Great Rebekah Meeting The third annual meet of the Ee bekah District Assembly No. 32 was held in this city Tuesday and yester day, the work being done in Society hall, followed by a banquet in the lodge room, a great number being pies -.'it from over the district.

Mrs ! Eni na L. Talbot, state secretary , of | Soutli Ouiaiia was present and gave 1 ml • i-.struction Our state sec re ' ai.v is just tne right woman in ttie | rigiit place. Iler splendid tact and j hearty good cheer won the hearts of all. There are times when women, do not care to talk, notwithstanding their reputation to tne contrary, but] Sister Sevilie knows bow to call them up. The address of welcome by Mrs. i das. Conger was splendidly given and reeponded to by Mrs. .lames Landeis I Arcadia in a truly heartfelt man ner. Mrs. Starr of Loup City fur nished excellent music for the even ing. Wednesday morning the trains I brought good delegations from Sar gent. Comstock and Arcadia, and some Bockville members came in on j the afternoon and evening trains. At the afternoon session the district officers for the ensuing year were elected and the state secretary de voted the rest of the afternoon to genera! instruction and it was with reluctance that the members were forced to close the meeting of the afternoon More delegates came from Rockville, and a special train brought another crow d from Sargent, v linstock and Arcadia at 7 o'clock in tiie evening. At the Wednesday night meeting the initiating and fancy drills put on by Sargent and Rockville teams were very beautiful and showed the effect of the hard work done bv them. Past Grand Master Miller was present and ex pressed his good fellowshipand hearty appreciation of the Rebekah lodges in cl. -ice and appropriate language. The meeting closed after installation of the new district officers and all repaired to the banquet hall where a lieautiful repast awaited. It is meet ing-- of tliis kind that make one glad to !*e alive and happier yet that they are Reltekalis. The Wednesday night meeting closed with a beautiful touching duet by Mesdatnes Parks and Stark of Sargent." Sec T M. Reed for Feed Grinders.

A team of horses was drafted into service to bring the delinquent hack to town. We received a pleasant call last Saturday from Mrs. Fred Thode.

The barn of John Frederickson in the east part of Elm township, ad joining the Frank Henrikson farm, was burned last Sunday night with all its contents, including five head of horses, four belonging to Fred erickson and the fine stallion of Andy Widstrand. a lot of grain, several sets of harness and other articles of value.

"The Brownie Band.'1 by Miss Conger's primary department last Friday evening at the opera house, was greeted by a crowd as iarge as is usually given travelling theatrical entertainments, in spite of the fact that at the former rendition of the cantata the opera house was crowded J to its ut most capacity, and many w ho attended the first were present to hear the second, showing substantial appreciation of the splendid work of the little ones, which was fully equal . to the former rendition, in 6pite of j the fact that sickness caused several changes in the characters. The band again did a neat act in rendering several selections before the curtain raised. The hand will never lose by such courtesies.
