Time
Mr. Westervelt in Town.
E. M. Westervelt, right-of-way
agent for the Burlington, spent a day
or two in town this week, but his visit
had no significance in relation to tho
building of tho Burlington line up tho
Platte valley. His mission hero was to
investigate tho condition of the
houses purchased by tho company and
ascertain what repairs wero needed,
and other business of liko nature Mr.
Westervelt disclaimed any knowledge
as to the intention of his company in
building the Platte valley line.
A Satisfactory Play.
The largest audience of tho soason
was nresent at Tho Keith Wednesday
evening to witness tho presentation of
"Tho Modern Woodman" by local talent
under tho direction of W. M. Ellis, and
as a homo production it proved very
satisfactory to tho uttondanto. Tho
play was well staged, those essaying
tho parts had their lines well committed;
and ono commendable feature was tho
distinctness with which each rendered
their linesthe voices being distinctly
heard in all parts of tho houso. While
tho play presents tho principles and
bonofits of tho Modern Woodman fra
ternal order to a marked degree, theso
features are so woven Into tho plot as
to divest them of an attempt to make
tho play an advertisement of or for tho
order.
To commend those who rendered their
parts well would bo to commend all,
for each ono deserves credit for their
work, nnd yet wo cannot but refo" per
sonally to the energy displayed by
Master Roy Ames, as tho newsboy.
Tho success of tho play was largely
duo to the ablo direction of Mr. Ellis,
who is an actor of ability.
Notice.

Hupfer & Lowo arc in tho hands of
Mr. Lowe for collection. Debtors will
please see that their bills aro promptly

regrets that matters were so delayed

gives the nssuranco that North Platte
people will have an opportunity to
cook their Fourth of July dinners on
