Joe Siepmann, our popular butcher, last week purchased fifty-three head of the choicest young corn-fed beeves of J. V. Wescott, a few miles south of town, that it has been his good for tune to secure since he went into business here, and as good as he ever seeured in the butcher business any where. Joe says he hesitated at the good round price asked, but as his trade demanded and paid for tjie best the market could afford, he contract ed ior the bunch at the highest price paid for the best corn-fed cattle of the past few years. Joe is and has been giving his trade the best of meats and in securing this lot of, as he says, the finest he has seen in this locality, he proposes to give his cus tomers (even finer and juicier steaks than he has heretofore, as he affirms “There is no butcher stuffs too good for his trade.” ThatSiepmann’s meat emporium is noted for giving to the custom'the best the market affords, our readers who have given him a trial will bear out the assertion, and when we say that the nice lot of fifty three young corn-fed steers will give them even much finer and choicer steaks than heretofore, we have the guarantee of Mr. Siepmamr to that.

The Lincoln Commercial Club ex cursionists arrived in Loup City last evening on schedule time and were met at the depot by several hundred of our representative citizens. They were accompanied by a fine band, which played at the west end of the depot platform after which Mayor Petersen introduced Banker A. P. Culley, who in a few choice words welcomed the delegation to Loup City. The response was given by T. M. Kennard, the father of the excursion, who spoke glowingly of Nebraska and its future possibilities, after which the excursionists and Loup Cityites marched through the principal street, headed by the band and witnessed by hundreds of spectators lining either side of the street. The procession the ended at the St. Elmo, where Lincolnites were entertained during their stay by our business men with a fine banquet in the evening and breakfast In the morning, the only free entertainment given them so far on their route. After the supper, which was pronounced superb by the visitors, each member visited the business men with whom their par ticular calling has dealing, all busi ness places keeping open house, bril liantly lighted, for their entertain ment. Later in the evening, accom panied by many of our business men, they repaired to their vestibuled train, where the hours were passed in social converse and trade talks. This morning, by using up nearly all the extra steam of the locomotive in a succession of calls for all aboard, the visitors managed to tear “themselves loose from the town, in which they aver to have been treated the' best on their trip so far, and leaving behind new and lasting friendship* between two of the best towns in the state, with the capital of Sherman, as they said, a lap or so ahead of the metrop olis of Lancaster. Loup City is glad they come and sorry they have gone, but the visit will alweys be remem bered by both citizens and visitors as one of the most pleasant episodes in business life. The traip consisted of fourvestibuied sleepers and a baggage car, with some sixty or seventy rep resentatives of the best ftrmsof one of the very best cities of the state. While here the train was connected by through phone service to Lincoln by the Bell Co., so that the visitors were in close touch with their homes and baldness. Through the generous action of our local system and the Bell Col, the phone subscribers here were also given free use of '* Along R.R. No. 1 W. T. Clark Is painting his barn this week. Christ.
