COURT NOTES.
Reporter Maher is on hand and
spreads a "halo of glory
about
himself as ho pictures the late
political struggle in the stato and
Douglas county. John narrowly
escaped having his oyes scratch
ed out when he suggested to one
of tho lady witnesses that she
would have to talk so ho could
hear her.
Among the attorneys present
from out of town we noticed
Messrs. Hamilton, Sullivan,
Smysor, Mitchell. Berry, Nolo
man, Siinonson, of AUianco,
Fanning and Dnley of Crawford,
Habegger of Chadron, Kaley of
Omaha, Pettis of Lincoln, and
Swahury of Wahoo.
Tho lawyers aro a jolly set of
fellows and seem to have all en
joyed tho term of work. Kaley
of Omaha Mild Maher are con
ceeded to bo the story tellers and
some of their yarns would come
very nearly having the desired
effect on Engineer McDermott.
Iko Marshall came up Thurs
day with a very sober face but
his complete exoneration of the
charge against him sent him
home with a smile like a half
moon.
Tho divorce caso of Mrs. Fan
nie Huston vs Dean R. Huston
drew the only crowd during tho
term. The evidence only proved
an incompatibility of temper and
it seems that these young people
should have been happy together.
Neither one of them had a caso
against tho other. The caso oc
cupied all of Thursday afternoon
and evening.
Co. Treasurer Miller and Mr.
Sherwood were in attendance at
court Thursday.
Engineer "Pete" McDermott
made an everlasting "stand in"
at tho county seat. If Pete
would run for a county office next
fall we will guarantee him the
vote of every man, woman and
child in Hemingford.
John Sexton ontertained tho
boys Thursday with a compiicat-
ed key. John says its the key
to the whole situation, lie is a
pleasant gentleman aud is always
a welcome caller at the county
sear.
Many stringent criticisms were
hoard relative to the escape of
the cattlo rustler, Ira Nelson.
It is reported that Reporter
Mahor is thinking serious' y- of
engaging in thb brewery business
at Omaha. John you ought to

Rev. Father lirophy, tho first
Catholic priost of Chadron, left
last weok for Ponca, Nebraska.
It is with' (loop regret that the
members of Father Brophy's par
ish part with their old pastor He
came to northwestern Nebraska
olovon years ago when the country
was now and sparsely settled; the
churchriwas without organization,
Inu. ho went to work with enoigy
and as'a result of oleveu years of
ceaseless toil ho loaves a fino
church property in this city and
a flourishing congregation. Bo
sides ho erected churches in Sheri
dan, Box Butte and Sioux counties,
nine in all. No one has b.enmoro
closely identified with tho early
history of this country than he,
aud his kind heart and progressive
spirit 'have endeared him to the
hearts of his people. Chadron
Sigiial-Rccord?r.
Father Brophy has a host of
fricfids in this county who wish
him success in his now homo.
