T. E. Meoo, one of Cowles' leading
merchants, called on the Chief "Iaat
week.
If no misfortune overtakes the corn
crop of this valley, the present season, it
will be simply immense.
In our hurry flad bustle we forgot to
call attention hut week to tb card of
Jfr. Benfer, in the Chief.
We did not get the paper out as
promptly as common this week, on ac
count of having been crowded with Job
work.
We learn that Mr. Scth Alf cr, liv
ing north-east of Bed Cltud, suffered
severely from the storm, he having al
most his entire crops destroyed.
This week we print just 8G4 copies
of the Chief, more than double the
amber of copies issued by any other
paper in the county in one week.
J. S. Hope, of Kirwia Kansas,
spent a few days ii town last week. He
has sold out his jewelry stock and bought
aa interest in a furniture store at that
plsee.
On account of the large demand for
extra copies of the Chief this week,
we arc compelled to issue half sheets to.
our exchanges and some of our sub
scribers. Dr. A. P. McCulloch who has just
returned from southern Iowa, says that
crops in that section are rather short and
times are, if anything, harder than they
are here.
J. P. Gage. State Secretary of the
Nebraska Sunday School Association,
will deliver a lecture at the Court house
in Red Cloud next Monday June 23d, at
8 o'clock.
The Roberts troupo gave an enter
tainment at the Court House )a6t Tues
day night which was well attended and
appreciated. The Bed Cload Band
furnished music for the occasion.
The State Journal has bur thanks
for a copy of tho life and confession of
Stephen Deo Richards, This book may
be had of the Journal Co., for only 25
cents Usual discount to tho trade.
N. G. Liddy has tho handsomest
advertisement in the Chief, and while
he makes no pretentions towards being
tho handsomest man in town, so long as
the Chief editor is around, he always
icepsa handsome stock of goods which
his handsome (?) clerks will sell yon at
bottom prices.
--Kead the new advertisement of
Perkins & Mitchell, in this issue of the
Chief. They have not been in business I
in Red Cloud fer any great length of
timo, but they have already, established
a reputation for squaro dialing and a
good quality of goods. Try then once
and bo convinced.
We was a little premature in our
statement last week. that. B. S. Kaley
had erected a telephone contacting his
ofioe with" his house, The wire gave
out aid oaly reached as far as the Chief
editors htuie, where it was anchored for
the purpose of testing its practical work
ings. Itcaaaot be considered a perfect

Now we hare eaaclarire proof 'that

Wn confess that we are somewhat
surprised at the -Argju announcing , mnder

Cloud was damaged by the late storm to
the extent of $40,000. We weald have
given Bro. Kenney credit for better
judgment than that Men of the eoiad

more than cover alldamafa that the

SEED BUCKWHEAT.
Miner Bros., have on hand and for
sale, a choice lot of buckwheat for
seed.
The Rev. Jacob B. Potter objects
to being called an old ass, and thmki
that the Chief is immoral; verily, for a
common blackguard, a lecherous old
Beecher-on a small-scale te preach mor
als, reminds us of "iSatan rebuking
Sin." ;The Rev(?) Jacob B. Potter
trios to shift the responsibility of his
falshoods onto the shoulders of 'some one
eise, and calls into question the word of
a gentleman whom all who know the
parties would believe, before they would
the preacher under oath, even though
he swere it on the bible which be pro
fesses to believe, and in the name of the
Christianity which he prostitutes.
A school house was struck by lighten
ing near Lincoln, duriog a storm last
week, and a young lady, Miss Babcock,
killed. Several others in the house at
the time were badly injured.
The initial number of the Naponee
Banner, published at Naponee, Frank
lin county,- is at hand. It is a neat little
six column paper edited and published
by Wm. A. Connell, the itinerant
editor." Success to you in your new
enterprise, Bro. Connell.
As was expected, the eastern papers
have dilated upon our late storm, they
havo exaggerated, prevaricated and mis
represented the facta, (assisted by that
visionary eonocriT of tl?e south end of
Red Cloud, of which we had reason to
expect better things) until hardly a vis
toge of the truth remains. Instead of
the damage to property in Red Cloud,
by tho 6torm, reaching $40,000 as stated
by an excited editor in Red Cloud Inst
week, it trill not reach $.10,000 all told.
Tbe present Season has" been praliffic
of storms throughout the entire territory
of the United States. Within tho Jast
six weeks there has been some of tho
most frightful tornadoes that ever visited
any country, and in some instances the
loss of life and property has been terri
ble. Those who think that this section
of country has been specially unfortu
nate should know that the reverse is the
case, for while we have been visiteQ with
a cyclone that did considerablo damage
to properly, other sections, less fortu
nate, have been devastated by storms
fearfully destrustive to human life.
Among these we might mention the re
cent storm in Kansas, in which over
fifty persons lost their lives. The late
storm at Dubuque Iowa, in which hcveral
persons were killed. The fearful cyclone
at Augusta Georgia. The terrible wind
and hail storm at Bordcrtown. N. J.
The violent storm at Trenton, all within
the last few days.

Maple Grove Farm.
Webster Co., Neb., June 14th, 1879.
Ed. Chief. The crops are looking
very well considering the dry weather
and chintz bugs. Tho chintz bugs are
working on the small grain some and arc
working in our garden. They have de
stroyed some of our radishes and lettuce.
We are needing a good rain now, al
though wc had a nico little rain Tuesday
evening, also on Thursday morning we
had a nice shower and a good little show
er on Friday, but on Tuesday some hail
fell doing 'no great damage. The frost
on the 1st and 2d, done some little dam
age to corn and garden vegetables.
Corn is growing 'fine and generally is a
very good stand without replanting.
Rye and Barley will do to harvest in
about two weeks if we have pleuty of
rain, and if not it will be ripe sooner.
Well tbe big thow came and went and
with it a great deal of excitement and
fun. I went to see the big show and
like all othera.that went to see it I was
sold, it was about as complete a failure
as I ever seen ia the. show bo-ines, but
T Mt 4a4
1 have discovered one thing, thoso thct
do a great deal of blowing and big ad
vertising, arc the ones that take in the
mighty dollar.-.
There was quite a wind storm con
nected with the rain on Tuesday eve
ning doing no serious damage except it
blew the roof off Charley Wickwires
new stone house. This was bad for
Charley, for as things looks wo have
come to the conclusion that Charlet was
about to make one more desperate effort
to procure him a companion for life, but
no doubt he will have to put tho roof on
the cago before ho gets the "bird."
We syuipathfco with Charley in hi.
misfortune, but it must certainly been
fun to see him roll under the bed for
protection when the roof went off his
