A subscription paper was circulated among the business men and citizens of Harrison this week to raise funds for a celebration it Harrison the Fourth. We learn that the amount rained Is over If'.'OO and that a celebration is certain. The "tyjw ie aroused the curiosity of some ft Harrison's young ladies Hhm week and several f tlieiu were in to we the little insects, ami they saw tliem. To titose that have 1.0 1 yet a them, come in when we are not too busy ani we will see that tliev are found.

We wish to thank her very much for tlie bright newsy cor respondence she has sent us for publica tiou during the many past issues. We would be pleased if some one else would take up tlie work. The democratic county convention of Sioux bounty, Neb., was belt! ut the court house last Saturday. Uule a numlwr of delegates were prest nt. J.R Hunter, of Andrews, and Carl Lux of this city were elected as delegates to the state convention and were instructed to vote for W.J. Bryan as delegate ut large to the National Convention. The con vention was very harmonious through out all of it deliberations. A goodly mi-iber of our people gath ered at the cemetery Monday afternoon, and decorated the graves. There was a lack id inteit-st lor some rei.son, nnd therefore we did not have a program, and as large a crowd as we ha.I last year There was a gr-at ileal of fault found in the one that got up the wograin hy critics last year but the critics failed to dounvthing this year, therefore there was not much interest taken 111 the day of the dead. We learn that. Miss May Lewis has Iswi engaged as one of I he teachers III Crawford scliool. Mis Lewis was one the graduates t.f that school this rear sisl it surely speaks well for her to be re tained ns a teacher in the school idle graduated from. We can sat'. lv :ay the school hoard of Crawford made a wi.-e choic in selecting her for she proved herself a c ipil. le teacher h'fore she left this county some t wo years ago. Seve-al of or xoinv people are going to attend ihe Junior Normal w hich lo gins at Alliance on June F!:h. This shows that Ihe interest is growing, ami if the leading educators of the North west will only work together our young people will liecoiiiH more interested from year to year. We are sorry that Sheri dan coiin'y has drawn her influence from these Junior Normals for 11. not only weakens her own educational interests but helps to break down the only thing that has Iwen given to the Northwest. The spirit of Malf! -ilmess is the worst thing that confronts mankind. Alliance is the most available point and more cenlral'y located than any town in tl) Northwest, and why t.ot all stand united on this as nil can't, have it and the rising generation will thank us for tlu unity. IShKEZES F110M CESTHAL CITY I have not forgotten our old honman.1 friends if I have been silent for some ti..ie. Both Harrison papers make then weekly visits and none are read with more interest. We read of the storms, cioud bu is! hail but .is yet w mv had no more rain than M needed. Crops are doing line and farmers began plowing com Inst week. We had some late frosts that probably damaged fruit some. It would have cooked our l;ans but they were too tempting to loose so we saved them by covering them. The first crop of alfalfa is about ready to harvest. We are counting on strawberries next Sun day. Most makes my back ache to watch the blossoms coming out, they are so thick. A goodly number of people here are talking of going west to take homesteads. Six-hundred and forty acres of land looks like u big thing to a man that has rented here for years, or only has an eighty. Hope there will be enough to go around. Tho yalleyit.es have considered James Wilson a stand by for so long, they will miss him very much. Howard and Mont Burke have a long trip this time and we are much interested in their letter, Hope Howard will write ofteu. Perhaps we may meet them some time, unless they get home sick, for old Sioux and return before we (?et started. F. W, went lo North Loup to attend Quarterly meeting and was so pleased to meet, an old friend tlmre. Oiaiidm.'i Davis is there visiting rel.-.tives anil she has promised us u visit before she returns home, Wo have, bean anxious to know whether Mrs. Kite is going lo accept the position offered her or not. We liojed slie wmild. and cerae around this way lietore we leave. We received acortHal invitation from Mr. Hester Vj look over th.-.t country lefore we locate aiaui. We find we have several old frieials at Paonia. and bear it is in the best, fruit county in the state. We were much inte ested in the report of Cwm-meis-ement exercises at Harrison, and hope the gooc! work will go on. Central City High School turned out seven graduates Friday night and live wiil graduateat the College m xtweek unless ttie measles get wor-e they have Iwen a regular epidemic, "three day-" or "German measles, but Phebe nnnaged to have the genuine article tins time and was in lied rune days. I beard Rev. ('arrahao preach the memorial sermon to-day. The address is to lie given by Mrs. Condon of Pawnee fjity to-morrow with other appropriate exercises. For fear of the basket I will leave the rest till next time. ('IJO. ABOUT TJ IE JAPS AND RUSSIANS. WJiuttJie ,TaiM Ilavc Done. The Japanese have sunk or disabled fully two tlcrds of the Russian fleet. They have beaten the Russians back from the Y tin almost to tluir interior base, Mukden. Thev have cut t he Russian line behind Port Arthur and driven in the first tie fenses. Port Arthur now seems doomed, with its fall will come the end of Rus sia's power in Manchuria. Win t Russians! lluvo Done. They have sunk or disabled several torpedo boa's, destroyed the battleship Haisuse, sunk a transport or so and ut terly fuihd to cripple the mikado's navy. Thev have won several trilling detach ed (I) hts oi) land, due principally to the pfiwerets of the Cossacks. They have made the Japanese pay dearly in human life for their victories.

TI10 15iitl Jioy ami tlic School This item is for the II I teen-yea r old hoy who thinks that it is a smart thine to act up so mean ut school that, he wears out the life of his teacher anil de s troys the j;nod work which the schoo was intended to accomplish. This sort of bov is found in country as well as in city schools. Liiey are too i)i; 101 i lit tle woman to thrash and seem to have no moral sense which may be appealed to Now , boys, you nrt; the architects of your own fortunes. You can improve Ihu educational advantages triven you anil become useful and worthy citi zens or you can raise Cain, as you do in scliool, graduate from there into a brake beam tramp and die 11 dirty bum. You can make jour choice. The sure way to net into plenty of trouble w lr:n Brown lo niunhood is to make lotsol" trouble in the public schools. Y'ou oiii,'lit to have the meanness well licked out of von, but the teacher can't do it, your father won't and the school board had rather fire you than tick you. Fun and plenty of it is a bin bright of the American boy, but your type of man ners is not fun; it is the outcropping of the heathen in you. and you belong with the Moroa or Tapils of the Philip pines rather than with the people of civilized North America.
