There was a goodly numbor in attendance at the service. Wo havo a premium list of tho Ne braska State Fair, which is to bo'held August 29th to September 5th. This county should mako an exhibit of its products not only collectively but in dividually. We believe that this county produces not only as good or better cattle, hogs and horses as any county in the state but raises grain of all kin U as good as there is to bo found anywhere. It is to the interests of tho entire county that an e-hibit should be made. Many people living outside of this state visit this fair for tho purpo9o of seeing what tho country produces. If this fad of pitching horse shoes keeps on the l bailees aro there will have to bo moro room provided in tho Lincoln asylum, and also moro room on the court docket for tho tiling of divorce suits. Just imagine a woman trying to keep supper warm from 0 to 0 whilo her husband is down town on business pitching horse shoes. But that's nothing. Imagino a man in sweet reposo suddenly arousing his spouso with a hearty laugh and the re mark: "Well, hero goes for n ringer. Shucks, it's only a leaner." And just then his faithful sViouse got in a"ringer" that ho wasn't looking for and tho game was called oh. There '.s ono thing tho county com missioncrs should do nt their next meeting, and that is to properly iloor tho bridge across tho river at this place. At present it is considerably worse than the rocky road to Dublin as wo understand that famous road of history. Going across it, even in a first class buggy, puts a man in mind of his babyhood days when ho was lying in a cradle and someone was "jiggling" him up and down. And while wo aro on this subject of roads, wo would sug gest that thoy doviso some way to lix tho road from tho bridgo ono-fourth or oven one-half of a mile west, so that it will notjje an impassable mud hole every timo it rains, The city council at its meeting last Wednesday ovening accepted tho prop osition of Joe Burns of Lincoln rela tive to furnishing a sufllcient supply of wnter. Thursday evening tho council ngain mot and rescinded its former ac tion, postponing tho matter for sixty days. Mr. Bums agreed to put in a system of wells, coonect thorn with tho pump and do such other work as may bo necessary, whereby tho city will obtain a supply of not less than 200,000 gallons of water per day, in ad dition to what it alrondy has, and to do this for $1,512 In case ho is unablo to do this he is to reeoivo nothing from tho city. In explaining his plan Mr. Bums staled that he expected to run pipe to tho north sido of the creek and there put in a number of wells or snnd points, and that ho might also liml ii necessary to lower thu pump a few feet. Mr. Burns left for Lincoln Thurs day morning and expected to return to this city the lirst of next week, ready to put down several test wells, but tho action of the council last night post pones the work indefinitely.

CRICK. 5 Decoration Day Services. Last Friday, Decoration D.iy, was very appropriately and beautifully ob served in tills city. Not only did the (5. A. U. and W. U. C. nobly pel form their pint of the service, but all our people turned out and did homage to the dead. The cemetery had been nicely decorated and there could scarce ly bo found a grave but what boro Ilowers as a mark of remembrance. After the usual ceremony of the deco ration of graves had been pcrfoimed tho program was carried out as was published in our previous issue, and each of the speakers did themselves credit. Tho coremon'.es were of such a solemn and imprc3sivo nature as will long bo remombered by all who at tended, and will lead others to join in tho universal observation of the day, a day which should be observed by all. Owing to tho advanced age and fee bleness of tho mombors of the Grand Army nnd tho distance to the cemetery tho stroet cars weio used to carry tho veterans to Division street, from whenco they walked to tho grave yard. The ladies of thu W. U C. in carriages joined the procession follow tho cars. At tho cenietory the usual exercises were held, the W. U C. and school children decorating the graves of the thirty-six old soldieis nnd nine teen wives and daughters nf the old soldier?, and also .sons of veteran8, of the civil wir who are buried theio. 'IheG. A. U. and W. U V then eon. ducted their sei vices in honor of the uiiKiiown dead, after wliuh they pin eeeded to the epeaUer- i:ind which had been elected within the ceiueteij grounds After being called to order by U. B Fulton one veie of the song America was sung by the audi ence and Uev. Dixon invoked tin1 di vine blessing. An address was then delivered by Governor Savage, which was well received by the audience, after which nnother song was sung anil the Uev. T. A. Meredith pronounced the benediction. Groat Koon Wedding Last Monday evening, June 3, at the residence of Mr. and Mrs. D. L. Groat, in tho south part of town, occurred a very pleasant event, whou their daugh ter, Dorn II , was united in marriage to Elmer L. Koon, Uev Dixon olllci ating. Tho wedding was a private one, only relatives and a few very inti mate friends being present. After the ceremony a sumptuous wedding sup per was served. The bride and groom woro the recipients of i- number of useful and appropriate presents. Mr. Koon litis for some time been a popti ular and pleasing voung clerk in Uife & Koon's grocery store .ind mai mar ket, and tho bride lias icnidcd here for several years and is well known and highly esteemed. The young couple started yesterday on a trip to Okla homa and expect to be gone about a month, after which they will return to this city, whore they will mako their fnturo home. Shriaers Enroute to 'Frisco. On Monday night two special trains carrying eastern members of the Mys tic Shrine passed through Ued Child on their way to tho annual session of the imperial council, A. A. O N. M. S , at San Francisco, Juno 10. The lirst section of tho special, which arrived about 8 o'clock, cairied Philip C. Shaf fer of Philadelphia, tho imperial poten tate of tho order for North America, and members of tho order from Phila delphia, Baltimore, Washington and Cincinnati, accompanied by a goodly sprinkling of ladies. Tho train stopped in Ued Cloud for an hour, and all took supper at the B & M. hotel.

Quite a number of ladies and gentlemen drove down from town to welcome the tirst train. iJiist Doable l! When a house is painted it is safe to estimate that a value has been added to it which is never less and somotimes double tho cost of painting. How - About - Your House? ? Multiply tho distance around it by the avernge height; divide by 3.10.
