THE BMTKRTAimilBNT.
On last Friday and Saturday oveninga
Frof. G. M. Castor, assisted by hla Tory
ablo corps of assistants, prosented tho
Rod Cloud public wlthonoof tho most in
teresting and novol homo entertainments
that it hits boon our plcasuro to hoar
slnco residing in Rod Cloud, For qulto
a numbor of days provious, our reporter
had heard it rumored that there would
to n scoool entortalnmont, but did not
presume that it would be any thing more
than an ordinary ovory day ovont; but
immogino our surpriso to find an entor
talnmont that was in every way both ap
preciable and commendablo and a
credit to our schools in ovory way. Tho
training of tbo scholars was faultlose,
and each and every ono rendered tholr
various parts to almost porfoction and
olicitod tho loudost applause,
In this article we find oursolvoa un
able to go into detail in picking
out the boat parte, on account of the
length of tho program and because of
a'gonoral feeling that all did so woll
that it would bo almost impossible to
toll which part was rosily tho best, aaall
scorned to have docidod to do tholr ut
most to gratify the public and their in
structors. Doth ovenlnga the opera houso
was donsely packed, and many wero un
nblo to gain ontranco to the large audi
torium. The people of Rod Cloud should
certainly fool vory proud oyor tho chil
dren of our public Bchools, and wo feel
justly clatod, from tho fact that tho pu
pils, who took part and those who did
not, aro mora than abovo the average in
intellect und uncommonly studious,
which is cortalnly a mark of distinction
on behalf of tholr instructors and tbo
general management of tho public
schools of Red Cloud.
The proceeds of the entortalnmont
woro 184.11, which, after paying tho
necessary expenses, will be devoted to
establishing a public school library.

Ely with a fine Past Master Workman's
badgo, using tho following langungo:
Duothf.k Elt: In nil our acquaint
ance you hnvo boon a stalwart champion
of tho church. Thoro is another organi
zation, of hko vonornblo antiquity, of
which you are not it morubor. In tho
sublimity of tholr teachings nnd tho
rovorenco duo tholr ago, Masonry nnd
tho church fur Burpass all humnn insti
tutions. Yet thoso outside, nnd oven
those inside thoso vonorablo and august
societies, havo somo times thought tholr
homes wore too much in tho clouds, nnd
too littlo on tho earth.
Thoro is nnothor organization, born
s nee your birth, which socks to reduce
thosubllrao idealism of masonry nnd tho
church to actual practice. It stnrts
with both feet on tho ground, Jwhilo its
Blanco is ofton heavenward, jot
its oycB nro not bo fixed on
"mansions in tho skies," but that
thoy chiefly noto tho mansions
on tho earth, tho dwellings on the hills
tho cottages in tho bottoms. Its bene
diction rests upon tho widow nnd tho
fatherless, and its throno is erected in
tho homos of its membership.
Of that organization you havo boen

honored with tho highest ofllcos in tho

We trust, that notwithstanding your

beautiful lunguogo ot that poot, whoso

Drothor Ely was completely tnkou bi

feelingly responded, thanking tho broth

The New P. M. This woek Geo
J. Warren stepped down and out of
the post office, and Frank Cowdco, the
now postmaster, stepped in. Frank
Cowdcn is a young man not exceeding
25 years, but has orery qualification
that goes towards making up a good
postmaster. Ho is thorough demo
crat, coming honestly by it, his father
being a Simon pure, dyed in the wool,
rock-ribbed membor of tbo untcrrificd
lo, theso many yoars, yea, even from
childhood's gentle hours, did the Jef-
fcraonian blood course through his
veins, and Frank absorbed his democ
racy by hcritago; hence, he is quali
fied to fill a long-felt want in the dem
ocratic heart, Aside from hii politics
ho is a "hail follow woll met," nnd we
aro pleased, if it must bo so, to seo as
good a democrat behind tho bars, we
mean boxes. Having intimately
known Frank a great many years, wo
feel confront that ho will, along with'
his ablo and most accommodating as
sistant, Mies Clara McMillan, attond
to Uncle Sam's post office business
with promptness and despatch.
