and return to this county this fall.
John Lappan was around town Wed

Easter exercises will be held at the
Presbyterian church Sunday morning
at 11 o’clock, to which all are cordially
invited. It had originally been the in
tention to hold the services In the even
ing, but owing to the special meetings
at the Methodist church, the change
was made.
Walt Keeler who has been employed
in J. C. Smoot's tonsorial parlors the
past sixteen months, has resigned his
position there and purchased a shop in
Atkinson, to which place he went yes

stitute proceedings in the supreme court
against Holt county for damages in the
sum of $50,000. This case gredv out of
the prosecution of ex-Treasurer Meals
by the county board for a shortage in
his cash items, and on whose bond Mr.
Sullivan wts. The cases against the ex

The Sister of Charity thus gradually
was commenced the community of the
sisters of charity, servants of the sick
poor, writes Cardinal Gibbons in an
article giving the history of the “Sister
of Charity” in this and all ages, in the
April Ladies’ Home Journal. Made
moiselle LeGras, their first superioress,
was the daughter of Louis de Marillac
and Margaret de Cannes. She was born
in Paris, August 12, 1591. In 1613 she
married Anthony Le Gras, secretary of
Queen Mary de Medicis. Without neg
lecting her domestic affairs, she visited
the sick, consoled and instructed them.
On the death of her husband in 1625,
she consecrated herself to deeds of
charity, under the direction of St. Vin
cent. He therefore found no one more
worthy to be placed at the head df the
community he was forming.
' For plows, -harrows, cultivators, cheek
rowers, seeders, and in fact any and all
kinds of machinery, go to Biglin's. He
carries the largest stock in the city, and
his prices are sure to suit. 84-5
A question came up before the board
yesterday afternoon that was interesting.
A resident of Paddock township re
quested that his land be redeemed from
tax sale for the reason that he had paid
his taxes and held a receipt from John
Hopkins, who is now ex-tax collector of
that township, but who has failed and
refused and still fails und refuses to
make settlement with the county treas
urer, and for that reason this particular
piece of land and many- others were
sold for the taxes, as the county treas
urer’s books show that they never have
been paid. The question was discussed
pro und cop in several different lan
guages. and finally the county attorney
was called to give his opinion. The
great and mighty lawgiver retired into
some quiet nook far from the sight of
men, to deliberate, and while there was
no eclipse of the sun, earthquakes, tidnl
waves or other outward indications that
his bra:n was at work, he returned in
due time, with footsteps slow, head
bowed, and with other evidences that he
had in his possession an idea. His
opinion was, in - substance, that the
county should redeem the land sold un
der those circumstances, hut a brother
strong in the faith—none other' lliaa
John Crawford—moved the motion to
redeem be tabled, which was carried.
If the opinion of the county attorney is
good law the couuty will be called upon
to pay handsomely for the perverseness
of this alliance tax collector of Paddock.
Is it not about time to reform the
reformers?
In Kemoriim.
East Friday a telrgram was received
by T. D. Hanky, from Lake City, Colo.,
stating that his step-brother, John Mc
Carthy, was killed in an explosion that
occurred in the mine at that place at 10
o'clock that day. The remains were
prepared and shipped to this city for
interment, arriving Monday evening.
Eugene and Jerry McCarthy, a brother
and an uncle of the deceased, accom
panied the remains. Miss Mary Mc
Carthy, a sister of the deceased, who
resides at Butte, Mont., was telegraphed
for nnd also arrived Monday evening.
Just how the accident occurred is not
known. It appears however that John
and his partner were blasting; six boles
being charged and set off. Four of the
boles charged went of and two did not.
Then it Is supposed that the two young
men were recharging the holes, when
they went off and both men were in
stantly killed. John McCarthy was
born in Hancock. Mich., and was 33
yeirs old the 3d of February.
It is hard to see a sturdy oak, that has
weathered the breezes and withstood
the storms of many years on the hillside,
laid low by a cruel blow of the element];
still harder it is to see a young peach
tree in all its vigor and youth stricken
down, and So it was with John Me
Carthy. J ust budding forth into man
hood,, with a bright and glorious future
before him, to be stricken down with
out amoment’s warning, in the prime of
life and . young manhood, without, a
chance to say good bye to those whom
he lotted..' But such is life. -
Deceased was well known in this city,
having resided with his parents about.4
miles northeast of this eity for about
seven years. He was here visiting his
parents a year ago, and the 6th of last
April he left here for Colorado where
he was working.
•The fpneral took place Tuesday morn
ing from the Catholic church and the
remains were followed to their last rest
ing place by a large concourse, of sor
rowing relatives and friends, who went
to pay their last respects to the deceased.
' Tub Frontier Joins with numerous
friends in extending to the family and
relatives of the deceased its sympathy,
and hopes that they will" never again
be called upon to bear a like affliction.
Card of Thanks.
Feeling deeply grateful to those who
so kindly assisted us in our sad bereave
ment we desire in this manner to ex
press our heartfelt thanks. We
especially desire to thank those
friends of the Ute and Ulay
mines at Lake City, Colo., who so Kind
ly assisted us in preparing the remains
for shipment and for their expressions
of sympathy, and also to our friends in
O’Neill for their assistance and con
dolence. May God spare you from en
during a like affliction is our wish.

Easter Monday Ball.
The Liberty Hose Company will give
a ball on Easter Monday^ evening, April
3. The boys deserve a very liberal pat
ronage, they having purchased a build

and the proceeds of the dance will go to
pay for the same. Everybody, should
buy a ticket.
Bassett has got a new Bank. That is,
Mr. Bowring has sold the Bassett
Exchange Bank to Mr. Wm. Adams, of
O’Neill, who has named it the Farmer’s
& Merchants’ Bank. By this change
there is not a better or more solid bank
financially in northwestern Nebraska
than Bassett’s bank. The Enterprise
welcomes Mr, Adams to the business
circle of Bassett and bespeaks for him
the entire confidence of the people at
large in bis new banking venture. Mr.
A. E. Bowring will act as cashier for
the new firm'.—Bassett Enterprise.
Will Adams informs us that he will
r not remove to Bassett at present, but
will continue to hold his position here
as cashier of the Holt County Bank.
A mechanic stepped into our office
yesterday, says the Hayes county Re
publican, and asked to see a Hastings
paper to learn the address of a manu
facturing firm in that city. We hand
ed him the Nebraskan, and after look
ing it all over carefully he returned the
paper, saying the firm’s advertisement
was not in it, and he supposed they had
shut up the shop. So he sat down and
wrote off to Omaha for what he wanted.
Only a few days before this a gentleman
called and searched through the Stratton
Herald for the name of a business man
of that town. It wasn’t there, but he
afterwards discovered it in the Stratton
department of the Trenton Register.
These circumstances are occuning daily
in newspaper offices all over the land,
and if business men only understood as
well as they ought to what a card in the
paper means, every one of them would
have his name in print, if nothing more
than to give his address and announce
bis line of business.—Grand Island
I Times.

The Official Pap,
A special to the Llnboln Journal of
Tuesday says: “Who Is to control in
Nebraska appointments? We bear this
question daily. Senator Alien protests
that he will have nothing to do with the
ncou puis. uu uiu endorse oilman nnu
fell in the soup. He swears that he
will not take another whack at the pat
ronage question. It is given out at
the various departments that the de
feated democratic candidates for con
gross will have due consideration given
their recommendations, 'but Secretary
Morton,’ added one cabinet officer, ‘will
certainly be consulted before I make
any recommendations.’ It is believed
that the remarks will apply to all the
rest of the departments. While J.
Sterling protests that he will make no
recommendations or put his name to
any, the result will show that no politi
cal antagonists of the secretary of agri
culture will secure the office.
Morton’s ability as a headsman has
drawn him very dose to the democratic
heart and ho is still putting in his time
looking for republicans whom he can
replace with Simon pure democrats.
• APPLICATIONS POURING IN.
Applications for office from the
Sixth Nebraska congressional district
having been pouring in at a lively rate
during the past three weeks. This is
npt a surprise when it is considered that
the district, with Howard and Holt
counties on the east, runs to the state
line on the west and touches Dakota on
the poub, Including more than thirty of
the ninety odd counties of the state. ■
O.O. McHugh seems to be slated for
the O'Neill postofl|pe. There la a ques
tion when the. term expires. The pres
ent incumbent, it will be remembered,
resigned, had a successor appointed,
went to Arkansas, returned and was
reappointed. If his original commission
Is considered his four years ends in May.
If his reappointment is taken as the
starter, his term does not end till 1895.
Tbo postmaster general is now con
sidering this question." The dispatch
further says that. G. F. Keiger for re
ceiver and T. V. Golden for register of
thie O’Neill land office seem to be the
order.

This department Is not inclined to
credit tho report to the effect that Judas
Woods was discovered in compromising
circumstances with an alliance super
visor. .
The county board Is in session again
tbia week. This department doean't
exact!/ know (or what they are met, but
preiumes it ia for the purpose of sup
pressing Barrett Scott.
The atmosphere is again filled with
wild geese and cold lead. The lead
comes down, but the geese ?
Crawford should take treatment for
the bridge habit..
It Is now quite the proper thing hero to note i
That this is the time to ohange yqur political
coat.
We are informed that i.ast week dur
ing a recitation in a certain class in a
certain school in a certain town not far
from O'Neill, the word“parody,’came up
and the teacher asked a bright-eyed lit
tle fellow the meaning of the term.
She said; “now for instance, Charlie if
I should say. .is a parody on man,
what would it mean?” “Judas Woods,"
was fhe quick response.
The world owis much to strong drink.
This expression will no doubt cause
many to look aghast with horror, but
truly this department believes it. Look
ing back to the days and lives of illus
trious men who have gone down to the
grave and long since become food for
the beetle and the worm, we And it so.
And more particularly is ft true of the
poets; and what would life be without
the inspiring and soothing music of the
minstrel bard? We have in mind a
poet of our own country, and own time,
almost, Edgar Allen Poe. The spark
ling wine was to him as water from the
inspiring Helicon. It is not our inten
tion to create an impression or have it
understood as our idea that all
that is necessary to achieve great
things is to follow in the foot
steps of some of our Illustrious
dead, Rut we do believe the world is
indebted to this misfortune of Poe’s for
his best productions. They have in
them a touching strain of sadness that
cannot be attributed to a flight of the
imagination, but appear strongly as a
cold and terrible reality. A fine intel
lect and a master mind made sour and
morbid by intemperance, and to tbia and
no other agency can be traced the awe
inspiring tone of his verse. And thus
we say, to the flowing bowl is the world
indebted for bis best works, although
others there are who have been stranded
in the same waters, but is it not true
that there is a hand which shapes our
destinies and while we lament the fate
of those with bright and promising fu
tures, they are but beacon lights on the
rocks of Scylla, or ocean bells in the
whirlpool of Charybdis, warning other
mariners on the tempestuous sea of
animal existence that the danger of
navigation is too great for the pleasure
of successful voyage in those dangerous
waters? _
A. T. Potter left O’Neill Wednesday
morning for Janeau, Wis., to attend the
funeral of his father wh<k died at that
place at the advanced age of 01 years.
Will Mullen left Tuesday morning for
Fremont where he went to attend the
Fremont Normal thecomingyear. The
Frontier will keep him posted on the
happenings in and around O'Neill during
his absense.
Everything seems to be running
smoothly in city politics. In the First
ward Mike Sullivan and Ben DeYar
man are candidates for the city council;
in the Second Gatz has no opponent
while in the Third Wager and Sniggs
are pitted against each other. There is

the subject of tobaeco, and that we will
use every means to enforce the law

whereby children are eduoated from
revenuo derived from saloon license.

equal, legal and politieal protection la
due every citizen, and as this can only '
