FRIDAY, JAN. 4, I8S4.
WHEATLAND.
This is the national holiday, all bus
iness is suspended tind schools closed.
Xcws is scarce in this remote corner
of the county, nlttmu;h hloscd with
:us thrifty and enterprising clasn of vco
plc as can be found in any jxirt of the
hUlto.
A sail and melancholy event occured
lat Sabbath looming, six miles north
of Well pusl-oHtce, that has cast a
shadow over the entire community.
A Mr. Ecic while out hunting w.is shot
and instantly killed by the accidental
discharge of his jjvni. Tlic unfortun
ate man was a member of the G, A. II,
and leaves a wife? and four children.
The funeral was conducted by the
comrades of the l'ost at Wells, and was
largely attended by sympathizing
friends. More anon, W.
CATHE11T0N.
Died, at Catherton, Devcmlicr 28ih,
18S:5, Frances, daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. Ex.rsi M. Letncr," aged nearly six
wars. And-she answered, "It is well."
At lnr liniiin nn-ir C?;itllil'lnn. Sun
dav morning, December 31), 1883, Mrs. !
" .
Alverna, wife of Fritnca Jfi.,l'ync, aim
last surviving daughter of r Mr. and
Mrs. Cather, passed peacefully away to
Jicr eternal rest, aged 33 years, and
nine mouth. For several years she
had been nn invalid, but bore all her
suite-rings wi h a calm, patient. Chris
tian fortitndcj without murmuring,
praying Godto make her reconciled to
her lot ami ready for the great change.
She leaves a husband and two children
son and daughter, besides a large
umler of other family relatives and
friends to mourn her Ios. She was
buried beside her sister in a pleasant
move on her brother's farm. "Precious
in the sight of the Lord is the death of
-His saints." Psa. 11G-I5.
ON THE JiOAD.
Editor Ciiibf I see by traveling
Jhrough the county from Red Cloud to
Riverton, that everything looks pros
perous. Farmers have a smile on their
faces and generally feel god. The
nronrietor of the Inarale cheese fac-
torp, I see lias a tine and well stocked i
store, and is doing a good business.
C. Hunter has deserted his old house
and moved into his new one. Mr. H.
is feeding a fine lot of cattle this winter.
E. H. Jones Las built a new barn. Mr.
Ayers has cribbed about 3000 bushels
of corn, and says he is not through
huking yet. I observed in passing
Inavale that they have the side track
graded at that place and probably you
will see a depot building there ere
hong. J. L. Miner has a fine lot of cat
tie in his feed lot which he is feeding.
He has put in a pair of scales on his
farm so that he can weigh and receive
corn there. Next on Indian creek is
our old friend D. Hcllelbower and wife
who are now living in their new house
built last summer. They appear to
be prosperous and happy. Dave came
hear in the early days and located
where he now lives, and by hard
knocks and industry has got his farm
.n fine shape. This being a cold day,
Hinic I got to Red Cloud on fast. If
these few lines prove acceptable, will
give you more anon. Yours,
A. T. Raveler..
HARLAN, KANSAS.
Sohool has begun again with greater
interest and a larger number of stud
ents than any previous term. The
students are flocking in from every di
rection. Christinas was celebrated here by a
sermon on Christmas eve, and a tree
on Christmas night, at which all seemed
to be merry.
Mr. Herman, of Blue Hill, Neb., was
in town a few days ago, and left his son
and daughter to receive the benefits of
the winter and spring terms of school.
He haw taken a wise step.
Mr. Noble, from near Riverton, has
juat moved to Harlan for the purpose
of educating his children.
A protracted meeting will begin at
this place next Sunday evening.
The quarterly conference of the U.
B. Church, held at the college fast Sat
urday and Sunday, passed off pleas
antly. The son of Mr. Horneman, our
blacksmith, had the misfortune of
Mowing his upper lip oil', on Christ
inas day, while lie and some other boys
were tooling with a gun. The gun
was overloaded and burstcd. Fortun
ately the boy was not serioutdy injured.
The Harlan Chief w growing and
bids fair promise of"euccess as a. coun
ty paper.

Christ Church, Philadelphia, in

was tho place of the first convention of
that denomination in America. It was
built with brick from hnglaml ana
money raised in a lottery under the
management of Benjamin Franklin.
l Giieajo Times.
According to a western Bcnom
tcachcr the habit of chewing guin is
E reductive of myopia among the pupils,
eing forbidden to chew gum dtirini;
school hours, they seek to avoid detec
tion 1h the illicit enjoyment of the en
duriug morsel by holding their books
cIomj to their faces, thus bringing on
short-sightedness.
It costs France 83,800,000 to sup
port a State church. Episcopalian n
well as Roman Catholic clergymen are
paid by the State. M. Paul Bert, in
view of this enormous expense, and in
viiiur n( tliA H.i:irminr influence of
which patriots complain?' demands that
u l,.Ki:W.i-..-lii. liml.r.-it ho nhnlisniHI.

The Government, he says, should "sever
the last link which connects Church
and State." M. Ferry does not seem
to think that it should!! He appears to
bo very desirous of conciliating tho
churoliand the Pope.
Tho Reformed Dutch Church at
Spotswood, N. J., was knocked to
pieees by a sudden thundcrgust. First
the steeple toppled over on tho roof,
which it cut in two at the ridge polo.
Then tho walls fell apart, tumbling to
the ground in such a condition of wreck
that the remains are nothing better than
kindling wood. Tho church cost $8,
000, and was considered as good as any
wooilen sanctuary irf similar style. The
members are possessed of considerable
means, and are able to rebuild. In a
few months thoy will have a better
building than tho ono which was
wrecked.. Y. '"
SWEPT INTO THE STREAM.
w Umitaenul Acre of lAind and
l"Xi!ht Smart of Bears."
On the deck of a big Mississippi
steamboat stood an aged Southern
planter. Indicating by a sweep of his
arm the waters tho boat was passing
over, he said to a passenger from the
north : 4,When I was twelve years old
I killed mv first bear on a new planta
tion my father was then cutting out of
at forest that grew directly over the
waters of this bend. That was a mighty
ffood plantation, and there was right
smart of bears there, too. But that
one thousand acres of land went into
the Missisippi years ago."
It is putting no strain upon the fig
ure to say that great forests of youth
ful hope, womanly beauty and manly
strength are swept in the same way
every year into the great turbid tor-
rnnt of disease and death, et it
should not be so. That it is so is a dis
rrifn ns wpll n a loss. Peonlo are
largely too careless or too stupid to de
fend their own interests the most
precious ot which is health. That
gone, all is gone. Disease is simple,
but to recklessness or ignonince tho
the simplest things might as well be
complex as a proposition in conic sec
tions. As the huge Western rivers,
which so often flood the cities along
their.shores, arise in a few mountain
springs, so all our ailments can be
traced to impure blood and a. small
group of disordered organs.
The most effective and inclusive
remedy for disease is Parker's Tonic.
It goes to the sources of pin and
weakness. In response to it action,
the liver, kidneys, stomach and heart
begin their work afresh, and disease is
driven out. The tonic is not, howev
er an intoxicant, but cures ri desire f r
strong drink. Have you dyspepsia,
rheumatism, or troubles which have
refused to yield to other agents ? Here
is your help.
EXCITED THOUSANDS.
