Las: Saturday evening a wrestling match was held at Society hall, which for whirlwind work has not. before been equalled in this city. A match had been scheduled for that afternoon between Hans Thiesen. the 1 *ane. and Lee Scott of Ansley. who failed to come. A match for the evening was then made between the Dane and Bob Bly. a healthy mat artist from Greeley. There was a preliminary contest between a couple of young scions of the game. Charley May and a young son of Peter Howe, which was decided for May in a tierce little contest in which honors were nearly even. The event of the evening was then on. Bly to throw the Dane twice within sixty minutes, the purse being 60 and 40 per cent. At the call of time, the wrestlers sprang to the center of the mat and for fourteen minutes the mix-up was terrific, not a dull second nor let-up in the cyclonic action of | each, at the end of which Bly man aged to pin the Dane down. The second act was nearly as active, but i lasted only eight minutes, the I>ane being placed in the same position at the close. There was not a moment when it was not a certainty that Bly would best the Dane, but the slippery1 I vanish lad managed to give the big fellow all he wanted so do while he was at it. Bly was 12 pounds heavier two inches taller and a regular giant in strength, hurling the Dane thro' the air. swinging him around by one leg as he would a ball bat. but when the I >ane readied the mat he clever-1 ly evaded being caught, slipped from his grasp and was ready for another aerie! voyage, which lie got repeat edly and with the same result, till a sudden wrench to one of liis legs gave j Bly the advantage and it was only a matter of time when the powerful strength of the Greeley man laid I him low. At the close of the second fall the Greeley artist was not seem ingly winded in the least, while the wily Dane was clearly ready for artificial air. Had Bly been as active as t.ie Dane, with toe advantage of his w underfill strength. Thiesen could not have lasted but a few rushes. Tha- B y is a powerful fellow may be realized when it is know that in a recent wrestling bout it took Gion <>f Aur >ra 25 minutes to throw- him. UV w s; d like to see Bly tackle one j of liis e mils in st rength and science. ‘ T1 Hibson case last week in the joist c art resulted in the verdict i f a it that he was not guilty of libel • : Xightingale, Minshull 'and , He - ' n hy calling them grafteis an i • r>. his attorney insisting jthe 'iidant did not for one ino - err i end -uoh terms to mean as derii - .

' certain citizens, and that ; • e v r of words which has been * ir- d n through the newspapers i •‘1. i* City was ended so far as he • . rind. If this becomes a fact-, 'ill be general rejoicing, and it - will have proved a blessing i’ it stops a controversy and ' iradc that has given Sherman c.n.nt \ an unenviable notorietr thro giiout the length and breadth of the .'tate. So far as the North western iseoneerned.it cut out all part and parcel it may have had in the unpleasant affair over two years since, and does not intend to be pro voked in the future to engage in such disreputable stuff. Now. if the other papers also cut it out. the evil that has been brought on the county in the past by insinuation, innuendo and accusation calculated to ruin the reputatiun of our best citizens will become a thing of the past and to a certain extent he forgotten or rele gated to the rear, while all work in unison for the upbuilding of the county and her entire citizenship. Little Frances Hansel is i|uarati lined at the home of J. T. Hale for scarlet fever. The school rooms have been fumigated and every precaution taken to prevent the spread of the disease. \ s are go to press this morn ing. we learn that there are live or six cases reported and that Miss Sul livan's room, where tl*e fever got Us start, las been closed for the present Attorney Starr contemplates the early building of a residence on his lots just south of E.

Miss Amanda Solms. re cently arrived from Germany, went to Grand Island last Saturday for a visit with relatives. Mrs. Ohlsen re turning Monday. Miss Solms going to North Platte to visit her sister. Mr. and Mrs. W. R. Mellor left Lincoln last Saturday for their three months' trip to Europe, when they will visit all the principal cities and countries of Europe, making the trip leisurely and independent of any party. They expect to be in London at the time Roosevelt is being enter tained. Mr. and Mrs. G. E. Waggoner of Stillwater. Okl., have been here the past week visiting their son. C. O. Waggoner, and family. They will be here for several days yet. and then continue their visit to points in Colorado and California. They ex pect to return here for a further visit after their western sojourn. Stanley Goe wishes us to correct the report that he will open a saloon in this city as reported last week in this paper. Mr. Goe says parties solicited him to go into business with them, but lie had had four years' experience in that business in the past and had enough. Besides he is in the real estate business now and prefers that. The past number of days of con tinued rainy weather, howling winds and bad conditions generally, cul minated Monday night with a heavy frost and freeze, the thermometer dropping to 2o degrees, which proba bly means no fruit wherever such conditions obtain. However. Tues day morning brought sunshine and warmer atmospheric conditions. Rev. W. C. Harper made a trip to Grand Island Monday to consult a specialist and take treatment for throat trouble, which has been ex-: ceedingly troublesome and which has caused him a huskiness and loss of speech several times of iate. He re turned Tuesday evening, but has made arrangements to visit Grand Island every other day for treatment. I>r. Wiison of New York, a former college chum of Rev. I>. W. Mont gomery of the Presbyterian church, accompanied the latter home from the church conference at Gibbon last Friday and that evening spoke to the congregation along church lines, which was most interesting. He left the following morning for Kansas City, where he had an engagement to lecture. Mr. and Mrs. BurtP. McKinnie are in Lincoln visiting their cousins. Misses Martha ami Lida Turner, and with Mrs. H. B. Musser. Both Mr. and Mrs. McKinnie are musicians, and were soloists with the Savage grand opera company a few years ago Mrs. McKinnie was with Madam Sehumann-Heink as the leading so prano of the opera company, during the season a few years ago when iter company presented "Love’s Lottery." —State Journal. April 14. It was suggested yesterday that in junctions be issued against a few of our citizens who were so nervy as to lie seen on the street in their shirt sleeves, the alarm being felt they were unnecessarily running the risk of scaring the weather into a return of the unpleasant conditions of the past week. S. A. Pratt was one of the offenders, and even recklessly proposed to hunt up his old straw hat to show his independence. Later —Sure enough: we told you so. The cyclonic wind and prospective storm this morning is undoubtedly due to the rashness of the aforesaid gentle men. ‘•Who's poisoning the dogs in Loup City by the wholesaler" is a mooted question. Last Friday night the tiend. fiendess. tiends or tiendesses poisoned perhaps a half dozen canines, including Biemond's. Stewart Con ger's and Ike McDonald's four-footed friends, and on the following night continuing their hellish work by putting several more out of com mission. so that it is reported about twenty capines have been made away with. This is the fourth session of the dog poisoner congress here in the past montlis and it seems instead of getting the most worthless curs, the poison has taken the most useful and valuable. It is too bad that the operator could not be discovered and be induced to take at least enough of his ow n medicine to give him some idea of the suffering he is inflicting on dumb brutes. One week ago last Saturdav. the ladies of the Unity Club and others met in Society hall and organized a society to be know n as the “Ladies Aid to the Evergreen Cemetery As sociation," some fortv or fifty of our best women becoming members. Mrs. W. O. Brown was elected presi dent. Mrs. B. T. Snyder vice presi dent. and Mrs. E. B’. Corning secre tary-treasurer. Mrs. J. S. Pedler and Mrs. L. Hansen were made flower committee and the new association presented the committee with $.» to purchase geraniums and bulbs, and a flower bed will be put in the center of the cemetery, with piping from the windmill that the same mav be properly irrigated. This societv is independent of the Unity Club, al thougt£the ladies of.the latter are and will be members of the same and work in unity with it. A cordial in vitation is extended to all ladies of Loup City to become menders of the association, the membership fee to be 50 cents, which will go toward beautifying the cemetery. The annals of Colonial days con tain many tales of the devotion and courage of women, and during the Revolutionary War there were many instances of sacrifices and sufferings The most interesting of these is the well authenticated story of Virginia 1‘reston. a Colonial belle, who. having repulsed the suit of Lord Henry Carle ton. is arrested and imprisoned as a traitor because of her love for an of ficer in Washington's forces. This is the theme of William L. Roberts' '-treat play. “Valley Forge."' which •viil he the offering at the opera house. Saturday.

Her story Is well known n history, but it has never been better told than by William L. Rob erts Jin this one of the greatest war dramas ever written. Anna Cleve land is under the direction of Spof ford & Hun worth, who have sur rounded her with a capable company of artiste. Death of Pioneer.
