NORTH DIVIDE NUBBINS.
DEAR EDITOR : Seeing nothing in THE
TRIBUNE from this locality , why not try and
liven up matters with a few items , now that
the crops look so encouraging and the people
in general seem to be more or less communi
cative. INTRODUCTORY.
To begin with North Divide has the distinc
tion of being a very "way up" place for the
right kind of people. In distance it is sup
posed to be about five miles north of McCook.
but were the Standard measurement of 320
rods to the mile to be used we are afraid that
Standard would have to be changed and some
what lengthened to better compare with the
miles of this never rain country. North Di
vide is a place where everything seems to
flourish. Why one of our neighbors ( who , by
the way , is gifted with a good-natured flow of
language ) remarked the other day that he had
weeds enough to make him rich if they were
worth anything. And then how the snakes
and frogs have taken possession of the by
ways. A young lady not far from here while
out picking Mulberries , the other morning ,
came very near putting her dainty little fin
gers in the rosy mouth of a not very small
rattle snake that was perched among the
branches and feasting on nice juicy berries ;
while not long before this bit of pleasure this
same young lady soon after she had retired
for the night was heard to call loudly tor her
"big" sister and frantically exclaimed that a
frog had fallen on her from the ceiling. Of
course it took a long time to find the matches ,
and let us say before we go further that it
did rain that evening , and when the matches
were found they were all wet. So it happened
the man of the house was prevailed upon to
bring forth light and that immediately. Now
the man , by the way , had been working with
unwonted vigor all day , and all the fleas in the
county evidently bad sought refuge under
his roof , besides the supports of his cot had
sunken into the ground so that ho was not
resting very peacefully.but after summoning
his wits together he did have a dim recollec
tion of a broken lucifer in his last years
seersucker vest and by its half inch of flicker
ing light the frog in Question turned out to bo
big , bleary-eyed , worty toad ! And so we
might continue in this weary strain expound
ing the rare advantages of this community
but let us hasten to remark that North Divide
lacks among its other attainments good look
ing young ladies and rational young men.
The North Divide Union Sunday School was
organized about six years ago with W. X.
Johnson of this place and W. S. Hanlein of
Bartley its only officers , and while it sessions
have not been held continuously since that
time still the good it has accomplished has
certainly manifested itself.
The Sunday school was re-organized about
flvo weeks ago with YV. X. Johnson as super
intendent and Miss Matie Johnson as secre
tary , while M. S. Brown , Mrs. W. X. Johnson ,
Miss Emma Hanlein and Mrs. J. M. Hendor _
son are its class leaders.
Rev. H. H. Berry of McCook discourses to a
large congregation every two "weeks and we
highly appreciate and hope to retain Brother
Berry's presence among us.
And now In conslusion we hope we may bo
able to send in a few items from time to time
and try and gladden the hearts of tbo editor
for by so doing we may be able to convince
the world at largo that North Divide is alive
and awake to her best interests. CONNIE.

Our hearts felt the magical pulsing ,
Of the balmy , mystical hour.
Up from the grasses beneath us.
Down from tbo foliage above ,
Borne on the wings of the zephyr ,
Laughed the gay spirits of love ,
Heart spoke to heart In the silence ,
With fervor in look and in kiss ;
Coursed through our veins the hot current
Of thrilling and rapturous bliss.
Sweet is the rapture that tbrilletb ,
While treading tha maze of the dance ;
Or sitting at night In the parlor ,
While quaffing the light of her glance ;
But for rapture and pleasure .unrivaled ,

Oh I give me a stroll in the woodland ,

FEATHERS FOR FINERY. \
They Are in Greater Demand Than ji
Ever Before. I
i
The Various Uses to Which They Are P *
and the I'roce by Which Th r
Are Prepared for the
Market.
The present trade in ostrich f eathertf
is almost unprecedented. For a num
ber of years the demand was so small
that the raising of the ostrich decreased
to the extent of forty per cent. , and
feather workers had to turn their
attention to other channels of industry.
But now the demand for skilled labor
far exceeds the supply. During the
spring and summer manufacturers were
seriously embarrassed by the lack of
competent help.
A glance at women's toilets just
now , says the New York Sun , is suf
ficient to explain the unusual demand.
Hats are piled with feathers. Ope
shown in a Broadway jobbing house
supported forty-two tips. Bonnets are
edged with bands and trimmed with
clusters of various size ; boas und colla
rettes of every length , thickness and col-
orare shown in all the millinery , dress
making , and dry-goods houses , and re
cent importations of costumes disclose
the fact that not only are cloaks , wraps
and jackets trimmed with feathers , but
gowns also. Carriage cloaks have huge J
yokes , collars and cuffs of feathers , sup
plemented with wide bands of the same _
bordering the front and lower edge.
Frequently they are faced inside , some '
distance from the front edge , with os
trich feathers , the fronts being- rolled
back from a tight-fitting vest. In
cluded in the decoration of jackets and
gowns is the wide Medici collar , cov
ered with feathers. Even in ball dresses
the delicate fabrics are festooned around
the feet and fastened to other parts of
the skirt with bunches of tips ; long- '
plumes are coiled about the upper parfc
of the arm to take the place of a sleeve ,
while others garnish the corsage.
Perhaps more than one-half of the
feathers used in America are imported
in the natural state and prepared here.
South Africa is the principal breeding'
place of the ostrich. Ostrich farms have
been started in Australia and San Diego
County , Cal. , but the supply of feathers
from these sources sent to the New
York market is scarcely preceptible.
The great distributing market is Lon
don , where auction sales are held every
other month and attended - !
, are by buy-
crs from all parts of the world. Feathers
sell from fifteen to one hundred
and fifty dollars a pound , the highest I
price representing "blood primes"
leathers taken from the wings and tail
of the male bird when four or five years I
old. The plumage of the female bird
is considered less choice than that of
the male. At the present tune values ,
in all grades are fifty per cent , in ex-
cets of those prevailing for several /
years.
The past season was so prosperous I
that many manufacturers in this city-
employed between four and five hun
dred hands most of the time since last
April. A feather manufactory is not a ,
very inviting place , with great vatsr ; '
sloppy floors , intense heat , and steam ,
but the work is interesting through the
heroic measures necessary to evolve
from the feather in its natural state the
dainty thing of beauty. In the natural
state most of the feathers are of a dirty
gray color , shading to black , and are of
all lengths from three to perhaps
twelve or more inches. The quill is
thick , and the flew ( the curly part )
fitrafrrht and lnstr lnKS.
The rnrlrr !
shades are sorted for black feathers ,
and the lighter for those of colored
tints , tied in bunches of about a couple
of dozen , and strung a few inches apart
in sections about one and one-half yards
in length. To remove the natural oil
the feathers are soaked for several
hours in a strong solution of soda and
soap , and then scrubbed and thoroughly
rinsed. Those for light colors are
bleached with chemicals before being
dyed , but those for black arc only subJected - /
Jected to a triple dip in jet dye. Shaded I
feathers are made by inclosing parts in.
rubber shields after the solid color has
been acquired , and dipping them in a
contrasting dye and combing while wet.
They are dried out of doors and in the
sun if possible , and in a room where the
thermometer registers 150 degrees.
After the starching and another drying ,
each string of feathers is beaten against
wooden tables , or partitions , to remove
superfluous starch. So violent Is this-
process that one expects to see the-
plumes fall apart in a hundred or more
pieces. The only effect , however , of
the rough usage is to make them look
clearer and fluffier than ever. At this
point the work , which thus far has been
done by men , is turned over to women ,
who , in another part of the factory , be
gin the more delicate operations.
Feathers of all hues , in different stages
of development , are scattered over long-
tables. The bunches are separated , ana
the quill of each feather is scraped
thin by a bit of glass. Afterward they
are sewed together to form the various
designs , steamed over boilers having-
numerous spouta , and curled with an
implement like the blade of an ordinary
jockknife. Although apparently sim
ple the task requires considerable skill
to avoid breaking the flew. Long- '
plumes , boas and collarettes are only
slightly curled , the ordinary tip more
so , while those called "Princess , " and
the narrow bands for the edges of hats }
and bonnets , are curled in fine tight j
curls. Preparatory to boxing- , the tips
are bunched and marked , the longer
feathers , boas , etc. , having separate
boxes.
Laat of the Lincoln Hearse Horse * .
A local celebrity recently died after
a kind , useful life of thirty-eight years ,
says the Indianapolis Journal. Ttfc
name was Jesse , and the one act which
entitled him to mention was participa
tion in the funeral
cortege of the mar
tyred Lincoln. He was the last of the
six white horses which drew the hearse
Containing the honored body along the
streets of Indianapolis. His mate In
