IMPROVING IRRIGATION DITCH
8
Two Thousand Dollars Being Expend
ed in Cleaning and Improv
ing the Ditch
The Tribune is advised that the
owners of the McCook Irrigation and
Pqwer ditch on the south side are
expending 2000 this spring in clean
ing and otherwise improving the
ditch Not only are the obstructions
being removed but the work is be
ing done so thoroughly as to obviate
obstructions in a large measure in the
future and thus the flow of water is
not only increasing but the speed of
the flow as well
This ditch is a valuable asset to
this vicinity and its increased use
will be a large source of profit
Small Fire Last Night
The Cain building just south of the
McCook flour and feed store was
practically wrecked by fire last night
between 11 and 12 oclock The build
ing -was unoccupied at the time The
loss will not exceed a few hundred
dollars the building being old and
small
The building had been used as a
glove factory but the materials and
machinery had been recently remov
ed hence nothing was destroyed in
side

tendency to become stooped shoul

Closed Under Attachment
Friday evening the James Stein
mann saloon was closed under at
tachment proceedings instituted by the
Glasner Barzen Distilling and Im
porting Co of Kansas City The
amount owing the company is 1
01346
It is a matter of street rumor that
James Woolard and John McManigal
are slated to occupy that location dur
ing the coming license year and that
Mr Steinman would not receive a
license which alleged fact may have
some bearing on the failure to meet
the demands of the wholesalers
Meanwhile the saloon remains clos

Millinery Openings Are Successful
The reports from the millinery
openings this spring are all very
satisfactory as to attendance interest
and purchases
Mrs J P Nies made a showing of
trimmed hats and other accessories
of stylish excellence never before
equalled in her establishment and
was rewarded with a generous patron
age and by liberal purchases
Smilax and carnations made up the
siniple but pretty decorations of her i
department in the DeGroff store j
Coincidental with the millinery open
ing was a splendid showing of spring
styles of dresses suits and coat for
ladies and of the new things in cloth
ing and hats for men and boys
At the establishment of H C Clapp
they fairly outdid themselves in the
quality and quantity of their display
of the late creations in both the mil
linery and ready-to-wear departments
The claim of Mr Clapp that they have
never before been able to place so
many desirable and late things before
their patrons was borne out in the
showing made to a large yisiting
clientelle who indicated their appre
ciation and approval by advance pur
chases which delighted
Throughout the store the1 decora
tions and displays were most attrac
tive and tasteful the result of most
painstaking efforts of Mr and Mrs
Clapp and their efficient corps of
clerks
Miss Pecks west B street establish
ment made good the announcement
that the display of dress and street
creations for the ladies and childrens
hats were the best and largest ever
exhibited at that store Miss Peck
also reports selections and sales quite
satisfactory and encouraging Her ba
zaar was tastefully decorated for the
event which drew a liberal inspection
and many words of commendation
The cnerins were attended bv la
