We beg pardon , Colonel. We had

There is some discussion to be
heard on our streets and in the
stores now that our public schools
may not be opened for the fall term
on account of the delinquent state
of our school district finance. The
district is considerably in arrears
now , and there is quite a backward
tendency noticeable in the matter
of paying taxes , this year , which
further complicates the financial
condition. Wliile we do not think
it will come to such an unfortunate
pass , yet the matter is the occasion
of some sober thought among those
interested'in the schools-which ,
by the by , comprehends a large
portion of our people.
Preparations are making for the

St. Virgilius Catholic church of
our city was crowded to the door ,
and many failed to secure admittance -
tance , Tuesday morning of this
week , by the multitude anxious
and eager to witness the marriage
of Charles Lehn of McCook and
Mary Kessler of Indianola. The
ceremony commenced at 10 o'clock
and was performed in all its sacred
solemnity by Rev. Bernard Sproll.
The bride was charmingly attired
in a very handsome wedding garment -
ment , and the groom looked every
inch the clever little gentleman
that he is. The church's interior
was handsomely decorated for the
auspicious event. The choir , under
the direction of Mrs J.W.Dolanad-
ded a large and delightful element
to the solemnity of the occasion.
A wedding dinner followed at the
residence of the bride's parents
three miles south of here , at
which only the relatives of the
interested parties participated.
After a short wedding trip the
happy couple will be at home ,
after next Monday , in the little cottage -
tage % t 405 Marshall street , Mc-
Cook , which has been placed in
readiness for their reception by the
groom. A host of friends join us
in best wishes for the prosperity
of the youg people.

Mrs. Vivian is still afflicted with rheu-
matism. She does not stein to get much
better , and has to go on crutches all the
time.
Last Sunday morning brought a very
large congregation to church. Extra
seats had to be placed in the aisles.
This speaks well for the people of this
vicinity. They are cliurch-goers , which
makes good society.
Last Sunday rnorning twenty-five persons -
sons were baptized in the church by the
pastor , E J. Vivian. It was very pleasing -
ing to see strong men and women come
forward and receive the ordinance of
baptism , thus confessing their Saviour
to the world.
Mr. G. W. Swiggart of Lena , Neb.and
Miss Lydia Worth of Red Willow county
were married on the 15th at Mr.ViBiam
Doyle's residence , by Rev. E. J. Vivian.
Mr. Swiggart is a successful cattleman
of Grant county. The bride is a noble
Christian woman , a member of the Baptist -
tist church. Of course we all wish the
happy couple a very successful life over
the sea of time.
Special meetings were held in the M
E. church last Sunday and Monday
nights for prayer to ask a kind Heavenly -
ly Father who controls all things to
grant unto the people the necessary rain
to produce a crop. Some people may
laugh at this ; but the writer's conviction
is that if the people would quit their
meanness and sins God would send upon
the people all needed blessings.
We are very sorry so many of our people -
ple are preparing to leave because of the
very dry weather. Mr. Shank and family -
ily leave this week for Missouri. Mr.
John Millerandfamilyleave for Friend ,
this state. Others will be leaving soon
unless we have rain. The people were
never so sadly afflicted as now : so many
do not know what to do. If they leave
they do not know where to go , and if
they stay they see nothing but starvation -
tion unless rain should come to give
them a crop.
