From Huturday's Dully.
Services commemorating the
crucifixion of Christ were held
yesterday (Hood Friday) in I In;
episcopal church in I his oily at '.I
a. in., 10 a. in., 1 1 :iT) a. in. and
ncnilenlial services at 2:15 and
penitential litany at 7:30 p. in.
'flic Catholic church was open
during the day for those of (tin
parish who desired lo perform I lie
stations of I In1 cross. Tins is one
of Hit' most si rid days in I lie
calendar of these churches and is
observed by almost every member
if tin; Catholic, or F.piscopal
I'linrch by aHcmling one'oflhe
services.
The choir oT lh! Methodist
church in I hit evening, under the
direction of their leader, Mrs. H.
II. Wescoll,, presented the story of
the crucilixion in souk, if being
Dubois' "The Seven Fast Words
of Christ," and Hit! choir handled
Hit! heanlifnl sacred story in a
splendid manner. Tin music o
Ibis is one of the most heanlifnl
thai has heen heard in this cily,
a:itl when the trained voices of the
choir and soloists were lifted up
to deliver the message from Cal
vnrv il was cerlainly an inspiring
thought for lliose attending. The
solo parts of the production were
taken by l.ucian Prior of Omaha,
whoso lint; lenor voice curried that
pail, of tht story in a wonderful
manner, ns did Don C. York,
v hose bass solos are so familiar
that it is unnecessary to speak of
bis ability in this line. Miss
Ferris York and Mrs. Mae
Morgan carried Hit! sopruno and
alto solos in a wonderfully pleas
ing manner. Prof. Frank J.
Kolbaha assisted the choir with
violin accompaniment, in bis
usual masterly manner, and play
ed tht! offering, that beautiful
number, "There's a Creen Hill
Far Away," as no not! else can
possibly attempt to, and the solo
was one of the musical treats of
the evening. Tht! story of the
song was read by Itcv. W. I.. Aus
tin, ami each of Hit! seven wonts
was followed by the musical
rendition by the. choir. There
were some forty voices in the
choir, and I he wonderful manner
in which they rendered this dif
ficult, selection by DuHois speaks
well for tlie training they have re
ceived at tlie hands of Mrs. Wes
coll. The Easier evening music
will hi! "Life ami Death," by Harry
Howe Shelly, anil is considered
one of (lie masterpieces of sacred

The Inltdlecluul Ciant on lb
Weeping Water Republican limls
fault with us for supporting' tlie
jail proposition. lie sneers at
our logic and imputes to us no
higher motive than 'selfishness"
hastening- to add, directly and
hy implication, that the removal-1
isls tio not know the meaning of
the word. Now, we are running a
newspaper in Nehawka. This
paper is supported by the busi
ness men of .Nehawka, and circu
lates in ami around tht! (own.
This being the case, we should be
pardoned for reflecting the senti
ment of the community in which
we live. We have no quarrel with
people of oilier communities for
their position on this real live
question, ami gladly accord them
the inalienable right to gather
around Hie particular whist ling
post that marks their town and
give their college yell. We look
the stand wt! did on the jail ques
tion because v thought it would
be for Hit! best interests of our
part of the county to vole for a
jail which no one denies is need
edand I bus save the expense of
several special elections later, on
the county seat removal question.
II has been gratifying to us to
have the solid men of this com
munity come in and tell us we
were taking the right stand. II,
has been more gratifying to have
lliem tell us that although they
have voted against all former jail
propositions they intend to sup
port this one, in Hie hope of pul
ling a quietus to this county seat
removal agitation. It has been
most gratifying to us to have a
number of our subscribers, who
live between here and Weeping
Water, tell us that although they
had signed the petition for a
special cieciion to re-iocaie I lie
county seal, they intended to vole
I'Olt the jail lax ami would lend
no more support to the oilier mai
ler. Ileally. we were not trying
to convert any of our large list
of Weeping Water readers to our
way of thinking. As a matter of
fad we have been Irving to con
vert no one. We have been simply
staling our views on the question
ami in a manner rellecliug Hie
sentiment of the community in
which we live. We have staled
nothing but fads. Cass county

has the best court house of ANY

ball park warming up in a relay
race of one-eighth of a mile. The

as this is the first season that the
school has had a track team, the
woi'k of gelling into form is
rather dillicult, but the boys made
a very good .snowing. 1 no lime
made by the dill'erent members
was as follows: Harry Winscol,
l seconds; Paul llantlley,
Arthui' White, 11; Philip Camp
bell, 17. The second, team that,
ran got away on the following
lime: Major Hall, 15 seconds;
Fred Dawson, 10; Fan il Mild, 1-' ;

Mr. Larson as principal, as be
was quite prominent m auiietic

deep interest in the boys and their
ports. The track team hopes to
get in trim in lime to get into
some of the state meets, and if
tney get an opportunity will give
a good account of themselves-.

In District Court.
From Friday's Daily.
A petition was tiled in district
court today in the matter of the
guardianship of J. Doane Harri
son a minor, by Fdith Clizbe, bis
guardian, asking permission to
sell real estate in which said
minor is interested. . The prop
erty is valued at less than ?500,
and according to law the sale can
be made privately, and as the
boy's interest is so small; it is
done in order lo clear the matter
up in proper form.

of painters are engaged in dec
orating the interior of the New
York bakery on upper Main

shape for the changes which are
contemplated by Mr. Wagner, who
will conduct the retail department

painted a light shade of green and
