ITS SAD BUT TRUE! POOR OLD
He passed away on January 15th, 1S97, at 7 o'clock in the morning. It required a hard strug
gle for us to give him up as he was a dear friend of ours. Full welL we remember how weused to
take him home with us, to eat, think and sleep with him; so my dear readers yon can imagine how
near and dear he was to us. But we have laid him to rest and wish him well, and hope our com
petitors will treat him with as much respect as we have. But our conscience is clear, as we have
done nothing we are sorry for. We are in it to a finish, with the largest stock of goods in the city

The passenger service on the
Union Pacific is very inconvenient
to the physicians of this city. If
one of them receives a summons bv
telegraph to Maxwell or Bradv
after the departure ot-2o. 2 in the
morning they often cannot reach
their patient until the arrival of 3To.
4 at night for the reason that per
mits to ride on freight trains will
not always be granted. Recently a
caseoccured in which the delav
pratically resulted in the death of
a patient A local physician re
ceived a call from a patient living
near Maxwell. The physician ap
plied for a permit to go down on
freight train No. IS but this was
denied. He was forced to wait for
No. 4 and when he reached his pa
tient the latter was beyond relief.
Had the physician arrived ten
hours earlier the man's life could
have been spared. The Union Pa
cific company should certainly
issue a bulletin authorizing the
granting of permits allowing phy
sicians to "ride on any and all
freight trains.

Beach I. Hinman, in which the lat
ter is charged with violating the
awning ordiance, Jias been taken to
the supreme court.
George Ferbrache, of Birdwood,
charged with fracturing the dig

hearing Tuesday, but the witnessss
for the state failed to appear and
the case was dismissed.
Iu the case of Mrs. Savage
against C. L. Patterson, which
occupied the attention of the court
Wednesday, the jury brought in a
verdict for the plaintiff in the
sum ot one hundred dollars. Two
years ago the city marshal im
pounded eight head of horses,
which were later sold, under the
provisions of an ordinance, to C. L.
Patterson. Mrs Savage replevined
the stock from Patterson. The
first case was tried in a justice's
court in Medicine precinct and the
plaintiff won. The case was ap
pealed to the district court, and the
plaintiff again secured a verdict.
A motion for a new trial was
granted; on Wednesday it was tried
and a verdict awarded as above.
At the time the case was first in
stituted the city council agreed to
stand behind Patterson, the object
being to test the validity of the
ordinance, and as the measure has
been found faulty the city will have
to pay the damages.
The jury in the case of John Spies
against George Ruble, awarded the
plaintiff the sum of 390. Spies
rented land of Rnhle and put
m grain. Shortly after the latter
attempted to annul the lease and
plowed up the grain; hence the ver
dict for damages.
In the case of Jerry Laing against
James McCullough the jury was in
strucied to bring in a verdict for the
defeudant by reason of lack of tes
timony on the part of the plaintiff.
This forenoon the case of the

'X wish to give a brief
summary of my missionary work
for the last three months. I be
long to the Kearney Presbytery
and my territory includes the wes
tern part of Nebraska, where the
people are very poor and have
neither church or pastor.
During the last three months I
have traveled from 1500 to 2000
miles; organized from 15 to-20 Sun
day schools; visited from 300 to 400
families and distributed 200 bibles
and testaments, also many papers
and tracts.
I have supplied many Sunday
schools with supplies.
Many people in North Platte
have been very kind in helping me
in this work.
I have received a number of
barrels of clothing and also some
money which I have endeavored to
distribute where it would do the
most good and where it was most
needed.
If any of the Sunday schools

Hawley House, I will see that they
are supplied. "W. W. Scott.
