MINOR MENTION. -The Schrambling- restaurant on Front street has been closed on account of lack of trade. B. I, Robinson is improving" his residence in the west end by the erection of a picket fence. Mr. and Mrs. John Minor were host and hostess at a pleasant card party given a few evenings ago. Major Lester Walker, who was critically ill with pneumonia for a week or more, is now convalescing". Several land buyers were in town yesterday, but whether they invested in irrigated tracts, we did not learn. Water has been turned into the Cody & Dillon ditch and the flow is found amply sufficient to water all land under the ditch, Dr. Butt does crown and bridge work, also metal and vulcanite plates. - Alex Adams went toXexington "Wednesday to have an examination made by the board of pension ex miners with a view of getting a pension, He was accompanied by W. C. Elder. Tickets for the Engineers' May Party are selling" rapidly and there is no doubt but this event will be largely patronize. The concert 6(iMby,;Bartlinsr's orchestra, which pre-' Pn??- - - - - - ...... m' --cedes the grand march, will be worth more than the price of admis sion. "5 - rj". - Watchman Sawyer claims to have driven thirty-nine tramps out of town night before last. This ac counts for the present scarcity of tourists around town. If "Buck" keeps up the good work during the summer season he will deserve the thanks of bur people. Last Saturday evening one of 'M.. C. Harrington's children ran against and knocked over a piano lamp which resulted in igniting the window curtains. Prof. Garlicks, who was present at the time, ex tinguished the flames, but in doing so had his hands somewhat burned. Dr. Butt, dentist, willloca.eiu North Platte about April 15tth Office in McDonald's block. A telegram was received from deputy secretary state Evans Wed nesday stating that he had sold the $8,000 warrant, drawn in favor of Lincoln county by the state, at par. The brokers have raised a question as to the validity of the relief bill else the warrants would sell at a premium. At a meeting of the fire depart ment Wednesday evening S. L. Bristol was elected chief and W. H. C. Woodhurst assistant chief. It was naturally supposed that H. O. Evans would be re-elected, but he failed to secure the necessary num ber of votes. The new officers are thoroughly competent and the de partment will in no way suffer by their election. Every man and women in North Platte should attend one of the sev eral churches next Sunday. This journal can assure them that such action will result not only profitably but pleasantly, bermons appro priate to the day will be delivered by the pastors, and as is always the case, specially prepared music will be rendered by the choirs. Another attraction will be the new gowns and hats worn by the ladies. The Tribuxe of May 3d will be issued solely by the members of the ladies' auxiliarv of the Y. M. C. A. Not only will the ladies have charge of the local and news col umns, but of the advertising columns as well, and all revenues from the latter source will go into the treasury of that organization. There will be local, telegraph and society reporters, advertising soli citors and proof readers, and the isse of May 3d will undoubtedly eclipse any paper ever issued in North Platte. We trust our busi aeos -ate will respond liberally to ike iraqHtstsJor special advertise- Have you seen that $50 Ladies Bicycle at I.e.-M. Newton's. The,, bright sunny days that have caused, the merchants to resurrect their canvas awnings. Wm. Hayes, head push of the North Platte broom factory is visit ing friends in Peublo this week. Ben Dikeman a few days ago purchased 320 acres of railroad land in town 15, range 32 northwest of town. The Cody Guards are having a little tempest in a teapot with - one of their officere, which will probably not end every seriously. Prof. Garlichs has organized a five-piece orchestra and will soon be in position to furnish music for dances and entertainments. . C. P. Boss and Prank Mc Chesney are in Keith County this week surveying, an irrigation ditch on the rancli of M. A. Daugherty. The bicycie dealers of the city seem to be having a good trade, and the fellow who does not have a wheel is not in the swim to any ex tent. W. N. Gooden, ot Eaton, Colo., passed several days in town this week and while here sold the "coun ty relief commission five carloads of seed potatoes. It is semi-officially announced that one of our most pleasant young ladies will be wedded on Monday evening next to a young man living in Cheyenne. Walter Ross, 'formerly con nected with the Sidney Telegraph, passed a few days in town this week. Mr. Ross will start for New York next week on a bicycle. A director of the agricultural society informs us that it is a ques tion whether a county fair will be held this fall. If the season proves a favorable one for crops a fair will be held, otherwise not. Miss Mazie Cunningham and Asa Fairchild completed their course at the business college yes terday and were given diplomas. The latter will go to Denver some time next week to look up a posi tion. Dr. Vorhees Lucas, who grad uated last week from the Omaha medical college, arrived in town a few days ago and will locate here permanently. The Doctor, it will be remembered, formerly clerked in Longley's drug store. Easter at the Methodist Epis copal church will be an interesting occasion . Besi des the morning ser vice with the usual offering to mis sions, there will be. a special s'ervice in the evening conducted by the Sunday school. Everybody is wel come. Don't forget that a new dentist will open an omce in McDonald s block about April 15th. Give mm a call. The annual parish meeting of the Church of Our Saviour will be held on Easter Monday evening at seven o'clock. The usual reports will be made, and a new vestry elected. A full attendance, not onlv of communicants, but of all members ot the consrrecation, is. earnestly requested. On the evening of the 19th inst. a public ball will be given at the opera house in connection with a gift presentation now being pre pared by several young men. Prof. Stuff will have charge of the dance, which insures an excellent time for all participants. Prof. Garlichs' new orchestra will furnish the music. It is hoped that the attendan.ee at the concert to be given by the Y. M. C. A. next Monday evening will be largely attended. Not only be cause the programme is an excel lent one, but for the reason that the funds thus received are badly needed by the association in order to make improvements in the rooms. The price of admission is placed at so low a nsrure that anybody can afford to go and hear this musical treat. Dr. sutt, who win open an office in McDonald's block, does first-class dentistry m all its qranches. Sunday, Easter day, there will be the usual Easter services at the Church of Our Saviour. Holy communion at 7:45 a. m. Full Eas ter service with holy communion at 10:30 a. m. Children's service with carols and missionary offerings at 3:30 p.m. (the two Sunday schools uniting in this) and evening sevice and sermon at 7:30. There will be baptism of children at the after noon service. Everyone welcome to all services. Messrs. Spaudling & Jennings, of Gothenburg", have been in town for several days with a view of pur chasing H. S. Keith's stock of hard ware. Up to noon to-day the deal had not been made, but it is likely the transfer will ocoir. Mr. Keith will retain possession of the stock of furniture and continue ia that business. Messrs. Soandlinsr & Jennings are energetic business awn and as such Tms Txnrojte North as was i The city council will meet in regular session nextMonday even mg. The home, of Geo. G. McKay on West Third St. was gladdened on Tuesday of this week hy the ar rival of a bright new girl baby. The show'window of the Fair store has attracted a great deal ot attention this week by the splendid manner in which it has been draped by the clerks. We are requested to invite all members of the Grand Army of the Republic to attend the funeral ser vices of Wm. "Emerson to be held to-morrow afternoon. As some of the members of the cornet band will be out, of town,, and other wise engaged the proba bilities are that a concert will not be given to-morrow night, expected. H. S. Stuff will resume his in structions in dancing next week. Quite a number are desirous of learning the new dances which will be introduced at the May ; Party and have secured Mr. Stuffs ser vices." From the manner in which nursery stock is being received this week it is evident that an unusual number of trees will be planted in and around the city this spring. A large part of the stock received con sists of fruit trees. By one of those annoying little errors which occasionally will creep into even the most carefully edited newspaper, the types made us say in Tuesday's paper that "Fred'k Barber" would sing a solo at the Y. M, C. A. concert. It should have read Fred'k Baker. A telegram received from Nor folk yesterday announced the death of Wm. Emerson the night before. The deceased was adjudged insane last summer and taken to the Nor folk asylum. The remains will ar rive here to night and the funeral services will be held at the Metho dist church to-morrow afternoon. The funeral will be in charge of the Grand Army of the Republic of which the deceased was a mem ber. Mr. Emerson wss a resident of North Hlatte for many years and was well known in the city and county. It is believed that a large num ber of farmers of Iowa and the east ern part of this state will take ad vantage of thei excursion rates which the Union Pacific offers from Omaha to western Nebraska. These low rates are offered land seekers in order that they may investigate the irrigated lands of this section. It is therefore likely that we will have a number of the excursionists in town the early part of next week, and it is only proper that they be shown the country by our citizens, and especially by the owners of ditches. PURELY PERSONAL. ; - - a- i ; . : - ,ir . . . s H . yes- are Mrs. D. W. Saxe went to Omaha this morning. Lester Eells went to Omaha terday morning. Mr. and Mrs. J. H. Hershev in town to-day.

Frank Murphy and family, who had been visiting North Platte friends for ten days, left last night for their home at Medicine Bow, Wyo. E. B.

Cwnton the Jeweler wishes to fix the attention of the public upon the fact that he has an unusually large and handsome line of Silver Novelties adapted to those in search of something of this kind. His prices upon the same would almost lead one to believe that we are approximating the era of free, silver g to all, rich and poor. r K c CLINTON, The Jijweler. . ft all si i 'Iff Thmembers ot the Gordon cornet band will be entertained next Wednesday evening at the residence of J. J. Sullivan. Some Omaha friends of the family are ex? peered to be present. Rev. A. W. Graves went to Ogalaila last week to deliver an address before a Sunday-school convention,, but on account of the storm the convention was m post poned until the 19th and 20th inst. Appropos with the bright spring season the dental parlors of Dr. F. J. Morrill are undergoing a siege of house-cleaning and remodeling and when the decorators have finished their work the Doctor may well boast of .one of the coziest little offices in the state. The rapidly increasing patronage of this pop ular jourig dentist demands more commodious quarters and increased facilities. By strict business in tegrity and superior workmanship he has built around him a remark able practice in a short time,- necessitating the securing of an assistant in the person of Dr. E. E. Northru'p, of Chicago, an ex pert in mechanical dentistry. Time was when people thought it neces sary to go to Lincoln or Omaha when in need of the" services of a tfr first class dentist but those days have passed. With, an equipment ot the most modern and "up-to-date" style and the services of a competent assistant anything in the way of dental work may be relied nponAto be' handled in a legitimate, responsible and satis factory manner.
