It is perhaps understood by all that
McCook has a Reading Room open every
afternoon and evening : that it is quite
well supplied with reading matter , and
is receiving a reasonable amount of pat
ronage. Some say it will be a failure.
That it is too great an undertaking and
must necessarily fail for want of means
to carry it on. It may be that those
who have so earnestly tried to make a
success of this effort will be obliged to
abandon it at the end of six months or
less than that , but even then we will
not considor it a failure. "In the morn
ing sow thy seed and in the evening
withhold not thy hand : for thou know-
cst not whether shall prosper either
this or that , or whether they both shall
be alike good. " We could not do other
wise than make the effort ; but we be
lieve the people of McCook will not
permit it to be abandoned ; that at the
end of that time such a place will be
considered a necessity in this commu-
| nity and all , where now there are but
few , will feel such an interest as will
cause them to put their hands down
deep in their pockets and contribute
toward its success. In almost every
case where we have conversed with
persons , they have expressed themselves
favorable , and although the methods
used may not in every case be the best ,
any suggestions offered or interest shown
will be very thankfully received. It is
, always true that members in their efforts
to succeed in any undertaking are of
great , importance , so friends the call is
for workers. W. C. T. U.

that.-merciless destroyer of life and
fiendish adversary of souls , King Alco
hol , whose altar wo have fet up in our
" midst , and whom we worship and obey.
His illness was of comparatively short
duration , pneumonia took hold of him.
and hi0 body , from which the sap and
vitality had been sucked by public school
; liquid , fell an easy prey to the destroyer.
He was , in his rough way , a kind-heart
ed husband and father , and but for his
unfortunate weakness for drink , would
yet be supporting and comforting a
family now in deep sonow. Let us
throw the mantle of chanty over his
\ycakriess , and remember only our duty
to fellow man.
Another terrible warning comes to us
from our neighboring town of Culbeit- .
son , where a harness maker by the name
of J. II. League was frozen to death ,
last Thiusday night , while in a drunken
stupor. League w.is formerly a resi
dent of Lincoln , and a member of Far-
agut Post G. A. R. , and had but recent
ly moved to Culbertson. where he was
gradually building up a profitable busi
ness ; but in a moment of weakness he
drank too deeply of the "cup which
doth intoxicateand starting home , he
miserably perished in sight of home and
dear ones. The deceased leaves a wife
and four children , the youngest one but
two weeks old , and it is understood
that the bereaved and heart-broken wid
ow will prosecute the individual who
sold the liquor to the deceased , and en
deavor to obtain damages. "Am I my

Two Souls Made Happy.
M. 1) ) . Thurston , of Columbus , repre
senting the Union Central Life Insur
ance Co. o.f Cincinnati , has been in the
, this week ' of
city , on business-'part
which being the settlement with Mrs.
Caroline Barraclough of the policy held
by her husband , Jabez Barraclough ,
whose demise , a few month's since ,
in the prime and vigor of manhood.will
be remembered by our citizens. Al
though the time reserved by the com- '
pany in which'to pay their losses had
not nearly expired , their agent , Mr.
Thurston. promptly reported at the Bar
raclough residence and handed the win-
ow a : lraft on" the First National Bank
of Cincinnati for $2,000. The deceas-
i
cd had only paid one year's premium
on the policy , which now comes as a
god-send to the widow in full. Mr.
Thurston also paid James W. Ridgeway
of Curtis. Frontier county , an endow
ment policy of $1,026.29. The old re
liable Union Central's prompt settle
ment , devoid of the quibbling which us
ually is a prominent feature in these ad
justments , has made her all the more
in popular favor with the people.
