The Chief wishes them success.

Bert Cromwell, who has been in
the employ of Major Swan, at the B. &

and will take a position as "Diamond''
engineer on the B. it M. Ed. has tho
heartfelt wishes of his friends here.
Who w11 be our representatives?
This county should think twice, and
then select the men who will be the
most fitting for the position. We want
good solid men for representatives, and
those who are .known to be good
straight republicans. The Chief be
lieves that aggressive men should be
selected, men who will work for the
people without fear or favor.
Prof. Schindelmeissek, of Lincolu,
a piano tuner, widely known through
out the southern portion of the state,
has, during the hist week, been stay
ing among us, and by his good work
and gentlemanly bearing, has won the
good will of the community. The pro
fessor expects to Tisit this place regu
larly hereafter, and our citizens will
no doubt be only too glad to reserve
their work for him.
Blue Hill is one of the most flour
ishing town3 in the west. Its business
men are enterprising to a dot. Enter
prise is what makes towns grow and
become important. The enterprising
merchants of Red Cloud are what
have made Red Cloud what it is to
day; one of the most flourishing cities
1 idjKebraska. Inv fact the towns in
Webster countv are made up of that
class of citizens: Push is the watch-
Success is.- certain.

The entire train being derailed, happily

it to our readers for what it may be
worth. This makes five times within
the past six weeks that these cowardly
attempts" have been made. Hemp
necktie parties may be expected along
the line of the A. & N. if this business
continues.
Red Cloud should certainly have
some protection against fire. It is a
very careless thing to do for our peo
ple to go along without any protection
whatever. It would not be a bad idea
to form a bucket brigade, and also a
hook and ladder company. Either
could be done without much expense,
and in case of fire would be the means
of saving a great deal of monc' to our
town. Let some of our people look af
ter this important matter, for such it is
without a doubt.

The store owned by O. P. Wiggins
and his nephew Win. Wiggins at Coro

iles troy cd by tire the night of Augut
3, about 10 o'clock. Fire caused by
the explosion of a lamp. Nothing was
saved from the stock but the pot of
fice department, a few shelf good,
some few sacks of feed, and the money
drawers. The .xtock was insured but
not the building. Mr. Win. Wiggins
is well known in this vicinity, his fam
ily reiiding near here. He lost all his
personal effect.
A Duki.. A ripple of excitement
whs caused by a scratching match on
the cast aide on Wednesday. Two
best in three, distance sixty feet, and
lots of fun. When time wan called
and the canibatauts culled up to the
grand stand, some fellow was unkind
enough to say that it was " first blood
for Cleveland." Tho Marquis of !ooc
berrv rules were omitted.
Prof. Xaiui. lias tho most complete
mastery over his rich and powerful
voice. He delighted his audience with
several of his own poetical produc
tions, best of which was the "Beggar
Uoy." This beautiful poem is equal
iu freshness and sentiment, and sti
pe noi in poetic merit, to any over
written by our favorite, Will Carlton.
Wo believe Mr. Xadal is the only elo
cutionist in the country who adds to
the charms of bis fine voice and native
genius for reading a repertoire of his
own productions. Chmigo Inter Ocean.
On Wednesday las't while Mr. M. R.
Bcntly, of this city was driving in the'
country, he called on his friend, Oliver
McCall, living in Line precinct whom
he found very busily engaged in farm
duties. Mr.. McCall has a tine orchard
of some fifty trees, which Mr. Bently
thinks will amount to at least seventy -
'live bushels, the largest yield probably
ever produced in the county. He has
also a tine lot of cattle, among which
are a number of thorough-breds, and
Mr. B. thinks he has the finest lot of
spring calves he ever saw in the coun
ty. He has 125 acres ofcorn that will
go not less than seventy-five bushels to
the acre. He has one of the finest farms
in the county, and why not, for he is a
hard working man and understands
his business.
The Union Pacific surveyors have
come and gone again. This time th cy
have made a complete and permanent
survey, and we understand that the
road is almost an assured fact, or at
least that seems to be the sentiment ol
Uie surveyors. The officials of the
road accompanied by Jay Gould have
been looking over the eastern end of
the extension, and we understand that
they are satisfied with the prospect.
The railroad as surveyed is said to be
one of the best lines possible to be se
cured in the state for a railroad to trav
erse, and it seems plausible with all
the advantages to be obtained there
from, that the U. P. will build the road
and the newspapers along the line
seem to think that operations will be
commenced on the same before the
snow Hies again.
A Dream Realized. For some
months past John Parkes has been
trying to get a good well bored on hi3
farm, but it so happened that he was
only partially successful, until recently
when he had a new one sunk, but as
before only a small amount of water
run in. The other night John, while
sleeping as only a shoemaker can
peacefully he dreamed that the well
had suddenly opened a new vein, and
was running over. John seemed to
be struck forcibly with the dream, and
determined to go and see if the dream
was a sham, and straightway harnessed
his bronchos to his sidebar, and drove
out to his farm, where, lo ! and behold 1
his dream was realized, for the water
was surely running out at the top of
the well in a large stream. John was
a happy man, and now believe that
dreams are forerunners of coming
events.

At a regular meeting, with out pots
"properly guarded," we had transact
ed our regular business. There being
no cause for alarm, we were lighting
over the battles of bygone days, when
our out-posts were suddenly attacked
and overpowered by the ladies' Relief
Corp?, armed with tin cups and plates,
inarching to the music of the coffeepot
who demanded an unconditional atir
render of the Post. Our commander's
appetite being good, his stomach over
coming his valor, surrtnd!od; and
chivalrous as it may serm. we pro
cccded to avert the calamity by ab
sorbing the ladies' ammunition, con
histing of hot cotFec, sandwiches, cake,
etc., and what in army parliance would
have been considered disastrous to the
cause. It was. a surprise long to lo re
membered and the most pleasautit has
been our lot to enjoy. After some ap
propriate remarks by the Rev. Com
rade Brown and other, and singing
some of the old camp songs, all repair
ed to their homes, feeling that it was
good to bo there.
Tin Fair.
The Webster county agricultural so
ciety are bound to havo a No. 1 fair
this year. The 700 spoken of lat
week us necessary to buy tho present
grounds has been raised, and the asso
ciation will soon bu transformed into a
duly incorporated association under
the state law. This will give the asso
ciation funds by which they can fence
the grounds and make other improve
ments. Let every farmer, every me
chanic, every laborer, every merchant
and every lady in the county make dil
ligeut efforts to take "Otne article to the

tAlcc pains and pick out some of their
best grain, vegetables, fruits, etc., for
fair, and not only that make arrang
ments now to haye some of their best
stock on exhibition. Let every body
boom the fair, its bound to be a success
this year.
m m
Tom j patreai aim! friaiU,
I wish to say before leaving you that
I thank you for the past favors and the
respect which you hae shown me dur
ing the past two years that I have been
among you. It b with a feeling of re
gret that I leave you, but in view of
the field before me and the opportunity
offered, I am fully decided to go and
accept a position at Peking, China. We

A correctiox. In the notice of dis
trict 56 last week it should le 36. In
four years teaching in Nebraska the
teacher has never seen a kinder or
better people or a better board of di
rectors. To them and tc Kent's and
Street's districts the teacher returns his
gratitude and love for kind treatment
during ten months teaching. They ex
cell all others for kind treatment to
the aged. Dear friends, farewell.

Tho Guide Rock nine 'chawed up

Tho Red Cloud necond nine played
the Guide Rock second nine here Ut
Friday. The day was all that could
be desired, with its gentle warmlh and
mellow light of what emed U be an
autumnal sun, while an invigorating
breeze tirr,ed the locks and rustled
the coming mustaches of the boy an
they marched to the ground in 6i'
atonal tyle. To add zest to the aftVir,
the little rootem from !Ud Cloud of
fered to bet their last nickel that they
would get awav with our boy jut too
too. In addition to all that, our citi
zens of both exe and all conditions
turned out en mtut to witnoM tbia
conteat between the young athletes
from the two mot important town
along the Republican. Jarow Blair
stepped nimbly forth as catcher, while
Paul Iliare. of The Chiei. took his
taud a pitcher; M. A. Albright re
sponded to the call for hort-up, and
little Charlie Garber held Mm base ;
Henry Ludlow, al-o of Tiik Chiw,
took second ba.e. while Bert Brewer
occupied third. The active Loom Ken
ney, ofthe v4rjriMtook left field, the
sprightly Lee Tinker the center, while
the widVasrake Charles Kaley held
the right. For a few rounds the
chances were deciMlj against the
Red Cloud's, bets being offered on the
Guide Rocks with few takers. Bat as
the bright eed damseb chered tfee
'plavers, and" as no ont really knew
which nine they prefered, the HlUe
Clouds spread tbernseivea, and soon
began to retrieve. But few acooeots
occurred, ana- a better natured set of
boys on botk sides coule not be foand.
Sosaevery fine dknlays of scientiic
knowlf-dce of the noble gssse were ex
hibited by both nines, and after a hot-
Jy contested trial or their reepecme
