NINETEENTH YEAR. McCOOK , RED WILLOW COUNTY , NEBRASKA , FRIDAY EVENING , JUNE 29 , 19OO. NUMBER 7
Stricken by Sunstroke.
While on his way home , Tuesday
evening from McCook , Ira J. Miller of
Red Willow precinct , this county , was
stricken down by the heat and died at
his home about eight miles north-east of
this city , Tuesday night about eleven
o'clock , never rallying or regaining con
sciousness.
' Mr. Miller left McCook about six
o'clock in the evening in his canopy-top
spring wagon for home in usual health.
L. A. Mansur rode with him as far as
'Michael Houlihan's farm , noticing noth-
'ing unusual in Mr. Miller's actions or
speech. Farther on he spoke to one of
the Sinsintaffer boys nothing wrong
being noticeable. At T. J. Ruggles'
'farm , still nearer Miller's farm , Ruggles'
boy noticed that Miller was reclining in
the seat of the wagon , one hand holding
the lines and the other grasping the rod
at the end of the seat ; at this point the
horses had gotten out of the road into a
-wheat field , but a little farther on they
regained the regular highway. A little
farther on , Jack Lytle noticed the same
condition of affairs , but thought there
was nothing wrong. At the Brown
farm , adjoining the Miller farm , T. H.
Brittain noted his position , and called
to him ; receiving" response to a second
call , he ran after the team , which was
trotting along in the road , and caught
them. Being unable to arouse Mr.
Miller , he got into the wagon and drove
the sick man to his home nearby.
Efforts were made to induce and main
tain circulation of the blood and to
'arouse the. unconscious man , but at
shortly before eleven he passed away.
It is said that the deceased has on a
number of different times lately com
plained of pain in his head.
' Funeral services were conducted in
the Methodist church of our city. Thurs
day afternoon , by Rev. J. A. Badcon ,
burial following in Riverview cemetery.
The services were largely attended by
neighbors and friends of the deceased , in
country and city.
Ira J. Miller was born in Noble coun
ty , Indiana , July 2Stb , 1844 , coming to
Nebraska in 1882 , and making Red Wil-
Jowcounty his home ever since.
A sister of the deceased arrived from
the east , on No. i , Thursday , and the
funeral was delayed until she could
drive up here from Indianola , where she
got off of the train thinking.the funeral
would be held at that place.
Drew a Crowd.
Cook's drum corps of Denver passed
through the city , last Sunday evening
on No. 5 , occupying two special cars of
that train. There were about 50 mem
bers in the drum corns , most of them be
I ) ing quite young. The corps was on its
way home to Denver from attending the
national Republican convention in Phil
adelphia , last week , an appearance and
trip made possible by the munificence of
W. S. Stratton of Independence mine
fame , a multi-millionaire of Cripple
Creek. The train remained here about
"a half hour , and the corps stirred the
hearts of quite a large gathering of people
ple who had assembled at the depot to
hear them.
Declared Game Off.
Arapahoe and Minden pla3'ed an ex
citing , hotly-contested game of base
ball in Arapahoe , Wednesday. The
game stood n to 11 in the rjth inning ,
when a row was raised over some sharp
work on the part of the Arapahoa team ,
.and the umpire finally left the field in
disgust and declared the game off. A
number of McCook boj's attended the
game , and they declare that it was fairly
Minden's game , but that they were
euchred out of it by sharp tricks.
To Larger Quarters.
James McAdams has rented the store
room formerly occupied by the Famous
Clothing Co. , and is having the room
overhauled and rearranged to accommo
date his business. The store-room now
occupied bv Mr. McAdarns will be util

The Teachers' Institute.
The annual institute for the teachers
of Red Willow county opened in tin
High school building , Monday morning
with Miss L. M. Welborn , county super
intendent , in charge. The opening at
tendance was good and very satisfactory
work has been done throughout the
week. The large attendance , Monday
made it possible to at once take up the
regular work of the institute. The spec
ial feature of Monday was the address
by Albert E. Davisson , professor of agri
cultural education and director of schoo"
of agriculture , Nebraska university. Mr.
Davisson made an excellent impression
with his instructive lecture on "Agricult
ural Education. "
Tuesday was occupied in its entirety
by the regular work of instruction as
per programme.
The regular work of Wednesday was
supplemented in the evening by Dr.
Charles Fordyce , dean of the Wesleyan
university , Lincoln , on "The Problem
of Fatigue. " He strongly urged the
necessity of more sleep , more rest , es
pecially in the lower grades , for the ac
coinplishinent of the best work. He ad
vocated more , rather than less or no in
termissions and recesses.
Wednesday's work was exclusively
regular programme.
The institute , on account of the sus
tained and great heat , was brought to a
close on Friday evening ; this left time
for the issuance of some certificates on
Saturday , the closing up of institute af
fairs , and allowed the country teachers
to reach their homes for Sunday.
Eleven branches were taught during
the institute , all the students taking all
the branches.
No tuition was charged.
The enrollment was nearly full , the
first day.
The instructors and branches taught
by each were : Dr. Charles Fordyce. dean
of Wesleyan university , Nature Study ,
Physiology , Primary Arithmetic and
Education , and Psychology. Supt.A.O.
Thomas of Minden , Primary Reading ,
Geography , Drawing and Pedagogy.
Supt. A. L. Caviness of Fairbury , His
tory , Civil Government , Grammar , and
Composition.
Many of the teachers accepted the
courtes\T of the Endeavorers and attend
ed their Good Time social on Tuesday
evening in the City park.
A. E. Davisson , professor of agricult
ural education and director of school of
agriculture , Nebraska university , was in
the city , Monday , and addressed the
members of the county teachers' institute
on "Agricultural Education. " While
here the professor arranged for appear
ance in the coluins of the newspapers of
the city articles along the line of agri
cultural education.
A Stltf Gaie.
The latter part of last night a stiff gale
from the north-west prevailed with most
disagreeable and disquieting effects.
About three o'clock a fire alarm caused
much uneasiness throughout the city
and soon brought out the department
and a good many citizens in the blind
ing dust storm that was raging. The
high wind was throwing sparks out of
the post-office cremator } ' in rear of THE
TRIBUNE office , and was the cause of
the alarm. It was not necessary for the
department to connect with the fire-
hydrants , as a bucket or two of water
easily extinguished the paper sparks in
the crematory. It was a wild night.
An Ideal Night.
Last Saturday evening was ideal as to
weather for an open-air concert , cool
and quiet , and a large and delighted
bearing was accorded the concert by the
Nebraska Brigade band. The boys were
in good form and gave a fine programme
with spirit and dash. As the concerts
progress the band shows the improve
ment of practice and direction. It is
always enjoyable" and-worth while.

Don't Drink Ice-Cold Water.
Ice-cold water is not so good as iced
water that is , water cooled by ice with-
Dut coming in contact with it. The less
af either the better. It is an excellent
practice to drink water an abundance
af it just before retiring , also the first
thing in the morning. It is a cleanser
Df the system , and is a good diuretic.

ion for the hammer is quite an expen-
ive affair , being made of solid oak ,

> orhood of $200. It is a very desirable

An Unsatisfactory Game.
The of base-ball be-
game - , Tuesday , - j
ween the Athletics and Oberlins was
the most unsatisfactory of thsenson ,
due in a large measure to the partial de
cisions of the umpire a gentleman from
Oberlin , who , it is alleged , was finan
cially interested in the Oberlin team.
There was much and continued kicking
about the umpire's decisions , which bad
a distinctly discouraging effect on the
local players , whe felt that the umpire
was determined to keep them from win
ning ! the game. Whether or not this is
true , may be in question , but that the
umpiring was "fuzzy" was apparent to
any disinterested looker-on. Nevcrthe
less , costly errors on the part of the
local team were an important element in
the defeat of the Athletics.
The attendance was large and the
, *
local interest in the Athletics but little
diminished by their succession of de
feats. The score was 14 to 10 , and the
particulars may be briefly summarized :
