Yesterday evening occured the worst hail and rain storm that visited this sec tion of the country. The" .storm we had month ago raised the Cottonwood creek higher than it ever was known to be before, and this time the creek was fully three feet higher than then. We have not yet been able to ascertain tlie amount of damage done to crops but it moat have been considerable. Hike I arrol had the misfortune to be concerned with a weak latigo rope while iding on the Ciieyenne river last week. He was riding a "high jumper" and the result was a broken hand.

He was seen on a west bound train in Harrison last week and he told persons here that ha was bound for Cheyenne. He has lived with a woman in Chadron for nurn far of years who was supposed to be his wife. Recently he sent her to Chicago and after she was gone he told some of his friend tliat she was not his wife. People who know him best went not sur prised at anything ho would do. School Notes.-? The registration and attendance exceeds eighty at the present time, which is gtod for the second week. It is quite evenly divided among the rooms. ' The boys desire to thank all who helped them in raising niooey for their base ball material. A team will likely be organ ized and practice begun. Frank Houston of Andrews entered Tuesday. The enrollment from without the district is not so large aa last year, but is increasing. Fred O'Conuer has been promoted a grade as tlie result of his studious meth ods, Fred always gives a good account of himself at class. Some new books have been ordered and they will do much to make tha work bet ter and brighter in all grades. Tlie heavy attendance in the Seventh and Eighth grades has made books for that work scarce. The class in geology are quite familiar with our common rocks and their struc ture, origin and use. Field work will be done on Saturdays and all are invited to take the trips with them whether in the class or not. Bert Force, whose parents recently moved to town, will review the Sixth grade work and take work with the Seventh the remainder of tha year. Hull's Complete Algebra will be used in the Tenth and at the end of tlie year there will be sometgood mathmeticians as a result. It is one of the latest and best higher Algebras on the market. The beginning class in Algebra are al ready working in simple equations and like the work very well. It is to be re gretted that our higher clashes are the smallest. These items will be in pari edited by the class in Rhetoric during the year as a part of their work. oOrooooooooooooov In Iry, at thU place, Hie post quartermaster.sergeant will soon occupy his new quarters on the "Green line.".. -jWe regret to learn that Mr. Hendricks, late of this post anrf who went to Fort Grnt, A.
