Dr. Kingston has moved into his
new residence on Fourth. His office is at
the same old place on Front street over
Ormsby's store.
Again we would remark that the
Lincoln County Fair will be held this
week four days in which to view the
agricultural products, the fine stock, and
witness good horse racing. Everybody
should attend.
Cupid as usual, is getting in his
work this month, three weddings in
which iorth Platte society people figure
having already occurred with others on
the tapis. In the language of Judge
O'Rourke, "let the good work go on."
Marshall Friend is keeping the
streets in good shape. His garbage
wagons gathered up the accumulations on
Spruce and Front streets last week, giving
the streets a much better appearance.
The great family journal is pleased to
commend such work .
The first killing frost of the season
was on Sunday morning last, ten days
earlier than it should have appeared
according to well established usage.
Nearly all late crops were out of the way,
however, outy an occasional piece of late
corn being too green.
The building boom is spreading. It
is growing late in the season to commence
new houses, but a walk about town the
other day disclosed a half dozen iu pro
cess of remodeling, converting the old
fashioned structures into modern cottages.
Every mechanic is busy.
A couple of weeks ago a cow at
Klenk & Gatward's ranch gave birth to a
double-headed calf, both heads being well
developed in all respects, there being four
ears, four ejes, two noses and two mouths.
This montrosit' will be on exhibition ai
the fair this week along with other
wonders of the county.
Wm. Hubartt made another attempt
to sink a well at his house on the north
side, a few feet from where ho made the
effort last fall. This time they succeeded
in getting down about VM feet, and there
struck a very hard rock, which proved to
be almost impenitrable. The effort to go
farther was accordingly abandoned On
this occasion no coal was found.
Dr. Longle3' has engaged the services
of John L. Schuler, late of Peora,
111., as pharmacist in his drug store. Mr.
Schuler is a graduate of pharmacj' and is
registered and qualified under the laws of
Nebraska. So far he is very much
pleased with North Platte and will
become a permanent resident here.
Owing to the low price of butter and
the expense necessary iu gathering cream,
there was some talk of shutting down the
creamery for a time, but we believe the
idea is about abandoned. Several of the
more expensive routes will be discon
tinued however, and other expenses
reduced. Just as we go to press, we learn
that the creamerv has passed into the
hands of D. W. Baker & Co., who will
continue the business as indicated above .
The wedding of G. F. Huffman and
Miss Amanda Federhoof at the Lutheran
church on Tuesday evening of last week
was attended by a large number of invited
guests. After the ceremony a reception
was held at the Nebraska House, at which
an elaborate collation was served. The
presents received by the couple were
very numerous and handsome. Though
a little late, The Tiuijune thus publicly
extends best wishes for the future welfare
and happiness of Mr, and Mrs. Huffman.
The opera house will be a very
attractive place Friday evening, that being
the date of the Ladies' Fair Ball. The
ladies in this case are the wives of the
members of the B. of L. E., and the
object of the ball is to furnish amusement
for the public as well as to receive aid for
the establishing of a ladies auxiliary to
that order. The entire management rests
with the gentler sex, the different com
mittes being as follows: Mistress of cere
monies: Mrs. Chas. Ell; committee of
arrangements: Mrs. W. Lloyd, Mrs. Frank
Tracy, Mrs. B. A. Miller, Mrs. W. J.
Stuart, Mrs. Jno. Philips; committee on
reception: Mrs. Alex. Fen wick, Mrs. J. D.
Smith, Mrs. Wm. Dalson, Mrs. J. J.
Sullivan, Mrs. Dell Bonuer, Mrs. J. M.
Bonner, Mrs. James Flynn; floor commit
tee : Mrs Geo. Austin, Mrs. Harry Fike?.
Mrs. Chas. Norton, Mrs. A. Struthers,
Mrs. 31. H. Douglas.
Cards were received in the city Satur
day announcing the wedding of Edward
H. Edson and 3Iiss Mary E Holmes, the
ceremonv occurring at the home of the
bride in "McCook, Neb., on Wednesday
of last week. Up to a year or so ago the
bride was a resident of the city and by
Ler winning and pleasant manners wou
great popularity in social circles. The
groom Has lived in the city two or three
years, being an employe of the train
dispatchers office, and is a very worthy,
popular and straightforward gentleman
Mr. and Mrs. Edson. ar now visiling
friends in the east, but will return to this
city about the loth of next month at
which time they will receive a hearty
welcome from their many friends and
acquaintances.
While the misunderstanding in the
school board is not a desirable condition
of affairs, and is to a limited extent
prejudicial to the schools, The Triduxe
believes the board is fully competent to
settle the matter without the interference
of outside parties. The board is composed
of honorable and intelligent gentlemen,
aud they will no doubt soon be able to
come to an understanding that will be
satisfactory to all. Petitions and bluster
will only aggravate the situation, as in
such cases those who have the least right
to complain are generally the loudest
mouthed, making a tempest out of a
simmering tea-pot. Time spent also in
circulating petitions is time thrown away,
for 4he board is an autocrat body, not
responsible or bound to report to any
authority. The Tribune is also impelled
lo non-interference from the fact that a
school fight is something like a family
quarrel the fellow who interferes is
pretty certain to get the worst of the
bargain. So let us keep hands off and
about the next meeting of the board all
svill no doubt be amicably adjusted.

Six clerks have been kept on the rush
for several days past in Foley's dry goods
department. The low prices inaugurat
ed have greatly augmented the sales of
this establishment.
The preliminary hearing in the case
of the State against D. W. Besack on the
charge of concealing stolen property, was
had before Judge O'Rourke Monday
forenoon. The defendant was discharged.
Fruit jars have been in demand du
ring the past two weeks, the stock in
most of our stores benig exhausted. An
order sent to Omaha ten days ago was
not honored, the supply being out, show
ing that the demand has been heavy all
over Nebraska.
Among other agricultural products on
exhibition at the.fair are samples of Early
Puritan potatoes raised at Wildaire Ranch
by Mrs. J. II . Hershey, the yield from
two and one-half bushel of seed on two
fifths of an acre of land beiug 170 bushels.
One single eye of seed produced fifteen
fine large potatoes.
As the proposition to vote aid to the
Missouri River, North Platte & Denver
railway becomes understood, opposition
almost invariably ceases. At first in
Wallace, even, there was a strong
element opposed to the bonds, the oppo
sition being based on general principles;
but as the question is discussed, the peo
ple begin to see the matter in its proper
light. By election da' Wallace will be
unanimous for the scheme.
A. E. Touzalin for several 3rears gener
al manager of the B. & M. Ry in Nebras
ka, died at his summer residence in Ben
ington Vt. , on the 13th, of hemorrahage
of the lungs. Mr. Touzalin held large
real estate interest in Nebraska and Col
orado, owning about 20,000 acres the
south side Cheyenne Mountain, near Col
orado Springs. His estimated wealth is
one million dollars, all of which he made
m the past twenty-five years. He was
about 48 years old.
In the Arnold murder trial at Gering
three weeks were consumed m trying to
get a jury and in hearing motions for
a coutiuuanee, &c. A gentleman who
came down said that Judge Church
passed through the trying ordeal with
"flying colors," the sharp"lawyers beiug
unable to get him tangled. The Courier
says: "Judge Church is winning a great
deal of praise on all sides for his perfect
aud impartial justice in making his
various rulings and decisions."
Good Advice.
Make your cooks happy and also the
Ladies Aid Society by taking your meals
at the Meyer building for the next three
daj's.
Mr. Eells valuable horse "Sam
Short" died early yestered morning, from
inflammation 6f the bowels. "Sam
Short" was a fine large horse, of kind
gentle disposition, capable of making his
mile in about 2:30. Mr. Ells had often
been offered a big price for him, but as
often refused, for the horse was a family
favorite. The last offer came from
Governor Grant of Colorado, and the sale
had been practically made at $600. The
death of the horse, is a severe loss finan
cially and otherwise.
Lisco & Co., the lowest bidders for
the Brady Island bridge, did not file their
bond until Monday, the time being ex
tended by the commissioners for that
purpose. The board not being acquainted
with the bondsmen, it was not approved
up to the time we went to press yesterdaj'.
John L. Means we believe is the next
lowest bidder, and possibly the board may
be obliged to give him the coutract, as
much more delay will be fatal to build
ing the bridge this season. In case the
contract is awarded to the latter he is
prepared to commence the work
immediately.
The Methodist conference for this
district will take place at Ord this year,
commencing next week. Rev. Clifton
will attend, of course, startiug next
Monday. Rev. Clifton's work in -North
Platte lias been highly successful and we
trust gratifying to the church. The
membership" of the church has been
increase'1 by about one-half, the new
members being largely converts, and
about $400 have been collected and added
in the war of improvements. Rev. C. will
go to the conference with a report of
whi-h he may well feel proud, but
whether he wilfbe returned to this charge
of course is not known. Being a strong
revivalist, the Bishop may think it advis
able to send him into a new field, but
usually we believe preachers are kept in
one charge two years. Rev. Amsbary
will very likely be continued as presid iug
elder.
"millinery. '
Miss Kate Couway starts next Monday
for St. Louis, to purchase our fall and
winter stock of Milliner', and will take
great pains to select all the novelties in
shapes and sizes. Ladies wishing any
thing in that line will do well to wait till
her return before purchasing.
Conway Sisters.
The wedding ceremony of Miss Ma
ble E. Fisher and Reed M. Hindman, to
which a large number of invitations were
issued will take place at the Episcopal
church this (Wednesday) forenoon at nine
o'clock. The contracting parties are well
known in the city. Miss Fisher has re
sided here some five years and during
that time has won the friendship of a
large number of our people. Mr. Hind
man is employed as a fireman on the road
and is a exemplary young man. Immedi
ately after the ceremony the couple, ac
companied by a party" of relatives and
friends, will take" the train for Grand Is
land, where a reception will be given at
the home of the groom, and in which
city the happy couple will reside. Many
handsome presents were received at the
Walsh residence yesterday, among which
was a very elegant tea gown from Peoria.
The Tiiibone extends congratulations
and best wishes in advance of the happy
event.

For several years then kas been more
or less talk of moving O'Fallon station
sometimes westward, sometimes eastward
of the old location, which for some reason
as the surrounding coostry was settled
and developed did not appear to give
satisfaction. It haa finally been decided
to move the station three miles east, and
grading on the sew atte was commenced
Monday morning. It Is uderstood that
the change was secured through the
efforts of Paxton Hershey.

the respective treasurers in exces$ot' the
amount allowed according to the decision
of the supreme court rendered on the 28d
of last January in the case of the city
treasurer of Beatrice vs. the county treas
urer. The whole repott'-was ordered
published by the council, and will appear
next week, that the people may fully
understand the situation. Following is a
digest of Mr. Goozee's report: -

The Nortb. Side Union Mission Sunday
School.
It may be there are some who have
uot known but who desire to know some
thing of the Union Mission Sunday
School of the North side. The orsauiza
tion was perfected August 11. 1889, with
fair representation of all churches among
its officers and teachers. The attondance
each Sunday has been Iarg and the
interest strong.
meets a want long

The Sunday school
felt and we are sorry
enterprise is looked upon with disfavor
by many of our christain friends on the
south side. The reasons assigned so far
have seemed to us unworthy of any pro
fessing the cause of Christ at heart.
There are and always will be over here
many children of an age who cannot
attend on the other side. Thern are and
always will be some whose attendance is
so irregular as to make no appreciable
differance in their schools should they
entirely withdraw, and there are many
mothers of large families oyer here
whom this school, in time will greatly
accommodate, and if there should be
some of all ages and degrees of faithful
ness who desire .to give this extra home
on Sunday to the study of the Word and
so encourage by their attendance the
above mentioned classes, ought there to
be a question of them, of us. or the
Masters right to carry on His owu work
in His own way ?
"Would that these Mission schools
would multiply till the large percentage
of children of North Platte now out from
under religious instruction could be
gathered in.
Like a soldier in battle, we are careless
of our own wounds if only the battle is
won, and are ready to undertake still
farther. May all true christains leave
their narrow lines and unitedly work
to gather into the coming Kingdom of
Christ, and we do trust that there will be
a reconsideration of the harsh judgments
passed upon us by those unfriendly to us;
but if not the truth contained in the
couplet "God never erects a house of
prayer, but Satan straightway plants a
chapel there," is here exemplified.
If God be for us who can be against us?
And we know, which goes beyond
belief, that God commands us to go
forward. And we here cordially invite
all who love the work to join us and so
"share with us the glory of the harvest
home."
Services at half past four at the
Children's Home everySnnday.
