RAPIDLY IMPROVING--On. Tuesday
R. H. Williams' little daughter had s <
far recovered from the operation oi
tracheotomy recently performed on hei
by Drs. Kay and Davis , that it was fount
advisable to-rcmove the tube from tlu
little girl's trachea , and she is now doing
remarkably well and may be declaret
out of danger. The operation was :
delicate , hazardous one , scarcely evei
resorted to even in extremest cases , and
its result has been watched with greal
interest by this entire community , whc
will congratulate the family and sur
geons upon what bids fair to be a favor
able termination.
A full line of hardware , stoves and
tinware at C. D. Palmer's.
Yesterday morning , the fractious ,
high-spirited quadruped that supplies
the motive power to Kendall's bread
wagon , became altogether too fleet and
unmanageable , while being driven up
West Dennison street , in the course of
the customary bread delivery , and en
in another neith
gaged go-as-you-please ,
er interesting nor entertaining to the
driver , Em. Kendall , who was thrown
out of the vehicle and fortunately but
slightly injured , while the wagon was
inverted and otherwise misused during
the short , but exciting chase. That
steed's recent escapades doubtless fit it
for the cumbersome dray wagon , where
it will behave with greater "safety to
driver and profit to owner.
J. C. Allen & Co. are just receiving
a car load of groceries , this week.
At a meeting of the members of the
Congregational church , last Sunday
morning , the resignation of the pastor ,
Rev. Joel S. Kelsey , tendered a short
time since , was NOT accepted by a unan
imous vote. We take excusable pleas
ure in this connection in stating that
admiring friends have taken the matter
of pastor's salary in hand , and that the
required amount , ( lacking a small sum ,
which will doubtless be covered through
nther agencies , ) has been subscribed , and
that Rev. Kelsey will remain in this field
of labor , where his efforts give promise
af such glad fruition. The congregation
[ ire to be congratulated. C.F. Babcock
was also elected to the trusteeship made
vacant by resignation of E. M. Brickey ,
who lately removed from our midst.
Don't fail to see that line of elegant
beaters at W. C. LaTourette & Go's.
From an announcement appearing
slsewhere in this issue , our readers will
learn of another enterprise to be added
io the city's industries , in the co-partner
ship lately entered into between C. T.
Brewer and F. S. Wilcox in the buteher
md packing business. These gentlemen
iiave secured the cellar under McMillen
S : Weeks' drug store for the packing
> ranch of their business , which will be
: arried on as extensively during the
iviuter as their present slaughter house
iccommodations and the disposal of
r'waste' ' will allow. They contemplate
lacking a thousand porkers , this season.
Both members of the firm are shrewd
tnd enterprising business men , with
iniple means to carry the project to a
iuccessful issue , and the flattering re
mits can hardly be questioned.
J. C. Allen & Co. carry the re-
lowned California Honey in stock.
Under the familiar caption , "He Was
iBank Cashier , " yesterday's Tribune-
lepublican gives currence to a highly
ensational and absolutely false and
mreliable article involving a well-known
haracter named G. R. Wynkoop , who
pent some time in this locality months
go. It appears that a tin horn gambler
lamed Collins and a faro dealer named
? hompson engaged in a quarrel , in which
Jollins was severely stabbed , and that
Vynkoop was witness to the affray , and
ras held in custody for that purpose ,
lo far the account seems to be correct ,
'resently the cute reporter imagines he
iscovers a "brilliant mare's nest , " in
rhich Wynkoop is "a crooked cashier
f the First National bank of this city ,
tc. " Among the veracious ( ? ) state
ments being that , a "former cashier of
fie bank , owing to some slight discrep-
ncies , decided to locate in Canada. "
Pe have not space to devote to the
latter further than to suggest the un-
jrtunate circumstance that the worth-
; ss trio did not succeed in the work of
tter annihilation. However , every
llusion made to the First National bank
f this city is false in toto and without
) undation in fact. A bandage of ice
lould allay that reporter's feverish
nagination.

SUPERB QUARTERS.
Monday < f this week , The Frees &
Hocknell Lumber Co. moved into their
new quarters in the brick structure just
completed for their reception , on the
site of their old and humbler quarters
on South Main Avenue. We will-not
again enter into a lengthy description
of tho building , epitomizing into the
incontrovertible statement , after a thor
ough inspection , that they have the most & \
convenient , comfortable and tho best
equipped lumber office in Nebraska.
The lower story is sub-divided into three
compartments , each fully furnished with.
reference to its particular purpose , the * ,
rear one , from which the spacious , fire- J
proof vault is-entered , bein ; * the private
office ot President Hocknell. The up- , \j ? '
per floor contains office rooms en suite , v-
the rear ones being now occupied by '
Morlan & Cochran , for whom they wtre J
specially designed. The firm have fur- |
nished them handsomely and elegantly j
and can safely claim appointments un
surpassed in this part of the state. The * )
entire building is heated by steam , it !
being perhaps the first and only steam
heating apparatus in the Valley. It is
fl. great economizer of fuel , needs little
attention , works like a charm , and Mr.
Hocknell -highly pleased therewith.
C. IT. Meeker put the same in. The
building is the handy work of Contrac
tor Collins. The company and city are i
to be congratulated in the completion of
the Hocknell brick.
