FOURTEENTH YEAR. McCOUK } RED WILLOW COUNTY , NEBRASKA , FRIDAY EVENING , DECEMBER 20 , 1895. NUMBER 3t. :
A GRATIFYING SUCCESS
A
Was the Masquerade Ball by the
Pythian Brigade Band on
' , Tuesday Evening.
The grand masquerade ball given in
the Menard opera house on Tuesday
evening , tinder auspices of the Nebraska
Brigade Band , Uniform Raitk , Knights
of Pytliias , called together a numerous
and brilliant company of people and is
pronounced one of the most successful
and delightful balls ever held in the city ,
Ttlere was a large display of varied cos-
tunics , some of them very pretty ; but
the ludicrous predominated. As usual
there were many spectators who seemed
to enjoy the spectacle scarcely less than
the costumed participants.
The music was provided by the Py-
thian orchestra , and that means was of
a high glade of excellence and an inspiration -
spiration to the dancers.
Prizes were given those esteemed to
have the most unique costumes : ' Mrs.
Tom Wilkinson was awarded the lady's
prize , and Mr. George Mason the gen-
tleman's prize.
The affair throughout was a very creditable -
itable one , reflecting advantageously upon -
on the efforts of the band to do the
proper thing , as well as increasing the
gold reserve in the bank to the band's
credit.
The parade by the Pythian band en
costume , Tuesday noon , drew a large
811(1 highly amused following.
THETRiBUNE desires to congratulate
Prof. Sutton and his fellow musicians of
the Nebraska Brigade upon the success
ful issue of their ball from both social
and financial points of view.
,
Boll Your Drinking Water.
In view of the fact that there are and
have been a number of typhoid fever
cases in the city , the advisability of boiling -
ing the drinking water has been suggested -
gested to us , and we have been urged. to
press the probable importance of such
action upon the people of the city.
While such analyses made of the city
water have not disclosed the existence
pf typhoid fever bacilli or germs in the
e'-r water , yet it is considered advisable under -
der the circumstances and facts to boil
such water as is used for drinking purposes -
poses in the city.
We will add on our own motion that
cleanliness and lime may be good things
to go with boiled water. That is , keep
your premises clean and sprinkle lime
where it will do the most good.
The Maccabees Entertain.
There was a large and delighted gath-
erihg in the Maccabee lodge , last night.
The occasion was the celebration of the
re-election of the present popular Lady
Commander , Mrs. F. S. Wilcox. There
were about one hundred present , including -
ing guests and members. Cards and
games were the instruments of entertain-
.nent. In the progressive high five playing -
, ing the lady's and gentleman's prizes
were won respectively by Mrs. L. B.
Stiles and Mr. C. W. Bronson. Toothsome -
some refreshments were served. It was
a notably pleasing and happy affair.
A "Scale" Recital :
The pupils of Mrs. E. E. Utter indulged -
dulged in a "Scale" recital at her home
and studio , last Monday evening , which
was a very interesting and enjoyable affair -
fair throughout. Over 200 scales , vocal
and instrumental , had been prepared ,
and many of them were given. Besides
the music , games were played , and altogether -
gether a very felicitous evening was
passed by teacher , pupils and guests.
District Court.
Aunt equity term of the district court
will be held in Indianola , Monday next.
We understand that the session will not
exceed one day. There are 162 cases on
the civil list and 43 cases on the motion
docket. So the session will likely be
lively while it lasts.

propose to establish there if the prospects -
pects warrant.
W. T. BRICEEY of the Palisade Times
spent Tuesday here on some land business -
ness , and was not forgetful to make a
fraternal call at these headquarters. He
reports encouraging results from planting -
ing Jerusalem and Kaffir corn by farmers -
ers in his sectionand thinks such plants
should be given more attention by the
agriculturists of Southwestern Nebraska.
Both are well known for their capacity
to withstand dry weather and hot winds.
We hope to see the farmers of Red Willow -
low county plant an increasing acreage
to both of these species of corn.
DR. Z. L. KAY arrived home on 3 ,
Sunday night , from a business trip to
central South Dakota. Among other
points he visited in Plankintou , briefly ,
where he had , or thought he had , some
property interests. Upon his arrival
there , however , he found that an enterprising -
prising firm , of abstracters in that town
had sold a five-room dwelling on his city
property to a party three or four miles
out in the country , where the building
had been moved three or four months
since. All for the munificent sum of
about $60. . This same enterprising firm
of scamps had been pocketing the rental
and failed to pay the taxes. But when
the doctor's labors with them were completed -
pleted , the other fellows wished a thousand -
and times , more or less , that they had
quit their meanness before they became
the doctor's agent for that Plankinton
prcperty. The doctor's idea is that
South Dakota as a state has at least temporarily -
porarily gone to the demuition bowwows -
wows , and is for a large part in the undisputed -
disputed possession of the Russian thistle -
tle , which all over the state seem to
abound. The doctor left on Wednesday
for Kansas City , where he has business
that will detain him there until Christmas -

TIrE TRIBUNE will be deeply disappointed -
pointed if President Kelley does not rush
in to assistance of President Cleveland.
We understand that C. W. Knights is
thinking of going west and growing up
with the country in the Cripple Creek
country.
This has been an unusual year for typhoid -
phoid fever. The number of cases ,
though not large in total , has been Uncommon -
common for this locality.
McCook is furnishing her share of
wealth hunters in Cripple Creek. And
others are thinking hard about going
into the mad rush for fortunes.
Remember that Sutton has the most
extensive and elegant stock of Sterling
Silverware to be seen in the Republican
valley. Call and see and get his prices.
Nobody attempts to equal Sutton in
the display of Diamonds , It can't be
done in this part of Nebraska. A Diamond -
mend Ring would make a superb Xmas
present.
A Cincinnati daily states that our
"Snapper" Kennedy is likely to play in
the outfield for the Cincinnati reds , next
season. "Snapper is a fine batter and
base runner.
There seems to be a little petty thieving -
ing going on in the city ; and the hands
of the police are itching to get a 101(1 of
the perpetrators. There is grief ahead
for the culprits.
Sutton perhaps cannot tell you who
will be the next president of the United
States , but he can tell you what will ,
make her an acceptable present. Call
early while his assortment is full.
Truman C. Beardsley , optician , of
Omaha will be in McCook from Dec. 20
to 24 , at C. A. Leach's Jewelery store.
Defective vision corrected by the use of
glasses a specialty. Tests and consulta
tion free ; satiisfaction guaranteed.
You might as well get something substantial -
stantial and pretty while you are buying
Christmaspresents. At Sutton's jewelry
store you will have no difficulty in satisfying -
fying yonr taste as well as your pocket
book. He has many charming novelties
for the holiday season , especially
It is rumored that L. H. Rooney , who
has been in Cripple Creek for the past
few weeks , has struck it quite rich in a
mine there in which he has an interest.
We understand that he thinks the boom
has reached the top there , though fortune -
tune seekers are still rushing in by the
thousands weekly.
This gold mining fake business is cropping -
ping out all along the Republican river
valley. Observe , we state that the "fake
business" is coming to the surface , not
the much coveted "yellow stufF' . But
these little side shows are sadly silly emulations -
ulations of the great Cripple Creek craze ,
which bids fair to be a world beater.

A Fortunate Escape.
Indianola came near losing her new
Masonic Temple , Sunday afternoon ,
by fire. A stove , which was being
fired to dry the plastering , fell over-be-
ing unsteady on its legs-and the interior -
terior was damaged about $300 before
the fire was discovered and extinguished.
Quite a hole was burned in the floor
where the store stood , besides the building -
ing was damaged by smoke and water.
Though this misfortune will temporarily -
rily discommode and embarrass the Temple -
ple builders , yet they are heroically at
work repairing the loss , and announce
that they will dedicate the building on
the date already advertised-the 27th
day of December.
A complete program of the exercises
of the day appear elsewhere in this
issue. Time event will be a nmeutorable
one in the history of Southwestern Nebraska -
braska Masonry.

tractiveness and elegance of Sutton's
stock ofjewelry and silverware. It can't
be done in cold type. You must see the
goods. He will do the rest. In watches ,
jewelry of all kinds , silverware , etc. , his
stock has no equal in southwestern Ne-
braska.
All for One Dollar.
Wishing to reduce their large supply
of lard , the B. & M. meat market is selling -

Damaged by Fire.
The iie v Masonic temple at Indiauoht
was damaged by fire Sunday , December -
ber I5tlm.
The real damage to time Masonic tent-
pie will approximate 3oo.
There was 2,000 insurance on time
building in time Northm British & Mercantile -
cantile , but fears are entertained that
the company will refuse to pay time loss ,
for the reason time special permit of 30
days to complete the building has ex-
pired.
This will be very unfortunate , as the
association was already in debt in excess -
cess of the amount ( Inc ou.stock subscriptions -
scriptions and the real estate loan.
However , the damage will be repaired
as far as possible and time temple dedicated -
cated on the 27th ! , as advertised. We
trust that every Mason within a radius
of 5o uiiles will attend , also all friends
who are disposed to help us out at this
