And farther, that the people of that place deeply mourn the death of the boys, and that they never had a fear of the town being attached and destroyed by their frtends. Gandy Pioneer.

Western Traveler. Eastern people can harclly realize the difficulties of those living in the west who have a fondness for the stage. A party of twenty will go to Cheyenne from Sid ney to see Edwin Booth in Hamlet. A hundred miles to see Hamlet played ! Yet with many of the part' it will be the op portunity of a lifetime to see Edwin Booth, or even to see Hamlet on the stage and they will long cherish pleasant me mories of the brief hour with the peer less Booth in his delineation of Shakes peare's matchless character,the mysterious and melancholy prince of Denmark. Sidney Telegraph. The coronet's jury in the case of the stranger who met his death 'jy burning in the bailed hay is to the effect that Wm. Simms met his dead by fire set by person or persons to the jury unknown The hand fire engine purchased by the com mittee of the village dads at Nebraska City some time since arrived last Tuesday and was immediatly set at work pumping water from the large wells sunk at the crossings of Spruce, First and Second streets which will abundantly furnish water in the case of fire. The hose for engine has not yet arrived. Ogallala ITeicx. The B. & M. railway is now being graded within 20 miles of Julesburg. When she reaches us land and town lots will double in price Those who can should hold their lands and lots Jules burg should be the countv seat and if the people of 'the east end ever wish to be set off. from Sterling the county seat must be located at Julesburg, and then let the jjeopje of Sterling knock at the legislative halls for division There is no use talk ing, Sterling will oppose further division if they are allowed to retain the county seat next fall. The only thing for the people of Julesburg and the Frenchman to do is to stand together on that question. Julesburg Champion. The Farmers' and Merchants' Bank was opened for business at this place the first of the month . J. I. Beard, Cashier of the bank, has charge of the affairs at present, and he will be found in the building on the southwest corner of Phelps street and the Avenue A move was made jointly last Saturday by parties living in Grant and parties living six miles east of here to circulate a petition for county division on town line between 12 aud 13, aud a cross fire was made by Grantites on Monday by making arrange ments to circulate another set of petitions for divisien on town line between 11 and 12. This last move was met firmly by certain other Grantites and two farmers which resulted in a compromise to with draw former petitions to divide midway on town 12. Grant Enterprise. The town was surprised last Tuesday, by the announcement that Blum Bros, general merchants had failed. It was generally supposed that the firm was on a good financial basis, and the statement that they were into the hole $10,000 or $12,000 was hardly credited. Several attachments have been issued against their stock, and their store is dow closed. This is Broken Bows first merchantile failure. May it also be her last one A telegraphic despatch received by sheriff penn, annonces that that the two horse thieves were jail birds who broke jail at Valentine two weeks ago. A re ward of $800 was offered for their cap. ture. The one jailed here said before he started back that they were the fellows but refused to tell what they were held for there. Broken Bow Jiepublican. Moorefield, a lovely town on the rail road, has never had a Lincoln Land Company boom but has been and is still growing steadily and healthf uUy. Curtis on the other hand, has just had a boom. Like the bladder the boy stepped on, "it busted" . ... . A prairie fire that swept over a large extent of country in the west half of the county last Sunday, did much damage among the homesteaders. Jake Mattoon's team was badly burned and one of the horses will probably die from the effects of it Mr. M. also lost about 12 tons of hay and reports that nearly all of the hay in his vicinity was destroyed. It appears as thoujh some men have no sense whatever about fire and in this country they entirely forget that the law imposes a heavy penalty where damage is done. Stockville Faber.

Sold by A. F. Streitz. A few miles north of Cambridge in the extreme south side of this county lives a family named Conklin. In this family there sprung up a quarrel, the other night that resulted in the suicide of a fourteen- year-old daughter. It appears the daugh terhad been away and arriving home, announced to her mother that she had brought some candy to put on a cake she was going to take to a birthday party to be given by one of the neighbors. Here the quarrel began and it increased till the girl said she would take a butcher knife and go off and kill herself. The unna tural mother immediately handed her the knife and told her to go ahead. Daugh ter threw the knife on the floor, when the mother handed her a phial, of strychnine telling her to take that. The girl took a quantity of the poisen and in 20 minutes was dead. Coroner Purdum was called and the above was elicited at the trial. Mrs. Conklin was brought before Judge Allen, last Saturday and, waving exam ination, she was bound over to the district court. Stockville Faber, Elder Stevens has disposed of his claim at Orkney to J. T. Clarkson, who will soon la' it out in town lots and put them on the market. The consideration was $4,000 Nine" tramps were arrested this week and each given six days at hard labor. The were put to work cleaning up the streets and alleys Postmaster Brennan informs us that during the month of March 25,000 two cent postage stamps were sold at this office, which he says is more than double the usmd aver age. This is a pretty good indication of Sidney's rapidly increasing business Receiver Blakely was busy the first of the weeTc securing his bondsmen. He is re quired to give bonds in the sum of $60, 000, but he had no difficulty in securing $60,000. Register Adams also was suc cessful in obtaining bondsmen, and the bonds were both forwarded to "Washing ton on Tuesday. In a letter from Com missioner Sparks, that official said that he would issue orders for the plats and nec essary books on receipt of the bonds of the register and receiver. Sidney Tele graph. MISCELLANEOUS NEWS. Property valued at $10,300,000 was de stroyed by fire in the United States during the month of March. St. Louis has subscribed $78,000 for the entertainment of the Grand Army of the Republic at the annual reunion in that city naxt fall. Vilas, postmiister general, is suggested as a candidate for vice-president, possibly president. Representing as he does the spoils idea in all its naked deformity, Vilas stands a much better chance of reacliing heaven than of reaching the place of either vice-president or president. Ex-Governor James I. Kemper, of Virginia, is the only surviving general of ficer of the brigade that participated in Pickett's charge at Gettysbnrg, and he has been invited to deliver the oration at the reunion of Picketts Division on the battle field in July, but had to decline be cause of ill-health. Potter Palmer, the famous tavern keep er of Chicago, is the brother-in-law of Col Fred Geant, and is not worth less than $5,000,000. His residence is the finest in the west, a castle on the lake shore drive. He has been heavily in debt since the fire, but is now on sound ground again. A document was found in Washington city the other day bearing the signature: 'James G. Blaine, recorder of deeds." The handwriting was that of Frederick Douglass, at this time recorder of deeds, and it is supposed that Mr. Blaine must have been a prominent subject to Mr. Douglass' thoughts. It is alleged that an invitation to Mr. and 3Irs. Cleveland to visit St. Louis this spring has been signed by two hundred thousand people of that city. Chicago turns up her nose at the demonstration and feels herself authorized to say that if she wanted the presieent to come and see her she would have a couple of million names attached to the invitation. The New York police authorities re cently captured a number of individuals engaged in the occupation of packing up "sawdust bricks'' with which to swindle the gulible who forward good money with the expectation of getting a triple return in counterfeits. The desire of dishonest people to get ahead of Uncle Sam and their fellow men will always make "given goods" have a lively market. The republican party will not be handi capped in the next presidential campaign by the third party prohibitionists. The defection of the labor element from the democratic party is so large that the loss of the prohibiten vote to the republican parry is a mere bagatelle in comparison. The next presidential contest will un doubtedly see four parties in the field, the republican, democratic, prohibition and labor, With the division in the demo cratic ranks caused by the defection of the labor vote the chances for republican success are brighter than ever.

Mr. Bancroft, the historian, has gone to Nashville, Tenn., for a months visit. The principal object of his visit is to see Mrs. James K. Polk and to collect certain his torical matter. Ranchmen and stock growers in Colo rado are beginning to entertain great apprehensions of a drouth during the comming spring and summer months. Their fears seem to be justified, as nearly all the mountain streams are very low and the depth of snow in the mountains very light. Atlanta Constitution: The body of a negro who was drowned in the river at Abbeville, Ga., a few days ago was re covered in a novel manner. An old dar key took a bundle of fodder and put it in the river where the negro first sunk, when it floated down about fifty yards and sud denly stopped and commenced to whirl slowly round and round. Here the old negro dived down and secured the body. He claims to have recoved four or five other bodies by this means, and declares it to be an infallible guide. Since the inter-state commerce act went into effect the number of personal appli cations for appointments under the ad ministration has diminished very materi ally. A department official said the other day: The withdrawal of the rail way passes has pretty effectually stopped the coming of delegations and individuals to urge appointments and pres claims here. Before the inter-state law went into effect there wasn't a day passed that we didn't have delegations or individuals here for one purpose or another. They would come from the Pacific Coast and the far northwest, but now since the free passes have been conceled we don't have many such comers." STARTLING BUT TRUE. Wills Poijtt, Tkyas, Dec. 1, 1885. After suffering for more than threo years with disease of the throat and. lungs, A. t l A t x goi se low last spring l was enureiy un able to do anything, and my cough was so Dau 1 scarcely slept any at night. Mv druggist, Mr. H. F. Goodnight, sent me a trial bottle of Dr. Bosanko's Cough and Lung Syrup. I found relief, and after using six $1 bottles I was entirely cured. - J. 31. WELDEX. Sample bottle 5 cents at A. F. Streitz' New York Sun: The Dry Goods Chronicle has an informant who narrates that many years ago here in New York ten young dry goods counter jumpers brmed a society to marry rich girls. "They swore to protect and ad each other, and all succeed. This society, of young clerks boarded generally at twenty shilling boarding houses, curled each other's hair on Saturday night, went to Sunday school as teachers and became members of the church that had the richest members and the prettiest daugh ters. They went steadily and systematic ally to work in the accomplishment of their object, conferring with and assisting each other. Their piety game was the card that won in every instance. Some of the old families which figure in high society in New York are the direct des cendants of these ten Worthy" young gentlemen." Purify Your Blood. If your tongue is coated.

Jay Gould has probably a hundred mil lions; but he does not think it wise to spend one of them in rearing a palatial domicile. Building is, in his judgment a monetary error, particular when he can always purchase, below cost, a house that somebody else has built This he has done in two instances. He bought his town house, at Fifth avenue and Forty seventh street, and his country house at Iryington to advantage of their owners, who had long occupied them. They are both large, handsome, convenient the country house has fine grounds and a magnificent conservatory and are all that any reasonable man would desire. But there are those who think that a very rich man ought to advertise the extent of his riches on his walls, and such as they hold that Jay Gould has been derelict in architectural duty.
