RATIFICATION. THC A Uaael AtUaaaaoa, U4 lHaasr, a Uoo4 Paose, ad a 0o4 Tlam tuerslly. lflt Thnssday was the date divided on for holding the ratification dinner and ball in commemoratioq of the victory of the Ciiisep's ticket at the polls ia Nov. 7th. For tome time the work of prepar alion had been going on and nlion Thursday, arrived the details were as near completed as could be. The day was th ooldest of the season and stormy weather was threatened ami those condition det-red nianr from at tending. As it was dinner was served at the court house from I o'cloi k till " and about two hundred people were ltd. The dinner . was a success in every respect and many were Hut compliments paid to it by those who partook of it. The program of speeches had to be abandoned as it was impassible to ac commodate those who came there to dinner and carry out a program. The danpe in the evening was well at tended and over one hundred were served with supper at Scott's restaurant, so thai part of the arrangement cannot be said to be a failure. The music was fur nisiied by Messrs, Cunningtjam, Bartlett and Dew and was of the same good quality always furnished by them, so that all were satisfied on that score The attendance was not nearly so large either at the dinner or ball as it would have been had the weather been less severe, for few were present from any great distance from town and a great many had expressed their intention of being present who failed to put in an appearar.ee. A special invitation was sent to each of the defeated candidates, but it seemed tliat none of them are io a very good humor for not one of them accepted the courtesy extended, and their ill-natured act simply shows they are mad because the people did as they pleased and refus ed to continue or put them in office, but it did not spite any one but themselves. Taken as a whole the entire atrair was a success and all who attended enjoyed themselves to a high degree, Those who were interested in the affair desire us to express their tlumks to the ladies who assisted in preparing and serving the dinner for thev realize that without such assistance it would have been impossible to have cared for all who came to partake of the hospitality offered. DIED. Kkndaix On Tuesday morning, Novem ber 27, 189H, Taylor Elliott, only son of Rev. and Mrs. J. W. Kendall, aged 8 years, 8 months and 17 days. . So again has the grim Reaper visited us and removed from among us, by the aid of that dreadful disease, diphtheria, an other young life that was most dearly loved by all. The little fellow was first taken ill a week ago last Monday, but the true disease was not recognized until several davs later. All that could be done by human hands was done by lov ing parents and tender friends, but all to no purpose, he gradually growing worse until Tuesday morning when the spirit took flight, with seemingly much suf fering to the little body. Taylor was conscious up to the last moment, but being unable to speak made known his wants by means of signs and gestures. He fully realized that he was soon to puss to his lost beautiful Home and talk ed freely of things which most interested his parents. The funeral services were held from the house on Wednesday at 11 o'clock, conducted by Rev. A. R. Jul ian, of Chadron, presiding elder.
