The Lamb in the Fold Sometimes a Wolf. I put the article in the paper some days ago, because 1 had just roasons for doing so; one, that I was living up to the law and expected others to do the same; others being that I had re parts or complaints from six different parties as to irregularities. These peoplo I could summon to my aid nt once if need he. My article was in the form of a warn ing, I said therefore, next time tho articles with the doctor's namo would bo published. One party had received a written communiciation. another still more direct, that of the use of the telephone when certain propositions wore made, three others otherwise solicited; and one verbal. I knew that I was privileged to keep tho names of the patients and the im plicated from tho delegation, and further told the said delegation from the said Medical Society they had the privilege to do as they pleased. Now believe me, there was none more willing for me to keep quiet than tho ones who seemed to be the busiest to ferret out tho offender. (The delegation excepted of course.) "However tho guilty con science needs no reproving." I am sorry for most, yes, all the mem bers of the Medical Society, for too often in other societies as well as med ical we have to shepherd the goats with tho sheep. (This being thir lair for protection and comfort.) Some alas! getting in othorwise than by the door, and the euro would not be by purging the society with hyssop to make it clean, but rather that each individ ual heart be washed and made whiter than snow. And if these fellows in doing as they do, show a lamentable amount of moral courage and fair play, I prefer to be the little pill doctor, showing a lamen table lack of the above (shall I say?) qualificationso Well may the finger of suspicion point to some of these arch conspirators for business, for not alone in tl e unethical bidding for same, there ia also the shady charging which eclipscB the burglar with hisbihy and gun. Now I believe it was written in the spirit of fair play, to protect the public as much as the doctoi, and not to bid for business as I hav'nt thus far found it necessary to send out the household to canvass. Respectfully yours, Adv John S. Twinkm, M. D. Schimmel McGce Nuptials. A very pretty wedding took place nt the Methodist parsonage nt 6 o'clock Wednesday evening when Miss Laura McGce and Christian Schimmel were united in the eoly bonds of matrimony.

The groom was nttended by Mr. McKague of Brady, and the father McGee, gave tho bride nway. After the ceremony they were j token to the home of tho bride south of Brady where a sumptous wedding supper was served to sevonty guests. The bride is a charming young lady of that vicinity and has many friends there and in this city. The groom is a prosperous young farmer of Dayken, Nebr., and has n home prepared for his bride.

XX I Miss Roso Reillcy left tho first of tho week for her home in Cheyenne after a short visit of two weeks in the city with her sister, Mrs. Dan Roberts, and other relatives. Mrs. Roberts accom panied her for a visit of two weeks with her mother. If you put $1,500 to $2,000 into a house, you would not think of lotting it go without insurance. Not for even a day.

The Howe and Maloney furniture store has received an educational dis play of the different materials used in the making of linoleum, and have it en display in their north show window. The materials are very interesting to study and it is well worth one's time to look them over. It will also give an idea of the expense of making linoleum. Some of the material is shown in the rough and the process of getting it ready for use is also shown. The dis nlav was furnished them by the Armstrong company of Lancaster, Pa., and was shown a short time ago in the Golden Eagle store in Denver. It was sent here from the Jones store in Kan sas City nnd will go from here to Car-son-Pirie-Scott company of Chicago. School children are especially invited to visit the store and look over the display and may feel free to ask questions about the materials. Notice, Prof. Leonhardt, tho piano maker and tuner, has had many complaints from people who do not know him per sonally, that other professed tuners have been representing themselves as Mr. Leonhardt, oi as his successor, or as his students. Prof. Leonhardt de sires to say that men making these claims are impostors, and those who employ those making such representa tions do so at their own risk. Why Pay Rent?

Tho school authorities aro working on plans to stoit basket bnll in the high school and exect to have both boys' nnd girls' teams in the field in the near future. Negotiations are now on for renting the Lloyd opera house for the use of the students in prnctice and in gomes. Gymnasium apparatus and shower batliB will bo instnlled. Teams will be orgnnized in all the classes for inter-class contests and in this way more material will be devel oped and better opportunities will be given to discover the best players. Basketball enthusinsts have hereto fore been few and far between in the local schools, but the game affords fine sport for the school and fills in the in termission botween football season and the soring athletics. The teams will only get started this year as the season is nearly over, but some good material will be developed and the players will be in good training for next season. It will also afford good practice for the football men in the forward pass. The local men showed up rather poorly in the forward pass in the trnme agninst i Omaha and it was only Omaha super I iority in this one play that won them the victory. The practice in passing and receiving will he a great help to the local men in the football drill of next Beason. Callender CASH STORE Our Spring and Summer Dress Goods are arriving daily.
