A danc ing school, a mandolin club, a homo talent minstrel show, and rumor of a new brick hotel. Stand up for Red Cloud. When a fellow has to mako up his mind between getting married and go ing to the "pen" it is a mighty tough proposition and he don't know which ono to go up against. AJled Cloud mother has hit upon a novel scheme fer getting her daughters in early. Sho makes the last one ia at nighl get up first in the morning and got tho family breakfust. A young lady wants to know "if It is truo that kissing will euro freckles?" Wo don't know for sure but it is such a simple remedy that it is easily ti iod. Call after business houis. It is almost forgotten that Johnny Crans nnd tho rest of tho boys prom ised -vhon they relumed they would hiio n hull anil givn their experience nt C'ipo Nomo. Probably they ure wait ing until tho now nuditoiium is built. Now that tho evening passenger trains meet here it would bo n good idea for the 1). & M. to donnto a goed headlight or two to light up the plat form. It would only take a little ell nnd tbey would only havu to bo lit a BhorJ. time. Tho walking match was such a suc cess that it is still being 'talked ef. What's the matter with having an other one nnd eaqb business man who receives n benefit from a crowd being hero givo something from his stock as a prize, Tho women might be given a chance to wnlk too. From a Kansas town comos tho re port thnt n minister nnnnuncod from liis pulpit that ho would net preach another sermon until his buck salary hid been paid up to date. Ho is evi dently tin up to date minister. If ho goes out on a strike tho pnrlshouers nro wondering if ho will call out tho other preachers "on sympathy." The young men who stand around the church doors uu cutth, uufilug cigaretto smoke, watching people como out and smilingoii the girls in naomitlc sort of wny, will someday hangnround the gates of heaven, while the decent people go in, nnd tho first thing they knew, the gato is shut forovur and they will have to get accomodations else where. Sam Jones says thnt hu hoped thnt when tho whiskey trust got hold of whiskey tho pi ice would go up so high thnt a poor man could not nfford to drink it. Tho poor man cannot nfTord todiink whisky no matter how low tho price. It Is n ruinous hnbit for any mna, i ich or poor, and as useless and degrading as tho opium or morphine hnbit di Ink beer. In a publiu discussion between two candidates inKnntucky tho Hi st speaker hnd mude n masterly argument, and nt the closo of his efforts hu snt dawn nmid the enthusiastic npplauso of half ftholnige audience. But whon tho other fellow tose to speak ho simply said: "Will all yotno follows wot's go ing to veto for mo jluo mo at tho bar in tho room below?" And ho wns tho man who got the total vote of the en tire audioncu. Tho town of Geneva Is agitating tho Urination of a stock company for the building of an auditorium. Why can't Ucd Cloud do the samo? It could bo built with a stage and used as an oporn house. It could bo used for dances, lectures. public speaking, etc. Tho bus iness man who thinks such n building will draw additional Undo to tho town and has $200 tr ."00 to put into a good interest bearing investment should start the ball rolling. One man has already stated that ho would help such a project along to tho oxtont of $300. Tho levised book of rulos nboutto ho issued by tlm Burlington contains two rules which will bu now to the employes, although it has been understood for years thnt while theso rules wore not published in tho book they were effect ivo just tho samo. They follow: "Uso of intoxicants byflmplovcs while on duty Is prohibited. Their habitual use or the frpquontimg of saloons where they nro sold Is sufllcont cause for dis missal. "The uso of tobacco by omplows in or about station buildings or on passen ger cars is prohibited." While going homo tho other night one of our townspooplo was somewhat worked up by discovering through a win Jew what he thought was a fieak. It had all the appearancos of a two headed person, or two heads uu one pairaf shoulder. Ho wont cloier to examino tho supposed freak, and then the dog barked. When tho dog barked he soon discovered thnt the extra head had sheuldeis of its own, which had evidently boon a victim of temporary paralysis. Thu ou-lookur rubbed his eye i, said "huh", hugged u nenrby tiee, and thou started for homo on n dog trot softly whistling "Pull Down the Winds." A young mini callod on u young lady ono evening last week and was sonio wluit shocked when hu was told by her mother that film was out in tho kitchen washing dishes, and to go "right on out nnd boo her." llu went through a very neat dining room and into u kitchen equally neat and clean, and found her with her sleeves tolled up and working away at a dishpau full of dirty chinaware. Sho looked bo woll at tho task that hu nsked her to be his own on tho spot. This didn't happen in ucd Cloud. J he facts in tho case precludo the existence of such n thing Had it been hero the young lady's "maw" would bavo bees washing thu dishes and the young lady would have been in tho parlor playing the "pianno" or looking out of the front window for n chanco that went by, RoVal.
