NORTH DIVIDE NUBBINS ,
"Red" Bartlett hyked out of this
neighborhood , first of the week.
The wild currant and mulberry
time is near at hand , but the cream
and sugar are out of sight , as it
were.
Now that the assessor has been
around , a good many people . are
out Ipoking up stray horses and
the like.
Mike Steltzer expects to leave
in a few days for Colorado. He
has his good right eye on a job
near Denver.
"Long afore we knowed" we
we used to wonder what was meant
by "the man with an as to grind" .
Everything does come to him who
waits.
.
Several of the best plans of the
Divide match-making ociety have
been knocked in the head , so to
speak. Great changes , Gossie ,
great changes.
Several of the boys from this
place intend leaving for the east in
a short time. They have no locality -
ity in particular in view , but any
place for a change.
Not a few gardens and small
tracts of ground are being irrigated -
gated here and there on the Divide -
vide , and pumpkin pies will not
be an impossibility , later on. .
A number of young folks whiled
away a few hours at the pleasant
home of S. C. King , one evening
last week , enjoying immensely the
the ice cream and other refresh-
ments.
Frank Cashew will leave in a
week or so for Thayer county , his
former home. He will take a number -
ber of horses along with a view w
using them during the coming
harvest.
Fishing is about all the go now ,
and is carried on a good deal differently -
ferently from what it used to be.
The boys and old settlers hunt up
their last summer's clothes and
with them on wade and "wailer"
around in the creek and in a short
time have fish enough to fill an ordinary -
dinary wagon , and then some.
Of late several meetings of a
more or less harmonious nature
have been held at Box Elder to
supplicate for rain. Much difference -
ence of opinion evidently exists
and a good deal has been said and
re-said as to the amount of faith
one ought to have on such oc-
casions. The idea of praying
for rain may all be very well , and
it may not. At any rate it is decidedly -
cidedly painful to have the statement -
ment so often repeated that the
present dry weather is altogether
owing to the wickedness of the
people. Just what people ( except
the writer ) or where they are , no
one seems to know. Nebraska
people , and especially those in
Red Willow county , are "about as
good as they make 'em" .

wells he sinks. Leave orders at
Cochran & Co's. Prompt attention

1Feather dry and hot ; farmers
lying on their oars watching their
crops in the last agonies of disso-
lution. The a11'absorbing topic is ,
"where are we at , and what shall
we do to be saved" ?
Memorial services were held at
the Methodist hall where a large
audience enjoyed a sermon by
Rev. C. E. Campbell of Cambridge ,
Nebraska , pronounced by both
friends and critics to be one of the
best they ever heard on a like oc-
casion. Our people generally attended -
tended service and observed the
clay , with a few exceptions , who ,
like Grover , went fishing , among
whom was our barber and the ex-
principal of our public schools.
Preparations are also being made
to observe Memorial day , when
General James D. Gage will teach
us patriotism after his own style.
