City is to have a bird man as its own
part of tiie aerial navigation armv.
Milford is a nervy lad and has no
fears as to accidents and says it is as
safe and safer than many otiier lines
of adventure. Our people will watch
his progress witli much interest and
trust lie may be a prominent and
successful aeronaut.

from his seat on the disc, he alleging
the horses and disc all ran over him.
: which would seem impassible without
j death resulting, unless in the mad

; was hadly mussed up. but later was
able to get around, showing none the

The Northwestern his printed in
vitations for the nuptials Sunday.
May 5th. of two popular young people
of the west side of the county, but
who preferred no notice published of
their approaching happiness till after
the joyous event, hence until next
week we neither mention names nor
place nor particulars, but let our
readers query among themselves.
A card received from Ward Ver
Valin from Mitchell, S. D.. Monday,
tells us to change his ildteee back to
Loup City and that he. aud h s
family too. we suppose. will reach
Loup City this week Saturday even
ing over the R. & M. That's good
news to tiie many friends of iliat
estimable family.
invitations were printed at litis
office a few days since for tlie ap
proaching nuptia-s of Mr. Oscar l..
Swanson, our popular young druggist,
and Miss Etta M. Lofholm. which
occurs from the home of the bride’s
parents. Mr. and Mrs. John Lofholm,
next Tuesday evening. May 7th. at 8
o’clock. Miss Lofholm was for some
seven years an attache of the North
western. and one of the most efficient
and painstaking helpers any news
paper ever had on its force. The
Northwestern extends its pre-nuptial
congratulations and best wishes for
their long, happy and prosperous mar
ried life.
Last wees we spoke of our young
friend. Rev. Ray Kearns, and his call
to a Presbyterian church in Idaho.
Later. l>r. Kearns lias received a let
ter from Ray saying that owing to a
strong pressure being brought to bear
upon him by the Presbyterian people
w here he is going te school in Chica
go. lie lias been released by the Idaho
church and will have the pastorale
of the Sedgwick Street church in
that city, near the seminary, he hav
ing accepted the call and will remain
in that city. The people of Loup
City, who with one accord are proud
of Ray as a Loup City product, will
follow him with beet of wishes for
his success
A pood story Is told us of & section
boss on the R. & M.. who had been
employed on the road at Broken Bow
for some twenty years, and whe had
made a most satisfactory record In
almost every particular. However,
in o.ie thing he had been peculiarly
unfortunate. During his later vean
lie had lost two hand cars, destroyed
by trains, which proved bipeer and
stronger than his dinky car. Upon
the destruction of the second, he was
informed by the authorities that In
case he lost a third one he should
call for his time. Some two weeks
latter, a big engine crashed into the
third and demolished it, whereupon
the section boss, whom we will call
Murphy, for the sake of giving him a
name, sent the following poetical
effusion into headquarters:
Praise God from whom all blessings
[flow
Another handcar gone below;
Send my time check to Broken Bow.
It is useless to add that the B. &
M. could not spare such a poetical
genius, and he still holds hts job.
