend the. day visiting
with friends and attending to
business matters. Mrs-. George
A. Kaffenberjrer accompanied her
mother to the metropolis for the
day.
Items of Interest to Old and Hew
Residents of City Which Were
New Forty Years Ago.
Just as we were going to press
this morning, about 8 o'clock, the
alarm of fire was sounded. The
Herald boys dropped their sticks,
left the forms just ready for the
press; and broke for the engine
house.
The fire was in the building
just east of the court house,
known as Leonard's photograph
gallery, and occupied below as a
butcher shop. The fire caught
from a defective flue in the
butcher shop, and by the time the
people or engines arrived there,
the whole gallery was one dense
cloud of smoke and flame.
Volumes of black smoke poured
through the roof and the cracks
of the building, but for 15 or 20
minutes no blaze could be seen;
then little tongues of flame crept
through here' and there, and lick
ed out black and ugly patches' in
the weatherboards. Soon all the
roof was in a blaze. The next
building east and Ileisel's feed
store, of course caught, and the
blaze from all these buildings
rose high toward heaven. Now
I he firemen stream up over the
ladders, the little Babcocks squirt
and fizz, and the big engine, after
some delay, sent a shower of ben
zine over t lie roof. It was no fro;
higher rose the flames, fiercer
grew the heat. Treasurer Cum
mins began to pack the things
from bis office. Dan AIcKinnon
and Commissioner Clark, who
happened to be here, ordered the
things in the county clerk's office
be pulled out, and soon a huge
pile of county books, records,
pledges and vouchers lay in the
street. The court house caught
in several places, and for som
lime it seemed impossible to save
it. Wet blankets were spread on
Ihe roof of the county buildings,
and also on the roof and over the
sides of Merks' hardware store,
on the east. Wheeler's house was
in imminent danger, and the pale
faces on every hand gave token
that the danger was fully realized.
A bucket brigade was formed
from the creek, 125 yards distant,
and soon the water began to fiy
lively. All the wells about had
been emptied before this, the soda
water had given out in the big
Babcock, and the red, red fiend
seemed to be having a perfect
Christmas holiday time of if all to
himself. The firemen and citi
zens worked heroically to save
the court house, standing in the
scorching flames and packing
buckets rapidly to be flung over
the scorching, hissing roof. At
last the two frame buildings fell
with a great crash and the worst
of the danger was over. The
buckets did the business mainly,
and we hope hereafter when a fire
breaks out a bucket line will be
formed more speedily than it was
this morning. The machine shop
boys, our town boys and the fire
men all worked like nailers. Frank
Stadter held the nozzle on the roof
as long as a single "galoot" could
pass a bucket to him. Some man
in a blanket on the court house
kept his place firmly and passed
many a bucket along. It would
be useless to mention the names
of all who acted bravely and well;
the citizens may thank the boys
in a bunch for doing the best they
could, faithfully and lively, but
we need more organization, better
order and leaders, if we are to
have many more such tires.
The Damages Leonard saved
most of his pictures, chemicals,
etc., some ox the meat was saved
from the butcher shop, but most
of it was roasted too crisp for
even a grasshopper sufferer to
digest. Harvey Sage lived over
the auction store, but got most of
his things out and moved up to
Elbert Duke's. Ileisel lost some
of his Hour, feed, etc. Frank
While got his auction goods
mostly out. Leonard and Par
mele owned the building that
caught first, and Mr. Billings the
other two. No insurance on any
thing and the buildings a com
plete mass of cinders, with the
exception of a few bricks in the
side wall of the feed store. Loss,
about $4,000.
At 10 o'clock the streets are al
most cleaned, the books are put
back in the county treasurer s
and county clerk's offices, Heisel
is open across at Schluntz's old
stand and Leonard is hunting an
other skylight. ' He expects to
take a "photo" of the dirtiest fire
man there was before night yet.

Northern Neb., In Camp, July
18th.
I will have an opportunity to
send a letter to the postoflice to
morrow, so I will drop you a few
lines to let you know how I am
getting along. We left North
Platte on Saturday, July 11th,
and traveled over the sand bills
for about 25 mites, when our wa
ter pave out and so did the men
and mules and we camped for the
nignt. As soon as it was ngnt
we started again and traveled 10
miles before we found water.
We camped and had breakfast.
and remained until Monday
morning. e then ieu our
camp, which was beside a beauti
ful lake, and started for the Dis
mal river, we crossed the Loup
river about five miles from the
lake and here filled up our bar
rels and started across as dreary
a waste as I ever saw, with GO
gallons of water, intending to get
more at a lake that was about
half way between the lake and
the Dismal, but the lake was dry
when we reached it and we had
to travel on without water, we
left one wagon and traveled un
til about 12 o'clock at night,
when the mules could go no
further without rest, so we
camped fnr the night. At. day
light we unloaded one wagon of
every! bins" but the provisions
for breakfast and a few empty
kegs we started for the river anil

river is called the Dismal, but a
more beautiful si ream we
thought we never saw. The
mules and horses Could hardly
wait till we got their harness oil",
and as soon as they were loose
plunged down the bank and clear
into the river and seemed as if
they never would get their till,
and the men were not behind
hand for we were soon all in the
water. After breakfast we tilled
up our keps and barrel and
started back to where we had left
our goods. About 3 o'clock a
man came into our camp looking
for water, and reported a train
about ten miles back without a
drop. We sent a team with two
barrels to them immediately ami
they all arrived during the night.
The next morning (Wednesday,
we started to go down stream
and a lot of us pot our guns and
went ahead of the teams, when
six. of us, myself included, got
lost from the teams and didn't
get back until the next night,
and we had a pretty hard lime
of it, only having one rabbit be
tween six of us during that time,
but we are all right now. We
are camped on the Dismal river,
about two miles from ils junc
tion with the Loup. We hae
plenty of fresh meat, antelope
and deer being plentiful along
the banks of these streams.
