THE DEAD REMEMBERED.
D tcoration Day Appropriately Observed by
the People of Red Cloud and
Vicinity.
Memorial day in Red Cloud was ob
served Tuesday by many moru pooplo
than usual. In splto of tho wind and
dust which mado tho outside ntmos-
phoro almost unbearable nnd made
n visit to tho cemetery whero tho dec
oration services were hold a very (lis
agrecablo task, tho frieuds of veter
ans who faced doath in tho civil united
with tlioso in whom a fresh patriotism
had boon instilled by tho recent war,
filled tho cemetery with ono of tho
largest crowds that over did homage
to tho dead heroes in the Rod Cloud
cemetery. Whon tho crowd left tho
cemetery not a soldier's grave was loft
untlecorated and scarcely a grave in
tho cntiro cemetery but what boro
somo token of tho memory of loved
onos. Tho ceremonies of Tuesday but
emphasi.o tho love that in boVno for
those who gave their best years or oven
their lives for their country. The bus
iness houses of tho city, with tho ex
ception of a few catch-pouiiy places,
closed their doors at noon and re-
maincd closed until 4 p.m. in observ
ance of tho day. Tho streets and bus
iness houses woro appropriately deco
rated with flags and bunting tho form

At 1 p.m. the procession formed at
the G. A. R. Hall with the' Second

who had seen service with the Third
jxeoraska volunteers, recently mus

lowed by tho G. A. R. and old soldiers
and sailors, fire department in uniform,
W. R. C. and citizens in carriages.
At tho cemetery tho usual decoration
and ritualistic services were performed
after which tho procession reformed
and marched back to tho city. Owing
to tho high wind and dust makincit
impossible to conduct the balanco of
tho program out of doors tho Congre
gational church was used. Rev. I. W.
Edson of tho Baptist church delivered
tho memorial address. The address
was a very ablo one, nnd not only ox
tolled tho old veterans for their deeds,
but also paid deep tribute to tho vol

Almost a Tragedy.
Mrs. Minn Brown was shot on. Tues
day afternoon by somo small boy with
a target rillo. Tho ballot, a 22-callbro,
struck her under tho loft arm. Ow
ing to tho distanco from which It had
been fired tho bullet was partly spent,
however it pierced her clothing and
mado quito a llesh wound in her loft
sido. It is Indeed fortunato for her
that tho bullet had'spont its force, as
its course was almost straight to tho
heart. At tho time tho bullet struck
her sho was working in tho Kitchen
and tho bullet camo through thoscreon
door. Perhaps it would now bo u good
thing for tho authorities to'nnt a sf nnltn
small boys overrunning our city with
a varied assortment of shooting nn
paratus, shooting nt birds or anything
olso that comes their way, and. nover
havo timo to look which way thoy aro
shooting. Almost ovory day boys can
bo soon around town with target rifles,
air guns and sling shots, ull of which
should bo prohibited. A shot frnm n
air gun or sling shot would bo just ns
nati in a persons eyo or othor tondor
spot as a bullet from a 22-riflu. If hnva
must havo these kind of weapons lot
mom go outsiuo tuo city limits to use
them. They aro nuisances and should
bo abated.
Healthy Financially.
For tho first time in history thorois
enough money in tho city treasury to
pay all outstanding warrants and snmn
to sparo. Suoh is the good word oivon
to us by City Treasurer Dow. Now
wo haven't tho least doubt but whnt

Richmond in Jail a Short While
Tho Oni'ilm Uoo of Thursday says:
"Ilonry (' Richmond, a local represen
tative i the World-Herald was cast
into pii.Mjii Tuesday forenoon upon tho
orders of tho chief of police. Rich
mond called at the jail for thu purpose
of looking over tho record of tho night
arrests und Chief Carroll ordered him
to leave. This Richmond rofusod to
do until ho had completed tho business
which called him thero. A short scrim
mago ensued, after which Carroll or
dered Jailer Caldwell to look Rich
mond up for croating a dlsturbanco.
Richmond submitted to arrest peace-
ably enough, but had hardly got com-fortabiy-tocatcd
in a coll when friends
appeared and bailed him out. Judgo
Babcock has sot the hearins of tho
ease for June 0, although no complaint
nas been filed as yet. It is understood
that the relations existing belwoen
Richmond and Chief Carroll havo boon
strained for somo time past."

ALMOST FORGOTTEN
Little Stuff Which Almost Escaped the Pub
lic EyeThroogh Carelessness.
A lady who was billed to uivo an el
ocutionary ontortainmont atone of our
ciiuruuoH on me evening oi may uutli,
had an nudienco of actually six. Ono
thing which was remarkable for Its ab
sence was somo oue to take up cash nt
tho door. It would havo looked a lit
tlo hotter if-tho socioty or church or
ganization under whoso aunpices sho
was giving tho ontoiltainment had
swelled tho attondaneovto at least a
dozen. Our town is full of strancruiH.
Whero thoy all come from and what
thoy all do for a living is a mystery.-
A great many of them aro canvassers
and thoy are prepared to sell anything
kopt by our own homo merchants from
a paper of pins to n dross pattern ot a
suit of clothes. Thoy will take your
order for a second hand pulpit or u
baby incubator. Ilioy should b'j sup
pressed, but. Ordinanco No. 15 pro
vides that thoy pay tho paltry sum of
ono dollar per day, but it is not col
lected. Now that wo havo had an ac
cidont from the carolcsa uso of a target
riflo in tho hands of somo careless boy,
wouldn't it bo a good idea to seo that
this dangorous weapon is ilono away
wiiu in tiiecitv. ami nlfo that oi "n ti
ger shooters." Bffoiu tho Fourth of
July arrives a proclamation by thu
mayor prohibiting tho uso of lire works
in tho city limits, othor thau those
usod by the fireman at thoir colobra
lion, would mako many residents
breathe oasier. It might s.ivo some-
ono from getting killed by a runaway
team or a disastrous tiro. If tbo peo
plo wish excitement tho old rookery
aud Noah's Ark might bo condemned
nnd ordered torn down on tbo Fourth.
Tho boys havo for months beon Irv

Now that Tommy has tnkon a trip to
Lincoln thoy might turn their kodaks

Thcso nro quito ns ancient nnd quaint

of n lot of girls taking such an interest
in u lot of cigarette smoking yellow

tocomo iruo, and tiriio will demon

tlco how patrintio hoiuo peoplo want
to bo on n cheap scale Wo never no
ticed it so much until wo saw out of
