THIRTEENTH YEAR. McCOUK , RED WILLOW COUNTY NEBRASKA FRIDAY EVENING DEC. 7 , 1894. . NUMBER 29 ,

THE SOCIAL WHIRL.
Business Depression Enlivened by
Simple Social Gayety.
While the wheels of commerce and
trade , lacking the oil that "makes the
mare go , " squeak and creak in their
sluggish , fitful progress , McCook's social
i , life has taken on quite a vigorous motion ,
which gives most enlivening promise of
'driving dull care away during the com-
d ing season of hibernation and business
stagnation. Quite a number of smart
little parties have already given a bright
bit of coloring to our social life , and the
horizon is one of promise.
TEE TRIBUNE will endeavor to give
these cloud-tinting affairs , these cobweb
'
, erasers , such merited treatment as its information -
formation will warrant. Any facts along
this line will be thankfully received.
IiIGE FIVE.
Mayor and Mrs. J. E. Kelley enters -
s tuned a large company of friends at
their cosy home , last Friday evening , in
t a very felicitous fashion , at high five.
Refreshments were served at 6:30 , and
the hostess is to be congratulated upon
t the pretty style in which the inviting
' edibles were served. Progressive high
five was played until Io:3o , when the
prizes were sold at auction-Messrs. B.
F. Troxel and C. W. Barnes gaining lau-
Tels as sale criers. This unique method
' of distributing favors had the distinct
advantage of giving everybody a prize.
Mr. Orville Burnett , however , secured
1 the principal prize on a bid of four beans.
It was withal one of the cleverest social
events in many moons. The guests were
Mr. and Mrs. C. F. Babcock , W. S. Mor-
. Ian , Jacob Burnett , F. M. Kimmell , S.
' B. Strasser , Orville Burnett , C. M. Noble ,

Miss Maud Doan entertained a small
company of friends , last Saturday evening -
ing , in honor of Misses Lou Beardslee
' and Clara Happersett of Indianola , who
were guests of McCook friends a few
1 days close of last week.
A social dancing club , similar to those
i that have obtained such favor in our city
in the past , is being organized to give a
series of dances for its members during
,
the winter.
A Tale of Three Emigrants.
' Three emigrants were up before Squire
Berry , last Friday afternoon , charged
( with stealing some baled hay from a
farmer named Bongars who lives near
town on the south side. One of the trio
was too sick , it was claimed , to appear
in court-having been confined to his
wagon for two or three days. One of the
other two pleaded guilty. Both were
found guilty and assessed $ z fine and
costs , which they were unable to pay ,
and they were booked for the county
jail. While Marshal Bump was after the
horses of the gang to secure the costs in
the case , it was discovered that the sick
man of the outfit had taken the best
horse and hurriedly vamoosed the coun-
try. While Deputy Sheriff Babcock was
preparing to take the precious pair to
1 Indianola they succeded in escaping vig-
ilence of the officer and likewise' skipped
the tra-la-loo. And thus endeth the
first chapter.
But that isn't all.
A few days since H. w. Cole's drivin g
horse was discovered to be absent from
Frank Stillman's pasture , just east o f
town. The horse upon which the sic k
man sought to leave the country wa s
found dead near Stillman's pasture fenc e
with its throat cut by barb wire. Th e
supposition is that the sick man too k
Mr. Cole's horse on which to continue
his flight. And thus the tale concludet h
for the present at least.
- Must Pay Up.
-
All bills must be paid between th e
first and fifteenth of each month , other -
wise no credit will be given.

A California Letter.
SANTA ANA , CAL. , Nov. 3oth.
F. Di. KiMMELL , McCook , Neb.
Dear -Believing that a few lines
from Southern California might interest
some of your readers , I will write a short
letter which you may publish in your
columns. It has been just four months
since we reached our journey's end , and
the greater portion of that time we have
spent in exploring the Pacific coast and
the various mountain ranges of Southern
California. We have visited numerous
beach and mountainresorts , Spanish mis-
sions'over a hundred years old , and had
a general good time fishing , hunting ,
bathing , boating and eating fruit. We
have now settled down to business andd
feel much encouraged over our future
prospects. But as time goes on and we
realize that winter is just upon us , we
cannot help but feel that nature has
somewhat disarranged the seasons , for
instead of vegetation of all kinds losing
its foliage and preparing for its blanket
of snow , it is just beginning to take on
new life and is becoming greener and
more beautiful than it was in the midst
of summer. The farmers are beginning
to plow and sow , while their wives are
busy making garden and setting hens.
They lose no time in taking up the beautiful -
tiful flowers and housing them , for fear
of their freezing , but they simply cut a
few feet offof the geranium hedges , in
order to be able to see over the top of
them , and climb to the roof of the house
and remove the mass of roses that thereof
roof may take in a little sunshine.
In selecting Orange county for our future -
ture home we feel that we have made no
mistake. We have made a thorough
canvass of the state from San Francisco
to San Diego , a distance of about 700
miles along the coast , and from what
we have seen and old settlers have told
us , we do not hesitate to say that Orange
county has far better advantages to offer
to all classes of people than any other
county we have visited. No where can
there be a more reliable irrigation system -
tem than in this county. Besides a fine
surface water supply , a great portion of
the best farm land is underlaid with a
a fine artesian Water system , and can be
had upon a farm at a depth of 75 to 400
feet and at a cost of $ Ioo to $100. This
county has a large area of good agricultural -
tural land lying along the coast and consequently -
sequently needs but little moisture to
produce a fine crop. This an advantage
that other localities do not possess , and
while many other counties are entirely
dependent upon their fruit crop , Orange
county has other resources to fall back
on in case of a failure of the fruit crop.
General farming , stock raising , and especially -
pecially the dairy business all tend to
make up for any failure that may at any
time occur in the fruit product.
The fruit orchards are a very pleasing
sight to the visitor. The season is now
about over for a greater portion of the
fruits , yet the markets are well supplied
with a full assortment of peaches , plums ,
prunes , pears , apricots , grapes , apples ,
nectarines and quinces ; they have all
been selling at one cent per pound delivered -
livered at your door ; all kinds of berries
at four cents per quart ; dried peaches ,
apricots , apples , etc. , at 64 cents per
pound.
Poultry raising is quite an industry
here , chickens selling at $2.50 to $3.75
per dozen and eggs at 25 to 30 cents per
dozen. Good mulch cows range in price
from $50 to $75. Butter is 25 to 30 cents
per pound. Feed is very high this year
on account of the dry weather ; alfalfa
hay is selling for $ io per ton , barley hay
at from $12 to $15 per ton. Pumpkins
are a very profitable crop and are a staple -
ple feed , even for horses ; they bring $2.50
per ton and will yield from ten to twenty
ton per acre , some of them weighing 200
pounds. They are generally planted afte r
the other crop has been harvested. A s
all of the 12 months are good growing
weather it is a very easy matter to grow
two crops on the same land in one year.
We are now using new potatoes-th e
second crop this year-which are selling
at 75 cents per hundred pounds.
Yesterday was Thanksgiving day and
we put aside our work and did justice t °
the occasion. At twelve o'clock we too k
our places around a very interesting to
ble loaded with roast turkey and all th e
various kinds of fruits and vegetable s
that could find room thereon , the veg -
setables being fresh from the garden.
We had scarcely finished our dinne r
when a special messenger arrived notifying
fying us of a grand free excursion o
Newport Beach over the Santa Ana an d
Newport railroad. Well , we hardly fel t
equal to the occasion , but as we neve r
did allow ourselves to miss anythin g
ge
that was free , we at once accepted th e
invitation and joined the merry crow d
of about 3,000 , spending the balance o
the day gathering shells , fishing , an d
basking in the sunshine on the beach
The happy excursionists returned home
in the evening well pleased with tin
day's recreation and pleasures.
AN EVEN DOZEN MCCooEITES.
. . .
Our Open Hearts and Hands.
The package donation , Monday evening -
ing , at the Methodist church , for the
benefit of the pastor , was a success in
every way. At the appointed time the
congregation and friends began to assemble -
semble , each one bringing something to
add to the stock of donations. A large
company gathered , filling the church to
its utmost capacity. The evening was
spent in a very social way ; there was
some singing and a few remarks by the
pastor. A free lunch was served which
added much to the enjoyment of the
occasion , impressing the fact upon the
minds of all present that the Methodists
know how to make an evening pleasant
and enjoyable. Almost every article -
cle necessary for the maintenance of a
family was included in the donations ,
and when everything was gathered up
it presented the appearance of a stock
for a general store. Including the purse
of money , and some coal that was
not brought into the church , the total
value of the donations amounted to
about one hundred dollars. Such a donation -
nation to such a cause speaks volumes
for the good people of McCook. It
shows that they are deeply interested
in the religious welfare of our city. It
is doubly appreciated by the pastor because -
cause it not only has an intrinsic value ,
but represents fellowship and interest in
the cause of the Master. May God's
blessing rest upon the donors. XX.
Crowell-Evans.
Last Thursday evening , at the borne
of the bride's parents , Captain and Mrs.
W. J. Evans , in Red Willow precinct ,
William E. Crowell and Mary E. Evans
were duly joined in wedlock by Rev. D.
L. McBride in the presence of a goodly
company of relatives and friends.
A splendid wedding feast followed the
ceremony which was heartily enjoyed by
everybody.
The young couple were handsomely
remembered as the following list o f
presents indicates :

rler of Marshall and Dodge streets.
A Sad Case.
The sudden and unexpected death o f
Mrs. Hawkins up in Coleman precinct ,
Thanksgiving morning disclosed a painful -
ful state of affairs as existing in that
household. It appears that Hawkins
has left the family , and the death of the
mother leaves an infant of a few weeks
and two daughters , i6 and S years o f
age respectively , on this unfriendly
world and in destitute circumstances.
The remains of the poor woman were
interred at Zion Hill Methodist church
up in Coleman precinct on last Friday.
This case should be carefully investigated -
gated and suitable aid rendered the bereaved -
reaved and well-nigh helpless girls.

Will You Buy Wood.
EDITOR TRIBUNE.--With nearly a total -
tal failureof crops in Red Willow comity
during the past two years , it has become
a very serious matter with many of our
best farmers as to vow they will get
through the winter.
I would like to offer a few suggestions
to the people of your city on the fuel
question , which , if carried out , would be
a great benefit to many of our farmers ,
and would' not be detrimental to the
consumers.
In conversation with one of your leading -
ing coal dealers , a few days ago , he informed -
formed me that there was annually sent
out of McCook to Colorado and other
states not less than $ i5oou for coal. This
money is taken out of circulation in this
vicinity and goes to benefit the people
where our dealers get their supplies.
During the past three weeks 1 have
been looking up the probable wood sup.
ply that could be made available within
a radius of fifteen miles of vour city , and
I am perfectly satisfied that if the farmers -
ers could find a ready sale for their wood
at a fair price , there would be at least
seven or eight thousand dollars worth
cut and delivered in your city within the
nest ninety days. This money would
go into circulation here at home and
would be of great benefit to all classes
of people. The objection may be raised
that wood will not go as far as coal. In
the past two years I have thoughtfully
tested this matter with different kinds
of coal , and I know from personal experience -
rience that when I have invested my
money in an honest cord of wood it has
gone further than a like amount iii-
vested in coal. I am aware of the fact
that we have some dishonest farmers
who have done more to injure the wood
trade in your city than all other sources
put together. I have seen them throw
into their wagon , loosely , what they
called a cord of wood , when in reality if
it was properlycorded it would not make
more than half a cord. Many of your
people have been imposed upon and are
justly indignant over this kind of treatment -
ment , and some of them refnset to buy
wood and have gone back to burning
coal again.
There is another feature to this question -
tion that must not be overlooked. Mc _
Cook has a number of honorable men
employed in the coal trade , and we must
not do anything to cripple them if we
can possibly avoid it. Now if your merchants -
chants and business men will take hold
of this matter in earnest , talk it up with
their city customers , go to your coal
merchant and tell him that you are going -
ing to burn wood this winter. With this
encouragement on your part I believe
the coal dealers would be willing to open
wood yards in connection with their coal
yards , and buy the farmers' wood as it
comes to your city. This would put a
check on the dishonest farmers who parade -
rade your streets endeavoring to defraud
your citizens with their half cord loads.
The wood merchant could insist on hop
est measurement and good quality , anal
the consumer would then get value received -
ceived for his money.
I desire also in this article to call the
attention of our county comnussioners
to this subject. Within the next ninty
days they will be called upon to furnish
hundreds if not thousands of dollars
worth of fuel to our worthy poor , and
why not , for the same reasons as given
above , furnish them with wood instead
of coal. A FARSIER.
