High School Dsclaxtatory Contest The declamatory contest at the opera house last Friday (light was well af. tended, indicating a good interest in the work of the 'high school.

Indeed, it may'. be-said ofther, "None knew her but to' love her." She was a highly cultured young lady, being a ecaduate of St. Mary's Convent of Bay City, and was proficient as a pianist.

F. .Bundy will op. erate the stereoptican. Attraction will be added by the fact that the places spoken of and represented have recent ly been seen in tbe Roosevelt expedi tion. A cordial invitation is extended to everybody to attend. Hew teal Estate Fk m 1 tie Alliance Land company is the name adopted for the transacting of real estate business by a new firm composed of Messers. J. A. Hunter and W. M. Iodence. They have rent ed the southwest corner on the second floor of the Rumer block, one of the best locations, we think, in the city ior ineir puipoce. We predict that this new firm will dispose of a large amount of Box Butte county soil the coming season. Mr. Hunter is thoroughly familiar with this country, he is well acquainted with the people and is a rustling business man. Mr. Iodence also has a practical knowledge of the soil and farming pros, pects of this county, which with his legal lore will make him a valuable member ot a firm of this kind. These gentlemen started out rieht by ordtring a supply of printed matter, irom me neraia'8 job department. The indications are that there will be an unusual large attendance at the opera house to hear the famous lectur er; "Seamu8MacManus," in "Rollick ing Ramble through Ireland," Easter Monday Bail The committee in chnrgo of the ball to be given next Monday night at the l'hclttu opera house by the Knights of Columbus has been hard at work with the determination to mako this event the most enjoyable of the year. It is no easy matter to eclipse the success of last year, but the committee believes it can promise to all attending next Monday night just a little bit the swell est affair that has happened in Alliance for some time. Something About The Herald Piano The Bennett Piano offered by the Herald iti the contest now under way possibly represents the greatest value of any piano in the market today at the price. The Bennett Co., has long been known as tho exponents of, and factors in the west tor strictly high grade pianos. There is not a stenciled piano purchased and sold by them from the many factories today making and selling this class of piano. The Bennett Co. piano is manufac tured by Kohlcr & Cnmpboll, tbe larg est ond 'orw of the most distinguished piano 'manufactures and interior player action 'makers in the world. Every Dennett Co. piano haB the name of SCohlerOfc Campbell, its manufacturers, oast in the plate. The piano to be given away to the successful corrtesfant has already been ordered and will reach Alliance 'the early .part of April, and will be on 'display in their store rooms, opposite 'the postoftce. There is a great deal of interest manifested in 'the contest -and we -assure whoever i6 -successful in securing 'this'boautiful 'instrument that she will get apaano of which she can be pread, and one backed 'by a manufacturer who is secoad to noee in 'the world; -also backed 'by the Bennett Co.. whose re putataion for eqsarc dealmc and wbese rfinancial standing in Nebraska .and Wyoming is not -questioned by any "re putable person. S0DIETYS5lSFME '.WEEK A large and enjoyable -card party was giaen on Saturday evening at tbe pleasant home of Alr and Airs. R. E. Murray. on Toluca avenue. Both ladies and gentlemen wece present and were enough for five tables who .passed the evening playing Ave hundced- Mr.. Lindley tEllis won rBt prize, a hand some cut glass salt and pepper shaker.

By Mr. Wag ner's skill with the cards he succeeded in winning the booby prize, A very dainty and .delicious three-course lunch was served on the card tables. This is Abo first time Mr. and Mrs. Murray (have entertained since .making their home in Alliance, and they show by xheir hospitality that they are worthy of the welcome given tbem. The party was given in honor of Mr. Homer Murray who left Sunday moru las ior iincaui wuere tic win ue a member of tbe Western league base bail team. Oin Tuesday afternoon twelve ladies gathered at the borne of Mrs. Robert Birney to spend tbe afternoon playing " 500." Mrs. Gnv M. Richards of Grand .Island was tbe guest of honor. At 5:30 eleven games had been played of whicb Mrs. Richards won ten. She was given a beautiful china pitcher. The consolation prize was awarded to Mrs. R. H. Watkins. One of those delicious, long-to-be-remembered lun ches for wbich the hostess is famous, was served on the little tables. At six p. m. the ladies departed after assuring Mrs. Birney it was one of tbe most pleasant parties of the season. Mrs. Nell Dietlein of Crawford was guest of honor at a party given by Mrs. U. N.

It is needless to add that a pleasant evening was spent. Reform Began A number of boys from about eight to fourteen years of age that have been staving out of school and earning a little money were found shooting fire crackers and doing other things that were annoyinglto citizens of Alliance last Saturday and were arrested by the city" marshal and taken before Judge Zurn for hearing.

Allovers to match, both for yokings and waists, the yd. 75C tO $2.00 probably have been sent to the ri-fc'n school, but the judge did not coni.if 1 this advisable at present, but gave thftu a ten days' jail sentence, the sentence being suspended on condition that they behave themselves, following the advice given to them in a good talk by the judge- This we suppose is a good be ginning in a matter that has been too much neglected, We suggest that it be followed up with an enforcement of the compulsory education law.
