At her home in Red Cloud, Neb.,
April 5, 1891, Mrs. Lucy J. Ross,
aged 42 years, 9 months, and 29 days.
Miss Thompson was born in Yir
oqua, Wis., June C, 1848, and was
married to II . W. Ross in Cedar
Rapids, Iowa, October 20, 1SG7.
She joined the United Brethren
church about eleven years ago, was
baptized and become a member of the
Christian church about one year ago.
She had been afflicted 1G years, suf
fering severely at times, especially
the last 8 months.
She leaves a husband and three
children to profit by her example as
well as to mourn her loss. Four
children have preceded their mother
into cUrnity. In the midst of sick
neen, Buffering, and disappointment
she manifested wonderful patience,
and developed s lofty Christian
character.
Services were conducted at the
Christian church Tuesday morning by
O. II. Truman.
Died.
At the residence of her mother, Mrs
A. M. Nye, in Red Cloud, Nebraska,
April G, 1S91, of consumtion, Miss
May Evelyn Nye, aged 23 years and
28 "days.
May Evelyn Nye wa- born in Cam
bridge, Illinois, March S, 18GG.
She was a loving obedient child,
and a kind sister and playmate.
When fifteen years of age she, to
gether with her two sisters, united
with the Congregational church of
their native place; of which church
they were members at the time of her
death.
She was an earnest, consistent
Christian, working for the Muster,
or patiently suffering and wating.
She was always ready, and when the
summons came was not afraid to go.
Services were held in the Congre
atioma! church Wednesday afternoon
by Rct. l'alis.
The three sisters Mary, Mablo andj
May were of the same age, and look-
ed so much alike that in former vcars1
their own parents could hardly tell
them apart. The circle of three is J

The Election.
The election last Tuesday under
the new Australian ballot system was
a complete success and was one of the
most quiet affairs of the kind ever
held in the city. Not a bit of elec
tioneering was to be teen and every
voter was permitted to go to the polls
and vote hi sentiments a.s he pleased.
The law is certainly a great success
and a big improvement over the oid
stj?le of holding elections where a
voter's footsteps were dogged to the
cry ballot box by ward heelers and
beconJ class politicians, to see that
he voted right. The Tue-day election
resulted iu the election of
M. B. McNitt, Mayor
T. J. Waid. Clerk
Henry Cook, Treasurer
For members of the school board
Mrs. Ellen J. Ducker, H. E. Fond,
and Geo. O. Veiser.
Alderman 2d ward G. ll.Whitson.
Aldermen 1st ward, M. W. Dicker
sou and David II. Rudd.
Messrs Ward and Cook aie demo
crats, and Mr Whitson independent,
and from that the balance of the tick
et is republican.
Mr. McNitt wn- elected by about
thirty majority over Mr. Rentier.
Tho new ofiicera are good ones and
will do their duty rcgardlsss of fear
or lavor. Wc feel confident that Mr.
McNitt will make one of the beat
mayors that Red Cloud has ever had,
and we think his election show- the
wisdom of having two tickets iu the
field u.- there can be no objection to
the choice of the people. The Chikf
is not inclined to crow over the elec
tion, but will say that the choice of
the people will alioar that th selec
tion of a republican ticket was no
"mistake" as one of our city exchange
was pleased to call it, but on the
other hand was a roaring success
