Mr. Shatto and bride reside Mr fcirtloy, and they have many friends who wlb them a long and happy life. The Pbo Jofwui. extends best wishes, hoping their married life may be one continual round of pleasure. We were pleased to make the acquaint ance of Mr. and Mrs, (). E. Alcolt, in the tutli part of this county, during our wit in that part of Uie county last week. We were also at J. L.

On our recent visit to the Junior Nor mal at Alliance we failed to see any teachers from Sioux county while there was a fairly good number from the counties; shame on the teachers of this county and we hope the school boards will lemember the ones tftat do attend later on and will show their appreciation by an advance in their wages. We con sider this the greatest opportunity that has ever been offered our teachers in this north-west, and if a school teacher ex pects to get any thing with out making some sacrifice they must be of the lucky number. We are pleased to know that Sioux Co. has one prospective teacher Miss Ma1! Bigelow who is not letting this opportunity go by and we know she will be Uie gainer in time to come. In the death of Rev. Charles E. Rice of Hotchkiss Col. as chronicled in last weeks issue the world has lost one of the most ardent Christian men that it has ever been our pleasure to meet, while Mi', Rice was weak physically his bearing a a Christian man was worthy of example by all. We onlv wish the world had i any such men as he was not physically hut spiritually for he will ever lie as a living monument, to those that he came in contact with as to what it takes to make a Christian. Mr, Rice has many friends in all Sec tions of this part of the country, who will be pained to learn cf hisdenth, know ing that his life, was a pattern of the one whem it was his pleasure to serve. The PRB-JoiRNALextends sympathies to the bereaved wife, and relatives. Hunter Happenings. Fine weather for Grass hoper or Clod hopper.

Released from pain and suffering here. none to uieir rest, nave two ol our friends since we last sent items. One so oung and ambitious to have to give up life ho early, makes it seem so sad, and the other so full of good works all his life. We almost question, why must it be so when so many less valuable lives are spared? It makes heayen seem not very far away. Unsold earth ship is continually leaving loved ones on the evergreen shores, never to return to us, but when the Master calls shall we be ready to go over also? What is life, when death is but the beginning of life eternal? Rev. Rice and wife were we!, come guests at so many of our homes for many years, and his cheerful, happy disposition won his way to every heart. How sadly will he be missed, but he has gone from works to rewards. Picked our Orst mess of strawberries yesterday. A good deal of corn will have to be replanted, but the ground is to wet to work now. Commencement week is over and the student have returned to their homes after a hard years work, Ooly two to graduate this year and they are from the College. The Academic course has Hilded one more yeir, so there were no grad uates from that department this year. At this writing F. W, is sick in bed and haa ben for several days, but under the skillful hands or Dr. Brown he has been brought through a very critical period and Is gelling along as well as sny one could. He will be able to sit up in a few days If he continues to improve. 8n much wet weather the l)rs. are fer rful of a good deal of stomach and bowel trouble. Cuo. Agate Phrases At you ueem to have no correspimilent in Agate, I will try to send you a few items that I have gathered "at an immenoe sacrifice of tune and labor," The patriotic people in these parts in tend to celebrate the glorious 'Fourth' by a picnic in Mr. Harris grove and a daoce in his capacious building on Running Water. A good time is expected. Grandma Miller aud Mrs. Myers arrived from Cherry County to visit Mrs. John Kay , da ug h tor and sister, respect i vel y , of the above ladies. Misses Anna and Nora Neece are back home from theChadron Academy, where they spent tho last nine months. We have had plenty of rain during the past weeks and the old saying that a wet Easter makes 10 wet Sundays proved true this year. The country looks fine in its fresh green dress; Uie cattle are picking up and doing nicely. Messrs. 11 arris and Mellon intend to build a school house and to employ teacher. Mr. R. T. Neece is employing an instructor now. It seems but fair that men paying their children's tiution ou of their own pockets ought to have thei pro rata of the Slate money provided they employ a competent teacher. As it is now, the country furnishes no educa tional facilities to many children, bu gets a share of the State money by rights belonging to them. An effort will tin deubtly be made to remedy this cond tion. Sckiba. 5 In Wyoming. 00000400OsKe A few have been loosing cattle by the bluckleg route lately. With sorrow we read of the death of Rev. C. E. Rice, at Hotchkiss, Col. We nave Known Mr. nice lor several years having gotten acquainted with him while we lived near Bodarc. To Mrs, Rice and family we extend our sincerest sympathy; and can say that the readers of the Pkkkb-Jouknal in this community nil sympathize deeply with her, ns they know her through tho correspondence from Hotchkiss.- - - - Mrs. free met with quite a serious accident week ago last Monday night which came very near casting- her life, Hhe had been yisiting Mrs. Sides and left there lor home about rj o'clock. Th. Kirse tnai sue was ruling tell quite gay and when about half a mile from hu..ie 'he rare u,j, and prance up, and kick uj lis huels," throwing Mr 4. Frees over his Ik ad to Uie ground, where she was found hy her husband sometime later greatly cruuea ana in a uaxel state. Hhe was taken home and the doctor sent for, wtto arrived at 5 o'clock the next morning un examm.ition it was lound that one fore arm, just above the wrist, sustained a compound fracture, while the other had one, if not both hones, broken jusl above the wrist. The fractures were re duced as best thev could be ou account of the swollen condition of the arms. On last Friday, as she was suffering grent deal, she was taken to Luxk, but we hear that the doctor could not do much to relieve the pain. At presenl sne is rusting easier ana uoing as well us could he expected, The neighbors are all very kind and doinK all that they can te make her comfortable. Mrs. Church, Sr., is and has been, con stantly by her bedside, doing the house work and ministering to Iter wants. We all sincerely hope that she will soon be able to get out again. Next 8unday being Childrens' Day, their teacher. Miss Florence Christian, has prepared a good programme and practicing the emiuren in the various parts, so that we can expect a good and profitable service at the hall Sunday. Miss Amy Christian closed h r shhool in Manville last week and arrived home on last Saturday. Miss Florence Christ ian has been engaged to teach the prim ary department there the next term.

John nod Laney Sutton expect to make an overland trip to visit their brother Albert, at Kay See, In the near, future. Mis Bertha Thompson, who is mi (Tur ing with inflamalory rheumatism, Is a little batter at last report. Oeorge Davis has been having trouble with hi pump, and at time i short nn wain. Mrs. J. U. Williams is still quite poor ly, but we hope to hear of her recovery aooo, --- We hope that Bouquet does not think far a minute that we have a spite against White River. Far from it, some of our happiest days in the west were spent a long the banks of that beautiful stream. We,may be mistaken,, but w always thought that Glen was on While River. As we write these items, the day be fore Monday, hail is falling as large as snipes' egs. Mr. and Mrs. A. Christian went to Link ou last Friday, returning on Saturday J. A. Rice and family' passed througl here, with a prairie schooner, enroute to Agate ranch on Galloping water. Yes Peggy, we are glad to know that our neighbor, Mr. Wilson, is taking such an interest in Sunday Schools and meet ings, He is a regular attendant at ou meetings here. W hear that Mr. Steve Eidridge, who lives in the valley near Mr. Deuel's, was ran down and seriously hurt at his ranch on Cottonwool a few days ago. W sincerely hope that it may not be serious as roported. An eclipse of the Bun (Harrison) occurr ed on lat Friday, and it wasn't hilled in the almanac either. When it came to our table and was opened, lo, it would "frox your whiskers" to see the page of local news. The correspondents too must have gone on a visit. Well, Sun we'll excuse you this time, but don' keep it up all summer. What's the matter with Clio and M. A C? Wake up and say something. Those fellows in Drouthy Kansas, wh live along the Smokey Hill und Caw rivers from Salma down, had bette come to western Nebr. or eastern Wyo where we just have enough rain and n more. Laney Sutton came out to the Ridge on last Sunday. We surmise that he and John started on their trip to Kav See on Monday, Wo hear that Cora Davis was thrown from hr pony and drugged a short dis tance, one day last week. She escaped with few slight bruises. J. H. -New I'm and family ami Mrs. E va El Christian and daughter Nellie were sight seeing in your city on last Monday To the Teachers of Sioux County, The railroad will arrant a rate of a fare nd one-third ort the certificate plan f. Monday and Tuenlav, June 22 and 2'.i. These are the only Alliance dates on which reduced sales will be made to except August tt and 10 which is named in the bulletin I have mailed to each teacher in Sioux. County. I wish to impress upon every teacher and proHuective teacher in the county the good which can he derived from the Norm.-il tit Alliance. I am sure if Vuu clearly realized what you are letting pass by within the reach of every one of you that you would make an effort and a HHcrrilloe to attend all of the term you posibly can. The following is what Supt. rowlerhas to say in regard to the school. '! trust every Superintendent addressed in this letter will use all ret- sonable means to secure a liwj;e attend ance from the teachers of his county at the Alliance Junior Normal. This appropriation is only for Dim ensuing biennium, and unless your counties show by a liberal patronage that vou appieciate and that you will profit by such iriv leges the legislature two years hence will in all prolstbility refuse to ms!: anoUier apprupriatian. It therefore rests with the County Superintendents whether or not this school shall be mantained your territory, If we expect success I believe it is absolutely necessary for you to do away with your county Institute and give the Junior .Normal a fair trisl and a clear wny. The last week of the Junior Normal school will be Institute week; but remember that we must work for ii good attendance from every county (or the full term. I believe wben the matter s properly presented to your teachsrs they will be ready to make some sac rifice aud some effort to profit by the advantages offered them at Alliance, very teacher who attends this school for the entire term will be worth at least tli a month mora to her school. I urge pon the school officer of your county, therefore the plea, of simple justice when I say that they should pay higher salaries to teacher who thus prepare for their work than for indifferent teacher who do not attend, On this plan and in this pint, I ask the hearty co operation of very teacher In your county, every sohool-ftOlcer as well us vour own best fforls for tatter teachers and better hool " I trust each teacher will give the school trial and thus prepare for advancement of our educational interest of this coun- Coau pAMOa.
