A letter was received by H. A. Cun ningliam the first of the week from Dr. Bridgman stating that he expected to drive through from Rushville and would arrive sometime this week providiug the weather was good. So he may be here any day ready to take up his residence with us. Our farmers should get ready tp plant fruit and ornamental tree as soon as circumstances will admit Small fruits of all kinds have done exceedingly well whenever . tried and by planting them the farmers can soon have delica cies for the table with no outlay of cash except for the plants. It will prove a good investment. Papers were signed in the city yes terday by which E, D, Satterlee, of Har rison, leases the Hoyt hotel for a term of five years. Mr. Satterlee is an old hotel man and Mrs. Satterlee is an ac complished and successful landlady. The hotel will be furnished throughout with new furniture and opened about April 1st. Chadron Journal. In conversation with Wm. Glaze last Saturday he informed us that he would put in about CO acres of small grain the coming season. He also stated that there would be no cultivated land lay idle in Cottonwood precinct this sea son and there will be a good deal of breaking done in that locality. That kind of a report means prosperity. The farmers are getting anxious for spring lo open so that they can get to putting in their crops. Early sowing and early planting have been found to be the best here, as well as in the east and the indications are that a much better grade of farming will be done in future than bus been the rule in the past. When Ieople get to farming here as they do in the older settled sections they will get much tetter returns. Last Monday some one either acci dentally or maliciously shot a cow be longing to Geo. H. Turner in the jaw. The wounded animal has a badly swelled j'iw and limy die. Mr. turner hdieves he knows who committed the act and feels pretty warm under the collar about it. Jf it was done maliciously the guilty party ought to I' punished, and in any event no one should handle firearms so carelessly about the town. The shot this time struck a cow but the next time a child may be the victim. From the reports we gathered it is not likely that any cultivated land will lay idle in Sioux county unless it is little patches that are so far from any one as to require too much travel. Last year was about the first year any real farm ing was done in Sioux county and but little good farming was done then on ac count of the lack of feed for teams, but the result of last year was such, that the farmers are going at it in earnest the coming season and not only will there be a large acreage sown but a large amount of breaking will be done for the seasons to follow. Last week H. A. Cunningham re ceived a telegram informing him that his father had been killed by the cars at his home in Wisconsin. A letter came later which stated that Sir. Cunningham was engaged in unloading a car of wire and an extra train came along which was not expected. The whistle of the engine frightened his team and it started to run and dragged him on the track on which the train was approaching and both horses and driver were killed. The report states that the train was running at a rapid rate and was not to stop, so there was no chance of getting out of the way. The Nebraska world's fair commis sion has written to the county officials regarding a case for exhibits at the world's fair. The case costs $50 and has been adopted by every county in the W the past i state except Sioux. The matter came I up at t lie lust meeting of the board, but it them, we are informed i there are no county funds to be appro i well pleased with the priated for any such purpose, and the I Bartell is daily expect- board could do nothing. It has been In-law who was here last suggested that contributions be made to I every one we Ulk with ' raise t he amount.

D, W. Woody and family visited at a! W. Mohr's last Sunday. Mr. Baumgard's oldest son has hired out to Mr. F. Nutto for the coming sea son. Jas. Wilson is hard at work 'digging post holes. He is. building a pasture fence. County Supt. Southworth made a bus-' iness trip to Sipiaw creek last Thursday and his family visited at F. W, Keott's. Mr. J. W, Earnest has purchased an other lot of Aberdeen-Angus cattSe and drove them through Gilchrist last week. After careful investigatson he Is con vinced that it is the best breed of cattle. Mr. M. Blewett is expected soon to live on and improve his claim. Some people are ready to believe that he may bring a cook with him. ' Mr. Mitchell of Bodarc was a Gilchrist caller Monday. . Earnest Uplinger and Rob Miller were grinding corn at the Gilchrist feed mill Friday. ., Miss Lulu Woody has been unable to attend school part of the time during the past two weeks on account of the grip" and weak eyes. She reports many of the students at Chadron alllicted with the grip, J. Thorns is very much pleased over the arrival, last Saturday, of a nephew of his from the old country. He stoped in New York four months then came on here to make his future home. Cliarley Redd thought to treat his mother and sister to a sleighride last Wednesday and also to introduce them to the P.O., but his sled broke down, when about half a milo from Mr. Wohl heter's. and they hud the pleasure (!) of walking back. He made the trip suc cessfully, however, last Sunday. We are informed that Mrs. A. W. Mohr has found a successful way to stop the growth of puppies. They had a very pretty little puppy and she thought it would be so nice to always keep it small as a pet for her little ' girl. She gave it some whisky and It proved a success, for it will grow no more. As to the weather this winter, so far we have nothing to complain of in Sioux county. We have had some cold weather, to be sure, but not. to compare with many other places. Eastern kan sas has had the coldest weather ever known in the state. The peach buds are all considered killed and many of the trees; vegetables and fruits frozen in the cellars to a great extent, and Iowa has lost more house-plants than ever before known, while ours live and blossom in a log house aud without the aid of a base burner, too. Sioux county has its ad vantages as well as some disadvantages, but we are encouraged as to its future. ' UNo. on Saturday. John Pietersen returned from Chadron. A. P. Rosenburg, of Adelia, was in town yesterday. lew of John Thorns arrived from e east last Saturday. J. W. Ricedorfl" was in town Friday and made a pleasant call at this office.

DmucK. enry Wertz has been down from Hot irings for a few weeks looking after his interests in Sioux county. GecwHtbhwer, brother of Landlord wer, of the Harrison House, arrived last Saturday for a few days visit, after which he will return to his home in Oregon. Married. AxrEi!SON Walker. At the residence of the bride's parents, on Monday, Feb ruary 1."), 1892, by E. J. Wilcox, jus tice of the peace, Mr. John A. Anderson and Miss Emma Walker, both of Sioux county, Nebr. The contracting parties are both well known in this community and all wish them prosperity and happiness in their journey through life. Some trouble is reported from school districts in regard to the quality of teachers employed and some even blame the superintendent for issuing certificates to some applicants. This is not right for more than one reason. In the first place there is a demand for more teach ers than can be supplied under the cir cumstances. The school districts are to a great extent to blame for they attempt to get teachers at too low a price. There are two teachers in Sioux county who hold first grade certificates. One of them is teaching for $30 per month and the other for f 35.. At such figures it is not to be expected that teachers will come to the county unless they have some other object than following teach ing. -This matter should have the con sideration of the patrons of the schools, and at the annual meeting provision should be made to pay good wages, even if a less number of months of school be provided. With such provision there will be no trouble to get good teachers and the children will derive more benefit than to go to school the year around to an inferior teacher. School Report.
