(lufhrie is booming! This is not a ref erence to our scantling-shaped lumber dealer. We simply wish to call atten tion to the town of promise in Oklaho ma which seems to prosper in spite of its name. The Omaha Board of Trade, in their special train, passed up the road some time Tuesday night and came through lure on the return trip yesterday, stop ping long enough to review the city from the depot. IJ. P. Davis and' C. II. Andrews went down the road recently, attired in their best smifes and duds and although they did not tell us so we are led to believe that they visited Fremont. They re turned Monday. According to a recent circular sent out from the Chadron Land Ofiic'e, appli cants may have their linal proof notices published in any newspaper they may designate in writing upon their applica tion for final proof. Miss Lizzie Murphy was in Harrison yesterday for the first time since her ill ness. Several other members of the family are directed with the same dis ease. The Murphy family have been sorely afllicted but we trust that it will soon terminate. -Unknown parties made a raid upon the residence of Joseph Kipp, on Sow ltelly creek, while the inhabitants were away ami stole all of Mrs. Kipp's cloth ing and several pieces belonging to Mr. Kipp, Rome bed clothes and a few other paclc.ible articles, then, after sucking all the hen fruit to lie found on the place, dejwirted. This occurred last week. A nice little write up of this county taken from The Nebraska Reporter, Will lie found in another column. Mr. Sim mons who was here recently is tho au thor and shows the country as viewed by a disinterested person. Our subscrili ers should preserve their copies of the Jovif.v.u, and send them to friends who are desirous of learning more of this "goodly" land of ours. Mr. A. R. Lew arrived in Harrisou from (ireenllcM, Iowa, last Monday. In the at tcriioou be went ovfr to his home stead near Jim creek and found that some one had called during his several months absence 'and appropriated the roof, door and window of his" house, be sides a number of other articles from tho inside. He proceeded to replace tlifi de ficiencies and prepare tho clwoJling for tlia arrivaf of Mrs; Dflvv wh & ivfuicted Harrison Happy. Tie principal, and in fact tli3 only nat ural draw Ijack to Harrison in the past lias !en its limited water supply, and the faij, lias occasioned no small amount of worry and much anxiety has been ex pressed as to the final result of fcecuring a water supply of sufficient quantity to meet all demands for years to come. With a view to more fully developing the natural resources for an increased volume of water, the town board some time ago contracted to have a well drilled to the depth of 500 feet, and the work had been going on for several weeks until it was recently completed to to the depth of 290 feet . when it was foipid that a smaller drill bit would have to be secured liefore the work cqnlu be completed. The first water had been tacped at 100 feet deep. Last Monday it was decided to test' the volume of water by drawing with a horse and buck et, the bucket holding about 20 gallons. Twenty-one barrels of water were drawn all together. After the water in the well (which stands aliout 140 feet deep) had been lowered a little over three feet it was found impossible to lower it further and, although a rate of 2(5 barrels per hour was reached, for several minutes, the depth to water, as each succeeding empty bucket was lowered, was found to be exactly the same, and the proba bilities are that the supply is inexhaust ible. The steam pump, which has the capacity of lifting 48 barrels per hour from a depth of 500 feet, is to be moved to the new well and it is sate to say that the city of Harrisou will not again be troubled on account of a scarcity of wa ter. The quality is all that could be de si' ed. the dis- Lid you plant a tree Monday? Allowed accounts against Sioux county bought by Jones & Verity, "(Irani Outline is having titty acres 1 voke and will sow the same to flax, The work of moving the steam pump l.nd placing it in the new well is now go ing on under tho supervision of J. F. i'l'ost. . Thos. Reidy's pony got loose the oth flay and left for a visit With friends in Wyoming. Tom is now searching for the absent animal. The Pekin, China, Gazette, is said to be something over 2000 years old. It is doubtless an unusual occurrence for a subscrilier to remark that he was "one ol the first subscribers". We recently overheard Mr. Smith say that he heard S. Barker remark that Ed. Weir told him that Chas. Jameson said that he heard someone tell Slingerlaud that Jack Pfost told him to tell the town board to notice and see if the town cis tern didn't need a new pump. Commissioner Coleman sucked the ag ricultural department cow very dry in deed before he was choked oil by, a change of administration. The appro priation for the year was well nigh used up when Governor Rusk arrived on scene, and he has been compelled to miss" a large army of clerks and to sus pend operations entirely in the seed dijjr- tributing department, until congress makes another appropriation to continue the busines. Lincoln Journal. We call the attention of the Gordon Herald to the fact that there was an election held in Nebraska last fall and that at said election George H Meikle john was elected Lieutenant Governor, Thos, H. Benton, State Auditor, John b. Hill, Slate Treasurer and John Steen, Land Commissioner. Tho above sugges tion is made simply as a matter of good faith, as a stranger in the state would not know the same from reading1 the list of State Olllcers as published ih the Herald. Three horses belonging to VV. T. Moore strayed away about two weeks ago and after several days search two ot them were found about 25 miles south-east of Alliance. The third animal was taken from a suspicious looking individual who had stopped for the night at the upper 33 ranch last Sunday. The ani mal had been branded and it was un doubtedly a clear case of theft. Sheriff Pfost and Thos. Reidy made search for the thief the next day but be bad silent ly glided away. Prince Bisiiiark announces in the "White Book" issued wiico the Kaiiioan dillic'ilty was investigated that the troublu there between German interests and those of tho United Stated was en tirely the fault of the German consul, lie regrets that. Urn consul exceeded his authority and slates the same theory in relation ij Samoa that is held in this country, namely, that the United States, England und Germany, by treaty stipu lations, have no right to interfere with local nimirs in Samoa. It may now be safely predicted that there will be fid further trouble H1t.ll Germany about For (iod, and Home, aud 'ative Land. Contributions by Hie Woman's tliris tiau Temperance I'liion. The Woman's Christian Temjienince Un ion met pursuant to adjournment, in the school house, at the usual hour on Wed nesday of this week. Some deferred business was attended to and the accom panying resolution of condolence was adopted, and ordered published iu our local papers. Whereas; It lias seemed good to Jesus the tender Shepherd, to call to His heav enly flock a lamb of but few months of earthly life, little Lena, only child of our beloved Second Vice President Mrs. ddie O, Cowley therefore be it Resolved; T'.iaL this Union offers the sincere sympathy of its members to our dear sister and trusts that the sorrowing parents may realize the consolation that only the great Comforter can give. . A saloon can no more be run without boys than a flouring mill without wheat, or a saw mill without logs. The quest ion is, whose boys. Your boys or mine? Our boys or our neighbors? "Sot by Might." EVA B. l'lUXUCIfY. "What can I do':" she said, "I am too weak to battle with the strong. Brute force will conquer whether right or wrong; The world is lost in sin, and here I stand, Armed only witha woman's slender hand, What can I do?" she said. Behind dark walls of stone, Tossing upou his narrow prison-bed, One lay upon whoso restless, fevered head, That self-same woman's hand was gent ly pressed, The while she told of heaven, and home, and rest, And mercy at God's throne. In foul, polluted ways, 'Mid want and wretchedness, I saw her stand And scatter blessings with her voice and hand, Until the pallid children of the street Stooped down to kiss the dust beneath her feet, Hushing their noisy plays. 'Mid sorrow, shame and sin, She walks as calmly as thro' guarded halls: Nor fears to go wherever duty calls; And many a helpless wreck afar from land, Has grasped the anchor of her slender hand, And been drawn sately in. Oh strength from weakness born! What though the jarring light be fierce aud long? There swells above the mighty roar a song; And woman's band, endowed with holy might, Shall lead this great, sad world, up thro' the night lulo the promised mom. From Union Signal. Estray Soliee.
