Tba 17tb Ltd a hard light yesterday, there w*s six wounded bat no aae killed. There was about . 0 In-argeata killed sod JjO guna < aptured. Tbe great town they sail Tarla k, was taken tbe other day. Tkat waa Aggy a bee Iqdarter*, bit be and bis rose fled and tbera waa not a abet fired. A captain and ♦•rive i|en weot a boat 4 miles north ef Tar-ack, and captured a fraio with Aggy a punting press and all t a papers and : 0 gnus. He is ear* rounded ea ail sides sad will be roaipellad to surrender aaoo or fight hi* way through, but never will do that fee ih*>v wt t.watla. There urst * ijh- of our cavalry drove about 100 of them from their trenches, just as soon as they are charged they ran, they vaa t stand steel. I don’t know why it is but they don’t like the Americans, for they shoot • nd run at them at the same time. They bold their guns at their hip and fire. If I had my choice of the lines 1 would lake the front, for the reason that they shoot so high that the rear line is in the most danger of being snot. There has been more killed on the reserve line than in frooL I think by the time this reaches you we will be through with the fighting, and will only have the towns to guard. Tliere may be bands of them around but not very many of them, there are more of what they call bolo men than any other. They bother us, they crawl up near and then cut ns as they have knives about two feel long and can staod off 40 teet and cut you all te pieces. Well the rest of my com pany has gone on out post duty and I was left in charge of company .uarters so I will continue my let ter. I have had my dinner, I had a can of salmon and beans. Well I guess 1 will dose for this time hop iag to hear from you soon. From soar brother. 4 F. H. Peddicoro, Co. A, 32nd Reg U. S.

Itba8b*en demonstrated repeatedly ia every sta'e in tbe Union and in many foreign countries that Chamber ai»'s Gough Remedy is a certain preventative sad cure f *r croup. It has become the universal remedy for that disease. M* V. Fi*ber of Liberty, W. Va„ only re peats nbat has been said around the globe when he wrote: “I have used Chamberlain'* Cough Remedy ia my family for several >ears and alwaya with perfect tucces. We believe that It is not ooiy the best cough remedy, but that it ia a sure cure for croup. It has saved the lives of our children a num ber of times.** This remedy is for sale by Odcttdabl Bros.

Tockey of Louo City, spent, Friday with friends at this place. The free dance given last Wed nesday evening at the opera bouse by the Beatrice Creamery Co., in honor of the opening of the cream ery at this place, wa9 well attended, and everyone present 6eemed t® do their utmost to have a pleasant time, and all went away satisfied. The tei.ts made of tbe milk deliv ered Wednesday proved beyond a doubt that tbe dairy business is tbe one that our farmers want to take hold of, as the tests ran from t to 6 pounds of butterfat to the 100 lbs. of milk, and upon consultiug statis tics we find that Ashton’s record is even better than the average by a goodly per cent. We hear that Leon Jezwski has been appointed township treasurer in the place of J. E. Conklin resign ed. A SNAP! Who is willing to take a snap when offered? Just think of a whole quarter section of land with in 5 miles of Ashton for sale at the small figure of $1,200. Full particu lars can be had of W. M. Smelser, Ashton, 2seb. Mr. and Mrs. W. M.

We arrived at the youeg metropolis jest as Old Sol was prepar ing to retire, and after a general Intro duction, a hearty supper and a smoke, we retired to seclusion and begun an ad vance on tbe orient. After several hours of hostilities, a truce was declared and our old friend Adam Conhiser, proceeded to errect tables and with the assiatance ef brothers soon bad a ban quet spread that would have tickled tbe palet of a god, and we all proceeded with one time and the same motion to do justice to the grand hospitality of Mr. Conuiser, after whieb we retired to pleasant dreams. Sunday we again were the guests of Mr. Conhiser at the noon hour and ate a delightful dinner prepared by Mrs. Conhiser and her ais ter-in-law, Mrs. S. F. Reynolds, of this city who is visiting with them. This was our first trip to the eastern metropolis of Custer county and the impresaion left with us was like into that of Moses when he was allowed to gaze upon the promised land. The val ley at this point is one of great beauty and fertility and had not the mistake been made of locating tbe river on the wrong side of it. Had not this eccured tnat particular part of the Middle Loup valley might be styled tbe garden of tbe gods, where flows the proverbial milk and (the) honey(ies) are awaiting tbe lips of the handsome swain to test its sweetness. Sargent has a lodge of Odd Fellows that she cao he proud of aud with sueh men at its head as Mr. Con biter and Mr. Nicoli, it will never be lacking in doing their duty in the way of extending the right hand of fellow ship.
