I»r. Longacre and Banker Carlsen
started for Broken Bow this morning
in the former s auto to attend the

they got in the edge of town the car

clogged and they had to return to I
get a fresh start.
Mrs. Felix Makowski returned last
Thursday from Omaha with her little
daughter. Tillie. where she had taken
the latter in hopes of restoring her
hearing, and with bitter disappoint
ment. as the specialist claimed the
fever with which she suffered dur
ing tier recent illness had destroyed
the nerves of hearing, and nothing
could be done for her.
The game betw een the high schools I
of Arcadia and LoupCitv at Jenner's
Park last Friday proved very disas
trous for the visitors, the score being
against them to tlte tune of 12 to 5.
There was a big bunch of Arcadians
down from that little suburban vil
lage rooting for their bovs. but could
not save them from going down toj
defeat Iiefore the locals.
While the Pythian grand lodge was
granting the highest gift in its power
to a Loup City man. John W. Long,
the Pythian sisters, not to be left in
the shadow, elected a Loup City sis
ter to one of the biggest grand offices
in its gift, that of General Manager,
to Mrs. Frances B. Outhouse. With
two grand officers of Pythianism cor
ralled. Loup City is more than ever
on the map in Nebraska.
i ne grand lodge a. u. t . w. at
Lincoln last week failed to follow the
good example of the Pythians and
their sisters by electing a Loup City
man to a grand lodge office. Had we
known they were going to be so lack
ing in good taste we should have gone
down to the state capital and saw
that Taylor Gibson was properly
decorated, so that Loup City could
have been the whole show, instead of
two-thirds.
Dr. W. L. Marcy left last Friday
morning for Sterling. Ills., on receipt
of a telegram giving the sad news of
the dangerous illness of his mother
in that city, and that she was failing
rapidly. The visit here of Mrs.
Marcy some two years' since will be
remembered by many who met the
dear mother and were pleased to call
her friend. We trust the doctor's
worst fears may not be realized and
that she may be spared for many
years yet.
Two Sherman county young couples
went to Grand Island yesterday to

Larsen of Austin being the other
happy pair. Tho two ladies are sis

Editor and Mrs B. K. Schaeffer of
Curtis. Neb., arrived last Friday
evening for an over Sunday visit
with her parents. Mr. and Mrs. T. A.
Taylor, leaving for tyome Monday.
Bro. Schaeffer is the editor of the
Curtis Enterprise and a very pleas
ant and companionable gentleman
and made this office a fraternal and
very welcome visit Saturday. They
had been to Lincoln, wliere Mr.
Schaeffer w as a delegate to the grand
lodge A. O. C. W., while Mrs. Schaef
fer was a delegate to the grand chap
ter O E. S.. and concluded to make
a vis't to' Loud City before going
home.
Last Sunday evening a bunch of
Arcadia young fellows wlu> had been
[down to Ashton to a ball game, en
gaged in a rough house exhibition
at t he B. & M. depot, on their re
turn. breaking a couple of windows,
maltreated each others' countenances
in the melee, and caused people in
the vicinity of the depot to believe
a iot of burglars were breaking into
the sacred premises. Later Agent
Danielson took the matter in hand
and Tuesday the young fellows sent
down by mail a few dollars to pav
the sheriff's costs in the matter and
the damage to tire depot. A long
story could be made out of this, not
calculated to reflect much credit
upon the young bloods, but will be
let go this time in the hope that it
will be the last escapade of the kind
They can thank the kindness of Mr.
Danielson that an example was not
made of them and thev were let off
so dead easy.
Magnificent Display
Everyone turns out to see a circus
parade, and the crowds that gather
to watch the grand spectacular parade
given by the Campbell Brothers Big
Consolidated Shows when they exhibit
in Loup City on Tuesday May 23 will
witness one that is unexcelled any
where today. Horses are always a lead
ing feature with every circus, and
Campbell Brothers have spent years
in raising and training theirhundreds
and hundreds of fine horses that are
exhibited both in the free street
parade, and in various ways under the
big top. The horses are attractive,
but we must not fait to mention their
riders: of really beautiful women, gsi
ly and magnificently costumed and all
exhibitingdifferent feats of horseman
ship and daring. Then, there are th •
almost ungovernable horses and bron
chos that are mounted bycowboys.and
the troop of Russian Cossacks, whose
services CampbeWB rot hers have sec
ured direct from the Steppsof Russia,
at enormous expenses, and who are fa
mous the world over for performing
the most wonderful and reckless fea
ts on horseback with their horses go
ing at full speed. Dontfailtoseethem:
also many other features too numer
ous to mention that are always a part
of every circus, asgroups of beautiful
women posed as various characters on
the huge glittering wagons, bands of'
music and clowns, to say nothing of j
the valuable menagerie that is carri
ed with these shows.
