A COOL DEAL R. II. Williams , the
first of the week , purchased Brewer Bros'
ice business , and commenced delivering
the sparkling crystallization to his cus
tomers.
Last week , Messrs. Moody & Winter
disposed of their herd of dairy cows , to
gether with their milk cans , to Eaton
Bros. & Co. of the new South Side
Dairy , for $1,300.
Don't forget the Congregational social
at the residence of G. A. Noren , to
morrow ( Friday ) evening. The invita
tion is general , and a pleasant evening
is sure to be your reward.
The Catholic brethren used their fine
new organ for the first time , on Easter
Sunday , Rev. Hall presiding at the in
strument. Father Cullen was sufficient
ly recovered to conduct the Mass.
UNFORTUNATE. "Misfortunes never
come singly" thinks our fellow-towns
man , Jacob Thomas , who has just re
cently suffered the loss of a horse and
a cow in uncomfortably rapid succession.
On Friday of las't week , A. McG.
Robb sold his fine mare to John Lanham
of Crete , the consideration being the
22 - year lease on 150 acres of school
land near the city , and $100 in cash ,
certainly an advantageous deal.
IMPROVEMENTS Cashier Ebert of
the Citizens Bank is having an addition
built to his property on Monmouth
street , besides having the same enclosed
by a neat picket fence , the house paint
ed arid things brightened up generally.
The Methodist church altar was very
handsomely and appronriately orna
mented , Sunday , upon the Easter Service
occasion. The flowers which were loan
ed fi-r the service b } ' the ladies of the
church , were a noticeable and pleasant
feature.
Yesterday , Contractor Collins com
menced the erection of L'Ro7 Allen's
residence on north Monroe street , which
is to be a cosy little home 24x2G feet ,
with an L addition 1C feet square , all
finished up in good shape with a bay
window , porches , etc.
A neat little residence of the square
design is in course of erection on North
Monmouth street , by Fred. Noren.
Monmouth street is , by the way , loom
ing up with new residences and beauti
fied and improved properties upon which
houses have already been built.
The proper authorities should see to
it at once that the carcasses scattered
along the various avenues of approach
to our city are buried. Reports of teams
being frightened , and of the. horrid
stench arising from decomposing ani
mals , are coming up from all quarters.
_
CHANGE OF BASE S. A. Shaffer has
rented the building just west of the B.
& M. Pharmacy , and is now occupying
the same as a tin shop. lie also re
moved his repair shop from Manchester
avenue to the rear of his shop on Denni
son street. This gives him much larger
and more convenient quarters.
REAL ESTATE TRANSFER Last Fri
day , William Mclntyre sold his fine
deeded quarter , three miles north of
the cit } ' . to Rev. J. W. Kimmel , for the
neat little sum of $1,400. The quarter
is an unusually fine , smooth one , and
will prove a good investment , with the
present rapid appreciation of land in the
vicinity of McCook.
We call your attention to the card
of Agee & Wiley appearing in another
column. Mr. Agee of the firm is well
and favorably known over this state as
an able lawyer , and as a man of sterling
integrity of character. We welcome
him to our city and to its legal fraterni
ty , iu which he will doubtless secure
his share of the business , as 'his ability
commands.
Au individual named Walker , who is
occupying quarters over the City Meat
Market , jumped or was thrown out of
the window of his room , Tuesday night ,
fracturing a small bone of one of his au-
kles , and injuring his back to some exten t.
The party acknowledges having been
drinking some , so that the inference is
easily drawn as to whether he jumped ,
fell , or was thrown out.
j j
' BUSINESS CHANGE. On Monday , |
Jno Farley soJd his half interest in the j
( Jit } Meat Market busings and building ,
and also his ranch just west of town to
his partners , Black & McKillip , the
t consideration being $5,500. Mr. Farley
retains his cattle and land north of. the
city. Messrs. Black & McKillip contin
ue the business at the old stand.
Elsewhere in this issue we publish a
short letter from the pen of one of our
'old settlers. While the communication
does not cover the entire field , by any
means , it is the truthful presentation of
one who has observed the progress of
the county through a series of years.
The letter was written to the Washing
ton ( Ind. ) Gazette.
We direct attention to the lumber ob-
structing the sidewalk on the Scott cor-
ner , opposite' the Commercial House.
The place of a dark night is positively
dangerous. Already one of our citizens
is suffering from a painful injury re
ceived by running into the lumber which
blockades the walk. How about the
sidewalk which was ordered built along
the north side of the lot , some time
since.
On Tuesday morning , a Council Bluffs
drummer for a hardware firm and one
of the dining room girls at the McEntee
were joined in holy wedlock as it were ,
by an official from Culbertson. The pe
culiar part of the affair d'amour are that
the wedding was performed without a
license , and that the groom , witness
and official were so gloriously full that
none of them knew who was marrying
or being married.
A bridge over the Republican at a
point east of McCook would be a paying
investment for our city , as well as one
on the west side. Our people should
open up the avenues of approach to the
city , so that the tributary trade can
conic easily and naturally. To do so ,
bridges and roads are most essential ,
and disinterested parties are not likely
to build them lor us. Let our business
men be fully awake to their best interests.
A young man named M. Houlihan ,
while in a beastly state of intoxication ,
Tuesday , claims to have been relieved
of $15 or $20 , in the Star Restaurant
on Main street , ( to the best of his be
fuddled memory , ) where he was put to
bed to sober up. W. J. Megrath , the
man who put him to bed was htispicion-
ed and subsequently arrested , but was
discharged shortly afterwards for want
of evidence against him. Houlihan
thinks no one is to blame but himself ,
or rather whiskey.
The suit brought by Stanton Rolla
against Joseph Dudek , before Squire
Colvin , last Friday , resulted in a ver
dict for Mr. Dudek. The suit was in
stituted by Rolla to recover damages
from Dudek , who was wintering some
stock for the former , part of the num
her having died during the winter.
The case occupied Friday and Monday
in its hearing , a large number of wit
nesses being heard on both sides. The
ease attracted considerable attention.
HELD UP Adolph Weis , a young
tender-foot , who arrived in the city ,
Monday night , was shortly after his ar
rival , "held up" by an unknown indi
vidual , somewhere in the vicinity of the
depot , and relieved of all the spare
change he had on his person. The
foot-pad made his escape and has not
been apprehended. Suspicion falls
upon a curly-headed gambler who has
infested this city for some time , who
previous to the affair was "dead broke , "
but who bobbed up serenely shortly
thereafter quite flush , but nothing pos
itive is known , and the guilty party will ,
in all human probability never be ascer
tained.
A firm doing business without keep
ing a set of books is like a ship sailing
without a compass. Whilst the sun of
prosperity shine they may hope to reach
a haven of safety. But once let the
dark clouds of adversity obscure the
the sky , and the chances are that they
will be wrecked. Therefore , as a sail
ing master would not attempt to navi
gate without a compass , his infallible
guide , no more should a business house
neglect to keep a proper set of books ,
for its guidance. In this connection ,
we beg to call attention to the adv. of
Mr. H. T. Anderson , ( a thoroughly
practical book-keeper of many years'
experience , ) elsewhere in our columns ,
and to state that he is prepared to open ,
keep and adjust the books of any and
all who may be in need of such services.
AN ELEGANT HEARSE The latter
part of last week , Messrs. Ludwick &
Trowbridge of the Great Western Fur
niture Emporium received their hearse ,
concerning which mention has been made
in this paper heretofore. The hearse is
one of the Rock Falls Manufacturing
Co.'s finest make , and would be a credit
to any city. It has octagon front and
back , with heavy mouldings , French
plate glass sidesdoorsand sliding front
ventilators ; is painted black , with wheels
and body gold striped. Inside trim
mings of black cashmere , with curtains
of English black cloth , with gold bul
lion fringe and heavy gold tassels. The
inside nails , pins , door handlesetc. , arc
silver plated , and the hearse throughout
is a model of taste and beauty. Mr.
Miller , who looks after the undertaking
department of the establishment , will
have charae of the hearse.
FOR SALE OR TRADE.
A fine , young team of draft horses ,
harness and wagon. Will sell cheap for
cash or trade for town property. In

A HAPPY HIT.
o
The audience which greeted Eli Per
kins upon his first appearance in our
city , Tuesday evening , was the most de
lighted and highly pleased and enter
tained one that has ever assembled
within the walls of the Opera Hall.
Mr. Perkins handled his subject in such
a masterly , unexpected manner , yet
withal so engagingly and wiih such
earnestness , simplicity and ease , as to
captivate his audience at the outstart ,
and to carry it through a lecture of over
two hours' duration , without any signs
of uneasiness or fatigue. A lecture re
plete with philosophical thought , em
bellished and enlivened at proper inter
vals with flashes of wit and sparkling
humor. He marshalled his hosts in ad
mirable style , and touched upon some
current , every-day fallacies with sur
prising vigor and logic. His lecture
was received throughout with every
sign of appreciation and cnjoywent ,
such as to insure him a hearty welcome
should he ever return to our city.
A $15OOO GRIST MILL.
o
We take unusual delight in announc
ing the fact that we are to have a $15-
000 grist mill erected iu our city. The
contract for the erection of a mill to
cost the above amount has been signed
by B. B. Duckworth of the Beaver , the
same to be complete and in running
order by October next. The mill will
be built east of town on the north side
of the track , a brick structure , to be
fitted up with the latent improved ma
chinery of the roller process. $2,00l )
was raised in little over an hour by our
enterprising citizens and donated to as
sist this worthy enterprise , which will be
one of the most valuable ones ever un
dertaken in our city. Lack of space for
bids our entering more fully into this im
portant matter this week.
THE CALICO SOCIAL.
The calico social held at the Opera
House , Monday evening , was a delight
ful affair , and was participated in and
heartily enjoyed by a unanimous turn-out
of our young people. The music for the
evening was furnished by the Musical
Union , and the zest with which the light
fantastic was gracefully tripped by our
fair ladies and gallant men showed their
appreciation of its excellence and inspir
ation. The supper , prepared by the
ladies of the Episcopal Guild , was such
as to tickle the palate of the most con
firmed epicure. That the ladies of the
Guild know how to project and manage
such affairs , and the public to patronize ,
the handsome little sum realized there
from clearly indicates.
