Mr. Christensen returned to Chadron yesterday. Guthrie, Oklahoma has a daily paper, the Daily Capitol. Keys Lost: Three ordinary door keys on a steel ring. Please leave here. Geo. WuHfer was in Chadron last week on business before the land office. Darnel & Nelson have moved their saw mill from Prairie Dog Canyon to West Monroe. 8. IL Jones returned Monday from a several weeks visit with his parents near Washing, D. C. Wm. Christensen came up from Chad ron Monday and is living for a few days at home on his claim. Mr. Ferguson has moved from his for mer residence on Running Water to Cot tonwood where he has taken a claim. Dick Simler is a daddy. You can tell it from his walk, talk and conversation. The son was born on Sunday, May 19th. A special train bearing the general manager of the road, went up toward Casper Sunday evening and returned the next forenoon. Sheriff Pfost was at Crawford last Satr urday. He says that Crawford is "sure booming" and thinks it will make a city of no mean proportions. Parties passed through here Sunday returning from an extensive exploring trip among the oil fields of Wyoming. They are residents of Hastings. .The ice cream social held at the church on Saturday evening was well atr tended and all of the cream and cake disposed of. The net receipts were about 10. The Herald has moved into new and more commodious quarters on the ground floor, occupying the rear part of the room into which the postoflice was recently moved. Our new court house is practically completed and the county oflicers will move to their new quarters this week to be ready for the term of the District Court which meets next Monday, Mr. A. R. Kennedy returned to Green field, Iowa, last Monday, lie will close his business there as soon as possible and return to Harrison, when, if the outlook is favorable lie will embark in business, Crawford is to have another newspa per. She certainly did not have her share, judging from the towns which surround her. Crawford is a good news paper town and we trust and believe that the new paper, rightly managed, will prosper there. ""Grandma Cline, who lives near her daughter, Mrs, B. F. Thomas, last week received several birthday presents from a daughter at Bridgeport, Connecticut, consisting of a flue satteen dress pattern and trimmed bonnet to match, handker chiefs, lace collar and etc. She was SI years old the 1st day of May, A two year old child of Michael Schonebaums was brought to Harrison Monday for the purpose of having a grain of corn removed from its nose which had lodged there in some manner unknown to the parents. Dr. Shafer skilfully extracted the refractory grain and the child is now itself again. It is given out oflicially that the Cheyenne & Northern will not build any road the present year. The present does not seem to lie a very good year for rail way construction here in the northwest, as indications are now that not a pound of iron will bo laid the present year on the new H, & M. extension, Oelriths Advocate. Mr. J. A. Sheffer, of Munvillo, Wy., who was recently tried, for murdering his partner something over a year , ago, and acquitted at the recent term of the District Court at Douglas, was given a reception by his friends at Munvillo up on his return. Anvils were fired and a huge bon-llre kindled, alter which sup per was served and a dance given. He must have been the wrong num. With this postcrqrt; attached, "Tlie Journal ought to copy," tbe followiug might Lave been found among the Her ald's "Clare" items last week: "Charley Coffee, seeing the sinfulness of raising cattle in large numbers to fted the starving poor of the east, has re nounced the errors of ranchism and will devote the remainder of his life to re pentance nd farming. He never does anything by halves, having already seed ed over two hundred acres in corn and small grain, and, unless the late legis lature served some secret injunction on the Lord of whic h we are unaware, the fertile valleys of Sioux can grow crops even for men that own some stock." The author's desire to have it printed in the Journal comes plainly from two sources. He is anxious chat a majority of the people of Sioux county may read this dove-tailed production of his mas sive intellect, and also that it may have the association of truthfulness two "wants" that can only be accomplished through the Journal. We will wager that this same correspondent, prior to lost fall's election, was taking his sol emn oath (or was willing to do so) that Messrs Coffee and all the rest of the cat tle men would leave the county under herd law rule. This doesn't seem to tend in that direction. The number of actu al prophets are very few compared to ttie number of "would be's." ' W. E. Jones of Indian creek settle ment had the misfortune to lose a horse Tuesday night. Mr. Jones drove to Har rison tliat day to be a witness for a neighbor who was proving up, His tieam was a fine one, being valued at prolially three hundred dollars. He put the horses in the livery barn where one of them took sick, probably of colic, and died before morning. E. C. Myers was in Harrison and circulated a subscrip tion among our business men securing upwards of seventy dollars to be used to help purchase another horse. This was commendible both in Mr. Myers and the Other subscribers. Mr. Jones called at this office and asked us to express his sin cere thanks. We understand that sev eral members of his family are ill. George Turner, the popular ranchman and postmaster at Gramercy, was in Harrison yesterday and his friends hardly knew him. He used to pass himself off in a crowd as a fairly good looking man, but since he shaved off his long, black mustache he is uglier than any man ought ever to be. Has he gone into Riouming over Die late Democratic de feat, or does he hope to pass himself off for some other fellow and so slip through the Republican sifter? If so his face is sure to attract attention and ar ouse suspicion and so block that game. He admits himself that Mrs. Turner told him to go away from home until his mustache grows again. Come and see us, George when your mustache grows. Mr. Corbin's stock, goods and family arrived last week. He has several head of fine young horses and brood mares. Mr. C. Lindsay, a son-in-law, who had charge of the stock during its transit, looked the country over and was so well pleased that he has taken a claim south east of town. He returned to his home in Illinois the first of this week and will move to Sioux county soon bringing with him, besides his stock and goods, an hydraulic well drill which will be much needed by that time and, in fact, is at present. Mr. Chas. W. Jones, of Lakeside, ar rived at Harrison last week and after viewing the country for a brief spell bought the relinquishment of a claim ly ing southeast of town from Mr. Chap man. We understand that others, friends and relatives, are expected to come and take claims near. Mr. Jones had, just prior to coming to Sioux county, spent several months in viewing unoccupied government land in various places but found nothing that suited him so well as Sioux county. He is building now, France and Germany raise more beet sugar than they can consume. The United States spends nearly $100,000,000 a year for sugar. It is therefore inter esting to read that an American and English company, with a capital stock of $1,000,000 is about to establish a beet sugar refinery at Welllleet, Lincoln county, Nebraska, a region where the sugar beet thrives exceedingly well, and developes 5 per cent, more sugar than in Europe. Cincinuatti Commercial-Gazette, ' Hoggy Urovc The general health of the people is improving. No new cases of dipthera. School commences at No. 9 on the 27th, the scare being over. Mr. Hill has commenced to break on his claim. A drove of cattle passed Boggy for Bob. Harris' ranch, recently. Richard Corcoran writes that he is coming back to improve his claim and stay with us. Welcome, Richard 1 Old Slol-um. Buffalo Bill, with his far famed Wild West show,' has arrived in Paris and the inhabitants are delighted with the many wumlcrl'ul ft'ftUia's the uliow conUuus.

Softly the eunsbiae gleams on the river, The river that flows on its way to the sea, But hours once wasted are vanished forever. And ne'er shall their sweetness return un to me. Hours ml pent pass for aye from our keep ing, Silently vanish, with noiseless farewell. With summers dead in the past they are sleeping, And only the judgment their stpry can tell. We ask our readers to contrast the following statements taken from a late Union Si gnal, and to ask themselves if our glorious America is really the "land of the free and the home of the brave?" "The wine for the Centennial dinner in New York is said to liave cost $16,000, and that for the ball much more. At the ball excesses of all kinds were in dulged in, while it is said that groups of drunken lads with vacant eyes, unsteady feet and reckless gaiety of speech, were scattered about the place holding in their trembling hands brimming wine glasses," "At the annual Easter festival of the Blue Coat boys at Mansion Housf , Lon don, it has always been the custom to give the boys a present of money, fresh from the mint, witli cake and wine. This year the Lord Mayor, who is a thorough temperance man, replaced the wine with lemonade and made the boys an extra gift of money." We are glad to learn that South Dako ta is likely to experience a lively and vigorous prohibition campaign. Many well known and eloquent speakers are to make addresses throughout the territory prior to the constitutional ratification. The object of the party is to secure the retention of the prohibition clause in the Sioux Falls constitution, if that should be adopted, or the insertion of a similar clause in any new constitution that may be framed. Mrs. Chas. Jameson is visiting at Mr. McGinly's ranch. Mike Bruck has completed a house on bis claim one mile northeast of town. The two inch pipe is being laid from the well to the cistern and the water will probably be flowing to-day. W. R. Smith is having an awning put up in front of his store. This, is the kind of improvments needed on several of the Harrison business houses. Mr. C. S. Morrison has rented the building formerly used for a meat mar ket and has again fitted it up in shape and is running a first class shop. Mrs. Stall, who lives on Hat creek, has secured a carpet loom and will take carpet weaving at reasonable rates. The first job offered will be done at half price. Rev. Wallace organized a Sunday School last Sunday afternoon, about five Miles west of Mr. Garton's place. The school will be held every Sunday at 3 o'clock. Mrs. C. E. Verity left yesterday for an extended visit with her parents at Wis ner, and also to secure medical treat ment for little Florence whose health has recently been very poor. Mrs. Folsom, mother to Mrs. Grover Cleveland, was married recently to a wealthy man of Michigan, The Lincoln Journal kindly expresses the hope that she has made a better choice than her daughter. F. C. Silkensen, Secrerary of the Buffa lo Gap Lumber Co. , was in town this week looking after the Co's. interests in Sioux County. He was pleased with the improved appearence of the country and found the Co's. business at this place in good condition under the present man ager.
