T. E. ODIORNE. PARISH Has the Genuine Old Fashioned Buckwheat Flour and the Best Maple Syrup in Town. PARISH To all who love music of the purest quality of tone there comes , earlier or later , the ultimate desire to possess a Chiokering Piano. The educated ear that , experience brings seeks the most perfect instrument , and if the lack of means does not prevent , the true artist comes eventually to own a Ohickering. That great artist , Von Bnlow , says : "On others I have to play as the piano permits ; on the Ohickering I play just as I wish. " They express most perfect ly that soulful quality the composer seeks to voice , give that delight the sense of perfect tone imparts satisfaction - tion that is beyond price. There is nothing above or beyond the Checkering. It gives the supreme satisfaction of showing to the utmost the skill of the musician. No'praiso ' of the delightful Ohickering tone can exaggerate its beau ty. No words can describe its liquid purity. Like the glaze in the chinaware - ware of the old French potter , its imitation - tion has been attempted by hundreds of followers , yet it remains unique , perfect , without a rival , and has held this posi tion for the past seventy-five years. Since nothing but the Ohiokoring will satisfy ultimately , why not have the nt- most perfection in the first place ? You can buy it to the best advantage at Johnson's Furniture Store. The Weather.

The West Side Whist club was pleasantly entertained last night by Mr. and Mrs. J. R. Hays. There waa a good attendance notwithstanding the stormy weather. Seller & Gardner have sold tho'Porker hpnso on Koonigstoin nvotmo to Mayor D. J. KoonlgBtoln , who oxpootB to take possession about the 15th of April. The consideration was $2,700. "NV.V. .

B. S. Dlukius who has served the con tracting firm of Owen , Bros , as book keeper for the past throe years , died Monday atLoavouworth , Kansas. Dur ing his connection with the firm of Owen Bros. Mr. Dinklus spent some time in Norfolk , boarding at the Pacific hotel. Ho formed n number of pleasant acquaintanceships in Norfolk and his friends will bo pained .to learn of his death. The meeting of business men to com plete the organization of the commor- o'al club is to bo hold this evening nt the city hall , when the articles are to bo passed upon and officers elected. This promises to bo a live , euorgotio club , composed of Norfolk's best business men and well known property holders. All interested , or likely to bo , should turn out and launch the club with a spirit that will astonish the weather. W. O. Toliver writes from Riverside , California , that Mr. and Mrs. L. K Pritohard of Meadow Grove are there , that Mr. Pritchnrd's health is very much improved and that they are enjoying life. Mr. Toliver says that everything there is as green ns in summer , aud strawber ries are selling for lf cents a box.

E. church , when the very excellent program to bo given by the CoOperative - tivo Lyceum Bureau of Omaha will bo presented. The first number will bo a lecture Monday evening by Robert Parker Miles of Now York , his subject being "Tallow Dips. " Those who heard Dr. Engeno May hero will recognize the talent that the lyconm has nt hand aud next week should bo one of crowded houses at the church. . The attendance at the Blind Boone con cert in the Auditorium lust night \vas not large but those attending were well en tertained as is usual with Boouo's con certs. Having been blind almost since birth , Boone's natural talent for music appears to have acquired additional keenness from the loss of that sense and his performance on the piano is prodigi ous for ono who is not being able to BOO what ho is doing. The other features of the program were equally acceptable with Booue's playing. Considerable spirit' has boon shown during the closing hours of the Auzoigcr voting contest for the most popular bus iness man which ends this afternoon. The demand for coupons on the" * part of friends of the contestants has been largo , each determined to carry off the prize.

" They close by inviting the people to "come and see what progress the American mills have made this year , Whether you wish to buy or not. " The fire department was called to respond spend to an alnrinj ; from the Junction this morning about 11 o'clock and ono hose cart and the hook and ladder truck were on its way south in a few moments after the alarm was sounded. The fire was in the house next door to the Clifton hotel , occupied by the family of A. P. Clark. The excitement was occasioned by a gasoline atovo explosion and dam ages to the amount of f 150 or $200 was occasioned to the house and its contents. By the tiino the uptown firemen arrived ' the tronblo had been' handled by the Junction hose team although they ex perienced considerable difficulty in get ting water on the fire owing to the tend ency of the water to freeze in the hose and the difficulty of moving the cart over the rough and frozen streets. With the fierce and cold north wind blowing it was a day to test the mottle of the fire men and ono that threatened disaster should the fire once again headway.

A mining expert from Dos Moines ar rived at Jackson , Neb. , today , wont to the wells north of town , and next Monday will begin sinking a , shaft on the farm of 0. H. Goodfellow/four milea north of Jackson , to dotermin whether there is a coal supply at hand that will justify opening a mine. This farm is a portion of the thousan d acres of land leased by the Sioux Beet Syrup and Preserving company for pros pecting for coal mines. The company is anxious to secure it own fuel in this way and is willing to go the expense of developing the territory in order to BO - cure the benefit of the great economy. It was three years ago that , in digging wells , coal veins wore found on the Riley and McBride farms , three miles north of Jnckbon. Ono vein of six fept was discovered at a depth of 100 feet ; and another of three feet 110 feet down. Geological exports have hooted at the idea of mining coal in Dakota county , but practical business men seem dis posed to loam for themselves. Geolog ical exports have , on occasions , been mistaken , and coal actually found which proves of good quality. If the efforts of this company de velop the presence of coal in such quantities as to justify its being mined it will bo moro Important to Sioux City's future as n manufacturing center than any incident in its history , It would give manufacturers and packers n cheap fuel that would enable them to conipoto with any city in ( he United States Sioux Oiy Tribune.

It is a two and a mlf per cent ( grade on an average and n order to make it the road forms a loup and crosses itself in ono place. Built as it is along a stuep and rugged lillsido , there are numerous deep cuts and heavy fills , where the ron-l' goes through ridges and dikes of slate sandstone - stone mid porphyry , and where it cross es and heads oil'a succession of gulchos. Dovcral of the deepest cuts are so marked > hat in going through them it is neces sary to look towards the zenith to see the sky. Tho'.lino gives a commanding view of the town of Deadwood , as it winds around the crest of the mountain above , and a few miles further to the north- oiBt ; and cast may bo scon the prairie region , which on clear days may bo studied to the sky lino. As Load is approached it looks like almost a sheer Irop to the station of Pluma , on the Burlington , where the Horseshoe Mining company has its chlorinatiou plant. The now line is built almost in the shape of n horseshoe , with some irregularities. The railroad company expects to have the tics and rails laid by the first of April , and to have standard gauge trains running into Load. It is expected that Load will then bo made the terminus of the road , and will bo headquarters for the division passenger and freight agents.
