James McCotler , Mr. Farley's next

formed by Dr. Willey , the B. & M.
Surgeon. Jim will be disabled for aboul
a month ; but the Doctor says he will
be able to mash nmrpheys in a short
time.
Rogers have received a stock of over
coats that excels anything ever brought
into the valley. They range in price
from $3 up to the finest , and the man
who goes around shaking with cold when
he can get one of these good , warm
coats at a price so low that all can buy ,
had better go back cast and give up the
ghost , then probably he will Jiave no
use for one.
Culbertson now sports a full-fledged
literary society , which meets every
Tuesday evening. An extended and
interesting program for Tuesday even
ing of this week was in the Sun , which
will be performed by the intelligence of
the burg. Won't some literary gentle
man or lady of McCook take the initial
in the matter and organize Lyceum
here. Give the "young man eloquent"
a chance.
Thomas Rees , Esq. , of Clayton , N.
Y. , who visited his son , T. G. Rees ,
Chief Dispatcher at this place , some
time since , writes that he "feels like
selling put and coming West to pass
the rest of his days. " From the illus
tration shown our reporter of Mr. Rees1
residence , we are 'forced to conclude
that we have a grand country , that he
should be willing to leave it to come
and live in the "Great American
Desert ( ? ) "
The death of Delbert Vastine has
cast a gloom over the entire communi
ty. He passed away Thursday morning -
ing at 8 o'clock after a short illness of
inflamation of the bowels. Amiable
and genial in manner , honest and up
right in character , and although young
in years he won the friendship and es
teem of all who knew him. His remains
were followed to the grave by a large
concourse of sorrowing friends and rel
atives. The bereaved parents have the
sympathy of the whole community ,
Cujbertson Sun.
There seems to be a great rush to get
idld of land in Red Willow county , and
in this vicinity. Everybody is pro
foundly impressed with the belief that
this country will receive an immense
immigration in the spring , and are
"rustling" accordingly. All eastern
people desirous of becoming homestead
ers are turning their eyes Republican
and in twelve-month
Valley-ward , a -
there will be- very little government
land unoccupied in the Upper Repub
lican valley , and the Magic City will
blossom like a rose. Vide.
Fall term of school ended on Friday
last. Both teachers and pupils have
labored under disadvantages during the
term just closed which would materially
elevate the standard of the school were
the same removed or rectified. Not
having a register , the principal did not
keep any record of the school , and there
is necessarily nothing to show what
progress our bos and girls have made.
Parents should be alive to this matter
of the education of their children , and
see that they have all the advantages
and helps within their power and means
to provide. Some steps ought to be
taken before the opening of the winter
term.
An individual of the "
"talk-you-to-
death' ' genus , J. H. Tignon , by name ,
registering as from St. Louis , and claim
ing to be with the State Journal Co. ,
has been doing McCook , this week , so
liciting advertisements at $3 each , for
a hotel register which he presents to
the landlord who will accompany him
on his tour soliciting. A representative
of the Journal who happened to be in
town denies that he has any connection
with the company , and also states that
this same individual is a gambler who
has made a number of thousand dollars
in this system of gulling the unsophis
ticated , which he resorts to to make
his stake.
Now is the time to consider the pro
ject of having a creamery at McCook ,
next spring , to utilize the milk of the
hundreds of cows in this vicinity.
Creameries have been in operation all
over this state for a number of years ,
and all have been big paying invest
ments when properly managed. As all
are probably aware there are quite a
number of creameries down the valley ,
and from the reports made concerning
them in the fall , they have all of them
been successful in every way. We have
the lacteal fluid in abundance , the cap
ital , energy and push , and all we need
is some one to take hold of the matter ,
and we can have as fine a creamery in
this place in the spring , as any in the
valley. This matter has been agitated
in a measure during the fall , and deci
sive steps should now be taken , and
another industry added to our flourish
ing , prosperous little city.
The Creston , Iowa , Daily Advertiser ,
of the 20th , contains the following ac
count of the marriage of Tom Bissett
of our city :
This paper failed heretofore to note
the wedding of the editor's old friend ,
Tom Bissett , of McCook , and Miss Til-
lie Koch , of Hock Island , 111. , which
occurred at the' home of the bride's sis
ter , Mrs. Frank Beerkle , in this city ,
last Saturday at 12 o'clock noon. The
happy couple left on No. 3 the same
afternoon , for their new home , Mc
Cook , Neb. The Advertiser wishes
them much joy in the new life they ;
have entered upon. Tom's many friends
in the round house here , determined
to give him a charivarie , and as the
newly married couple were not going
to remain in the city over night , the
boys congregated to the number lOf
about 100 , soon after noon , and chari-
varied them. Tom name to the fronl
like a little man , and gave the boys a
bill , with which they bought refresh
ments and discussed them in the engine
house last evening , and a jolly time
they had , too.
