Burlington weather reports todav show snow over the northwest country and a very heavy fall cf rain between Broken Bow and Grand Island. In some places east of Broken Bow, the water is running over the tracks and threatening to do some damage. Invitations arc out this week for the B. of L. E. ball to be given by the Alliance lodge at the opera house next Monday evening. Quick's orchestra from Lincoln will furnish the music and the enginemen are making every effort to make the occasion a grand success. Freight business done at Alliance station the past month has shown quite a'gain over the same period last year. The increase in business is about thirty per cent. This shows the financial conditions in this part of the country are better, as more stuff is being sold and use J. It is reported that General Superin tendent G. W. Rhodes has resigned his position at Alliance, to take effect May 1st, and that he will be succeeded by Superintendent J. R. Phelan. Mr. Phelan is now in Chicago, having been called to that place to meet some of the higher officials of th road, which makes it appear as though such a re port is probably correct. Engineer's Ball Monday. ThcBrotherhood of Locomotive En gineers have completed all arrange ments for their "Electric Ball" Monday night, April 34th, at the opera house, where an entertaining program has been arranged with moving pictures and illustrated songs. Quick's orchestra, of Lincoln, will render sweet music during the program and lovers of music and art should be present. A grand electrical display will be one of the features. Dancing begins promptly after the program. Tathcr Galvin to Leave. The many Iricnds as well as the parishoners of Holy Rosary church were painfully surprise;l to learn that orders had been received from the head of the church in this diocese, at Omaha, ordering Father Galvin to take m the duties of the mission at Spaulding, and to report there by April 14. Father Galvin has hud charge of the Alliance parish for more than five years and it is needless for the writer to elaborate on the osteon) in which he is lield by all in this 'commu nity. While Father Galvin regrets ex ceedingly to part from his friends nntl church work hero, he simply responds to the demand of his superior and does his will, for as he himself has said, "That is what 1 agreed to do when I became a priest. 1 must obey my superior, just as a child should obey its' parent in all things reasonable. I regret in the depth of my heart, to leave the good people of Alliance, whom I will always hold in the kind liest remembrance." Who will be Father Galvin's successor is not yet stated, and while like in politics, there is considerable speculation, nothing definite is known. Spaulding is locat ed in Greeley county, on the Blue river, and has an old established and pros perous congregation. It is the seat of a monastery with a good parochial school under the supervision of an order of sisters. So while Father Galvin's removal is m one sense to bo regretted, he goes to a desirable sta tion. Wo feel we can say, that the good wishes of every citizen will fol low him in his new field of labor. It is stated upon good authority that Rev. Father DeVoss of Spaulding will assume Father Galvin's place at Holy Rosary church. No doubt tho members of that cougtegation will give their new patop.heatty welcome and strixig ent couragcinent in his labors here in their behalf. Phelan Promoted. Eaily this week G. W. Rhodes ten dered his resignation ns General Sup. erintendent here and will leave the ser vice of the railroad, and Division Superintendent J. R. Phelan will be promoted to the vacancy. Superin tendent Birdsell of the Deadwood divi sion is slated to succeed Mr. Phelan. J. W. German, secretary to Mr. Rhodes, has also tendered his resigna tion, but it is reported that he will go to the transportation department at Omaha. Mr. F. W. Harris will no doubt succeed him as secretary to the general superintendent. The Burl ington officials arc all in Omaha this week at the annual meeting of the officers of the operating department and no official conforma tion of above report can be had. Mr. German returned from the cast today, but like Mr. Harris was silent as a clam. Neither confirmation or denial could be had from either. To Become Shriners. The annual meeting of the Shriners will be held in Omaha next week and delegations from all over the state will go there to take the highest degree in Masonry. Among those from here are William Mitchell, W. O. Barnes, Fred E. Holsten, Jasper Cheshire, W. G. Eubank, S. A. Franklin. C. H. Tully, from Lakeside, and A. B. Wood, Marten Bristol and Edward Thornton, froln Ghering. They will leave Tues day morning and return Friday. Killing at Mason City.. A special dispatch from Broken Bow of last Monday, states that Scott H ad dick, a well known farmer, eight miles south of Mason City, shot and killed John Butler, another farmer, on the former's property early Sunday even. ing. I tie trouble which had been breeding for some time, was over a roadway running through Haddick's property. Both parties met Sunday on disputed ground. Haddick ordered Butler off. Butler replied it was a regularly laid out road and he had a right there. Butler fired first, Had dick alleges. The latter returned the fire from behind a post, killing his antagonist. Haddick went to Broken Baw on the midnight train and stayed at the Globe hotel all night. While eating breakfast the next morning he was arrested by sheriff Richardson. Judge Sullivan has been retained as attorney by Haddick. Haddick has always borne a good reputation.

The passion, which is read in full on this occasion, was in Latin, followed by a sermon by Rev. Father Galvin. He spoke chiefly on tho sacred signifi cance of holy wek, which precedes Easter, tho resurrection' of the savior, and explained its magnificent meaning. This week closes tho Ienten season and next Sunday humanity the world over rejoices over the triumphant resurrec tion of the crucified, which means the opening of the gates of heaven to fall en mankind. The weather for the past few days has been decidedly gloomy and snow and cold has been the order of things. Palm Sunday was included in the weather man's bad job of atmospheri cal misconstruction and Monday was likewise. The only silver lining to human existence was the pay car that arrived on time and scattered the filthy lucre over the town. It's strange what influence this medium of exchange has over a community. No sooner did the Burlington's- pay tellers hand out the checks to the toiling mass, when there was a noticeable stimulus to trade all over town. Stores were filled with shoppers, the bank cashiers were busy cashing checks and the saloons became crowded with a jolly set who find pleasure over the flowing bowl. Then at night the streets re sounded with the voices of another element of humanity that delight to revel in a jagged state till morning, casting their hard earned dollars to the wind, only to wake up next morn ing with big heads and empty pockets. f .i.
