The county commissioners are in session this week. H. V. Hilliker is building- a one room addition to his residence on west Fourth street. Charley Hupfer, formerly of ' this city, will be married at Man chester, Mo., on the 16th inst. Peter Burke to-day shipped a car load of baled hay to Chicag-o for the purpose of testing- that market. The Cody Guard this morning - moved its portable property to its new quarters in the Keith block on Front street. The county judge and the clerk of the district court have been kept "busy for a day or two certifying- to pension vouchers. A -farewell reception was given to Rev. W. E. Hardaway and wife at the parsonage last evening by the members of the M. F. church and their friends. The Inter-state Milkmaids' Convention to be held in this city on the 17th inst. will prove a highly interesting affair. You should make. arrangements to attend. The I. O. T. M. sociable in .the . Douglas' store room last night was quite well patronized, and the re ceipts will materially help the treasury-of the organization. Mrs. C. H. Rogers, of Ogalalla, was here having dental work done at Dr. Morrill's this week. An exchange says Texas has fifteen counties without a postoffice, and sixty-four counties without a newspaper in their limits. No won derLtheJuone Star statesolid-. ly democratic. Pearl Armbus on Wednesday received fromJhe'. secretary of the . statelfairassociation a draft for $5.00, being the amount of the pre mium due him for making the best broom in the state in the year 1895. The young men's republican club held a small meeting last night at the courthouse which was not as largely attended as it should have been, probably owing to the insuf ficient length of notice being given. . -No special business of importance was transacted. The next meet ing -will be held at the office of C. P. Ross. While a couple of Bob Ginn's "were yesterday playing with a liatchet one of them neatly and successfully amputated the third finger of the right hand of the other. The wound was promptly dressed and the little sufferer is . now resting as easy as circum stances will permit. The friends of the family sympathize with them on account of the mishap. DR. W. A. DeBERRY, DENTIST, : Office in First Ntl. Bank Bldnjr. : It is now announced that the Missouri Pacific RTy will be extend ded from Hastings through to Den ver, and bids have been asked for "the construction of the same. Sen ator Brice, of Ohio, is said to be the president of the new company. With Frank Reardon's well known ' friendly feel'.ng for North Platte it should not be a hard matter to in duce the building of a branch of the same into this city. It is said the Wabash and Milwaukee roads ere interested in the project as well as the Missouri Pacific. This morning as train No. 23 was pulling out of town the engi neer had occasion to call up a brakeman to open the switch to the mam line, and. the waterworks whistle chimed out a 'fire alarm which caused the fire department and citizens to turn out to see if there was a fire. None was dis covered. At least this is one way the alarm may be accounted for, when there is no- suitable electric system in use upon which our peo ple may depend. Some time ago the city council made a move to have the system put in effective ' shape, but for some reason this has " ;not-been done. Railroad business appears to foe materially increasing. Dr. McCabe is preparing to put anew heating apparatus in his family residence. Rev. Beecher will deliver liis, initial sermon at the Episcopal church Sunday next Harry Coleman is quite ill with some malarial disease; so much so that a nurse is required. Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Fikes re turned a few days ago from their visit to Fort Madison, Iowa. The members of the Eastern Star lodge were .very pleasantly en tertained Wednesday afternoon by Mrs. H. T. Rice. C. P. Davis came down from Sidney last night for a visit with friends. His wife has been in town during the past week. John Spleithof, who has lately been living in the south part of the county, this week sold his farm and left tor unknown parts. Dr. Morrill nas iust received $300 worth ot artificial teeth. There will be preaching at the Eiptist church next Sunday at 10:30 a. m. and 7:30 p. m. A cor dial invitation to all to attend. Dr. Morrill has obtained Dr. Mueller's painless extraction of teeth from Berlin. This method is absolutely safe and proving success ful wherever used. The cast for the "Dees trick Schnle," to be given under the aus pices of the Y. M. C. A. about the middle of the month, has been made and rehearsals will probably be held next week. Doctor Aiey, of Lincoln wii asrain be in North Platte at the Hotel Neville, Monday, October 14, where he may be consulted by all in need of his services. He stays one day only. Dr. W. A. DeBERRY, DENTIST, Office in First Ntl. Bank Bldng. KeuDiicrn neauq natters lor the campnin have bsen opened up in the o&ice of G. C. McAllister, in the Grady block, this city, where interested persons can ascertain the latest phases ot the local can yass upon inquiry. Frontier county has a county division fight on hand. It is pi posed to divide the county by line from north to south, and name the eastern portion Mills county It promises to be the main issue in the local campaign. Dr. Morrill bus a safe method of extracting teeth without pain to The case of the city of North Platte vs. B. I. Hinman for illegally maintaining a wooden awning con trary to the city ordinances was dismissed by police judge Ray Tuesday afternoon in a technical decision in which the question of the validity of the ordinance was not raised. In effect it leaves the matter just as before, with the de pendent liable to arrest at any fu ture time for a repetition of the offense. Elsewhere in this issue ap pears a condensed statement of the First National Bank, of this city. It shows a very healthy condition or that financial institution, two items being particularly noticea oie. viz: "vjasn ana signt ex change," and "Deposits." The former represents the supply of cash on hand, while, the latter shows the savings of its patrons. These indicate thrift upon the part of the management of the bank, and also economical habits upon the part ot our citizens. This morning shortly after one o'clock our citisghs were awakened by the fire alarm. Investigation developed the fact that it was a small barn in flames on the prem ises of Mrs. P. Manion in the Third ward. Owing to the inflammable nature of the contents and the start the fire obtained, the struct ure was quickly consumed, almost before the fire department could accomplish anything. Fortunately at the time of the fire it was slight ly raining which prevented the flames from spreading to other property. The building and con tents, consisting of a couple of tons of hay and a buggy, are a total loss, with no insurance. A " - i ... Aii injunction suit nas oeen filed in the next term of the district court, next month, by the Equitable Farm & Stock Improvement Co. from re-opening a road through its lands southeast of this city. The highway is what is known as the Bratt road through the latter's ranch. It appears that it was at one time a legally established road, but it is said to have been vacated by the county commissioners with out a petition praying therefor, thes closing it to the public, and of wlilci action there is not a proper record. The county found itself similarly situated in regard to a road through Giltrian canyon, and was mulcted into damageson this account. ' j Mrs. H. M. Grimes entertained a number of her lady friends yester day" afternoon at the family resi dence on west Second street. P. F. Dolan, of Maxwell, was in town Wednesday and reported that he had . just sold forty-three head of two-year old steers which averaged 1070 pounds each. A. D. William and Joe Beeler have exchanged residences, and the former now occupies what is known as the Bob Law property, while the latter, is living in Jude Neville's place. Manager Lloyd discovers upon consulting hiscontracts that the date.for "The Pay Train," which he supposed was to be here to-morrow night is instead Nov. 4th. War ren has wasted a great deal of vigorous language upon the above subject for-which he is now heartily sorry. V. VonGoetz and John H. Day have signified their intention of moving their stocks of merchandise from the Third ward into the Otten stein building on Spruce street about the 1st of November. This will bring them more into the cen ter of business and trade, aud will no doubt be appreciated by many of their customers. J. R. Bangs returned Wednes day night from his trip up into the cuttle country northwest of here. He is very much in love with the country around Sheridan, Wyo., aud brought back a potato grown in that -locality which weighed three pounds and three-quarters. He says they have them up in that country which will weight foar and one-haif pounds. The.o.intyaiumissioners have organized a rew bridge district lor tlie purpose of voting bonds to build . i i -t a u nage across rue lNorun river north of Nichols. This will prove a great convenience to those of the north side country, and more par ticularly those living under the Birdwood canal, who will in the future have more io ship than in io.-ner years. The ladies of the Eastern Star lodge held a sociable Tuesday even :ngoutatthe Cody ranch. Many of those in attendance went out upon hay-i acks. .A very pleasant time is reported. As if to mar the happiness of one present, Mrs. C. F. ladings had the misfortune to lose a valuable diamond ring, which diligent. search lheveor has failed to disclore its whereabout?. Later Mr. Goodman found the ringiast evening concealed in the hay upon which the party had ridden The statistical report o: the Y. M. C.

While up 'in that country they were caught the recent cold snap, for which theyf were improperly' equipped, and in consequence had a very lively ex perience, although no actual suffer ing was occasioned. Last year vigorous efforts were made to rpund up all of Mrs. R. Watts' cattle in that locality, as she had sold sher ranch property to Mr. Diilon whojs utilizing the same as a horse ranch, yet at the late round up there were round about sixty head of cattle bearing the old familiar "W" brr ud.

The blue prints showing the proposed changes are already here Will Briggs' injuries at Boulder last week are not so serious as at first thought. From a leltcr re ceived from him from St. Luke's hospital in that city hewrites: "I was knocked off from a 'furniture car and struck on my fee':, throwing the left ankle out of ioiiit, and breaking one bone above the ankle It wiI take about three months be- kre I can do anv work." It is thoujrht the company is to blame for having" an obstruction overhang ing" the track preventing the free passage of trains. Mars Nobbs, an t-xira passenger conductor between this cilv and 0maha, had the misname to have . 1 n.b iiduu tui ur uy tue insrjuess wheels "Wednesday night down at Kearney. Hewes coming to this city on train No. 1, and wh";.e at rue Cotton city walked ahead along his train to tell the engineer to stop at Overton, which is a flag station, as he had a passenger for there. In aitempllng to board the smoking car he struck his foot against some obstruction and fell, aud in at tempting to push himself out of the way ot danger got his hand across the rail with the result that it was severed by the wheels. It is said that had he not been assisted by a Kearney policeman he would prob ably have been killed. An amputa tion was performed about fonr inches from the wr-st but it is sid another opetat'.on w 'l have to be perLormed.because of the arm being so badly mangled.
