a copy of the history as soon as it

tinds a suitable residence in Seattle.

The State Board of Education pur
chased the Wayne Normal last week,
pacing $70,000 therefor. On Janu
ary J tiie members of the board will
visit the several towns in the state
who are bidding for the new normal !
which is to be located in western Ne
braska and after they visit the several
towns they will announce their de
cision. The Lincoln Journal, last
week, announced that it it was gener
ally understood that Alliance would
secure the new school. Whether the
statement was made from authentic
information or not we are unable to
say.
At the regular meeting of Holt
Camp No. 1710 last Tuesday evening
the following officers were elected for
the ensuing year: Geo. A. Miles,
Venerable Consul; P. J. McManus,
wortny Advisor; u. Zimmerman,
Banker; F. J. Biglin, Clerk; John J.
Lawless, Escort; O. W. Baker, Watch
man; Dan D. Harrington, Manager
for three years. A couple of new ap
plications were presented and the
members decided that they would
make an aggressive campaign for
membership the ensuing year. The
camp now has a membership of 130
and the members believe that with a
little work on their part the member
ship could be increased to 200.
A. C. Tolliver and Bob Herre of
Ainsworth were in the city last Tues
day endeavoring to secure the support
of the citizens of this place for Ains
worth in the normal school light.
From what these gentlemen said it
was understood there that O’Neill
was out of the race and they were of
the opinion that if that was the case
O’Neill should favor Ainsworth. The
gentlemen were informed that O’Neill
was in the “scrap” to a finish and
they returned home on the afternoon
train without having assisted their
cause any. W'e understand they also
visited Atkinson soliciting support
and that after the citizens of the
little city on the west had been in
formed over the phone that O’Neill
was still in the race they also had to
leave there without having received
any assistance from the citizens of
Atkinson.

Wedding a Surprise.
Married, at Harrison, Nebr., on
Sunday, November 14, 1909, William
B. Graves of O’Neill, toMissArelie
E. Holden of Chambers, Nebr., Rev.
T. J. Peacock, pastor of the M.
E. church officiating. The above
mnouncement received by O’Neill
'riends of the young couple in the city
Tuesday evening was the first inti
nation their many O’Neill friends
lad of the wedding. To say that it
was a surprise is putting it mildly as
iheir most intimate friends hardly
mew they were acquainted.
Mr. Graves left O’Neill on Novem
oer 12, presumably for Omaha, but
look the train for Crawford, where
Miss Holden has been employed as a
itenographer the past four months
and on Sunday accompanied by Miss
Holden went to Harrison, where the
jeremony was performed. After the
wedding they took a honeymoon trip
if ten days through the Black Hills,
ifter which Mrs. Graves resumed her
luties in the law office at Crawford,
Having agreed to remain until her
imployers secured a successor, while
Mr. Graves returned to his business
n this city and none suspected he
iad become a benedict during his
ibsence.
The groom is one of O’Neill’s most
popular young business men, having
jonducted a jewelry store in the old
Bole building the past two years, and
nas by his ability, integrity and busi
ness acumen built himself up a splen
4id business.
Tiie bride is a daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. J. W. Holden of Chambers and
for some two years was a stenogra
pher in the office of County Clerk
Simar. She is a charming young lady
witti a sweet and amiable disposition
and has a host of friends in O’Neill
and the southern part of the county.
The bride returned from Omaha
Tuesday evening, where she had been
visiting friends the past few days,
and have gone to housekeeping in the
rooms over the jewelry store.
The Frontier joins the many friends
of tills happy young couple in wishing
them long life and prosperity.

A Change
ON JANUARY i, 1910, we have decided to
make a change in our present method of doing
business. During the past few years the price
of meat has been very high and we believe the
people of O’Neill will appreciate a change that will give
them splendid meat at reduced prices.
In order to accomplish this we have decided that on
and after January 1 we will not make delivery or give
credit. All meats will be sold for cash only and we will
not make deliveries, therefore can sell much closer.
During the time we have been in business in O’Neill
we have done a splendid business, but in order to keep
up the expense of a delivery and to carry big accounts
we have to sell at a good sized profit. This has not
been satisfactory to us nor to our customers, and we
have therefore decided upon this change.
On and after New Years every package that leaves
this shop will be paid for, and we can convince the
citizens of O’Neill that it will be money in their pocket
to call and get their meat and pay cash for it.
