5tr. LAID TO EEST. A Groat Throngs Fay Tribute to tho Memory of Wra. A. McKoighan. All that was mortal of William A. McKetghan was laid to rest in the cemetery at Red Cloud Thurs day. 1'ublic buildings, private dwellings and business houses were drapcd'in his honor. Flags were draped and at half mast and all business houses closed. The Christian church, the most spacious n the city would not ac commodate one-third the people in attendance, many going long distances by private conveyances to pay their last respects to the dead ex-congrcsfman. The procession was Jed by the Sons of Ve terans band, followed by a hrirg squad detailed by the Grand Army of the Republic, next a large number of veteran comrades and members of the Modern Woodmen. In car riages were, besides the family, his brother, Alexander McKcighan and wife of Yates City, 111., Isaac Urown and wife of Springvillc, Kas., Mrs. Klizabcth Urown of I'ontiac, II!., brother and sister-in-law of the departed, and Mrs. McKeighan's mother of l'airbury, Neb. There were also Mrs. W. V, Allen, W. J. Uryan and Adj-Gen. Harry. Gov. llolcomb was un able to be present but vas repre sented by Stenographe r Nelson of his office. The church was taste fully and elaborately draped, and the floral decorations were in pro fusion and were the offerings of many personal friends. The services were conducted by Kev. Mr. Maxfield of th Metho dist church and Rev. Mr. Yciscr of the Uaptist church of lied Cloud. The principal address was delivered by Hon. V. J. Uryan. In subdued tones he bespoke his personal emotion as in beautiful sentences lie portrayed the kindly , nature of his departed friend, nnd touched the well of sympathy in the hearts of his hearers. At the grvc with the simple ritual of tl:e soldiers' society the body was laid in its last long resting place. We hope to receive 10,000 Christmas gifts this year, mainly from delinquent subscribers.

The two partners, Nissley !& Wells have been arrested for dis posing of mortgagtd property. It appears that they gave a mortgage on their stock to the American Exchange bank some time ago and then persuaded the bank officers not to put it on record, so astO; keep their credit good with other parties, promising to make me bank good at all hazards. Then they gave other mortgages and had them filed before the bank knev anything about it. Then the bank officers got hot under the collar and had them arrested. The question is, are not the bank's officers also culpable? Tne keeping of that mortgage from the public records enabled the firm, with the bank's knowledge and consent, to deceive other creditors. Honesty is the best policy, even under the gold standard. Canting Hypocrite. Lincoln, Nkh., Dec. 1 9, '95. EunoK Lincoln iNDti'KNW.Nr: Some republican idiots in Lincoln would shut up a poor littb school and turn the pupils out on the street that they might buy flag poles and flags to float over the others. They call that patriotism! They are canting hypocrites. The men who act that way never rallied 'round the Hag when shot and shell were screaming the air. An Old Soi.mi.k. Here's Your Chance.
