Mrs. Cole, aged 60 ''ears, died at the homc-of her ncic Mis. Eugene Hendric, four miles cut ut this place on Monday morning, t.t 3 a. m. Mrs. Cole came here f 10:11 Michigan some months ago expecting to remain with her neice until spring, but a little more than a week ago she was taken sick which seemed to be fatal from the start. All that a good physician and nurse could do was done, but their efforts were in vain, and what seemed to be an unusually bright intellect was soon dethroned, and a healthy, robust body soon racked by pain and suffer ing. Mr. Cole, her husband, was tele graphed regaiding her illness and camcJ immediately. The shock is great to the grief stricken friends, particular' so to Mrs. Kendrick, who in losing an aunt, loses a mother as well. While yet in tender years- almost too youug to realize the loss, she was left mother less, the aunt at once became mother as well, and opened her home and heait to the little girl who now bo sin cerely mourns her loss. A short fun eral service was held at the Kendric home on Wednesday afternoon, and at midnight Mr. Cole started east on 42, accompanying the remains to Detroit, Mich., where interment will take place in the old family burying ground.

IVE THOUSAND COPIES is the number decided on by the management of The Herald as a special sou venir edition, to be issued from this office during- the month of February next. The purpose of this mammoth is sue is to promulgate the many industrial advantages so numerous in this section of Northwestern Nebraska, and yet not generally known to the outside world. An effort will also be made to incjuce homeseekers to lo cate in our midst and assist in developing one of the richest, mpst fertile and productive sections in all of Nebraska. Located at a most advantageous point, with railroad facilities leading in all directions, especially tapping the great northwest sections of South Dakota, Montana and Wyom ing, with Alliance, by reason of her location, as the natural distributing point, is there any excuse why the metropolis of Northwestern Nebraskashould not strain a point in inducing" manufacturing industries to seek Alliance as the logical point for such enterprises? With the county's immense potato crops the largest and best in the known world it would seem to a visionary mind that a starch factory should be among the early probabilities, thus furnishing a home market for this one product. In the early spring thousands of migrators are daily passing our doors, seeking a future place of residence and hunting desirable localities to invest their surplus wealth. Alliance, seemingly dormant or in a state of lethargy, has calmlv watched this great mass of homeseekers pass on with out even a hint at our own possibilities. All this it will be our aim in the future to remedy. Copies of this illustrated edition will not only visit eYery home in this section of the country, but thousands will be sent broadcast and to foreign climes, thus giving this locality such an advertising as it has never before received. It will contain a general and descriptive write-up of this portion of the state, biographical sketches of pioneers, busi ness and professional men, interior and exterior views of business houses, public buildings, and a six-column view of the town proper and a birdseye of its principal street. The Herald has secured the services of A. B. Evans, a specialist in this class of work, who has seen many years service on the great dailies of this continent, and a most creditable edition may be expected. l S v., sH TO
