The expectations of thirty-five lady
candidates for membership int6 the
order of the Daughters of Isabella were
fully realized last Monday night when
they went through the ordeal of riding
the goat and otherwise participating in
the dark mysteries that enshrodds that
society. Sunday and Monday the del
egates from McCook came straggling
in and when the hour for the degree
work was at hand the visitors were
promptly at the Knights of Columbus
hall to do their pari. On every hand
there was expectancy and pale faces in
anticipation of what was to come over
the lambs who were soon to be led to
slaughter. Father Laughran, the state
organizer, was present at the initiatory
degrees. Following is a list of the
McCook team that conferred the de
gree: Grand Regent, Miss Hannan.
Vice Grand Regent, Miss Coyle.
Prophetess, Miss Ryan.
Lecturer, Mrs. Wright.
Monitor, Mrs. Martin.
Sentinels, Miss McKcnna, and Miss
Provauce.
Banner Bearer, Mrs. J. B. Kuiest.
After the degree work, which lasted
till n p.m., all hands repaired to the
hall over Marks' harness 'shop where
they sat down to a bounteous repast.
After the inner man had been satisfied,
Mrs.' J. B. Knicst, toast-mistress, after
a short preliminary talk, .introduced
the speakers of the evening.
"Our Order," was the subject of
Miss Hannan, grand regent, who re
viewed the history of the court exist
ence briefly and paid a most praise
worthy compliment to Alliance and St.
Agnes Court, Daughters of Isabella.
Miss Mary O'hecte was called on
and responded to the toast. "Our
Foundation."
Father McNuuiara, as usual in his
happy vein, won merit with the gentler
sex with his subject, "Benefit of Lady
Organizations iu Church work."
Mrs. W. J. Hamilton gave an im
promptu talk most suitable to the oc
casion, and considering the fact that
she was one of the lambs to the slaugh
ter. "The Relationship of Two Orders."
Dr. Copsey was assigned this subject
Grand Knight of the Knights of Co
lumbus, and the doctor surely gave
words of cheer and congratulations to
the Daughters, and the best of it is,
was that he spoke for the whole body.
Father Laughran was assigned a
most perplexing subject, "Is There a
Place in Heaven for the Daughters?"
The speaker came to the conclusion
that there suiely was such a place and
he declared that in his opinion the
Daughters of McCook and Alliance
had a cinch on the same. Father
Laughran is a versatile speaker and his
address rivited the closest attention.
After several impromptu addresses
by several at the banquet table, those
present repaired to the Knights ot Co
lumbus hall, where they enjoyed a few
hours in dancing and other social en
joyments. The Daughters of St. Agnes Court
suiely started out with every indication
of success.

The Alliance friends of Attorney lu
H. Boyd are somewhat alarmed over
his prolonged absence fiom the city.
His friends say that for sometime prior
to his depaiti e his face boie a farW
away western look ami it was antici
pated that the lefreshing atmosphere
on a Sioux coutitv ranch would have a
most soothing effect. Although some
of his associates here have tried to got
in communication with him it is with
out avail and The Herald is iufoimed
by a lesponsible paity that the indica
tions are that the genial hiwyer will
not return to Alliance a bachelor. Well,
old man, we don't blame you. In fact,
we congiatulate vou on your good luck.

Editor Herald: -
Alliance came to the front this week
on the market here when Jesse Hufty
had in his good steeis. We sold 35 of
them for feeders hat averaged 1306
pounds at 54.55, which was 15 cents
per hundred more than any other
feeders hi ought on the market today.
Considering that there were 0700 cattle
here and the market was slow, we feel
that this was a very good sale and
thought the people of Alliance would
be interested in knowing they raise as
good cattle there as any place in the
country.
With kind regards, we are.
Yours very truly,
