He managed to 'secure one of the animals, the other getting away, hut later caught at a farm house and brought back, when by a series of repairs to harness and buggy he was enabled to drive on into town about three hours behind schedule time, nothing the worse for the ex perience, except for his rough and tumble fall and the general ruffling up of hi» usually amiable good nature.

Loup City always patriotic and mindful of National days, outdid her self in preparing and carrying out a fitting observance of last Thursday— Decoration Day. About 10 o’clock a. m. the parade formed on Main street, led by the Loup City band and school children and composed of the speaker of the day, soldiers of the G. A. R. and Spanish-American wars, the ladies of the relief corps, kindred organizations and citizens. Marching to the opera house a program of much merit was carried out. There was appropriate music by a large chorus choir and choice solos by Messrs. A. J. Johnson and Rev. Guernsey and Mrs. A. B. Outhouse. Mr. Ashley Conger surprised the audience by his splendid rendition of Lincoln’s Gettys burg address: Rev. G. H. Wise offered the invocation, Rev. L. C. McEwen presided, announcing the program and introducing the speaker of the day, Hon. John W. Long, who carried ills large audience with him from the start and received hearty applause when he had finished. The address was carefully and logically thought out and eloquently delivered. This was our first opportunity of hearing Mr. Long on such an occasion and we are confident that should he care to enter ‘ the arena as a public speaker no mean place would be assigned to him. At the close of the exercises the crowd, which more than filled the opera house, dispersed until 1:30 o’clock, when the parade formed again in similar manner and took carriages to the cemetery, where the graves of the departed heroes were appropriate ly decorated by the school children and brief services conducted.
