A sort of be-9 period, as it were. If you fail to attend the entertain ment at tha Church on Saterday evening May 18th, you will miss a treat. Messrs Murphy & Whitney have com menced work on the new bridge across Sow-belly creek at J. G. Morris's place. Mr. Kelley has severed his connection with the store of W. R. Smith and is spending a few days with his brother at Whitney. Will Davis, of the Herald force, is re covering slowly from his recent severe illness but is still unable to resume his work at the case. Wm. Schonebaum, the harness maker, has about completed a One log house on his claim on Jim creek and will reside there in the near future. The 30th day of this month is Decora tion Day and other towns are making preparation for its proper observance. Will Harrison celebrate the day. Barber G-alpin and blacksmith Carrier may be seen every evening with three soda crackers and a small can of water, traveling in a southeastern direction. The Gordon Republican evidently has a few friends thereabout as it appeared last week with over a column of land notices. Shake boys, we expect to print a few ourselves. Jacob Dometshauser, who recently located on section 2, township 33, range 56, arrived on Monday last with a car of goods and will hereafter permanently reside in our midst. Dora Trimbur has been appointed mar shal, street commissioner and city engi neer and was instructed by the town board to lay pipe from the new well to the cistern at the old well. Messrs Jake, Cornelius and Henry Vangorkom, of Sioux county, Iowa, ac quaintences of A. W. Emery, arrived here yesterday with a view to locating. And still there is room for more. Wanted, a middle aged lady to do general house work for family on ranch. Good wages and steady employment to the right person. Enquire at this olllce or apply to Jas. H. Cook, Harrison, Neb, The Misses Slattery left yesterday for Denver where they expect to make their home for the summer.

Last Wednesday's train brought to Harrison, direct from Germany, Dom enick, Nickolas, Jean Piero, Katherina and Margaret! ia Haas and their mother. They were met at this place by their brother and started for the famous Hat Creek Valley the same day, where they expect to looat. Corn planting is being commenced jn more tlian one locality. Morrison the Jeweller can be found at C. H. Andrews & Co's every day. Mrs, Moore is having a house built on her claim five miles southeast of town. Mr. W. Gould, of the ILunilton Loan and Trust Company, of Keajny, Neb., is at work in Sioux county examining loan applications and property. A special train carrying the State Board of Transportation arrived here at Ave o'clock this morning. It will be re membered that the Hon. L. W. Gilchrist is one of the members.

No pains will be spared to make this one of the best entertainment ever given Harrison and the object is so meritor- ioui that a good attendance should be given them. Mr. Joseph Parsons suffered a severe loss on last Friday by the burning of his house and barn. Mr. Parsons was away from home at the time and it was only by 4 strenuous effort and the assistance of Mr. White that a part of the house hold goods were saved. Mr. Parsons al so lost a valuable horse tliat was burned with the barn. The loss is sorely felt by Mr. Parsons who is a bard working, in dustrious citizen and a good neighbor. We are in receipt of the Superintend ent's announcement of the coming teach ersjnstitute to to held in the courthouse at tarrison, commencing June 18, and ending June, 28. This is a move in the right direction and one that will be a benedt to the teachers of Sioux county if they properly apply themselves to the work w hich we doubt not they will. The announcement also states that Prof. A. J. Babcock will deliver a lect ure to the teachers on the evening of the 27th. This is wrong. The excess of knowledge lies with the teachers and they should deliver the lecture and al low Babcock to be the audience. He could learn many things from the teach ers of Sioux county that would be en tirely new and strange to him. j Dry Antelope Items. Mr. Fred Stemmer got his intended better half's picture and he is in a great hurry to build his house. He will put up a house 14 by 22, frame, this fall large enough for two. Fred is a rustler.

Shepherd, of Squaw Creek, is a rustler, so his friends say, but there isn't rustle enough about him to get him a housekeeper. J. W. Langdon and J. A. Pratt went to Clark's saw mill, in Plum Creek canyon, Wyoming, last Monday. They say: "Oh my such roads!" Sod Breaker. Secretary Noble has rendered a decis ion regarding enteries under the timber culture act and places a different con struction upon the law to the one hith erto held. He says: "'No arbitrary rule can be established for the govern ment of every case. It should be the desire of the department to ascertain what the intent and purpose of congress was in the passage of the act. Clearly it was to encourage the artificial growth of timber in a prairie country. It is within the experience of all minds that in all mankind living regions, that in drains and ravines a few scattering trees are to be found, and it would not seem that congress intended to exclude every tract of that kind from the timber cult ure act. It stands to reason that it was not the purpose to deprive the occupants of the vast prairies of the west of the benefits of the act if there happened to be a single tree upon the section. I take it that words prairie land, or land devoid of timder, within the spirit of the act, means lands practically so."

The Womans Christian Temperance Union met at the usual hour on Wednes day, May 8th, at the school house, but, "owing to circumstances over which they had no control," they concluded to hold their session OUTSIDE of the building instead of inside; and, as the aforesaid circumstances seemed rather adverse, devotional exercises were disj)ensed with. Not much business was transacted, and a motion of adjournment was speed ily in order. They adopt as their motto for this occasion "Nils Desperandum." ' i The Two Xeignbors. MARTHA J. HADLEY, IN BOSTON TRAVELER. I There lived two neighbors in our little town, Both, in their wiy, of great and wide re nown; One fierce and warlike; peaceable the other, Trying to make of his dread foe a broth er. One king was called, and one the poor man's friend, Which led them often hotly to contend; And long the war was waged, is raging still, Which has the greater power, the strong er will. At last the people met, and sought in tent to see If these two foes could dwell in unity. But, after earnest prayer and long de bate, Which served still more to agravate the hate, Have now decided, every one and all, No more to tolerate King Alcohol, But to accept, and greetings true extend, To pure Cold Water, everybody's friend. A London periodical states that chol era carried away ten thousand of the drinking class of society without being fatal to a single member of the temper ance societies. In New Orleans in 1850, the yellow fe ver scourge swept away 1,000 intemper ate men before it touched a single ' sober person. TJuring a cholera year lh Rotterdam; 900 persons died of the disease, of whom but three were total abstainers. Dr. Macintosh, of Edinburgh, says: "The first victims of cholera are partic ularly those addicted to the use of ar dent spirits." It is stated that of 1,000 deaths in that city only two were mem bers of temperance societies. k Dr. Mussey says that during cholera in Albany, of 5,000 members of temperance societies, only two died. Though the mills of God grind slowly, Yet they grind exceeding small; Though with patience He stands waiting, With exactness grinds He all. . Eli Perkins says, and sticks to it, that the liquor business does not thrive and prosper in Iowa, and that prohibition is a great blessing to the state. Eli met a Missouri farmer coming into the state who left one boy, killed a few weeks be fore in a drunken brawl, and was taking the. others up into Iowa to save them. 7 For Sale Pure Millet seed at W.
