BAIINEY GUIN'AN SELLS ONE
OF HIS FAlfllS FOR $28,000.-
Barney J. Gulnon, one of tho-most
succeasful farmers south of tlio river
sold what Is known as his homo place,
six miles southwest of town, last Sat
urday to Wm. Scott of Wood River for
a consideration of 28,000. This tract
of 320 acros was purchased cloven
years ago by Mr. Gulnnn for $G,000.
At that time there wore no buildings
on tho land, scarcoly a fenco post, and
tho general aspect was that df a wild
erness, for though part of tho 'land
had previously been farmed In a hap
hazard way, wecdB had been allowed
to have full Bway. Mr. Gulnan came
horo from Wood River, a section of,
Nebraska whero thoy farm woll, and
ho Boon transformed tlio tract Into
one of the best Improved farms on tho j
Bouth side. He erected a nico homo,'
a big barn and substantial grainorlcs,!
hog houses, chicken nouses' and other;
buildings and abovo all ho kopt evory-'
thing noat and attractive. It was a
farm that appealed to any probable !
purchaser, hence when he concluded
to sell ho had no trouble In finding a'
purchaser at a good price. And'
"Barney" clears up about $17,000 over'
and abovo his original Investment of
$6,000 for tho Innd and $5,000 for tho
Improvements,
Mr. Guinan will not leave Lincoln
coujity. Last January ho bought from
tho Beer estpto 320 acres of land ad-1
Joining his home place on the east and
adjoining tho Ebrlght farm on the
west, and he proposos to lmprovo this
tract oven bettor than ho had Improv
ed tho homo jilaco, and that Is where
ho will reside. Ho will give posses-'

CEMETERY BOARD WILL
PURCHASE ADDITIONALLAND.
Tho'Ccmetcry Board has, Saadoa'r
rangements.to puirchnso six Macros of
land Just west of tho present cemetery
and the City Council has approved the
purchase. This Is necessary because
of the rapid manner In which tho old
cemetery is being filled. Slnco tho
City became owner a year ago and tho
cemetery has been so improved In np
pearanco, burials havo greatly In
creased and thoro have been a number
cf Instances where bodies that had
beon burled In other places, havo been
disinterred and roburlcd in tho North
Platto cemetery.
Thoro is Just ono thing that is hold
ing back the good appearanco of the
North Platto cemetery and that Is tho'
failure of quite a number to order tho
removal of tho curbings about their
lots. Already, In less than a year
from the tlmo tho order was mode by
the Board, moro than half of tlio
curbings havo beon removed. Ah
soon as tho curbings aro removed
from tho lots- tho sexton at tho ceme
tery tjakes charge and full care of tho
lots, sows them to grass, waters tho
same, nnd gives every lot all tho nec
essary care and attention without any
expense to tho owners. It is Impos
sible for the Cemetery Board to go to
this expenso whero oufrblngs are In
place and these lots aro not cared for.
Tho Cemetery Board has power of
law to compel tho immedlato removal
of all curbings but in order to avoid
friction, the Board desires that tho
lot owners cither remove their curb
ings or request tho box ton at tho ccme
tery to do so. There Is no charge made
for removing them. All that Is neces
sary Is" for the lot owners to advise
W. R. Maloney, president of tho Board,
Mrs. L. G. Basklns, secretary, or Mr.
Hamilton, tho, sexton at the cemetery
that tho owners aro willing to havo
tho curbings removed.
::o::
Tho Chautauqua.
Tho Chautauqua which Is bolng
held in the city this weok has not
beon largely patronized. Why tho
people aro so indifferent to this op
portunity for Instruction and amuse
ment is not altogether clear, for not
withstanding the wnr other classo.q
of amusement are apparently as liber
ally patronized as over before.
It is not because the talent of tho
present Chautauqua Is lacking In Its
worth, for the attractions are the
equal of any we have had In previous
years.
'The Chautauqua has always been a
thoroughly American institution but
has never been able to do as great a
service as at the present ilmo. Tho
North Platto Chautauqua Is maintain
ing this high standard In an admir
able way as Is evidenced by tho fine
array of talent stressing the Import
ance of whole-hearted Americanism;
tho patriotic appeals that tho lec
turers make to the audiences. The
government thoroughly endorses the
Chautauqua this year, bollevlng that
through the agency of tho lecturers
patriotism can bo awakened and
maintained. President Wilson, in
speaking ot Chautauquas, Bald:
"Let me express the hope that you
will, let no discouragement weaken
your activities and that the people
will not fall in the support of a pat
riotic institution that, may bo said to
be an integral part of tho national
dofonse."
Secretary of War Baker says: "I
am constantly facing the splendid re
sults of tho work done by the Chau
tauquas in this country In creating
nnd sustaining a Bound! patriotic
public feeling and In carrying for
ward the great national enterprises
which tho government Is necessarily
bringing to tho attontlon of our
people; and I want you to know that
as an officer of tho government, I not
only apprcciato tho Importance of tho
lecture platform as a means of com
munication and expansion, but also
appreciate tho work which you and
your associates are doing as a con
tribution to our national causo."

will bo shdwn atuho Keith theatre
next Monday and Tuesday. It Is an
adaptation, by Charles Malgne, from
Maeterlinck's ' masterpiece, which
attracted wide attention in the drama
tic and literary world. Whilo it dealt
with subjects of great profundity In
an allegorical manner, It was easily
understood. The great author took
for his ceptral figures a little boy and
girl, and for them he drew asldo tho
curtaln of life, delved Into tho past
and touched eloquently upon tho great
Beyond.
In tho form of a play, as produced
In London and later In New York, tho
story teemed with dramatic interest,
and Instead of a heavy preachment or
a dry sormon It dovlaped Into a virile
presentation, sparkling with vivacity.
In adapting this work to motion pic
tures, director Maurice Tournour, who
.staged the production for Artcraft.
has carried out tho Idea of tho author
In making tho photoplay understand
able. He discussed the scones with
tiny actors, who aro theoretically tho
leading characters believing that If
theso children can grasp tho story, tho
average patron of a moving-plcturo
theatre, with tho aid of tho lucid
titles which embellish the film, should
easily follow tho play nnd understand
the allegory.
The result is a unlquo play, ot
stupendous magnitude, in which Is
Incorporated tho highest technique of
, photographic art, with multlplo film
exposures rqulrlng infinite care and
patience.
I Settings of colossal size and en
sembles of hundreds of people make
this photoplay a mighty spectacular
offering in which tho artistic details
have been carefully looked after.
