The Episcopalians will soon build a church in Red Cloud, we are informed. The Red Cloud boys were beaten by the Hastings base ball club last Thurs day. A number of our citizens are in at- f tendance at the state fair at Omaha this week. Anyone having a good pony to trade will please call nt the Chief office and be swindled. The Red Cloud public schools open ed lust Monday under the supervision of Prof. Funk. Mr. C. C. Coon brought to our office last Saturday a watermelon that weigh ed 32 pounds. There has been several light frosts already, in this vicinity, but as yet no damage has been done. Eld. Theo. Johnson will preach at the court house next Sunday night, by the favor of Eld. Yeiscr. Mr. Tulleys of Ohio, who has been visiting relatives at this place for some time, returned home last Monday. As the democrats have no paper in tills county devoted to their interests, wc cheerfully give space to their calls. "We call the attention of our demo cratic friends to the call in another column for a democratic county con vention. We have received Vol. 1 No. 1 of the Chester Clipjxr. It's a clipper. The printing is done at the Sentinel office in Hebron. Mr. I. G. Douglass and Mr. L. D. Hinman living north of town, came in last Saturday and each subscribed for the Chief. A pony sold at the auction last Satur day for the munificent sum of 75 cents. If we are any judge of horseflesh it was dear at that. Last week we saw a good natured and "mellow" democrat on the street who was hurrahing for Hanfield and (hie) Garcock. "Curly" Burris, an old time employe of the Chief, and now holding cases on the Burr Oak (Kan.) Reveille, paid Red Cloud a short visit recently. M. E. Church Sept 26th, S. S, at 10 A. M. Preaching by the pastor at 11 A. m., and by Rev. J M. Pryse at 7 :30 p. m. Prayer meeting every Thursday evening. Mr. McMinn and others have shown us samples of corn grown this season that does not look as though the drought had materially effected that crop this year. Are you going to prove up on your claim? If so you will do well to call at the Chief office and learn something to your advantage. Hyou want good job printing done it will pay you to call at the Chief office, which is the only office in the valley that makes any pretentions to wards colored work. Thirty women of ill-repute were hauled up before the Justices of Lin coln last week to answer to the charge of vagranc ybr having no "visible means of support." Owing to the fact that one half of our local page was unexpectedly ap propriated by Messrs. Besley A Per kins, this week, several local notices and communications are left out. An exchange says that the court haTe decided that "stalk can run at large on uncultivated lands if the same is not enclosed with a lawful fence." Just so, and a cultivated hedgerow two rods wide is a lawful fence in Nebraska. A woman drove into Hehrnn ihn other day in a buggy, stopped the team ia the street, jumped out and- captured a dog which site placed in the buggy, and jumping in herself she seized the lima and drove rapidly off with tke prite. We wish 10,000 women would -visit Bed Cloud on the same errand this week and each oae be as anacaai' ful in carrying of a dog as that woman was, it would thin out the dogs a little but there would yet be plenty left Live aosji ara worth from JJ0 to 4J0.

There will be a meeting of the stock holders of the Red ClotNtGrain Eleva tor Amociation at the banking house of Smith Bros , &. Thompson, Fri day September l4, 180, at 8 o'clock, to transact important business. J. L. Miller, President. We have on two or three occasions received from different parties an in vitation to vifeit the thriving little town of Amboy and write it up. Thin, friends, we would like to do, and we will call on you at our earliest con venience. It is quite probable that Webster county will furnish a democratic candi date for senatorial honors, who will lo his level best to make it interesting for Mr. Coon, of Thayer county, the re publican nominee, at the election next November. Some people sacm to think that there will be a great deal of land lie idle in this county next year. It may be the case but we don't believe it will, wc have already had two or three applica tions from parties who want to rent our farm next year. Mr. W. A. Beck, living up in Inavale precinct lost one of his horses recently and believed it had been stolen, as in dications pointed that way. He ac cordingly came to town and had an ac curate description of the horse printed on some postal cards at the Chief office, which were sent out in all direc tions. The result was gratifying, the thief was caught in Nuckolls Co., a few hours after the postal card conveyed the description to that county, and Mr. Beck recovered his property. Mark Twain in his new book, "A Tramp Abroad," uses the following sensible words in speaking of cheap church bells: "We build our churches almost without regard to cost; wo rear an edifice which is an adomement to the town, and we gild it, and fresco it, and mortgage it, and do everything we can think of to perfect it, and then spoil it all by putting a bell on it which afflicts everybody who hears it, giving some the headache, others St. Vitus's dance, ami the rest the blind staggers. Mr. W. A. McKcighan addressed a large audience at the court house last Saturday night on the post and present political questions. His address was very good, and showed considerable thought ana research. Mr. McKcighan is evidently blessed with a retentive memory, if not a sound mind. The main effort of the speaker seemed to be to show why Mr. Garfield should hot be elected president this fall. As Mr. McKeighan is a Grccnbacker, and as the "fiat" bubble has long since faded into the misty past, we will not con tradict any of the numerous assertions made by him which are not supported by the proofs. Greenbackers are not supposed to be responsible for what they say, anyway. tfsws From Up and Sown the Valley. Potatoes are worth $1.00 per bushel at Arapahoe, The fair in Nuckolls county com menced last Monday. The mill at Franklin, Franklin county is kept running day and night. The Sentinel published at Orleans, Harlan Co., under its new manage ment is democratic. Six hundred head of cattle passed through Orleans, Harlan Co. says the Sentinel, on their way to Iowa, where they will be fed. Cattle men in western Kansas and eastern Colorado are petitioning Con gress to make the 100th Meridian a limit for settlement. I appears to be a settled fact that the Republican river will soon be bridged on the county line south of Hardy. This will be a good speel for Hardy. The stock shipments from the west are increasing. Since the last issue of the Pioneer about 175 cars of cattle have been shipped east over the B. & M., and still there's more to follow. Each car represents 22 head. Arapahoe Pioneer, "Mr. and Mrs. Ricker, living on Far mers creek, are the happy parents of a bouncing pair of twins a boy and girl, which came to their house last Monday morning; weight about 16 pounds. The father still lives, and the mother and children are doing well. Riverton Eagle, Zeb. Stout, of Gosper county, is not discouraged with Nebraska, but says a man who will work can make more farming in Nebraska than any other state in the union. While unloading a fine 16-pound watermelon at this office he enumerated about his fine crop of millet, corn and hay, and also says if warm weather continues he will yet reap a goodly harvest of wheat. Pioneer. The Republican Valley Editorial Association met at the Sentid office in Orleans on the evening of the 15t inst, and adopted a constitution and is now on solid footing. By resolution the constitution is to be printed in the Indianola Courier. The present officers hold over till the annual meeting in i Jorry next, to which time the association adjourned subject however to the call of our worthy President G. S. Bishop. On Friday night of last week a quar rel arose between John Voltx and Burt Armstrong, two saloon keepers. Voltx seized a mallet and beat Armstrong over the head, and would aaosV likely have killed him, hut for the timely in terference of John Cuff, who succeeded in separating the antagonists. We are of the opinion they should have been left k their fate, as they both had medicine. and. the community-would be better off; without their business. I Superior Guide VOTKZ. Having become tired of doing the work of two or three men, and believ inghat our bacine has suffered more or lets, became we could not attend properly to all the different branches' of the same; and believing further that close collections arc essential to suc cess in any businm,wc have concinded to take into our employ a man whoe duty will be to attend to the collection of outstanding accounts due the office.
