O&IDENj ro; The town of Grant, located in the southern part of Keith county, expects to become an extensive railroad center and the Sentinel last week .makes this an nouncement : "Last Friday morning the B. & M. engineers arrived at Grant and immediately went to work to run a line connecting the Wyoming uentrai road with their Cheyenne extension at Grant It is absolute v necessary that this line should be built to complete their net work of roads in Western Nebraska, and the -junction will be at Grant. It is quite probable that the road will tap Ogallala or go uear to it. Editor Powers of the Stockville Faber, visited this section last week and has the following to say in regard to North Platte, ".Last Saturday and Sunday were spent very agreeably in North Platte, among r- . - - i i tt t iis.emerprisins Business men, oy n. u. Merriman and the writer. It is a lively, progressing city of about 3,000 people, and the money paid out each month, to laborers and mechanics, by the U. P. Railroad Company gives it the stir of many towns of a much larger population without the paj roll, mentioned. It goes to prove mat there are no towns that are so sate to invest in as tnose having manu facturing and other enterprises that em ploy a large number of men and women. JMonn riatto is surrounded oy a poor country, but is does not depend on the country for its growth. On last Tuesday Dr. Salisbury met with a verv serious and painful accident. While driving in from his claim south of the river, and when within a mile and a half of town, his team, a pair of fractious ponies, became unmanageable, and struck out at a runaway speed. Mr. Salisbury lost control of them and was thrown from the vehicle, a two wheeled cart, striking the ground with such force as to cause a iracture ot tne left leg. He was con-. veyed to town, and aid was quickly ren dered him ; Dr. L. M. Line set the limb and rendered such medical assistance as was necessary. While the breaking of a limb in any instance is a painful misfor tune, it is in Mr. Salisbury's case made much more serious and complicated by bis having sustained a fracture of the same bone, the 'tibia, of the same leg but Ogallala Naes. A D HB0KWOSIZ, Jas. State Bank of North Platte, NORTH PLATTE, NEB. to ail humum estnwted to m paid ob Mmtiom gives Hade at the Terr Loweet Rates of latere. a short time ago.- Spcaking of the storm at Elsie, in the eastern part of Keith county, a couple weeks ago, the Grant Sentinel says:. Buildings were picked up the air a hun dred rods away. The lumber yard were scattered over the prairie for miles the wind playing havoc with everything. One lumber firm, that of L. Smith & Son, lost about. $140 in currency ; it being in a drawer in the office and was carried away in the fracus. The firm of Pearson & Henderson, general merchandise, had placed the goods on the shelves only the day before, and their building and goods were scattered to the breeze, causing the boys a big loss. Of the ten buildings that compose the town only one stood on its foundation. Three were completely blown to pieces, while the rest were more or les3 racked. The people, or a majority of 'them, were lying down on the prairie to keep from blowing away, your humble servant being among the number. It was a trying ordeal, and we can safely say that inside a half hobr we had about a peck of sand down inside of us. The high toned Boston girls who have been having themselves photographed in all sorts, of poses, new and nude, doubtless excuse themselves on the pretext that they have been helping the artist to make a bare living. Hot weather photography may haye its philanthropic phases, but they are almost as scanty as its apparel. The young man who pitched for the Concords against the Manchesters a few days ago is a phenomenon oil the ball held as well as on it. since his return to his home in southern Massachusetts an acquaintance has received a letter from him with six cents inclosed. He says he rode to the ball grounds on the horse cars and did not pay his fare, and asks that the money be handed to the proper parties. One of the hens of John Aldrich of Naugatuck, while devoting all her ener-j gies to hatching out a lot eggs was taken sick and died. The rooster of the flock immediately took her place, and has now been sittmff on the nest ot eggs for nearly three weeks. He daily leaves the nest at a certain time, bristles up and clucks as naturally as any old hen, and to all appearances and and purposes is a ull-uedged motherly old hen. During a recent severe thunder storm near Bechtelsville, Pa., lightning struck a gypsies' camp, and two young gypsy girls who were sitting under a tree were pros trated by the shock. They were terribly burned about the body and blood oozed Yrom their wounds. The injured girls were laid in one of the large wagons, where they are slowly recovering. The girls were Sophia and Jennie Stanley, members of the great Stanley tribe of gypsies, and very beautiful. A quaint looking individual about forty years of age, with long, iron gray hair, covered by a broad-brimmed white hat, recently attracted attention on the streets of San Francisco. He proved to be "Montana Joe" the most eccentric charac ter in the western mines. His real name is Joseph Merybear, and he is a graduate of Dartmouth college. He had an un lucky love affair in the east and has been working a lonely claim in Montana for fourteen years. He hates women and lives the life of a hermit in the moun tains. There is a bad coon in Brockville, Canada. It recently attacked a sow with a litter of pigs. She fought him off as Desi as sue couio until the uproar attract ed a squad of other hogs, which rushed to the sow's assistance and succeeded in driving the coon away. The latter how ever, after abandoning the contest, stood bristles up, sulkily watching the hogs whereupon a woman who wsa look ing on, threw a stick at him. To her astonishment the animal' at once pounced upon her and began tearing her dress to pieces. After much exertion she succeeded in beating him off. Purify Your Blood. If your tongue is coated.

F iu.. ...,.. , i- - -r - - i. t. ,u , ,mt!U..- r ' - -rife -J- Says the New York World: To. 1880 Virginia elected six republic coagreas men and three democratic and the total vote left the democracy in a minority of about 21,000 in the state. Tbe republic ans, besides this gained coasrreMmea Is several other southern states. Now the Kentucky democrats display an indiffer ence to party to an extent which has just rendered the loss of the state probable. If this does not show that the south is not so reliably "solid" now as it has been for years, what does it show ? A Philadelphia Knight of Labor says that the reason for the failures of so many strikes and the gradual dismember ment of the order is due to the attempt to settle differences by appointing commit tees of craftsmen belonging to other lines of work There is much sound truth in this. What, for instance would a cooper know the details of a shoemaker's business? or a tailor of a cigar-maker's? Yet of these various men were the arbi; tration committees made up. When a dozen or more such men, therefore, de cided upon a certain basis of settlemest it was not surprising that the proposed settlement was frequently unacceptable either to the manufacturer or the work men themselves. This is the way a great deal of injustice unintentionally, of course crept in. They went in to arbi trate upon matters which in many cases they absolutely knew nothing about. The Knights may gather a good lessoa irom the sound ideas of this practical man, and, if not too late, try their applica tion. Bearer's Cherry Cough Syrup Will relieve that cough almost instantly and make expectoration easy. Acts simultaneously on the bowels, kidneys and liver, thereby relieving the lungs of that soreness and pain and also stopping that tickling sensation in the throat by remov ing the cause. One trial of it will con vince any one that it has no equal on earth for coughs and rold. A. F. Streitz has secured the sale of it aad will guar. antee every bottle to give saUsf actios. Previous BsUway Hfcrors. The present year will pass down to history as the year of railroad horrors. The record in this regard exceeds that of the five previous years combined. On Jan. 4 the Baltimore and Ohio fast train bound from New York to Chicago, with five coaches and a baggage car had just naqsAd Rannblic. Ohio, at a liehtnine speed when it dashed into a freight train which had come to a stanastui on tne track. It was a cold night and the freight engineer had been unable to keep up steam. The collision was a most violent one, and the result to the passengers, of whom there were about 100 aboard, was very distressing. Those ot them who worn nnt. killpd oiitricht bv the shock. ' w ww - a v were slowly cremated by the fire, which aesiroyea ma euuro uaiu, xkuuuti kneu-ty-ftre people lost their lives sad as msay more wounded. During the night of Feb. D the express train on the Central Vermont Road, which had left Boston at 7 o'clock that evening was making up for lost time, and when it reached the White River bridge near Woodstock, Vt., it was precipitated fiftv feet to the river below.
