John Rrush, one of our prominent farmers living about ten miles north of town, got badly bruised up Sunday by being thrown from his buggy.

Whistler, of the firm of Clifton and Whistler, real estate agents at Port Morgan, Colo., was in Red Cloud Tuesday morning on his way east.

(Jeorge Coatesof Superior, whose son Milton had a horse badly cut on the 'barb wire here three weeks ago, was up from Superior Monday to get the horse and take it home. Charley Piatt, at whose auto the horse became scared, bore the expense of caring for the horse. "Out in Nebraska they're making cheap gas from corn cobs, hence the renewed hopefulness of Mr. llryan", says the Itoston Transcript. For the benefit of the Transcript, we will state that the gas produced is superior in quality and smell to that produced in the home of the "Itoston baked". In order to accomodate the crowd that will visit the Chataucma next week, the people of Red Cloud must open their homes for their com fort. If any one has a room or two to let for that time or could take a few j to board, let Paul S. Dietrick know at once. This big crowd must be treated white. I The big tent, 120x00, will be crowded I the entire time the coming ten days of the Chataiuiim. This is not a street j fair, but an L-ducatioual treat. It is a big step for Red Cloud to take, and everyone should turn out and help J make it a success so that it will not ! have to go back to the street fair again. For our own part we would rather see our home nine defeated than have them win the game with a lot of im ported players. In the old days every body took pride in the home team and sympathized with their victories and losses. Xowadays it is the fashion to roast the home team on every possible occasion John II. Walsh, formerly editor of the Red Cloud Nation, has begun the publication of a labor paper at Nome, Alaska. 'Mack" has for some time been the national organizer of the In dustrial Workers of the World, and a few months ago, accompanied by his wife, went to Alaska to organize that territory. Mrs. Walsh was formerly Miss Dollie Held. The Franklinites are making big preparations for the Nebraska and Kansas Interstate Reunion, to be held in that city August 20 to 21. The peo ple of Franklin always send a good delegation to Red Cloud to all our en tertainments, and no doubt the com pliment will be returned reunion week. We know of several families who are already planning to attend. There will be an all-day Sunday & Chaney, Scho )1 rally at the Indian Creek church next Sunday. A good program has been prepared and everybody is invited. An effort will be made to have the Mcnelcy-Robley Male Quartet sing in it It.. .. !.., !...! ! .. .1.

Thomas returned Tuesday morning from a trip to P.ird City, Kan., where he has recently purchased a quarter section of land. Mr. Thomas brought back with him some fine sam ples of winter and macaroni wheat, as well as oats that were grown in that neighborhood. He also had some red clover which lie plucked from the lawn at the depot, probably the product of seed thrown out by immigrants. The Meneley Robley Male Quartet will give two sacred concerts in Red Cloud next Sunday: At the Cngrega tional church at 3 p. m.. and at the Union meeting at 8. The quartet is one of national reputation, having sung over the union In Cliautauquas and lyceum courses. They had a few open dates before a line of western Cliauta quas. The first tenor is a Harvard man with a brilliant record in New York operas. His voice ranges two and one- half octaves. Robely, the reader, has a wide reputation. Urton, the pianist, is a splendid barytone soloist, and Kimsey, basso, is exceptionally good. At both concerts a silver ottering will be taken. JAILED FOR DEBT. At Ono Time the Law Was Severo on Those Who Owed Money. In nearly every country until com punitive! recent times debtors have been subject to Imprisonment. After tho panic of ISM 101,000 writs for debt were Issued in England. In 1S30 7,000 persons were sent to London prisons for debt, and on Jan. 1, 1S10, 1,700 persons were held for debt In England nnd Wales, 1.000 In Ireland mid less than 100 In Scotland. From time to time modifications In the laws governing the Imprisonment of debtors have been made, so that fewer debtors are imprisoned for tills crime each year. In 1820 there were 3,000 debtors In prison in Massachusetts, 10,000 In New York, 7,000 in Pennsylvania, C.000 In Maryland and a like proportion in oth er states. Many of these persons were Jailed for debts of $1. The law pro viding for the Imprisonment of men who could not pay their debts was shown to be Impracticable by statistics taken from Philadelphia, where In 1S2S there were 1.0S3 debtors Imprisoned for debts amounting to $2.",000. The ex pense of keeping theso persons In con finement was $302,000, which was paid by the city, and the amount recovered by this method was ?20.". Imprisonment for debt was abolished by congress In the United States In 1833, though this measure was not fiilly enforced until 1839. New Yoik Tribune. WIFE OR CHILD, WHICH? An Ingenious Problem With Two In teresting Equations. ' Some time ago George was bragging nbout never having told a lie, and he said ho never would. An Irishman, hearing the assertion, made a wager with George that he could make him tell n lie in two minutes. So Pat began: "Supposing you nnd your Httlo child nnd her friend were out In a boat for a row; the boat sud denly cnpalzed, nud you were nil thrown Into the water. .Now, which child would you save?" asked Pat. "Well," answered George, "under tlio circumstances I should save my own In preference to any ono else's child." "Very good," answered Pot. MXow, suppose you and your wife nnd child were out for a row and the boat again capsized. Now, which of them would you save, your wife or your child?" After a thoughtful pause, George an swered that he would save his wife. "There you ore," cried Tat. "You said at first that you would rather sa e your child In preference to any ono else's, but now you say that you would save your wife, who Is somebody else's child." Pearson's Weekly.
