THE McENTEE HOUSE.
On Monday evening of this week , the
McEntcc House , frequent notice of the
progress in the erection ofwhich has
appeared in THE TRIBUNE from time
to time , was thrown open to the public ,
though not yet fully completed in every
detail. Tho McEntcc is a fine two-
story brick structure , 52x100 feet in
dimension , .with a one-story addition ,
24x30 $ for kitchen. The office and din
ing hall are both large , well-lighted and
finished throughout in good style , ( as ,
indeed , is the entire building. ) the for
mer being 2Sx'G feet dimension , while
the latter is as to size 23x50 feet. The
hotel contains 32 sleeping rooms , of an
average size of about 12 feet square ,
and are in the main large and comfort
able. Large sample rooms have been
provided on the basement floor , 28x36
feet. The McKntee in all its appoint
ments is first-class an'd a credit to our
city , and under tho management of Mr.
McGee is desti.-cd to make one of the
most popular hostelries in the Valley ,
as the success of the B. of L. E. ban
quet , which was given .so auspiciously
at the McEntee on the opening occas
ion , indicates.
WILL BUILD.
o
P. C. O'Brien , a B. & M. "king of
the road , " has purchased two lots on
the hill and will shortly commence the
erection of a dwelling 28x30 feet , with
a wing 16x24 feet , the same to be
complete with porches , bay windows ,
and other ornaments , and will make ,
when finished , one of the cosiest , homes
in the city.
E. F. Day of the postal service has
also purchased two lots in the second
addition to the city and will commence
the erection of a residence thereon at
once.
Tn addition to the above , Mr. Golfer ,
the Lincoln Land Co.'s agent , informs
us that there are thirty-one other build
ings , both Imsiness and residence , con
tracted on the company's books to be
built within the next six months. The
probabilities are that most if not all , of
these buildings will be erected , while
others are assured , as the company is
selling no lots without the building
clause attached.
Among the most successful and pros
perous stockmen of our county is A. W.
Core } ' , who owns a fine river ranch
about three miles southeast of this
city. This winter Mr. Corey has been
following somewhat different tactics.
He moved over 200 head of cattle and
25 head of horses over on to the Beaver ,
where hay and corn are more abundant ,
and with care and attention , together
with ample food and water , he has win
tered the entire number without the
loss-of one , and his bunch looks as well
now as they did upon entering the win
ter. The changing seasons have made
this course necessary , and Mr. Corey's
success , this winter , fully demonstrates
its wisdom.
We arc credibly informed by parties
in the city that II. C. Rider will return
to this city early in March. The fol
lowing from the Crete Vidette throws
some additional light upon the subject :
J. C. Smith received a business letter from
II. C. Hitler , yesterday. J Ie was in Washing
ton City riiclit side up with care , attending
strictly to his own business. He directed him
to address his answer to Owego , Tioga coun
ty , Xew York , the home of his birth , > vhcrc
lie expects to visit for a few days. He will
be in Crete about the first of March , and will
doubtless be very anxious to have his so-call
ed friends tell him all about his escapade
through the country with another man's wo
man. '
An engine and caboose were derailed
at the west end of the yard , Sunday af
ternoon , just as No. 40 was pulling into
this station. The accident was occa
sioned by the carelessness of the switch
man , who threw the switch from under
the approaching engine. The locomo
tive and car were promptly restored to
the track , the pilot alone being slightly
the worse for the accident , while No. 40
was" delayed about an hour. A large
crowd witnessed the process of restoring
the locomotive to its native element.
Property-owners in South McCook
are complaining bitterly about the horde
of soiled tloves , which infest that local
ity , depreciating their property , etc.
Some of these owners are offering their
property at what they can get for the
same , being Avilling to sacrifice most
anything to get out of the pestilential
region. Justice , where art thou ?
'
THE B. OF L. E. BALL.
' As wji < 5 confidently expected , the first
annual bill : of the Brotherhood of Loco
motive Jhigincers of this cit } ' , which ,
occurred at the Opera Ilall on the even
ing of Washington's birthday , was in
point of numbers the most extensive
and successful socjal event that has ever
transpired in this city. The Opera Hall ,
which was handsomely and bcfittingly
decorated for the occasion , with ever
greens , red , white and blue bunting ,
appropriate banners , mottosscenes , etc. ,
was crowded to its utmost capacity , it
being estimated that there were between
four and five hundred .guests present ,
including many invited guests from
various points on the B. & M. between
Lincoln and Denver ; and a general good
time was enjoyed by the large company ,
considering thr terribly crowded condi
tion of the hall , in so much that the
dancing was continued until between
four and five o'clock in the morning ,
when the weary dancers reluctantly dis
banded. ' TIII : IJAXQUET.
Prominent among the features of the
affair was the banquet at the McEntee
House. Ample arrangements had been
made for the occasion , a .bountiful re
past was spread in good taste and style ,
and served attentively and with all expe
dition possible. Over four hundred
people partook of the feast , and many ,
probably one hundred persons , on ac
count of the lateness of the hour , left
the house without their suppers. Mr.
and Mrs. McGee are to be congratulated
upon the successful manner in which
they fed the hungry multitude , which
besieged the door of their dining hall
the continuance of the
during banquet--
some four hours.
A HAPPY HIT.
The social and supper given by Wil
low Grove Lodge No. 42 , Knights of
Pythias , of this city , at the Opera Hall ,
last Friday evening , commemorating the
twenty-third anniversary of Pythianisin ,
was the most felicitous affair of the
kind that has ever transpired in our
town , and will long remain , to those
participating , among the brightest or
naments which adorn memory's hall.
The evening's program embraced music ,
speeches , card playing , etc. , and the
occasion was gracefully rounded off by
an elegant repast , for which the ladies
areto ! be complimented and thanked.
