H. T. Club Meeting.
The H. T. Club met Saturday
evening at the home of one of
its members, Miss Adda Kockeu.
The meeting was rather more in
formal than the club meetings
usually arc and a wide range of
topics -was discussed. An inter
esting letter from the cx-prcsident,
Miss Frances Clayton, waB read.
It was decided to hold a reception
for a number of friends of the club
at Federhoof's hall. Thursday even
ing, February 22nd. Although the
club members are all exceedingly
intellectual they are not above en
joying the material things of this
life and consequently they very
heartily enjoyed a delicious lunch
which was served during the latter
part of the evening by Miss Kockeu.
Looking for Witnesses.
Sheriff Johnson, of Julesburg,
was in town yesterday looking
after some witnesses to be used
in a horse stealing case which is
to be tried there this week. Her
bert Morris and Leforrest Libbey
are under arrest for horse stealing
but Morris seems to be thn prin-
cible offender, Libbey having kept
the horses on his ranch supposing
that the deal whereby he became
the owner of them was straight.
Morris gave a North Platte boy
who was working for Libbey at
the time the stealing occurred,
two horses for work he. had pre
formed for him. The boy brought
them down here and disposed of
one of them, Fred Tobas finally
purchasing it. It now transpires
that both of the horses were
stolen.
V. V. Xc "Receipt.
Up to Saturday night over 900
cars of ice containing about
15.500 tons had been received and
stored in the ice houses here. It is
figured that it will take between
150 and 200 more cars to fill all of
the houses, The work of storing
the ice will have taken about six
weeks when it is finally completed.
There have been all sorts of diffi
culties to contend with in the work,
Next year it is planned to put in a
cable system at the lake whereby
ten cars can be loaded in a very
short space of time and this in
connection with the elevators at
the houses will greatly expedite
the work of handling the Ice. The
Crop which is now being harvested
at Pawnee Lake is the finest ice
that has been handled this year,
It is about twelve inches thick and
very clear. Sunday the wind blew
water and sand on the ice and the
cutting was stopped but it was
resumed again this morning.
Morris Tones arrived from Ked
Oak Friday night and will remain
here a week or ten days disposing
of some of the horses belonging to
the M, C. Keith estate. The horses
which are not disposed of here will
be shipped to Mr. Jones' farm near
Red Oak to be disposed of at private
sale.
The Hendry farm riear Monroe
was recently Bold to a large seed
growing firm to be used as a seed
farm. It contains 400 acres and
was Bold for $50 an acre, the high
est price ever paid in Platte county
for a large tract of laud. It is ex
pected that the new company will
spend ubout $50,000 per year in
tWlUmUuts fdr ialidr, etc.

JBETWEEN TIIE RIVERS.
The blue rock Bhoot at Hershey
ast Friday was attended by a
large crowd but only sixteen took
part in the shooting. J. M. Dwyer
and Everett Ware were chosen cap
tains. At the end of the first round
of five shots each, Dwyer's side was
five points in the lead, but at the
end of the second round of five shots
each it was a tie with one man to
hhoot on Ware's side, who was his
father who is about sixtv-seven
years of age. He took his gun and
toed the mark and very easily broke
two out of five putting Ware's side
two points in the lead. The losers
then invited the winners to the
hotel where a bountiful oyster sup
per was in waiting and to which all
present did ample justice, It was
a jolly crowd and everything passed
off as slick as a pin. The number
of points made were as follows:.
Dwyer'B side 25. and Ware's side 27.
