See their adv. in another columa James Keith Murdered Ike Keith of this city received a : telegram last Thursday evening that his brother, James Keith, had been shot and killed at Bridgeport, this state, on that afternoon, and left Friday noon for the seme of the tragedy. Friday morning's papers gave the following short account or the murder, for which it is sai l there was slight provocation: ‘Bridgeport, Neh., Sept. 10.—James Keith, a oar tender from Bayard, was shot ant; killed here this afternoon by Michael II. Ilagerty. a saloonkeeper of this place, as the result of a drunken dis pute. Both men are well known in this part of the state." Mr. Keith will be remembered as visiting his brothers and uncle, Jas. Burnett, here last winter, who also went to Bridge port last Friday. The following facts in regard to the killing is taken from theAlliance Times: ‘‘Many Alliance people are aghast at news that comes from Bridgeport of the killing of James Keith there yesterday afternoon bv Mike Haggerty. The details as given to us by a spectator are to the effect that one of the sisters of Haggertv asked Keith to go and get the horse and buggy belongingto Mike and take her to the ball game. That the rig was in front of Haggerty’s saloon and as Keith was driving away with it. Haggerty came out and ordered him to let it alone; that a little later Keith came back to get-it, was espied bv Haggerty, who ran into his saloon', secured a revolver and fired a shot at Keith, who was on the walk and standing sidewise. The bullet— a32-t‘o steel—passed entirely through Keith, just above the hips and from side to side. He fell backward and was caught by a spectator, expiring in three or four minutes. Deceased was about thirty years of age, had worked ■ for the King family tending bar atBavard for John King and a part of the time in a meat market there. He is quite well known here and the mvsterious part of the affair is that the men have long been considered friends, though have had some quarrels. VYhi!" they are thought to have been drink ing, neither was considered ihtoxicat ed. A large numberof witnesses were standing about and there seems to i)e no provocation for the deed. Haggerty’s friends there are said to have given him such scant sympathy that he hastily secured a rig and started for Sidney, the county seat, to surrender to the sheriff. A mob formed and it is said would have taken the law into their own hands. Haggerty’s saloon was closed. It seems another of the unfortunate and un necessary incidents in life making up the long list chargeable to passions inflamed by liquor, and makes the third killing at Bridgeport traceable to the saloon."

McNulty & Machoski Pretty Home Wedding: A pretty home wedding was solem nized at the home of the bride's parents. Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Daddow in this city. Thursday evening, Sept. 10, 1908, at 8:30 o’clock. The contract ing parties were Miss Edna Grace Daddow and Mr. Charles Norton Lambert. Rev. J. O. Hawk, pastor of the M. E. church, tying the nuptial knot which united the lives of these estimable young people, the ring cere luony being used. Only the immediate relatives of the bride and groom and a few intimate friends witnessed the ceremony. Promptly at 8:30 o’clock to the strains of the wedding march played by Miss Grace Heck, a cousin of the groom, the young couple pre ceded by the little ribbon bearers. Earl Daddow and Ray Sweetland. brother and cousin of the bride, and escorted by Frances and Leslie Sweet land as bridesmaid and best man. took their places beneath a pretty floral arch with a large white wedding bell suspended therefrom: where the ceremony was performed. After con gratulations dainty refreshments were served and the evening most pleas antly passed. The bride was most becomingly attired in a gown of white chiffon over silk and trimmed with valenciennes lace. The bridesmaid was attired in white crepe-de-cliine. Mr. and Mrs. Lambert are well and favorably known, the bride having bsen born and raised here and the groom lias been employed at the general store of C. W. Conhiser. The presents were many and valuable. The out-of-town guests were Mrs. Ida Lambert. Misses Grace Heck and Ruth Palmer, Merl Weber, Chas. Stockham of Palmer, Mrs. Easterbrook, Wolbach, Messrs. W. H. Baliman, A. L. Bali man and Frank Daddow of St. Paul. The happy couple left the following morning for a few days’ visit at the home of the groom’s mother at Palmer. Seventh Day Adventists who have been holding their thirty-third annual conference at Hastings, authorize the statement that present conditions indicate in the line of prophecy the second coming of Christ. The latest Turkish eruption is the beginning of the end. After all of Europe has been involved in war overTurkey and the infidel has no longer standing room the Kingdom of Christ will be established on earthand the righteous dead will be resurrected. This is the | sincere belief of the Adventists. Mr. Peter Hansen went to Omaha j last Friday to consult a specialist. He has been having much trouble with his nasal organ, presumably caused from catarrhal troubles, the nostrils becoming very sore and fol lowing with a breaking out in small sores. We trust nothing serious may result. Mrs. Hansen accompanied him to visit with friends and rela tives in Council Bluffs and at various points in Iowa and Illinois for some weeks. I he last day of the Old Settlers Reunion at .Tenner's Park last Thurs day was much better attended, both day and evening, than was the first day. and a good time was had. The moving picture show, the merry-go round and the ocean wave each was well patronized and those who attend ed the park attractions were well re paid for their time and money ex pended. While the park was fairly well patronized, especially the last day, it did not receive nearly the patronage it should have had from our town people especially. They go not seem to realize the amount of time and money expended on the park by Mr. .Tenner, hence the patronage is undoubtedly merely nominal what it should be. Another thing. Itseems to us that Loup City interests should guarantee Mr. Jenner enough finan cial recompense on such days to en able him to throw the park open to the general public without any en trance fee being charged. Another tl iog. The failure of a large number of old settlers being present is largely due to the lack of organization of an Old ^ett lers’ Association which should heve been done prior to the days al>ove. Had there been an active organization of old settlers of Sher man county, and Loup City people made up an amount sufficient to recompense Mr. Jenner. and the gates thrown open free to all members of such organization, there would have been hundreds of such present where there were comparatively few. Let there be an Old Settlers’ Organization effected forthwith. Please Pay Up. Those owing us on account are re quested to please remit the same in cash or settle by note immediately, as we need the money in our business. An early settlement will be appreciat ed.
