Newberry, Glen Miller, Harve Ellis and J. V. Guthrie and others for expression on the advisability of celebrating the Fourth. The expression was a unit in favor of the same and then a motion was made that the chair select execu tive and finance committees which are as follows: Executive, IraTash, Marcus Franklc, W. D. Rumerand Jack Miller; financial, C. A. Newberry, L. H, High land and W. W. Norton. The committee got busy at once the following day and funds are already raised sufficient to go ahead. The ex ecutive committee met and appointed sub-committees as follows: Committee on literary, speaking and music I. E. Tash. Publicity H. J. Ellis, T. J. O'Keefe W. S. Ridgell. Committee on parade, F, E. Holstcn; fireworks, W. O. Barnes: ball game and miner sports, J. W. Guthrie, G. G. Hampton. Committee on racing J. H. Vaughn, C. C. Smith, J. A. Hunter. While we are not able to give the program of the day in this issue, we can say that the same will be one of the most interesting that will be given in western Nebraska and wo have the committees' word for it that they will spare neither money nor pains to give the people something worth going miles to see. Two special features will be - 'base ball and automobile races of the most interesting kind. Besides this there will be attractions galore and next week The Herald will let you know all about what we are going to have on the glorious Fourth. In the meantime get all the folks ready to come to Al liance to celebrate in a manner that will make the young many years younger. LOCAL PARAGRAPHS.

Hewett has been attending the sessions of the Grand Lodge of the Masonic Order at Omaha for several days this week. - P. K. Cbristensen, son Ejner, and Jesper Jesperson, substantial citizens of Nonpareil precinct, had business in Al liance yesterday. It rains nearly every day now, and the farmers are beginning to complain that so much moisture makes the weeds grow too fast. Wm. Matzat left yesterday for Toston, Mont., where he will take up his residence on a fine farm he recently bought near that place. Dr. C. E. Slagle has gone to Omaha, where he will visit with Dr. Allison for a few days, and then proceed to New York for a sojourn of several weeks. Messrs. Thos. and lohn Katen, Brad ford Fenner and T. L. Hopkins, stock men from the vicinity of Dunlap, are , in. the city to attend the convention. ' Mrs. G; F. Betts of tiucoln has joined her husband here and the pair will make Alliance their home. Mr. Betts is employed by the Alliance Grocery Co. Miller Brothers have received their new pea nut and pop corn wagon, ordered by them last January. They are now operating it on the streets and it is certainly a beauty. Among the Allfancc squad attending thf tfWe university at Lincoln, now at home on furlough, wo notice Earl Mai lery, Lloyd Smith, Pearly Beach and Lloyd Johnson, Herbert Butler. On account of an embargo west of Billings on the Northern Pacific, it wa, necessary to discontinue two passenger trains, 43 and 44, over this divisions and from all reports it will be some time before they will be resumed. Dr. Scoggins of Bridgeport, former proprietor of the Bridgeport News, dropped into the Herald printery yes terday. The doctor was eurouto to Omaha with a carload of cattle. Bet a cow he didn't make the cattle in the printing business. Ode Scofield and family arrived in Alliance a few days ago and will visit here for some time with relatives. Ode is an old-time- railroader, having been employed its a conductor until a few years ago, when he left the service aud moved to Nampa, Idaho. Jay J. Keegan. whp has been attend ing the Kansas state university at Law renco lor the past year, has returned homo and will settle down on the farm with his father, J. A. Keegan, and show the "old man" some new wrinkles in the way of scientific farming. Dr. Bellwood was called to the Phc Ian ranch southeast of Alliance last Saturday afternoon to patch up Will Otto, who sustained a broken ankle by being thrown from a wagon by a pair of fractious mules. The wagon turned turtle and fell hard upon Otto, Percy H. Cogswell, past exalted ruler of the Elks lodge of this city, was the recipient of a handsome gold watch last Friday evening, a gift from a number of his friends in appreciation of his untiring work In behalf of the lodge during his administration. G. L. Shumway, of Scottsbluff, ,was a welcome visitor at The Herald office Monday. Mr. Shumway is secretary of the North Platte Chautauqua Asso ciation and was here advertising the coming meeting of the association at Scottsbluff August 7-16. See ad. A number of the little friends of Rev. Westley's 7-year old daughter :Thelma gathered at her home Wednesday after noon and celebrated her birthday. . It was an enjoyable occasion for all par ticipants. A substantial luncu was served at 5 o'clock. Many pretty pres ents were received by little Thelma. Miss Wilma Wood returned home from Lincoln Sunday, bringing with her the degree of A. B., which was con ferred upon her by the State University of Nebraska, from which she graduat ed. Amongst her other baggage Miss Wood also brought back a permit to teach school as long as she shall live or remain single. The Herald stated last week, on what was believed to be reliable information, that Brakeman Daughtry's death was caused by the carelessness of the engi neer. We are convinced that our re porter was misinformed aud that The Herald unintentionally did the engineer an cruel injustice. Hence this "amende honorable." No member of the train crew was in the least blamable for the deplorable occurrence. During the temporary absence of Dr. and Mrs. C. W. Kreamer from their residence last evening, someone entered the house, supposedly with burglarious intentions, but was frightened away by the early return of the family, before be could collect any plunder. The in truder, in his hasty retreat from the house, dropped a new baseball, which the doctor will gladly return to him, with a 32-caliber ball for interest, if he will call during business hours. Geo. E. Younkin. who recently acquired ownership ot tne rox room ing bouse and the Becker restaurant has taken posession of the former busi ness and Mr. Becker will turn the res taurant over to him next week. Mr, Younkin is a thorough business man and will cater to the public in a manner that will please the largo patronage the place has always had. Mr. Becker and wife will enjoy ia well earud vacation which will include an overlaud trip to the Yellowstone park. Cy. Laing went to Crawford Monday and arrested Ed. Harden on a charge of burglarizing Desche's meat market. The market was "broken into Saturday night and a small sum of money and a quart bottle of highly prized "cough medicine" abstracted. Harden .had been working for Desch, but be jumped bis job and also the town, therefore suspicion and Cy. Laing fell upon him'. He was arraigned before Judge Berry, and waiving examination, was held to court, and failing to furnish bail, was remanded to jail. FREE ENTERTA INMEKT FOR STOCKMEN Whitten' MoiIng Pictures and Illustrated Songs and Grand Ball-All Fres fir Visiting Guists and tha Public Generally In the Phelan Opera House Friday Night. Satisfactory arrangements were corn completed yesterday whereby the en tertainment committee has succeeded in securing the opera house for Friday night. Prof. Whitten has no desire to in any way antagonize citizens in their desire to use the opera houso for a free entertainment for visiting guests and he surrendered his prior right to the house.
