"In Dreamland", tho dramatic fan
tasy by Emmet Devoy, tho author
actor, bristles with unique situations.
Tho conventional has been successfully
avoided throughout and the play is re
freshingly novel in consequence. The
illusions, pantomine and electrical de
ceptions are startling from tho rise un
til the fall of the curtain.
During the past wek marringo
licenses were issued to two girls under
age, ono fifteen, the other sixteen and
one-half years old. In bo h cases tho
parents accompanied them before
Judge Elder and gave their consent.
Tho marrying of mero children should
bo prohibited by tho enactment of a
law. Think of a girl of fifteen or six
teen assuming the responsibilities of
married life when her conception of
things in general amounts to nothing.

Brings Serious Charge.
A special to the Stnto Journal from
York dated September 21st, says: C.
A. Kcefc has filed complaint in tho
county court against Geo'go M. Stry
kor nnd Samual C. Nelson charging
them with securing money by fraud
while acting an ngents for tho York
Alfalfa Milling company. Kcefo charges
that tho defendants havo appropriated
$5,000 worth of tho company's prop
erty to their own uso. Tho case will
come up for trial September 29. Tho
defendants gave bond for ?5.000. Tho
York Alfalfa Milling company is the
name uso by tha promoters who have
been attempting to establish an alfalfa
mill at this place.
Missionary Scott Retired.
W. Scott, who for fifteen or
W.
moro years has been a Presbytorian
Sunday school missionary in Western
Nebraska with headquarters at North
Platte, has been retired, probably bo-
causo ho hup outlived his usefulness,
at least a younger man has been ap
pointed to succeed him. Wo havo been
intimately acquainted with Missionary
Scott for a long term of years, and
havo found him a man willing to deny
himself in order to help others, a most
conscientious man and a willing worker.
To hi retired at his age after so long
service and not provide him with some
other work is certainly an uncharitable
act on the part of tho Sunday Bchool
missionary board.
Foot Ball Schedule.
Tho high school foot ball team has
dates for seven games, tho full number
for tho soason. Tho .teams against
which thny will play are the Loxington,
Kearney, Grand Island and Sterling
high schools and tho Kearney Military
Academy. Two games will bo played
with Lexington and Kearney nnd one
with each of tho other thrco teams,
and of the seven games, five will bo
played on tho local field. The first
gamo will be with Lexington on Octo
ber 8th on the North Platte field and
the Thanksgiving game will bo played
with tho samo teamat Lexington.
J no team is tnKlng daily practlco
under tho coaching of M. K. Neville
and Mr. Stone, both of whom aro well
up in foot ball.
The Selfish Husband.
Tho selfish husband is effectually
cured of a tendency to flirt by tho np
pearanco of daughtor of Venus with a
magic wand "In Dreamland". The
wand brings out so many startling
changes ns to mystify tho audience and
drivo the erring husband to tho verge
of distraction. Tho power of Venus,
to tho theatregoer, ppeara to bo om
nipotent. Sho launches thunderbolts,
destroys and builds up as tho whim
seizes her. This delightful fantasy
with Emmot Dovoy, tho author, in tho
rolo of the husband, and tho beautiful
Hermino Stono ns a daughter of Venus
supported by n enst of unusual excell
enco will bo the attraction at tho Keith
thoatro Saturday evening, September
25th.
Ten Thousand Bushels of Apples.
David Hunter, of tho Glenburnio
fruit farm north of Sutherland, was in
town Wednesday and projentod The
Tribune and others with baskets of
peaches grown in his orchard. Tho
peach crop this year is light, tho old
trees having passed their usefulness,
whllo tho othors aro yet too young for
heavy bearing, and his crop will bo
imited to sovonty-fivo bushels. Those
presented to this office wero as fine,
both in size and flavor, aa any wo havo
seen shipped in this season.
It is in apples that tho Glenburnio
orchard takes a stellur position this
season, Mr. Hunter feeling confident
that tho crop will total ten thousand
bushels. Already over 1.000 bushels of
fall varieties have been marketed, and
tnoy rorm but a small part of the crop.
Mr. Hunter nnticipatos no trouble in
finding a good market, as the annlo
crop is way short
