Henry Timm-was .among those who
attended the corn show at Omaha this
week. Mr. Timm has been a resident i
of Casa county a number of years and !
this was his first visit to the city; he I
was no doubt greatly impressed with j
Omaha as it has gotten to be a very j
lire place indeed; especially has it ;
grown in the matter of substantial and ;
beautiful buildings.
The concert given Tuesday evening j
by the colored troupe under the aus- i
pices of the Woodman lodge proved a !
delightful source of entertainment to a
large and appreciative crowd. This j
entire course ha3 proven itself a good 1
thing so that we believe better attrac-'
tions can be added from year to year
until Murdock wants the best there is '
on the platform. The managers of the !
lodge deserve great credit for launch- j
ing out in this field and they are no j
doubt much gratified at the results at- j
tained. I

was his usual habit at the supper hour.
The deceased has been subject to" at- i
tacks of heart trouble for about throe j
( or four years, but had not complained
