Gibson, county bridge con tractor retuned Lome from Scott town ship last Saturday evening where he has been doing some bridge building. Mr. Gibson reports bridges in different parts of the county in very bad con dition and in several instances it Is necessary to construct new bridges. Since he began work last spring he has purchased and used 100,000 feet of bridge lumber and two car loads of piling and the cod is not vet. This material has cost about 82200. besides die cost of construction, etc. Many of the bridges that have been re-built were so badly rotted out that they were dangerously weak. As soon as the weather is settled he will return to Scott township and continue the work. The new grist mill is up, finished an painted on the out side, and the work men are very busy finishing up the inside and getting ready for the ma chinery. The wheel house is very substantially built and the water from the race (lows through the barrel made of heavy two inch stuff and about 40 feet in length. The barrel is placed in the race at the point where the bridge stood. Around the barrel is a substantial filling ot earth and brush which make a splendid crossing for teams to pass over. The building as it now stands is a square structure, with basement and three doors, the tlrst floor being about four feet from the ground level, giving about a six or seven foot brick basement and foundation. This building looks fine in its new coat of white paint and is a structure of which our people justly feel proud. C. VV. Sours, photographer op posite St. Elmo Hotel. ,J. S.

How many new houses have gone up in Loup City in tiie past year any way? Well to answer this we must stop and think a little, and then we are not sure that we have them all Anyway there is the fine residence of A. M. Bennett, and the house and barn built by Geo.

They are all women of splendid vocal talent and gave the audience a rare treat in both instrumental and vocal music.

E church of this city, who guarantees to them $160.00 for the series and also pays #30.00 hall rent and *11 hotel bills, making a total of about #220. We are informed by the management that about #200.00 of the amount lias al ready been raised and as we have the assurance that the rest of the series are of eq ual merit it would seem that the obligation would be easily met and a handsome profit be made for the church management. The following are the dates set for the remaining four entertainments: James Clement Ambrose, Lecture, November otb. Edwin FolDnsber, Lecture, Decem ber llth. Midland Consert Company, January 16th. James Lorenzo Zweckey, Chalk Talk Artist, February tilth. The walk leading from the cornel of the square to the North western otlice Is in a frightful condition and some of these days the owners oi that particular piece of property will have a damage suit on their hands. There Is a great deal of travel along this walk. In faet it is one of the main walks of the city Xo less than twenty school children pass over it four times a day, and all ladies generally choose this side of the street instead of pass ing in front of the livery barn on the opposite side where usually noisy crowds are congregated and teams are continually driving out and in the barn and over the walk. Last Tuesday night Mr. Kedcleft, in the darkness, went with almost breakneck force into the mud hole at the end of the alley cross ing and only a few nights before that ye editor took a fall that we will not get over for several days. We have noticed many other missbaps of more or less dangerous character. It is the duty of the village board to enforce the build ing of a sidewalk along this property, and one too, that will meet the require ments ot the ordinance. We invite tha attention ot the chairman and all mem bers of the board to inspect the delap itated condition of this walk and the lug whole at the end of the alley cress ing which has been broke down and dug out by heavily loaded dray wagons. As a passer by put it the other day "it is next tiling to a leap for life to jump it." Then how can a lady or a small school girl manage to get over w ithout getting in the mud. They simply can not do it. In fact grown people even nu n, cannot get over without jumping. And in jumping is where the danger 1 i. Most people would prefer wading t > running the risk of lighting on a slippery plank. There is hardly a day but what some one from the country, w ho happens to drop our way speaks of the deplorable condition of this walk :.nd wonder who the property be 1 mgs to. . - As I have sold my business place lu re in Loup City I will be out of bus 1 . ss tor a short time and I wish lo think my many friend s and custo iti* rs wh > have patronized me in the past and hope they will no forget me in a business way in the future. I have not gone away to stay, but have only gone to Omaha to finish my barber trade. Yours Respectfully, G. II.

A. year ago last October my hogs took sick and 1 tried every thing Tcould think of but no good came of it. So your agent Kirkpatrick came along and I took a can of Liquid Koal. I had about 90 hogs all sick, I shut them up in a small pen and made every hog take his medicine and I saved one bali of iny hogs. If I had not used Liquid Koal I am sure I would not have saved a hog. I think a man stands In his own light that does not keep Liquid Koal on band. Use this as you see fit. Yours Wm. Lombabd.
