E. church arose in church prayer meeting last evening and report ed that some of the best men in the town of Culbertson had recently been converted at a revival there. Among the number was the editor of the Sun , ; < and you know , " she continued ' 'all of you , wlat a hard thing an editor is to convert. " McCook has been experiencing a famine - ine in the matter of theatrical enteitain- ments , and the inevitable feast comes apace. Commencing next Thursday evening , the 26th inst , the Chicago Comedy Co. will play three nights. The Tennesscans will occupy Friday even ing of the following week , and Hcy- wood's Mastodons will probably appear shortlv thereafter. The editor of the Pecatonica , ( III. ) Times writes for information concerning the death of one , Frederick W. Butler , and , encloses the following notice : " The following' death notice we copy by spec ial request from the Weekly Wisconsin , pub lished nt Milwaukee : BUTLEIl At McCook , Neb. , December 24 , Frederick W. Butler , aged :50 : years. The wife of Frederick W. Butler is very desirous of gaining information concerning her husband's death , and any data will reach that lady by same being reported at this office. If the people of McCook and vicinity want a first-class grist mill planted at this place , an opportunity now presents itself to encourage such a project. We have a letter from an Illinois gentleman , who wants to put up a mill here , and he guarantees that the mill ( new process ) will be filled with first-class machinery , and the establishment to be No.l in ev ery respect. A gentleman will be in town next week , who will call upon our business men in the interest of the pro ject. Should anyone desire in the meantime - -time to ascertain anything concerning the matter , address J. W. Watson , Farmington , 111 , " A very painful accident befel Mrp.J. 0. Fisher , wife of J. 0 , Fisher of the State Journal Co. , Monday afternoon , while it passenger on 40 , between Cul- bertson and McCook. In passing" John Farley's place , just cast of town , one of the boys , who was engaged in digging a well near the track , thoughtlessly threw a clod at the passing train , unfor tunately striking the window where Mrs. Fisher was sitting. The stone passed through the window and hit the lady in the eye , cutting quite a gash. Eleven smaller gashes were made by pieces of glass , two pieces lodging in her eye. Upon reaching this station medical aid was summoned , and the particles of glass extracted from face and eye. Mrs. Filler's nerves were considerably shattered for the time by the accident. They wended their way homeward , Tuesday. The matter was .satisfactorily settled by Mr. Farley. Although the accident was unintention al , it should nevertheless be a life-long lesson to the boy , who feels sorry in deed for his thoughtlessness. It appears to be somewhat uncom fortable to life and limb to be found out late , these nights , without being able to give a satisfactory ( ? ) account of one's self and to do .it in a hurry. Last Thursday evening , an individual whose business requires his being out at al most all hours of the night , happened to come down one of our public streets behind a young couple , ( male and female were the } ' ) and being accosted by the male as to his particular business , and failing to give a satisfactory response , the male proceeded to polish off the first-named individual in the highest style of the pugilistic art stretching the f. n. i. on the ground and tramping on him. An eye-witness to the affair gives our reporter the facts , and further deposes that the assailant was rather previous in his conclusions and his at tack on the individual , whom he accused of following him and companion.

Troth tendered his resig nation to be considered at next meeting of the Commishioners. AN eastern paper speaks of roller skating in the follo'wing commendatory manner : "Its fascinations are indescrib able , and , unlike other sports , it is high ly recommended by physicians and cler gymen. It has proved seriously detri mental to liquor and billiard saloons. The youth of to day , instead of spend ing his evenings in playing "pool for the drinks , " can now be seen wheeling around the skating floor with some lady companion , and instead of coming from his sport with callow and whitened com plexion , he emerges from his exhilarat ing exercise with the glow of health in every feature. * ' We received a pleasant call from C. P. Russell and J. P. Mathes , Monday. Mr. Ilussell informs us that he will commence the erection of a feed store on the lot adjoining Spanogle & Ivinker on Main Avenue , the latter part of the present or first of next week.

To-day is the 21st anniversary of the Order of Anights of Pythias. The first Lodge of the Order having been institu ted February 19th , 1SG4 , in Temperance Hall in the city of Washington. D. C. The Order is strictly of American origin , iounded on American oil at a time when a terrible civil war was wag ing , and the need of an organization having for the foundation of its princi ples Friendship , Charity , and Benevo lence , was veiy apparent. The rise and progress of the Order of Knights of Pythias is a modern wonder in the so cial world ; it being now the third Order of its class in numercial strength in the world , having a membership in round numbers of 175,000. The Lodges of the Older arc in all states and territories of our nation , and have been wafted across the waters of the Pacific to the Hawaiian [ slands and crossed the borders and found lodgement in the British provinces. Hon. Jno. Van Valkenburg. Supreme Jhancellor of the world , has declared this Pythian Day at the World's Expo sition in New Orleans ; and in an address to the Order desires to have as many members present as possible. Numer ous lodges over the country have been making elaborate preparations to cele- > rate the event. Concerning the Order , the Manual and Text Book contains the following : We strive in the battle of life to uplift the fallen ; to champion humanity : to ) e the true friend of man ; to be his ; uide and hope ; his refuge.shelter and defence ; softening down the asperities of life ; subduing party spirit : and. by the sweet and powerful attractions of friendship , charity , and benevolence , nnding in one harmonious brotherhood , nen of all classes and all opinions. The Order is the hand maid of Religion ; and ' 'Like a tree planted by the rivers of vatcr that bringeth foith his fruit in lis season ; his leaf also shall not with er ; and whatsoever he doeth shall pros ) er. " It embraces all thaftends toward 'peace on earth , and good will toward man. " A KMGHT. For Sale ! A new John Deere Sulky Plow for sale at Lytle Bros. Very cheap. WHETHER General Gordon lives or is dead is a question that still aoitates the mind of England and the civilized world.
