The man who hurries into one of our Ten Dollar Suits saves money, for no where else can he buy the same quality of goods the same fit for the same money. But, perhaps, he wants a swell suit, better fabric. If so, he can lay down Eighteen or Twenty Dollars and take away from our store a suit good enough to wear to any party or reception. Our line is so large, so complete, that we can satisfy anybody, everybody. In Furnishing Goods, Hats and Shoes, we also take the lead.

Jennings is visiting rela tives in. town to-day. Guy Laing returned this week from a ten days' visit at his ranch in Cheyenne county. Miss Minta Martin, of Los Ansreles, Cal., arrived in the city this morning and will pass the sum mer with her sister, Mrs. Fred Ginn. Dr. McCabe was summoned to Cottonwood Wednesday to render medical aid to Mrs. Baege, wife of the superintendent of the cemetery who is seriously ill. From a I?axton correspondent of the News we learn that "Will Jeffers of this city, late night oper ator at Paxton, has been given the day trick, at Julesburg. A fen year old son of Wm. Edis had a hand badly lacerated yester day afternoon by a horse throwing him against a barb wire fence, Dr. McCabe was summoned to dress the wound.

It is said that many cattle died in the counties west of us from the effects of eating" the red root pig weed and lambsquarter. It seems that cattle love to browse on these weeds, which causes them to bloat and die. Col. Hooker died in Omaha last nin-ht. and his remains will be 0 , taken to Des Moines for interment. M. C. Keith will, go down to-night to attend the iuneral. Colonel Hooker was well known by many North Platte people. -News' reached this city this forenoon of the deafh at Gothen burg of Ben L.

The supreme court has reversed the decision and remanded for trial the case of George vs. McCullough, taken up from this county on error.

After a few words in private, as Mr. Cody was leaving the building", Mr. Burke called the reporter and said: "This is Colonel Codv. He wishes to say that he is very tired this evening" and does not want to dis cuss politics." The Colonel then said good even ing", stepped into his carriage, and was gone. It is probable, from the way Major Burke and Nate Salisbury look at the matter, that Colonel ination for any office whatever is not regarded seriously by his as sociates of the Wild West show.

Administration partisans assert that Mr. Cleveland is handling" the Cuban affair to please himself, and we are compelled to believe it. He is certainly not handling" it to please anybody else. New York Mail and Express. The end of the session is in sight and the Pacific railroad debt fund ing" job has not yet been railroaded through either house. Mr. Hunt ington's confidence in his grip upon congress must have been rudely shaken during" the past few mon ths. Republicans have no desire to see the democratic party split in the middle at the Chicago convention. They wish the concern would hold together and try to make the cam paign interesting. Whether split or united the party is for the pres ent a back number. Ex. It is the stamp of the government which gives value to silver and gold, say the free silverites. If this is true why is it that coins short in weight, through abrasion or mutil ation, will not be received at the value placed on them by the govern ment stamp? Even the government itself will not receive such coins at their stamped value. Will our free silver "stompers" rise and explain? Louisville Journal. A potato famine has lately ma- teralized in the northwest, but it will begin to let up in a week or two When the new crop from Arkan sas commences to take the cars tor a trip northward. The Minnesota farmers who were so disgusted by their immense crop last fall which rendered it unsalable on the spot for what it cost to dig them that they left them in the ground, will be sorry they wasted any now that the price has shot up all around them. Potatoes are a good thing to store in the cellar to await a better market. An old soldier subscriber has written the Bee to call attention to the result which depreciated 16 to 1 free silver coinage would have on the men who are drawing pensions for disabilities incurred in the mili tary service of their country. A 50-cent dollar, of course, would be equivalent to cutting every vet eran's pension down to one-half its present purchasing power. Owing to the cheapening of production the pension of $12 a month buys now two and three times the necessaries and comforts that it did when the pension laws were first put into operation. l'ree silver coinage would, if it accomplished what its advocates claim for it, restore prices to the scale of 1873 and reduce the old soldiers' resources in a corres ponding" ratio. All this has been brought out time and time again, and it is difficult fo believe that many rational old soldiers can be in lavor or tne tree silver program. Bee. Buoklea'B Arnica Salve.

The B. & M. railroad comany has received a contract for hauling 300 trains of cattle from Concordia.Kas., to Billings, Mont., for feeding pur poses. This means about 6,000 cars, and as the cattle are yearlings, and about thirty can be packed in a car, it means the shipment of about 180,000 head. In another year these cattle will be reshipped to Omaha or Kansas City. The Elkhorn road also has a contract for hauling 100 trains from Super ior to Belle Fourche, and these will be returned to the stock yards and slaughter houses next vear.

There is only one way to cure deafness, and that is by constitutional remedies. Deafness is caused by an inflamed con dition of the mucous lining of the Eus tachian Tube. When this tube is in flamed you have a rumbling sqund or imperfect hearing, and when it is entire ly closed, Deafness is the result, and un less the inflamation can bo taken out and this tube restored to its normal con dition, hearing will be destroyed forever; nine cases out of ten are caused by ca tarrh which is nothing but an inflamed condition nf the mucous surfaces.
