The anthem by the choir and the quartet number both showed the results of the diligent and faithful work done by that choir. The rendition of “Judge me, O! God” by Dudley Buck, gave Mr. McKinnle an opportunity to produce those tones which always captivate bis audiences. The address by the pastor on “The Carpenter of Nazareth” was timely and thoughtful and made everyone glad he had a part in the work of the world. About as jolly a band of “Indians” as you will find came in on the Union Pacific last Thursday and drove up to the McKinnie Bros. “Valley View” ranch. The band was headed by “Captain Clip,’! sometimes known as Geo. W. Fairchild, with “Smokehouse Pete,” otherwise Peter J. McCaffrey, second in command. These gentle men are known as expert fisherman and with the assistance of Geo. W. Turner have demonstrated that the Middle Loup abounds in gamey and edible fish. Their first catch consist ed of sixteen fine specimens of bass, pike, channel cat and black buffalo, all caught with rod and reel. It was not known that pike could be caught this far up the river. Accompanying the firsherman are three other “Indians,” “Old Horse,” “Farley” and “Ben,” known also as J. Turner, L. A.

Atlantic liners to the number of fifty have wireless telegraph appar atus to communicate with forty-eight land stations. Sixty British and twenty-four Italian war vessels are so equipped. Town Built Over Coal Mine. Many buildings in Motherwell, Scot land, look like the leaning tower of Pisa. The little town is built over tho side of a coal mine. Some houses have collapsed, business is at a stand still, and the town will probably soon be deserted. Examination Fever.

About two-thirds of this is taken up by the boilers, and the re mainder is used for drinking, washing, cooking, etc. When the store which she has taken out with her from port has been used, a vessel has to depend upon her evaporators for further sup plies. Every modern warship is fitted with evaporating machinery to distill the sea water. A Cure for Diphtheria. A very simple and yet most effective remedy for diphtheria is nothing but the juice of the pineapple, which the patient should be forced to swallow. The fluid is of so pungent and corro sive a nature that it cuts the diph theria mucous and causes it to disap pear. The corrosive nature of the juice is shown by the fact that if a person in good health happens to take the Juice of a pineapple before the lat ter is ripe, the mucous membranes of the throat are apt to become sore. rcport of the Conoition of THE Rockyilie State Bank OP ROCKVILLE, NEB.
