II. Hoskins, oditot of Norcatur RoglBtor, wna In Hod Cloud this week on buelnees and niado our editorial wigwam a pleasant viHJt. E. M. Coldron, editor of the Obcrlin (Hubbub) Horul, was a ploasunt vlaltor to our tepee thifl week. He runs the only "pop" papor in Oborlin. While other people wont to church last Sunday, Orovor Cleveland wont ilehlng. Tho old lino detnocratR should never whip their boys, horeaftur, for fishing on Buntlny. This week tho Columbus (Montana) Express, published by Altken it Potter, caiiio knocking ut our sunctum table marked X. Tho Potter In question is Archie Potter of this city. Tho Express aturts out in nico uhnpo and is brlmfull of nowfl nud is very neatly printod. Archio being one of Tiik Chirp's off- springe, typographically sponKlng, we inuBt wlfih blin an abundanco of success and beapcak for him fame as a newspaper man. ilo hns got tho right kind of ring to become such. J. A. Tullivb of llila city has for tho Bccond tlmo been appointed custodian of tho grand lodge. Mr. Tulleys is a III Mason, and lias tho conildenco of his brethren. Mr. Tulloye has no equal as far as ofllcioncy in tniiBotiry goes. Ho belongR to eomo fifteen or twonty differ cnt Bociotioi and with a numberless number of dogreeB, yet it is said of him thnt ho never makes a mistake in any pf tho lodgoa but has tho work down to perfection on all of thorn. The grand lodgo line mado no mistake in this appointment. Tho railroads of the various compan ies in this county wore assessed as fol lows: Republican Valley, 43 7D-100thB miles, per mllo 14,300; Nebraska k Col orado, 20 3-lOOths miles, per mllo 13,300; Paclflc railway, 15-lOOthn of a mile, $489. Tho raise of 70 mills in Ploasant Hill by the board of supervisors is a very un just alTair to that township. Tho board attomptod to raiso tho valuation of llvo stock, and took the abovo method, which not only raises tho livo stock but all personal property, but rather than to piok out tho valuo of livo stock and raise it individually tho increase was mado on all personalty, which will cuubu mer chants, for instanco, living in Cowles to pay a groater umount of taxes on their stocks than thoso of this city would pay. The slipshod assessments and the slip shod equalizations aro enough to compel a fellow to oxclnlm "whoro are wo at" for good bueiness men to transact our busi ncfis. Out in Webstor county, noar tho Francis school house, lies a llttlo un known grave, almost obliterated by the passage of years. A slight depression tho ground is all that indicates tho spot whore years ago an emigrant laid his little child away to sleep, who had sick oned and died in the long Journey across the plains, No stone to mark tho spot; no kind heart to remombor tho lonely grave; only a paront's knowledgo that somewhere on the vast prairio their lit tle one was laid away. But on last Decoration day the children of that school carefully restored the little grave, cleared tho surroundings, and plantod shrubs to mark the epot, afterward liter ally covering the little mound with fra grant blossoms. At tho conclusion of thoso ceromonloB they marched around the grave two by two and, pausing at tho head, lifted their childish voices in the hymn "O think of tho homo over there." Beautiful childhood, with tho Qod-givon lovo of fellow creatures yot undimmod by worldly oxporionco, the kindly impulsos of your heart, bo ten dorly carried out provo tho strength of human symyathy, und tho univorsal brothorhood of man, Every mother bleBKoa your fragrant deed for the enko of tho lonely mothor who, years beforo, left so much of her hoart and lifo on tho wild Nebraska prairlos.

Thirteen gentlemen with wheols (par don ub, wo mean bicycles) from Hod uiouu invauou our cuy iobi nunuay. With ono or two exceptions thoy were tho siimo jolly band that got badly hyp notized through the influonco of four gallonB of new milks which wfia harm lessly supplied them at Smith's pond on tho previous Sunday. Wo havo the authority of Tiik Chief for this last Item, and of courso that paper, liko our selves, Is Infallible Thero was a heavy wind blowing on Sunday foronoon, and the boys from the county Beat wore obliged to "pump" for all thoy wore worth. Somo ef them woro protty bad ly usod up, notably Bart Wright, At Albright and W. A. Sherwood. In fact, if wo had not seen their whoois, wo would havo boon tomptod to Imagine that tho whole crowd bad beon, for 20 miles, wasting their utmost energies try ing to produce in unison a top B ilat from oach of 13 asthmatic cornots at least, that's just what their facos indi cated. Wright and Albright came into town last, throw their wheels down on the mlddlo of main street, and pitched themselves In a corpse-liko fashion on the nearest sidewalk. As thoy lay thoro at full stretch, thoy scemsd to wish that eomo of our benevolent cltlzons would dig a deop gravo, fill it with ice water, thon empty thorn In, saying a prayer over thorn and bidding n longfarowcll to tholr respected hardwaro clork and worthy grocory merchant. Charloy Landniesser headed olT to shock tho tendorly religious and Sabbatarian eon sibilities of our blacksmith by strongly Buggosting to him tho absolute necessity for a now crank on the pedal of his wheel, and during his ubsence tho two Boml-unconeciouB gontlemon woro par tially rovived. Whon they roolized, however, that wo had nothing here but. that dreadful now milk, and that nono of our worthy citizens would tax his conscience with the foarful responsibili ty of supplying them with it, they re solved on going right away to Blue Hill. So thoy commissioned Charley Robin son to telegraph over there, ordering dinner for thirteen and "new milk" for eixty-flvo. Wo havo not heard of tho gentlomon since, but we fool certain that that beautifully golden colored nnd finely transparent now milk, which is bo plontiful in Bluo Hill, had an ontiroly different effect on tholr physical system to the naturally adulterated substance which comes direct from those unobtru sively useful animals at Smith's pond. This unlucky number should drop off, or add a man to their band. Bladen Enterprise. I1UKII &OTES. M. F.. nOTEI. Great interest was shown in tho study of tho S. S. lesson last Sabbath. L. P.
