COUNTY FAIR ASSOCIATION Does Llittle Besides Adopting Constitution and By-laws At the adjourned meeting of the County Fair Association last Saturday afternoon, barely enough could be herded in Society Hall to make a quorum, very few farmers being in town, so busy were they putting up alfalfa and rushing farm work of all kinds. The main work of the meet ing was the adoption of the constitu tion and by-laws, which was com pleted with some minor changes from the regular committee report. The main changes were in the boaTd of managers which was changed to seven members, including the president, secretary and treasurer, and the sec retary substituted for president, as the proper one to submit reports of the association’s doings to the secre tary of the State Fair. The meeting took a recess till two weeks from that date, June 21, and urgent request made for a full turnout.

Card of Thanks We wish to thank most sincerely the kind friends who were so sympathetic and helpful during the illness and death of our son, husband, father and brother, and especially do we thank the members of the Masonic lodges of A rcadia and Loop City, and the East ern Star, the A.O.C.W. and Degree of Honor lodges of Loup City and the Rebekah lodge of Arcadia for the kindness shown us and the beautiful flowers sent us in respectful memory of our departed loved one. Calvin Landers, Mrs. Jane Landers, Mrs. Nina Sorensen, Mrs. Maude Cooper, " Mrs. Belle Wall, Mrs. Alice Round, Odd Fellows Hold Memorial Services Last Sunday afternoon at 2 o’clock I the Odd Fellow and Rebekah lodges of this city held their annual mem orial services in their society hall. The rjom was beautifully decorated with bunting, mottoes and flowers and presented a most charming ap pearance. Owing to the lack of room, the general public could not be in vited, the hall being only sufficiently large to accommodate the members of the two orders and their families, which tilled the seating capacity. The program began with music by our silver cornet band, followed by the National anthem, “Ameiica,” given by the audience. Prayer by Dr. Leeper was followed by a sweet solo from Mrs. T. R. Lay and a choice and well spoken recitation by Mrs. J. W. Conger. A quartet, composed of Mrs. J. W. Conger, Miss Nettie Conger, A. T. Conger and R. II. Mathews then rendered the taking song, “Going Down the Valley,” followed by a comet solo by R. N. Pritchard. Then came the address of the occasion by Dr. Leeper, the subject being “From Jerulasem to .Jericho,” which was the finest we have ever heard, occupying some fifty minutes' time, with not a dull moment from the begriming to the closing of the theme and reflected great credit on the speaker, and car rying with it the closest attention of the members of the great order. At the close of the address, the band rendered another splendid selection, followed by one of the most touching, spectacular and well gotten up tableaus ever given in our city. The scene represented a grave, profusely covered with flowers, at which a little girl, Bessie Conger, kneeled with clasped hands, frequently raised toward heaven, while the quartet, named above, sang “Why Did They Dig Pa's Grave So Deep?”, the scene and sentiment of the song causing deep feeling with all present. The congregation sang, “God Be With You Till We Meet Again,” which closed the program at the hall, after which all repaired to the cemetery, where after music by the band the graves bt* departed members were strewn with flowers, benediction was given and the day passed into history as one of the most memorable in the liistory of the local order. Creek Meets Creek To the Tune of $104 Last Saturday afternoon was oc cupied at county judge headquarters in the hearing of the Greek mixup which occurred down near Hazard last week, as mentioned in our col umns last issue, resulting in one be ing here on trial charged with deadly assault, his victim being taken to a hospital in Grand Island in bad shape, and with probabilities he would die. There were about a dozen Greeks here as witnesses, only two of whom could master any English. However, before the hour of trial, word came from Grand Island that the injured son of Greece was getting along nicely and no serious results were liable to en sue, arid after consultation, and wish ing to save useless expense to the county and probably useless expense in the future, Judge Wall for the de fense and County Attorney Pedler agreed that upon the defendant plead ing guilty to the minor charge of as sault and paying a fine and total costs of the case, amounting in round numbers to the sum of 1104, which was assessed by his honor, Judge Smith, the case would be dropped and defendant discharged, which wasdone. The history of the trouble was very simple. Defendant and the man he assaulted were working together on the B. & M. near Hazard, when de fendant jocularly referred to the other fellow's shoes, at which offense was taken, a rotf followed, one using a shovel and the other a spike maul, with the result that the mafcil in the hands of defendant was the best weapon of the two and the cranium of the injured Greek met it head on arid went to the hospital for repairs. From all the evidence, it appears it was just a case of a fight between the two men, as a thousand and one other fusses and fights are pulled off and both men were to blame.

Opening Day Was Gala Time At Park The opening day-at Jenner's Park Tuesday was everything that could be wished, the weather man being on his best behavior and furnishing the very finest brand lie could dish up. The atmosphere was just cool enough in the morning and even throughout the dav to make out-of-doors the most pleasurable for all mankind. Early morning trains came loaded with humanity from neighboring towns, while others not connected by rail sent in autos and teams loaded down with happy people bent on having a joyous day’s outing. All natureseem ed to play into the hands of the Jenner boys and the park was filled from morn till night and even till late hours with a great throng of people. All forms of amusement in the park, the cages of animals, the inviting green swards, the number less curios in the paviilion, the ball park, each had their devotees, and no one seemed to have a dull moment to spare. Among the principal events in the park afternoon and evening, were the lecture* and great showing of strength of our big wrestler, Warren Miller, and the lariet work of our expert young friend,Burt Kay, both of which were fine and called forth exclamations of astonishment and satisfaction. The event at the ball park, whicti is given elsewhere in these columns, claimed a big crowd in the afternoon and was most excit ing. The lighting of the park by electricity caused larger crowds in the evening than usual, and the pavilion was filled with merry dancers during the evening and till long after the midnight hour. The day was made especially pleasurable by the splendid music furnished by our Sliver Cornet Band which certainly did itself proud and was on the job in the best of shape. Nlrs. J. W. Jones Badly Injured. Last Sunday, as Dr. and Mrs. J. W. Jones were driving up the valley to the home of their son. Hempel Jones, and when near the Stehgerfarm. they were met by an auto driven by Mr. Lonnie Jenkins of Arcadia in a narrow passageway on the road, the horse shying up on a bank, overturning the buggy, running away, kicking and smashing the vehicle, throwing them out, Mrs. Jones receiving severe in juries, from which she is now suffer ing and being too badly hurt to be brought back to the city. She is in great pain and seems to be injured about the back, spine and hips, so much so that she can not bear being ing touched or handled. It isclaimed the auto failed to give sufficient room for the buggy to pass without running up on the bank, causing the accident above. It was hoped she might be so far recovered as to be brought to her home in this city today. Fall Down Cellar Breaks Finger While going down the cellar stairs at the Frederick. Monday, Miss Ernes tine Odendalil missed her footing and fell from top to basement floor, break ing one linger and vadly spraining the hand. Just how the misstep oc curred and cause for same is not de termined. However, the young lady fortunately incurred no further in juries save a severe jar to the body. Face Bruised by Fall on Ginders Mr. Jake Synak, section foreman for the Burlington here, received a severe fall in the yards, Monday of this week, badly bruising him about the face. A misstep caused him to fall heavily on his face, with no chance to even partially break the fall. Dr. Main dressed the injuries which, will only prove painful and not serious. HI.

First Trust Co., Loup City. Nob. First Trust Company Loup City, Nebraska C. BRADLEY. President E. A. MINER. Secretary Al. F. MASON. Vice President C. C. CARLSEN, Treasurer On the new railroad just completed from Kearney to Stapleton in Logan County, Nebraska, we have a very desirable stock and grain ui m of 11 Jo acres for only $25 an acre, and to responsible parties with plenty of help, easy terms of sale will be given or a small farm, priced right, might be accepted as part payment. It consists of a very fine table land, with deep black soil, clay subsoil, under cultiva tion, fine, level, black sandy loam valley, alfalfa land, and rolling pasture land, deep black soil, clay subsoil, the table land is in one body, the alfalfa land is in one body and the pasture land in one body or tracticall.v so and this adjoins the building. An abundance of pure cold, soft water is supplied by two wells, windmills and pumps, one being in the pasture and the other convenient to the buildings,good cis tern, a comfortable house of five rooms; very fair barn with hay loft and some other small buildings: considerable fence, two nice groves, one north of the feed yards, the other on the valley. It is very con - venient to school, about five miles over good roads to one railroad station and 7 to 9 miles to 3 other towns, one being the county seat. It is surrounded by good farms, many of which are well improved and grow splendid corn, fall wheat and alfalfa. No better* potatoes grow anywhere. This is a desirable home farm upon which to grow grain of all kinds and alfalfa; to raise cattle or any kind of farm stock and fatten them for market; and is just as sure to be worth $50 an acre in a short time, as anything can possibly be. Up to the time this railroad was built, these lands were from 30 to 40 miles from maaket. On this account development was held back,but as a judge of land, .\ ou will see at a glance that this farm is worth your serious consideration as a buyer, and should especially appeal to you if you bare grown boys or want to get more acres for the purpose of secur ing the rapid advance in value, which is sure to come. We know th; t people able to buy this farm do not want to chase shaddows or buy blue sky. We have no time to waste in showing it to people who do not mean business or can not buy if it suited them and is as represento “d. but we will be pleased to devote all the time necessary to show it thoroughly to people really meaning business and who can and will bu; it the farm is as we describe it, and well be more than pleased to furnish any desired information. Do not be afraid to ask questions. I I THE HOME OfI i * m j | Quality Groceries | > Come Civs i > tri al!
