Rural Route Carrier Conger had an exciting breakdown over on Clear Creek last Saturday. As he was driv ing up a steep hill, the doubletrees broke, tugs bkame unhitched and his carrier gig backed down about 100 feet and only saved from strewing its contents by the roadside by James’ prompt work. The team stood pat, merely turning to eye Jim on his backward march with wondering eyes. No serious damage, and the delay only causing the mail to be a few minutes longer on the road. On Monday morning occurred the marriage of Miss Josie Johns, daugh ter of Rudolph Johns, and Mr. Ignac Kalkowski of Ashton, at the Catholic church in this city, Rev. Father Jarka officiating. After the ceremony, a reception was given at the home of the bride's parents, lasting the after noon and evening, with all the en joyments of a lirst-class Polish wed ding. The Northwestern tenders congratulations to the estimable young couple, both of whom are well and favorably known among our people. Jim Conger, the carrier on the new route, lias set the pace for carriers elsewhere, by making the best of schedule time along the route. Post master Owens informed a postoffice inspector the other day that Mr. Con ger had not varied three minutes on starting out in the morning and re turning in the evening since he be gan his labors, which the inspector says is the best report he lias had from any carrier in his jurisdiction. Our farmer friends along the route also affirm the good report, saying Jim is “Johnny on the spot” every day almost to the minute. The good people of Webster town ship and its officials are making a very commendatory effort to put the road west of the bridge more passable. The farmers are donating work and the officials are going to extra ex pense to fill in a good solid clay road bed where sand now predominates and will soon have it in fine shape. We would suggest to our commercial club and merchants of Loup City that this would be a proper time to follow the good work of the township bv making the roadway from town to the bridge in equally line shape. Let a move ment along the way of this sugges tion be made at once. Arrangements are being perfected for the laying of the corner-stone of the new Presbyterian church. The ceremony will take place on the grounds next Monday evening, begin ning at 7:30 o’clock.

The program for the occasion is as fol lows: Band, invocation, chorus; greetings by local pastors, duet by Er. and Mrs. Geo. Leininger, address, Rev. Geo. A. Ray, D. D, of St. Paul. Regale quartet and band. The St. Elmo changed hands last Monday, Mr. J. W. Harper selling out his interest in the same to Mr. C. E. Lundy, formerly a hotel man of Friend, this state, and as we under stand a very capable landlord and with a wide experience in that capacity. Mrs. Lundy and the two Misses Lundy, wife and daughters of Mr. Lundy arrived Monday evening. Mr. Harper gave possession at noon on Monday and Tuesday morning lie and his good family left for Aurora, where they will make their home for the present. Mr. Harper lias been a very successful and appreciated land lord of the St. Elmo during Ills short stay, made many friends, and he and his good family depart with the best wishes of our entire people. In this connection, Mr. Harper desires us to thank the people of Loup City, one ahd all, for the courtesy extended to them, both in a business and social point of view, and insists he leaves witli the kindest feeling for each and every one, notwithstanding a certain trouble breeder lias spread a report to the contrary. ffc aic in ic^eiyu ui uupies oi uie Toledo (Iowa) papers of last week which make extended and most favor mention of a musical recital given in the opera house in that city on Mon day evening by our talented Loup City girl, Miss Beth Zimmerman, who has just graduated in the college there in voice culture. In speaking of Miss Zimmerman’s unqualified success before an audience composed of musical critics, one paper says: “Her sweet, clear, mezzo-soprano voice, remarkable in its eveness and range, adapted for lyric and dramatic wort, charmed and pleased all in the room.” Another paper says: “Miss Zimmerman possesses a fine mezzo soprano voice of great flexibility. Her ease of vocalization, combined with a perfect voice control, makes her singing pleasing to both critical and uncritical ears,” The papers then take up the program in detail and ts quite an extent, showing Miss Zimmerman’s recital was the event of the season and reflected the great est of credit upon both school and pupil. The young lady is to be con gratulated on her success, which is pleasing as well to her parents and legion of friends here and elsewhere. Miss Zimmerman will be home this week and will give instruction in vocal and Instrumental music, giving to voice culture her especial attention. She has already quite a class secured, and as she will make of music her life work, it will be of interest and profit to our people to have her with us.

The commencement exercises of the graduating class, held at the opera house last Thursday evening, were of a rather novel nature, a class play being put on in place of the usual orations, and the same interspersed with music by our well known and accomplished "musicians, Mrs. R. P. Starr, the Misses Ernie Odendahl, Nellie House and Meroe Outhouse, and Mrs. Geo. S. Leininger, the latter having the difficult task of playing the music for the artistic drill of six teen little girls, a prettier sight and more perfect movements never hav ing been seen by a Loup City audience. The house was packed to the doors by a pleased and enthusiastic audience and each number and portion of the program being heartily received. The play, “Erin Go Bragh,” was well carried but, each word, deed and act of the players closely listened to and received with encores. Space will not admit of extended mention, and to mention one and not all would be manifestly unfair, for all did credit ably to "themselves and to their friends. At the close of the play, Co. Supt. Mead, in a few well chosen words, presented the gradauting class with their diplomas and the class honors were given Miss Meroe Out house, and so closed one of tiie most interesting and enjoyable exercises ever placed before our people.

It lias been so with ' Manure Spreaders and the users have to foot the bill, that is, pay for > these experiments, which they ought not to do. i When the Litchfield Spreader was brought to its present state of perfection, so that the manufacturers have been able to give the five year guarantee that they do on it, this perfection was made possible v; by the thorough and systematic combination Qf the best modern mechanical principles known to the trade, We will tel) of more of these later on, but in this issue we call attention U) the absolutely % perfect division of the mechanical drive, _ ‘ 1 This principle, as embodied in the Litchfield Spreader, puts absolute and even distribution of the load on to each Qf the traction wheels. This applies both to the distribution and also in the move ment of the load back to the distribution wheel. Unlike many other machines there can be no shirking on the part of either traction wheel. Both traction wheels apply their power at one point and from 1 here the work is again distributed in proportion to the requirement# of the mechanical part of the machine. With this modern Spreader, if you by any means can succeed In getting the conditions so that you can slip one traction wheel, you f slip them both. One of these “power producers” cannot lay down 5 v and let the other wheel “do the work,” as “everybody works *t our | house.” The necessary amount of power to move the load back on the W machine is utilized. The necessary amount of power to distribute it is also applied, but no more. It is difficult for us to explain this perfect mechanical division of the power and the load, but if you will drop in to our warehouse and go over this machine carefully with us we can show you what we are talking about. ’ Come and look at it and tell us what you think of it We also | wish to explain about the traction surface of our conveyer which we »}¥ tfpfng & t|3l| ypu mdre about next week. * , we | T M- PEED,
