Invitations are out for the marriage | on the 23d of this month of Miss Inez Fries and ‘ Farmer” Lewin, j the base ball player, both of Arcadia. Miss Fries is the daughter of Senator Fries, and taught in our public schools two years since. Dr. Longacre hands us a copy of the Manilla (P. I.) Times, a weekly ; newspaper of magazine shape, the product of an old Omaha boy, Geo. Seiner, who is the pioneer newspaper man of the Phillipine Islands. It Is said Mr. Seiner lias made a mint of money out of its publication and can show his prosperity to the extent of a couple of hundreds of thousands of dollars as a result. That’s pretty good and comes nearly up to the average Nebraska country newspaper man's bank account. Anyway, the magazine-newspaper is an up-to-date publication and shows prosperity on its face. The many friends of Will Odendahl, Jr., will regret that his newspaper venture at Cortez, Colo., cost him a little bunch of money, for which he received a bunch of experience in return. He purchased an interest from the ostensible owner, failing to take necessary papers in regard to the deal, and it turned out the ostensible owner himself had purchased the paper on wind, which failed to satis fy the owner in fee simple of the plant, who took it back and Will having nothing to show for his money received an undesirable lemon. It's too bad, but may prove a valu able lesson in the school of experience for our young friend. We understand at present Will and his wife are in Denver, where he is employed in a garage. Mr. Ray Lutz of Arcadia is another new reader of the Northwestern. Y. C. Browning starts right by becoming a reader of the North western this week.

A number of the young lady friends | of Miss Bertha Mead met at the I home of Miss Esther Musser yester | day afternoon and gave a farewell party to that lady on the eve of her j departure for her future home at Fallon, Nevada. A most pleasant time is reported. The Misses Georgia and Minnie (louley arrived from York Monday■. evening and are visiting with their uncle, Mr. Alex Bail lie. in Washing- i ton township for a week, when they j will go to Seattle, Wash., where their parents, Mr. and Mrs. .las. tiouley,! have purchased a home ana will permanently reside. Postmaster Grow yesterday sent us a postcard from Lincoln showing a] healthy German clasping lovingly in each arm a big bottle of milk, with “Veil,it is all you can get in Lincoln.’-1 And Dar says, “This is the way we ! are tixed: big crowd: Big Sixth beats j them all ” We’ll wager our jolly Nasby is having a good time, alle samee. II. I). Hendrickson was made happy j Tuesday evening by the arrival from i’oint Richmond, Calif., of ids good mother, Mrs. Elizabeth Hendrickson, who has been several months there for the benetit of her health, and was accompanied home by her daughter, Mrs. Mabel Lane, with whom she was visiting, and who will make an extended sojourn among relatives here. The interesting news reached here last evening that a baby girl was born Sunday, June 6th, to Mr. and Mrs. Newton 1’ilger at Butte. Mont. As this is the first time he has been made grandpa, T. L. l’ilger may l>e i excused for the extra happy smile he wears at present.

Owens was engaged in cleaning and re-papering her old residence, J formerly occupied by the cigar fac-1 tory, she was suddenly attacked by a I fainting spell, and fell in an uncon scious state receiving ty contact with , a step ladder from which she had just descended severe bruises and contusions. She was unconscious for a time, but no serious consequences resulted, Mrs. Owens has had more or less trouble with her head of late and it is thought the pain became so I intense that she fell in an unconscious state. 'Die report that she fell from j the ladder was incorrect, as she re-1 members having descended from the same before the fainting spell. The j many friends of the lady will be: pleased no more serious accident j resulted. Fine Sweet Potato Plants for sale. #2 per 1000, not prepaid. | 30c per 100 postpaid by mail.

The Pacific Coast country, in the development of its marvelons civilization, solicits you to journey through that land. The melting snow of the mountains is a magical resource, shaped to ihe genius of electircal and horticultural wizards; those mighty forests that are the last of their kind left standing in this country; there are no such orchards, orange groves or floral landscapes in the world—nor have there ever been. On a tour of the Coast you pass through an empire, where the romance of the Spanish past has been merged v\ith tuc human activities of the new West. See your own country; see the with its fast grow ing wealth, population and intv..,, ;nab:e cities, and learn what a future it may offer to your sous; this five thousand mile journey is a broad education. 1909 offers much to tempt you.
