Sunday night the awning over the Butter mid Egg Rtoro caught tiro and had it not been for tho prompt action of n few passers by very serious results might havo occurred. Messrs. Haskell and Boeworth have decided to discontinue their branch house, in this city and consolidate it with tho Beatrice Iioubo. Tub Ciiikk is sorry that they have arrived nt this con clusion, as the institution, undor tho management of Mr. N. W. Kingsland, was doing an innuendo business, but tho tlrni wished to curtail expenses for the time boing and took this mothod. We hopo thoy will decido to relocate it at no distant date. Thursday ovening, nbout 8:30, ShorilT Runchey and Nightwntch Miller cap tured a wandering gontloman who was in possession of a bicycle which had bcon stolen from Greeley, Col. Sheriff Runchey noticed tho fellow standing on tho State bank corner, tho wheel stand ing near by. On comparing tho wheel with a circular in his possession, John gavo the uightwatch tho wink and thoy immediately foreclosed on the party, who doclarod his innocenco and wanted a chanco to identify himself. While on tho way to the jail, tho two policemen proposed entering E. McFarland's storo to givo tho thief his chance, but that wasn't the chanco ho waa looking for. Giving tho wheel a shove into tho storo, he took to his heels, with Runchey und Miller in hot pursuit. Tho nightwntch drew bis gun and, calling on tho fellow to halt, began ttring at his foot, but this only increasod his speed, if that woro posaiblo. So tho race continuod a fow blocks, until our Hoot-footed bicycle ridor ran into a wiro fence around some vacant lota and wao again takon into custody. Boing only a block from tho Hotel d'Runchey, ho was escortod to that domicile and registered. Ho gavo his name as F. T. Rutledge, and, from certain articles found on his porson, he is supposed to bo inoro than n common thief. Ho had safo blowors' tools, and newspapor clippings concerning a bank robbery in Ontario, Canada, with which it is thought ho wan eonnected. A ro ward of $10 was offorod for the wheel and 910 for the thiof nt Greeley. If tho bank robber suspicions prove corroct, there will probably bo n nico fat reward coming from that quarter There wero two wheols stolon at tho same tlnio from Greeley, and Rutledgo is supposed to havo a partner somowhoro. Take your wagon work to Stapleton Ho forgea nil irons for buggies out of the best Norway iron, uses no malleablo iron in repairing buggioa. Ono of our traveling salosmen, who travols for a clothing firm, has a novel way of onjoying hlniBolt while on the road. Entering a clothing store, ho will politely ealuto the merchant, at tho Bamo timo taking a huge overcoat from a grip and handing it to tho clothier to oxamino. Tho hotter the day the bottor the fun. After enlightening the mer chant on this and that point, our sales man finally induces him to try tho tit. He then tolls tho morchant how nico tho back sots, etc., for about ton min utes, walks round and buttons tho front up tight, showing him how the chest flta and complimenting tho double row of buttons which ahow tho full length, then turning up the ten inch collar he explains how it is impossible for any enow or cold to reach tho head or neck, also the band across tho front to guard the chin and mouth from the wintry blasts and all this for halt an hour in the hottest of June woathor. Think of the thermomotor at 1.10 in the ehado and that man at 1.47 in the coat, try ing to breathe with that strap acroea bin mouth and tho cornor of a lapel in oach nostril, and to make things hotter, the traveling man keeping up a constant tiro of words, Talk about onorgy; bo's tho "hottest" travolor wo'vo gor. The mer chant sweat ninetoon coats of porsira- tion and sovoral pants, but ho wouldn't invost. -It's a fact; our reporter hoard it was, The U. S. Gov't Reports r " show Royal Baking Powder j , superior to all others,. ,', lllcyuiu Ititccx. Quito n largo crowd of our citizohe guthored at tho cycle track Wednesday evening, at soven o'clock, to witness the of eomo of our siioeilers.

No. 3 was handicapped by it heavv wheel but gave them hard chase, all threo tin- ishing in a bunch. Time, :17J. The Boeond oyont was it boys' raco for a quarter mile, which aroused a groat deal of enthusiasm. Bort Morhnrt took Ilrst, Frank Petorson second, nnd Clur onco Winters third. Geo. Morhnrt. Homer Sherwood, Joo Blnir nnd Frank Cowdon comnosed the third raco, which was to bo n half milo. Iho Ilrst quarter was mado nt a warm clip, paced by Wallace Wright. At this placo Frank Cowdon mado a spurt nnd took tho lead until on tho homo atrotch, where ho waa tiiinRml liv rim, f.i....t who crossed the tapo half a wheel's longtli nlionil. Time, l.Ufl'f After tho excitement had somowhnt subsidod, Hugh Minor rode n milo with a Hying start, against time, but the timo keopor had a stop-watch and was un able to announco tho time. Tho fifth nnd last event was n half milo rnco, with Charloy LandmcBBor, Frank Richardson and Bon McFarland as competitors. Bon took tho lead from the start, setting a 2:20 paco, and tho out look was in hia favor until noar tho closo of the last quartor, when both of tho other riders Huccoodod in passing him, Charley Landmasser first. Tho timo wan 1.17. Thero woro no accidonta to mar tho pleasuro of tho evonlng'a sport, and it is neodleart to nay thnt tho races woro en joyed by everyone, participants includ ed. Tho boys may continue to givo these exhibitions, giving ono every two weeks. If thoy concludo to do so, it will bo something good to entertain tho peo pie nnd bo an inducomont for tho ridora to train for bottor timo. Mittrliuoiilnl. On Wednesday morning at 8 o'clock occurred tho wedding of Miss Addlo Rolglo, ono of Rod Cloud's fair and ac complishod young ladioa, to Mr. Fred Ligget, tho popular and cultured cashier of ono of tho Hebron banks. Miss Roiglo has rosidod in Red Cloud einco hor earliest recollection and has grown to maturo womanhood within tho con fines of our city, whoro she has hnnln nf friends among all classes, and while hor many iriontis aro Borry to loeo hor from Rod Cloud society, yot thoy aro most happy to havo tho honor of extending hoarty congratulations ovor the pleasant ovont which changed hor name from Miss Addio Rolgle to Mrs. Fred Liggot.

The Ciiikk bids tho young couplo godspod and un alloyed pleasuro in their conjugal rela tions. Tho other day our reporter went into a eortain restaurant in town and found tho clerk busily ongaged in waiting up on a young lady. Aftor the young lady had departed, the olork walked round and absent mindodly took the reporter's ordor for a milk-shako. Taking tho jar of ilavoring from tho upper ehelf, he poured tho necessary amount into a glass and then gontly sat tho jar undor tho counter among tho lemonadoglassce, at tho eamo timo asking who the young lady was. He then shaved tho ice, put It in tho glass, and thon, holding the glass undor the water tank, longingly inquired whero sho lived. Tho othor pnrty didn't answer the question, but aakod tho clerk who ho waa making that mess for. On being brought to hm sonsos ho was told what kind of a mix ture ho had, and he thon declared ho was making strawborry pop. Novertho less, ho sot 'om up to the reporter.
