Scott Elliott, of tbe recently de funct Riverton Eaylr. has gone to Gitenwood, Cais Co., with the inten tion starting new paper. E. A. Van Dyke has returned to lu old home in Iowa, and order the Chief to visit nim weekly that he may know how his old neighbors and friends are prospering. The Ladies Sewing Society, of the Grace Church, will meet this (Thurs day) afternoon at the residence of Mrs. Ed. Perkins. All interested in the Fair will please attend. The editor of this paper was absent from his por-t of duty for several days this week which is our excuse for a small amount of local mutter. Hope our readers will excuse us this time. S. McMinn, an old resident of thi? county started with his family to Pennslyvania laj-t Monday where he will make his home for a while at lea-t. The Chief will visit him regu larly in his new home and keep him posted in Webster county n flairs. Since our last issue we have had the pleasure of spending a day or two under the parental roof-tree in Iowa. To say that wc enjoyed the visit would but faintly express our feeling. We are only sorry that our visits muf-t be like those of the angels, few and far between. It will now be in order for the street commissioner, if there is any, and if not, the road supervisor or some one else to see to the filling up of that unsightly and dangerous hole where Uncle Sam's Scales stood, or 8ome dark night somebody will fall in there and get hurt. Mr. Win. Shoop skipped out leav ing this office in the lurch $6.75. We are about as much to blame, however, as William is, for we had a chance to get our money out of him last spring but let him off on the plea that he wanted to buy seed wheat with the money. We simply mention this 'circumstance to show that with a certain class of men there is no such a thing as gratitude, and he who ac commodates them (without good security) is sure to get left. Our small sonlcd and grasping temporary of the south end gave last week to a hojvl of about a con vent half column's length because the county commissioners ordered the notice for bids for rebuilding the Inavale bridge published in the Lincoln Journal and the Red Cloud Chief. The reason the commissioners did this is obvious they wanted the public to know that they desired bids for the work. Had thev desired that it should re mam a profound secret to everybody except a few persons in and around Red Cloud, they would have had thej notice published in the Aryan alone. The amount that we will realize from the publication of the notice will reach the enormous sum of three or four dollars, which amount we will cover into the treasury of the "official organ of the county" rather than see Mr. Kenney have a spell of sickness over loosing that amount of public printing. While wc have no desire to answer any insinuations thrown out by the gricver over the loss of $3 of public printing; wc .will say that during the eight years that the Chief has been in existence in Webster county it has done more towards ad vertising abroad and building up Red Cloud and Wcnster county than would be possible for the rcaderless ,concern at the'south end to accom plish in a.quartcr of a century.

A Ttw PartleHirx f kit Wearied by the care of official life and the hariasewenU of the atruggle over tne .New lork ptoiuttueuL, i rtaiuenl Garfield had fur ek U:n looking forward to a trip through New England in which he oucc nion: to revi-tt tbe fcene of hi chil arUu tudies and taks a neisdt-d rct amid the Berkshire hill, in ouc of the must bcauti'til valleys of ilai ciiuettA. At ) o'clock on the morn ing of Saturday July lid, acroxuj.anicd by Secretary Blaine, he entered a carriage at the white bouse and drove towards the Baltimore fc I'oUmiac defotf where he was tu Like tbe 'J 2!) train to Long Branch. During the lriire the president conven-ed in a hatijiy tone over his release from othctal caret and .-jioke in a hopeful manner over the prospects of a recon ciliation between two wings of the repubheun party. The carnage drove tijj to the door of the depot at twenty minutes at 'J ami the president anil Secretary Blaine alighted. Entering the depotjiy the main entrance and walking side by sidr, juisaed into tbe ladies recejitton room and walked toward the door leading out to the platform, wherea special train stood in waiting. As the president entered the B ftrcct dunr a man of small statue walked toward him, and ral-iug his arm, tired a shot at him from u re volver of the English bulldog pattern, General Garfield, not noticing the shot, walked on toward the door, when a second report was heard anil the president lay prostrate on the floor with an ugly" wound in his back from which the blood flowed profuse ly. The sound of two pistol shots in rapid succcs'-ion attracted the atten tion of the bystanders, who at first failed to lake in the horrors of the situation. The assassin, Charles Guiteau, a dissappoiuted oflice-sseker, was instantly pinioned by strong amis and hurried" to jail. "1 have killed Garfield," he shouted; "Arthur will be president. I am a stalwart." Around the bleeding form of President Gar field were gathered mcujt of the mem bers of his cabinet. A mattress was brought, the president w:ts placed upon it and tenderly carried to a private room in the depot building. Afdispatcii was instantly sent for sur geons. The president was faint and weak from los of blood. "Take me home," he murmured to his sun, "1 am content to live or die, (Sod's will be done." An ambulance was quickly summoned, and escorted by a guard of mounted soldiers, the sufferer was driven to the white house. From the time he was placed upon his bed, the condition of the president w:ts considered critical. At 3 o'clock a consultation of physicians was held and a bulletin was" issued pronouncing his case hopeless. Meanwhile telegrams had been sent to Mrs. Garfield, who was con valet ing from her sickness at Long Branch; urging her to come at once to Wash ington. Before the President was removed from the depot, he directed the following dispatch to bo sent to his wife: "The president wishes me (o say to you from him that he has been se riously hurt. How seriously he can not yet say. Ho is himself, and hopes you will come to him soon. He sends his love to you. A.F. Rockwell." Mrs. Garfield left Long -branch at 4 o'clwck on Saturday afternoon in a special train, and arrived in Washing ton at i o clock in the evening. The meeting between the husband and wife was inexpressibly touching, but her presence seemed at once to soothe the sufferer. His pulse diminished and at y o'clock he was sleeping quietly. Later in the evening he rasied and asked Dr. Bliss to tell him the truth regarding his condition. "I consider your case very critical," said the doctor, "and that you have probably one chance in a hundred of recovery." "Well," replied the presi dent cheerfully, "we will take that chance," Shortly afterwards he ilrep ped quietly to sleep. THE EFFECT ON THE COUNTY. The news that President Garfield had been assassinated was immedi ately flashed across the wires to every town and city of the country. In New York, Boston, Chicago, Cincinnati and other large cities public senti ment was aroused as by a mighty whilwind fceiing. Crowds gathered around the newspaper offices, block ing the streets and watching eagerly for the latest bulletins. Horror and sorrow were expressed on every face. Strong men wept like children. At first there was a tendency to connect tho assassination with political fact ionisin. Cooler moments banished the idea and attributed the crime to the act of a madman. As the day wore on the excitement was increased. Business was largely suspended and the eagerness to get the latest news of the president's condition was earnest and pathetic. Notwithstanding the broiling sun, thousand; stood patient ly in the street watching for the news as it came in. The extra issued by the papers were eagerly purchased as fast as printed, and the great journals found themselves unable to supplv the demand. The universal senti ment was one of amazement and sor row. The large place which the president had obtained in the great heart of the country was evidenced by the universal grief. Political dHV erences, factional disputes, all were buried, and words of tender solicitude for the wounded president were on every one's lips. In the south the feeling of sorrow was as genuine as the north. Every portion of the country were united bv a common sentiment which abolished sectional lines. In England, in Germany, in France, in Russia, and Spain the news created unmingled surprise and astonishment. England's queen was the first to cable her condolence and anxiety for later news. From every country pf the civilized world camo messages of tender solicitude indica tive of respect for our country and its chief executive. The shock given to the people of the United States seemed to nave communicated itself around the globe, and its influence was felt in every nation. But amid all the excitement attending the great calam ity, doubts were never expressed as to the stability of of our institutions. Sorrowing over what was felt to be the nation's loss, thousands repeated the words of General Garfield uttered seventeen years ago on like occasion, "God still reigns and the government lives in Washington." . THEULST ILLNESS. Eearlyin the president's illness it was determined to call in medical aid from abroad. Drs. D. Hayes Agnew, of Philadelphia, and Frank Hamilton, of New York, two of the most distin guished practitioners and medical authorities in the country, were bb moned and reinforced the medical staff then in attendance at the white fcousc. The location of the wound and the direction which the bullet seemed to have taken indicated that laceration of the liver and probable perforation of the inUstinea had taken r" -& . &2$r- .-iw placr. and fot'owin;; all medical au thorny and precJcnl tbe pbyati very properly reful m starch for the ball by probing.

From July 3d until the I3lu the preatdent's pulse rnul from 126 to fj6 and averaged 1US. During this period there wa danger from tympanites, pert ton tti. secon dary hemmorrbage and all the dan- "gcrs wnicn are-liteiy 10 snow mem selves during the tirst nine day after a gunshot wound. These wore how ever skilfully avoided and from July 15 to July 2-"$ the patient's pulse mwr f xceeded V) but once, July 1$, when it was 102. Whether inteutionally or unintentionally the physician for several weeks allowed the jteople to U'coine overconfident concerning the president condition. Hope strength ened daily and steps were rven taken for holding public thanksgiving over the Irfgiuiug of convalescence. On July 23rd the president's pulo wa 9'2 at 3 a. m. at 7 p. m. tt had reached 125. A rigor had seized the president and fears were entertained which afterwards were sadly reclized that blood poi.-omug had set in. On the 24th Dr. Agnew vorformed an operation and released the im prisoned pus, and the portions of the shattered rib. Two days later the cut was enlarged. For a few da the president improved. His pulse from July 26 to August 7 averaged less than 100 and only exceeded that figure five tunes. 1 lie wound fiad partial- lv cloc-el and August 7 a new cut wa made below the twelfth rib and ounces of pus were removed. two .... "v cut was mane in me nacic, wiucli was benumed with the rigoliue spray, ami ether was administered. This "can Mil nausea, and the vomiting which fol lowed wa.- anything but favorable to the natient's further recoverv. L'p and down, vibrating between hie and death, steadily growing weaker, making advances towards strength only to fall back again nearer to death, this was a synopsis of the president'.' case up to 'the time when, on the 1'Jth instant, a swelling ap peared in the parotid gland, which the physicians were forced to admit came irom a poisoned condition of the blood. Pya:mia. the dreadful disease consequent upon gun-shot wounds, had set in. On August 20th another operation was found neces sary, and the physicians discovered that the wound which had been thought closed up to within a few inches of the opening, had not closed at all. The wall was broken down and a catheter was inserted down ward and forward for n distance of 12i inches from the external surface of the last incision. There had been pus there, for it had been noticed oozing out through the wound. The conclusion was inevitable that the pus had been absorbed into the sys tem. Prostrate, daily growing weaker emaciated to a skeleton, and sustain ed by enemas, the life of the president seemed to be slowly ebbing away, until on Thursday, with a puNe at 120 and the temperature at OS. delirious and exhausted, the physicians were reluctantly compelled to admit that General Garfield's lease of life was almost terminated and his troubles at an end. On Thursday, August 2th, a second incision was made in the wound. The president was himself and for the first time earnestly pressed upon his physicians the ne cessity of removing him from the white house to a more healthy sur rounding. On Friday, August 2Gth, another serious relapse took place and the life of the president was des paired of, but the day following a change for the hotter brightened the hearts of the people. The pulse, which had been raging nt 131 drop ped to 103 the temperature to 98. The improvement was continued during the ensuing week anil recovery seemed probable if the malarious in fluence of the white house could be overcome by removal to another loca tion. On Tuesday August 31, the pulse diminshed in frequency to I5 and the temperature and respiration became normal. On the 1st of Sep tember the question of removing President Garfield was discussed by the physicians and on Saturday, Sep tember 3d, the change was officially decided upon. Franklin cottage at Long Branch was placed ot the dis posal of the suffering executive by its owners, and during all Saturday, Sun day and Monday, September 2d, 4th and .rth, preparations were rapidlv made for the conveyance of the presi dent by rail to the seashore wilh the least possible danger and inconven ience. On Tuesday, September fith, the transfer was safelv made in .even and a quarter hours by rail, without ble symptoms. lllC COOl sea breezes seemed to irive new life to the sufferer. o.l .,t. f tl.n, n...l r iJ, -L- nn.Knnr ..w ..,,., v..w w..v vr. ...v. ..v.n. ww.j. oepiemuer iuiii, vuiitiiicsvuvu seuineti t to be near at hand. On Sundav. September 11th, unfavorably symp toms again returned, the pulse rising to 120, and indications of yrwemia setting in. From that date until yes terday the progress of the case was uniformly downwards, strength de creasing with the rising pulse and increasing temperature. On Friday, September 17th, the condition of the president was admitted to be very critical. The lungs which earlier in the week had shown clear signs of abcess formations now indicated un mistakably septic poisoning. Satur day and Sunday brought no cessation in the alarming symptoms. On Mon day morning at 8 o'clock the presi dent was seized Arith a deathlike rigor from which he ralied with difficulty. A half an hour later- another chill followed, the putee rising to 130. At 10 o'clock the physicians gave up all hopes of recovery, and later in the evening the last spark flickered and went out. WSA5S02S!TSI3M?7! Intelligence received from the War ner Observatory, Rochester 2". Y., announces the discovery of a new comet in the constellation of Virgo. It is a striking coincidence that this new and bright comet appeared at the same hour President Garfield ttss breathing his last. It was first seen by E. E. Barnard in Nashville, Tenn., who has made claim through Prof. Swift for the Warner prize of $200 in gold. This makes- the fifth comet seen since May first, and of this num ber four have appeared from almost the same spot in the heavens. i 7 Per Cent. Honey to Loan!
