AT THE M. K. CHUKCH.
There was hardly standing room
at the M. K. church Christmas eve.
The program rendered was partici
pated in largely by little folks, all
of whom reflected great credit upon
themselves and the management
The speaking was intersperced with
music well rendered. Santa Claus

Sunday school pupiU to their en
tire satisfaction.
PKKHHYTKKIAN FEHTIVITES.
The attendance at the Presbyter
inn church waH good. Prior to the
distribution of the uifts to the
pupils of the Sunday school,
short, interesting program was
rendered. The tree was of ever
green, not veryjlurge and with the
lights shining profusely it pre
scnted a lovely appearance. The
pupils of the Sunday school were
made to rejoice by the generous
and appropriate manner in whic
Santa Claus remembered them.
AT THK CllklSTIA.N CHUKCH.
The exercises at the Christian
church on Christinas eve were
decided success. The house was
crowded to its utmost capacity.
The beautiful cantata, entitled
"How We Waited for Santa Claus,"
w is renderd in such a manner as to
call forth the best praises from the
attentive listeners. Mr. Bird
Critchhcld conducted the exer
cises, and expresses himself as
being well pleased with the interest
the people have taken in order to
please the young people who attend
the Sundoy school at the Chrisgan
church. Many fine presents were
distributed, among which was a
fine gold watch from the family to
Mr. K. K. Todd. A recitation was
given by Miss Clara Wilson, entitled
"The Little Pilgrim," which caused
tears to flow in the eyes of nearly
every person present Santa Claus
appeared in full costume, and
actually came in at the chimnej,
which had been prepared, and
upon the mantle of which were ar
ranged the many presents.

at St. Luke's Episcopal church.
The exercises, consisting princi
pally of singing, were participated
in mainly by the children. The
decorations were appropriate and
tasty. The window sills were cov
ered with cotton, bordered with ever
greens. A beautiful arch spanned
the pulpit, bearing in gilt letters
the inscription, "Glory to Cod in
tin Highest and ou Earth Peace,
Cood Will to Men." Beautiful
green vines, with red buds at
tached, covered the organ and
nltar, on the whole reflecting rare
credit upon the decorators.

The Nebraska City Distillery
troyed by Fire.
The main building of the big
distillery at Nebraska City was
wrapped in flames Thursday after
noon and almost totally destroyed.
The origin of the lire is attributed
to spontaneous combustion of dust
and trash that had accumulated iif
the department in which the grain
is ground. The Raines sprtad rap
Idly and In five minutes after the
alarm was sounded the building
was enveloped in flames.
The Press estimates the loss at
$."A0OO, fully insured. The work of
rebuilding will be begun nt once
and in tin; course of two weeks
work will be resumed as umjhI
The Press speaks in high terms of
the valor and heroism exhibited by
the firemen in endeavoring to sub
jugate the flames, asserting that
Nebraska City has the finest volun
teer fire company in the west.

UNDER THE WHEELS.
"T. K." Qusrtetto.
A very fair audience greeted the
'T. K.s" at the Baptist church last
night, but not as large as the en
tertainment deserved. But the
audience made up for quality what
lacked In numbers, and those pres
ent felt repaid for their attendance
by the entertainment furnished by
this excellent musical combination.
The program was curried out in a
manner which gave satisfaction to
those present The Quartette num
bers on the program were executed
in a manner which showed the en
tire troupe's thorough knowledge
of music, and each part was thor
oughly understood, while the effect
was one of harmony. Should the
T K.'s" ngain nppear before a
Crcnton nudience they will be
greeted with a crowded house.

Henry Steele Discovered Lying Upon I
the M. P. Track South of the Sta
tion at Nebraska, City Thurs
day, With boVV'eet
Cut Entirely'
Off.
It appears that the unfortunate
young man had purchased a ticket
at Auburn for Nebraska City. The
conductor of the train, lu speaking
of the affair, said that after Mr.
Steele got on the train nt Auburn
he noticed that he had been
drinking. He says, further, that he
wits ii it Hsleep when he got to
XcbrnMa City, but that he got off
the train with a turkey iti his urms,
and ufter standing ou the platform
lor a .l:ort time, he went around
and got on the blind end ot the
bairL'aire car. This was the last
seen of him until he was picked up
in the condition n which he was
found. Ho was t iken to the city
hospital, and Doctors Koss and
Daily waited upon him and did all
in their power to relieve his suffer
ings, which were terrible in the ex
treme. The injury will surely prove
fatal, as both legs are badly mangled.

ERE is what the manufacturer says in regard to Solid Silver Met
al goods and Solid Nickel Silverware: "There has been a grow
ing demand for years for a grade of Spoons and Forks to take
the place of Solid silver and plate ware. We have experimented
for some time to nttnin'thi end, and nre now able to offer the public our
Rogers' Metal and Rogers' Solid Nickel Silver. We guarantee this metal
superior to any Nickel Silver manufactured and have the greatest confi
dence in assuring our customers that this ware is inferior to service on
ly to solid silver. It is a beautiful white color, is highly polished and
can hardly be distinguished from pure silver. We recomend this ware
especially for hotels, restaurants and boarding houses, as it will stand
nion hard usage than any other metal; is very tough and hard; will hold
its color and will outwear any plateware ever manufactured." All our
customers know Rogers' ware by reputation. This firm have manufac
tured plated ware since lWi.r, and their name is never put on goods that
are not f a high grade, so our customer can rest assured that they are
fe4ting .ome very desirable goods when they jet goods under iheir
ml, come in early ana secure a snare oi tnese gooas ueiorc it is to
