" " A YEKV touching story of apprecia tion of a dog's usefulness and grati tude for his services conies from New Mexico. A man who got lost in tire mountains and found starvation star ing himself and his faithful dog in the face , cut off the dog's tail and ate it , and beino ; a humane man he * O thoughtfully gave the dog the bone. Louo CoLEuinoi : is delighting his English friends -with stories of his American visit , and amonc : them with * Cj this. Ho was at Mount Version with Mr. Evarls and , talking about Wash ington , said : UI have heard that he was a very strong maji physically , and that , standing on the lawn here , he could throw a dollar rio-lit across O the river on to the other bank. " Mr. Evarts paused a moment to measure the breadth of the river with his eye. It seemed rather a "tall" story , but it was not for him to belittle the father of the country in the eyes of a foreign er.'Don't you believe it ? " asked Lord Coleridge. "Yes , " Mr. Evarts replied , "I think it's very likely to be true. You know a dollar would go farther in those days than it does now. " RKJEAEKIXG on the analysis which disclosed the presence of a large per centage of fusel oil in the so-called "rock and rye" candy , the Brooklyn Eagle says : "It may be of interest to parents as well as our temperance agitators to know that the nervous derangements of dipsomaniacs are dis tinctly traceable to the effects of the fusel oil in their potations , and that it is from the ingredient that the medi cal faculty meets with the greatest difficulty in restoring tone to the shat tered system. One of its effects is to produce that appetite for strong drink , which in the majority of cases of chronic intemperance defies cure. The candy seller , therefore , is not only guilty of sellingan acute poison tcxvchilclren , but of the crime of per verting their moral nature and invit ing the evils that follow in the train of drunkenness. " Tin ; following dispatch , sent to Col. D. C. Dodge , general manager of the Denver and Rio- Grande rail way , last Monday , and received by that gentleman while out on the line , is about as brief and pointed as any communication of this character could be : You arc hereby discharged from service the employ of the Denver and llio' Grande railway company. F. LOVEJOY , President. 153- order of the board of directors. There is considerable music in Colorado railway atmosphere at the present time. The annual meeting of the stockholders will occur on the 7th inst. , at which time Mr. Lovejoy will either be sustained in this ac tion or respectfully requested to re sign. The chances are his summary dismissal of Col. Dodo-e will be ap- O * 1 proved. Col. Dodge represents the Palmer interest in the "Baby Road. " This faction received a very black eye last year when Gen. Palmer was com pelled to resign. The stockholders seem to be determined that all Gen. Palmer's friends shall also walk out of the service of the company. Re publican. OUR CORRESPONDENCE. INDIANOLA. Sheriff Miles from Frontier County was in our town , last night. Conic the 12th and help make officers for the agricultural society , this i'all. If you have any. * trotting horses in McCook , bring them down on the -Oth and you can get a race. Mr. Powers and family , the gentle man who is going to start a newspaper at Stockvillc , went up to that town Monday. The citizens of Indianola have raised $ -10 to fix up the county race track and you can all look for a good county fair , this fall. Our hotel under the management of Mr. and Mrs. Lynch is running nicely. They know how to treat you .when you atop with them. At our school meeting Monday , Dr. Shaw was elected Director , and C. S. Quick , Treasurer. Ten mills school tax was voted for all purposes. Our new Village Trustees arc J. IT. Short , C. D. Cramer James llothering- ton , Jesse D. Wclborn and A. E.

One half mile i. dash , $100 a side. Conic down and sec the iun. Mr. Peterson and family have settled in our town , lie has bought out Pharcs * harness shop and stock. Mr. Peterson is from Fillmorc county. We welcome them among us. Our school will open next Monday with two teachers. We arc to have two and one half months school this spring and summer , and six and one half months fall and winter term. Our school district has 130 children of school age. April 8th. A BENKELMAN. Our business men feel jubilant over the business prospects , after so long and dull a winter. Business is looking up and increasing rapidly. Our town has been quiet , this week , and we voice the sentiment of Bcnkcl- man's best citizens when we state that we hope the days of ruffianism arc past. There arc several sheep herds in this vicinity , which have become thin du ring the long and severe winter. There is considerable scab existing among them , but losses haven't been great , as sheepmen have made complete prepara tions for them. We have had a heavy snow storm , this week , and stock suffered worse than during any storm tins winter , owing to their being so poor. There has been considerable loss in young calves. But now the weather has turned fine , grass is growing nicely , and I think all dan ger of loss is over. ST. LAWRENCE. Benkelman , April 4th. CARRICO. Mi- . John Ryan and wife have moved out on their claim. Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Tate went to McCook , Wednesday. Mrs. Stokes , II. H. Troth and family were down to Carrico , Friday. Mr. and Mrs. E. X. Kceler have gone to McCook to get supplies. Mr. K. will also make final proof on his claim during his absence. Thursday was Miss Fannny Paxton's birthday , and in the evening , a numb.er of friends assembled at her residence and celebrated the event with a pleas ant social evening. Miss Lucy Braugh and Roger Braugh came home from North Plattc , last Saturdtion a weeks vacation , accom panied by Mis Carrie Bowen , and they with Miss Hallie and Ettic Braugh visited friends in Carrico , this week. Carrico , Xeb. PHILO. Ax exchange says there are 400- , 000.000 Christians hidden away in the world. Not so. They usually make their appearancb when Ii < rer- sell gets around.
