If you have trouble to start the grass
on your lawn the following will start
aright : Level the lawn , sow the seed ,
rake in very lightly , and then cover
with an inch or two of coarse hay.
You can then turn the sprinkler on.
After the grass gets an inch high you
can rake off the loose hay. This method
is a sure one. Try it.
So you want to know where the flies
come from , do you , Lucullus ? Well
the cyclone makes the house fly , the
blacksmith makes the fire fly , the carpen
ter makes the saw fly , the driver makes
the horse fly , the grocer makes the sand
fly , the boarder makes the butter fly ,
and if that is not enough for you , you
will have to pursue your future studies
in entomology alone.
Window plants may be grown any
season of the year in the following man
ner : Soak a large piece of coarse sponge
in water , squeeze half dry and sprinkle
in the openings red clover seed , millet ,
barley , grass , rice and oats. Hang itin
the window where the sun shines a por
tion of the day and sprinkle daily with
water. It will soon form a mass of liv
ing green where even the clover will
bloom.
Dry Creek was the scene of two ser
ious accidents , the latter part of last
week. In the first instance a young son
) f Frank Cain , living on the head of the
jreek , fell and broke his arm , the same
happening on Thursday evening. The
following evening , at the Burtless
ranch , Oscar Russell was the victim of
i runaway , in which he received a bro
ken leg. Dr. Critser of the South Side
is in charge of both patients , who were
loing well at last account.

As a result of the "Turner fake"
t is developed that more than fifty Nej j
iraska newspapers are willing to accept
iquor dealers' boodle in exchange for
ocal and editorial matter ( without adver- •
ising marks ) prepared by the associa-
ion. Among the number are the Bee ,
Republican , Journal , Fremont Herald ,
jolumbus Telegram etc. The revela- :
ion is more or less appalling indeed.
t is almost incredible that so large a
iroportion of Nebraska papers should j
ie so "susceptible" and cowardly. <

The Triuune is pleased to announce
that agencies are at work which prom
ise a fourth of July celebration in Mc
Cook such as the upper valley has nev
er witnessed. To this end a public meet
ing was held in thu city hall , Saturday
evening. J. C. Allen was called to the
chair and L.W. McConnell to the secre
tary's desk. An executive committee ,
3ompoh > ed of J. 0. Allen , C. E. Shaw ,
George Hocknell , V. Franklin and Al
bert McMillen. was selected. On
grounds , C. E. Boyd , 0. W. Knights ,

L.V. . McConnell , J. F. Majors , J. F.
Forbes and Geo. B. Berry. Sterling P.
Hart , Esq. , was elected Marshal of the
day , with Col. J.S. Lellew as assistant.
The report of the committee on finance
was encouraging , almost enough money
being already pledged to make the cele
bration the most notable one in the his
tory of the valley.
THE WORKMEN ENTERTAIN.
There was a very pleasant gathering
of members and friends ol McCook
Lodge No. G7 , A. O. U. W. , Tuesday
evening , in the Phillips-Meeker hall ,
despite the threatening weather and
the following rain. Although many
were deterred from coming by the
prospective storm , and the programme
prepared was thereby circumscribed
greatly , yet the attendance was large
and an enjoyable time was had. Rev.
C. A. Maston , of Minden , made a .short
address , which was well received.
Strawberries , ice cream , cake , etc. ,
of a delicious sort were spread m the
banquet room of the hall , to which
ample justice was done.
All the circumstances considered ,
the Workmen are to be congratulated
upon the successful outcome of their
social , which will doubtless encourage
them to future affairs of a similar
nature. There is always much of profit
as well as pleasure to be gained from
such gatherings.

Children 's Day
Was observed , last Sunday evening ,
at the Congregational church , in a charm
ingly interesting manner. The edifice
was crowded to overflowing. The floral
and other decorations were elaborate ,
tasteful and handsome. The pro
gramme of singing , recitation , etc. , was
rendered in a very satisfactory style.
Children's Day is replete with interest
and suggestion , and is properly taking
rank among the notable celebrations of
theear. . May each recurring year
bring added zest and worth to the day.
Some fakir took about $175.00 out of
this town for putting a clockin the post-
office with advertisements on it. It is
astonishing how freely money is contrib
uted to line the pockets of a man who car
ries it away with him , when it could be
far more judiciously spent at home , and
thus help build up an enterprise from
whence comes much gratis advertising
and whose interests are mutual with the
interests of every business man , and the
town as a whole. This clock cost not
more than $50. Over two hundred per
cent , profit to this fakir while the news
papers must advertise at actual cost , and
at the same time be used as a bulletin
board free of charge for everything.

The Kniqhts Decorate.
The Knights of Pythias of our city observ
ed the order's first Memorial Day , Wednes
day evening , by marching to Longview ,
headed by the cornet band , and in uniform
and regalia , and there decorating the grave of
Samuel Fisk , the only deceased member of
Willow Grove lodge , with emblematic sprigs
of myrtle and with flowers. The scene was
a pretty and impressive one. Exercises were
also held in Castle Hall. Knight J. C. Allen
delivered an eloquent address which we give :
Brother Knights : I would indeed be lack
ing in appreciation if I did not feel grateful to
this lodge for the opportunity you have afford
ed me to say a few words on this occasion.
Today this growing society will observe its
decoration day by appropriate services
throughout this broad land and strew the
graves of its honored dead and modern heroes
with nature's loveliest tribute flowers.
Within the heart of man there has been plant
ed a strong feeling of fellowship , and in the
order of Knights of Pythias , friendship is the
corner stone upon which has been reared the
greatest structure of modern fraternity.
From amidst its ranks , many imbued with the
chlvalric sentiments of its association and
teachings hare given up their lives in behalf
of their brothers and fellow men. Through
out the country , are the resting-places of de
parted knights , over whose breasts are reared
tne perpetuating shaft of granite upon whose
tablets there is record of noble deeds and
life surrendered in act of chivalry , great as
any of recorded history. Embued with the
spiritof loving remembrance , thoKnights of
Pythias hold each year in the second week
of June appropriate memorial services.
One year ago Willow Grove Lodge had tho
ranks full , but last October death entered our
Lodge and one of our honored members was
called to bis loner home. Out west of our
beautiful little city lies buried the remains of
Brother Sam Fisk , and we leaveithis hall in a
few moments to pay the cemetery a risit and
strew bright flowers on his grave. These ex
ercises tend to keep green the memory of
Brother Fisk and at the same time bring us
all to a realization of the uncertainty of life
and the importance of living the life of a
true Knight. Who knows but on a pleasant
June day , next year , we mav assemble with
other graves to decorate. Brother Fisk was
born at Fort Plans , N. T. , March 30th. 1862 ;
resided in McCook for a number of years , and
was admitted to this lodge January 20th , 1SSQ.
At the time of the great railroad strike on
the Burlington. Brother Fisk left the employ
of the B. & M. and accepted a position on a
Colorado railroad and remained there until
his death which occurred October Sth , 1889.
At the time of his death this lodge took charge
the remains and be was buried by the Knights
hero present. When bis body was consign
ed to the cold earth and wo returned to our
different vocations , Brother Fisk was not
forgotten and we visit the cemetery as we
leave this hall to pay our respects to the de
parted. It is pleasing to know that each
bright June day as the years roll by our
Bro.Knlghts will place flowers upon bis grave.
