Our barber nearly precipitated a
riot last Sunday. He attended a
wedding, as a witness, you under

finished his awful work, and had re
ceived his fee, and while all he
bride's feminine relatives were weep
ing, and the happy couple stood
under the wedding bell, he stepped
up to the. groom and spoke as fol
lows: "Brother, congratulations.
Married life will be happy if you ob-
serve the Marquis of Queensbury
rules. Remember, no fighting In the
clinches, strangle holds barred and
positively no horseshoes In the
driven."
Does hare a mushy sound, doesn't
it? "Encore" means "again."

A certain friend of ours had one
of those letters but explained it b

girl at whose home he had
boarded.
There Is something to this ralsi i

two teachers were expelled or fired
because they were discovered experi

The governor told all tne high
school students to "work and save."
We didn't hear whether he was ap

And, also, the forager was always
with them. They didn't mind the
confederate brethren stealing from
their opponents, but when they stole
from their friends and neighbors,
then In desperate plight, they drew
forth this sort of a remonstrance:
"We have heretofore refrained
from alluding to the matter which
has been a source of extreme annoy
ance and loss to our citizens. We
refer to the lax discipline of some
of our company officers in allowing
their men to prowl around day and
night, and purloin fruit, vegetables,
and chickens, etc., from our den
izens, and in the majority of cases
from those whose chief subsistence
Is derived therefrom; this charge is
i,0(, uuiie Uboicly to taose at the
works, but Is equally. If not mainly,
attributable to the wagoners ana
others in charv.e of animals. Several
cases have come to our knowledge
wnerelii the offenders have, In open
davlieht. entered premises, seized-
cattle and other things, and defied
the owners to their teeth. eW are
nained to learn that an esteemed
citizen of our Vlcksburg, Wm. Por-
terfield, was under the necessity, in
nrotectln ehls Property, to wound
one or two soldiers, and deprive an
other of his life, we fully appreci
ate the fatigue, hardships and pri
vation to which our men are sub-
wted but uoon lnaulrv It may be
ascertained that our city is second
to none 1 ncontrlbutlng to the wel
fare of those gallant spirits wno risK
thlr life and limb for the achieve-
men of an end which will mak us
one of the most honored people 'ot
thn onrth. and such conduct ot wnlcn
m-e complain Is but base ingratitude
A soldier has bis honor as mucn ai
stake as when a civilian, then let him
preserve his good name and reputa
tion with that same Jealous care as
before he entered his country s
ranks. But so long as this end Is
lost sight of. so long may we expect
to chronicle scenes of bloodshed
among those of our people. We
make this public exposure, moruiy
ins; as It is to us. with a hope that a
solutary Improvement In matters
will be made by our military authorities."
MRS. MARGARET KELLY'S
WILL FILED IN COURT
The will of Mrs. Margaret Kelly
was filed In probate court Tuesday
morning. She left an estate valued
at between 16,000 and $7,000.
Among minor bequests was one of
1100 to the Bloomington, Neb., cem
etery association, and a $25 share
of stock In the Masonic Temple was
left to the association. Her personal
keepsakes and mementoes were left
to her granddaughter, Helen Hewitt,
and the balance of the estate Is given
to the Eastern Star home at Fre
mont, Neb. The will gave minute
directions for the funeral arrange
ments and disposal of the body.
which were carried out as she bad
desired.
The excess profits tax means that
you can steal all you want to from
your customers just so you give tne
long end of the stealings to the gov
ernment.

OF REGISTERED
HEREFORD BULLS
Owing to increased ranch duties I have decided to quit handling registered bulls and I will
sell this bunch of choice animals at public sale at the
Old Phillips Livery Barn
ALLIANCE, NEBRASKA
Saturday 9 Mar. 13
- AT 1:30 P. M.
These bulls were raised in Northern Missouri and Southern
Iowa and are largely of Anxiety breeding. They are mostly
coming three and four year olds, thoroughly acclimated
and tuberculin tested and in excellent breeding condition,
having been well wintered. During my sixteen years of
handling Registered Bulls I can truthfully say that this is
as fine a bunch of bulls as I have handled. Every animal
guaranteed to be a satisfactory breeder and right in every
way.
I will also sell with the same guarantee one aged bull which I have used on my ranch dur
ing the past year. This animal is an exceptionally good individual and weighs about 1900.
These are all well marked, big-boned animals and they will make a valuable addition to any
herd. I live near Marsland and I am in a position to make good on every guarantee.
