Sheriff Wclborn was in town , Wednes day , serving subpoena. on jurors for the coining term of district court. He was making his rounds of the county for that purpose. The faro dealers , chuck-luck men , tin horns , fakirs , etc. , of Hastings were largely represented here during the horse fair , and a meaner , tougher outfit it were hard to imagine. ANOTHER LIVSIIY BAKN Dunbar & Lcland are building a livery stable of immense proportions on McDowell St. It will be the largest in this part of the country , when completed. Last Thursday evening , the ladies of the Methodist church organized an 'aid society , with Mr * . T. B. McCracken , president , which will doubtless be a strong auxiliary to the church. The Ladies AW Society of the M. E. church will give an oyster supper on Wednesday cven5ngNovember4th,18S5 , at the church. Come everybody pre pared to do justice to an elegant stew. A residence 20x34 was commenced , this week , by Contractor Collins , for Mrs. Reid of Omaha , mother of Frank S. Reid of this place. It 'is being built on the hill S. B. of the Catholic church. The Heafy-Staysa. attachment-re plevin suits , which have been dragging through Justices Colvin and Fisher's courts , for the past two weeks , have again been continued , this time for 30 days. days.We We desire to impress it particularly upon the minds of the people that the celebrated Schubert Quartette will com mence their concert on the evening of the 28th at 7:30 : o'clock , central time , sharp. Messrs. Hess & Brewstercontractors , , are now at work on a residence for Mr. Deals on Madison street , north of Rev. Dungan's residence.

Mc Cracken , now has in stock by far the largest and most elegant line of watches , clocks , jewelry and silverware ever brought into the Republican Yalley. Don't fail to see his dazzling display , when you want anything in his line. : > . / Thegrand success of the horse fair , last week , is but another feather in Mc- Cook's plumage. We doubt very much if there is another town of our popula tion in the west that would be willing to offer $3,000 in premiums and guarantee and pay the same , for exhibitions of speed. THE TRIBUNE is of the opinion that our people will use greater caution in the future in signing petitions. One dose of inefficiency has no doubt effected an entire cure. The motto now is , "An ounce of "preventive is worth more than a pound of cure. " To avoid future mis carriages , more attention will be given these matters. Dr. Geo. H. Collins , Dentist of Lin coin , will visit McCook on October 26 27 and 28. Office at the leading hotel Come in as early as possible and make your appointments for tinic so as to be waited upon without being hnrried.

A NEW FIRM Dr. A. J.

Following- "ast upon the burning of the canopy , came two lamp explosions , last Friday evening. Herr Miller , it appears , by nistake , filled his lamps with gasoline nstcad of kerosene ; hence the whyncss of the undue haste with which he fired .he ignited lamps out into the street. The services at the Congregational church , Sunday evening , conducted by Rev. J. W. Kimmcl , of the Auburn Lutheran church , were but slightly at tended , by reason of the disagreeable- icss of the evening. The reverend gentle man delivered an interesting discourse on the subject , ' : Tht > Church. " We understand that it was the intention to organize a Lutheran church societybut no effort to that end was made. The unqualified success of the horse fair at this place , the latter part of the last week , is so generally and well cnown that we will not at this late date , enter into a lengthy account. It is a source of congratulation to all , the man agement of the association , and the cit izens of McCook , that success has crowned their efforts to make it the best lorsc fair ever held in Western Nebras- ; a , for such it was in every feature. The Glad Tidings Concert by the children of the Metbodist.Episcopal Sun day School , held in the new church , Sunday evening last , was an cncourag- ng success , and was enjoyed by a large ludience , considering the inclemency of the weather. The affair was conducted ) y Mrs. R. R. Vincent , and was given 'or the benefit of the S. S. Union and Tract Society of the church , to which the proceeds of the concert , over $5 , were given. KEY. Dn.-J. II. YIXCKXT , Chancellor of he Chautaumia Assembly and President of lieChautauiiuaLiteraryandScientificCfrcle , writes as follows regarding the Schubert Quartette , which appeared there in August ast to an average audience of six thousand ) cople : t ' 'The Schubert Quartette made what s usually called "a great strike" at 3hautauqua this season. They sang for two weeks nearly every day , and the peo- > le listened to them with eagerness and enthusiasm. Their REPERTOIRE is niar- 'elous. They are all that their manag ers claim for them. J. II. VINCENT. Plainfield , N. J. , Sept. 7 , 1885. Dr. Collins furnishes us some of the > est names in the state as reference in he shape of testimonials. SKIPPED The place that once knew A. Blanchard , Jr. , lately employed in the B. & M. telegraph office at this place , ' will in nil Jiunun probabilities know him no more forever. In this immedi ate connection it might be pertinent to observe that those who loaned him va rious amounts , during his short sojourn amongst us , will likewise know him no more for some time. His coming and his going , like the star in the nebula of Andromeda , was dazzling , we might say , paralyzing , especially his exit from this part ofthe moral vineyard ; and many there are who mourn the sudden ness with which he made himself scarce in these parts. On the stupendous sal ary of $50 per month , he bought expen sive furniture Air his apartments in the Batchelor re.-idence , lived high and stinted not. On Saturday , the fugitive went down to Red Cloud on a pass re ceived from Supt. Campbell , and while there stole two unlimited tickels to El Paso , Q'exas , returning here on No. 1 , and being joined at this station by his wife , both went to Denver , Sunday night. Messrs. McCraoken , Forbes , Bern- hcimer and others are out of pocket va rious sums , of money loaned and for goods sold. The railroad is after the gay young dead-beat and the probabili ties are that they will catuh him , when he will receive his merited punishment. and soft coal , best quality , at Hallack & Howard's lumber yard. HONOR ( ? ) AMONG THIEVES Thos. Crable , the gambler who was "too smooth" for the outfit which operated above Kendall & Son's restaurant , "dur ing the horse fair , was finally downed by the combination , after a trial which lasted all day Sunday and until about 10 o'clock the same night. The offense was drunkenness , and in default of the fine imposed and the accrued costs , amount ing in the total to about $13 , Crable was sent to the county jail tor four or Sve days. Crable , it seems , was the only gambler who could successfully cope with the above named outfit , who did their utmost to get rid of him. Crablu was repeatedly arrested , on the charge of being a gambler , at the instigation of the gambling combination , but re leased upon his expressed determination to retalialc , andhave the whole gang , who nightly held forth above Kendall's restaurant , in open and direct violation of lawarrested and duly punished. As stated above , the poor devil was finally downed , ( after having been thumped around pretty promiscuously , ) on the charge of drunkenness. It requires a very fine sense of justice indeed to ap- irecialc the position. iHF'Hard and soft coal , best quality , at Hallack & Howard's lumber yard. The first of the week , S. B. Brown sold his fine quarter of land , situated two and a half miles northwest of town , to Edwin L. Wheeler of Onarga , 111. , ather-in-law of J. II. Ludwick , for $1,000. This quarter is an exceptionally ine one , and its nearness to town , makes t the more valuable. and soft coal , best quality , it Hallack & Howard's lumber yard. The Academy was again well filled ast evening by an appreciative audience , which was much pleased with Mr. Buck's rendering of the character of Rip Van Winkle. The roving vagabond of the 3atskills was presented by the star with nil the humor and pathos which has made the character famous in years gone ) y at the hands of Mr. Jefferson and several other celebrated actors , and it is not too high praise perhaps to say that Mr. Buck's conception of Rip will bear ? avorable comparison with that of the most celebrated enactor of the part. The supporting company is excellent throughout. On Thursday evening Mr. Suck will appear as Joshua Whilcomb , n the play of that name , and those who lave enjoyed his Rip will thus have an opportunity to judge his capability as a versatile actor in an entirely different lersonatiou. Denver Democrat. and soft coal , best quality , at Hallack & Howard's lumber yard. THE TRIBUNE believes that it is the ntent of the law governing the delin- juent tax list publication business , that more than one section of the county hould know something about the mat er. As it now stands not more than lalf of the people of Red Willow coun- y know that the delinquent tax list has ever been in print. "Deeming it for he best interests of the county that it hould be published in The Courier , it vas designated as the paper. " Shades of the departed , Bro.
