disaster at Denver , Sunday night , in
which a score or more people were killed
by an explosion of a boiler , the supposed
careless act of a drunken and incompetent -
I
tent boy engineer. The Gumry has
been a favorite stopping place with the
l trainmen running between here and
Denver , and although the names of a
number ofthe boys were on the register ,
! 1 yet none of them were in the house on
that fatal night.

Rev. D. L McBride has printed a card
declining to be a candidate for any office

honest-but useless-politician.

On last Thursday evening W. B.
Wolfe , formerly of our city and a relative
of President Franklin of the Citizens'
bank , but now assistant cashier in the
Bank of Benkelman , was united in marriage -

Jim Hupp has been a source of considerable -
erable anxiety to his friends , this week.
He has been suffering from an acute attack -
tack of nervous prostration superinduced
by his herculean and protracted efforts
to find and get into the Democratic
county convention at Indianola , Mon-
day.
THE MCCO0K TRIBUNE does not claim
to print "all the news in the best
form" , nor yet to be the "handsomest ,
most complete and original , and the
largest circulated" newspaper on two
hemispheres ; but it isthe most generally -
ly and generously quoted weekly in this
satrapy , and this glacial fact is indisputable -
putable if not complimentary.
The heavy rainfall in Kansas , this
year , has brought new converts to the
sub-soiling idea. Instead of the sub-
soiled lands washing away under the
pressure of a heavy rainfall , the water
readily found the immense reservoir beneath -
neath and the soil was not disturbed in
its place. On the other hand , soils similarly -
ilarly situated and plowed in the ordinary -
nary way were forthwith set in motion
toward the gulf of Mexico when the
heavy rains came. This is certainly a
good point scored in favor of sub-soiling ,
-Nebraska Farmer.
Long continued drouth is always conducive -
ducive to improved soil conditions. In
wet soils the salts are washed below the
feeding range of our standard crops.
When the soils become dry again for a
considerable period these salts are gradually -
ually worked to the surface. The deep
green of all crops in the west , this spring ,
was a striking evidence of the good effects
fects of last summer's drouth. With
only ordinary rainfall , this year , all
crops would have been way above the
average. There is a brighter side to the
picture in many of the trials of life , but
we are not always enabled to see it.-

The Russian thistle is dying out in the
Dakotas and this fact brings into prominence -
inence the theory advanced by some
able botanists that : The Russian thistle
belongs to a family of plants that thrive
only upon land possessing saline properties -
ties and when those properties are exhausted -
hausted the plant will no longer grow.
The sea coast is the only place where
this family of plants is permanent , and
while they may flourish on the new
lands of the west , which is more or less
impregnated with alkalies and other sa
lines , for a time , their duration will be
measured by that of the salts in the
land. This , if true , is both interesting
and important. It indicates that the
thistle may be made a source of benefit
rather than a menace in some parts o f
the west , where there is two much alkali -

That's What the Real Estate Excursionists -

GO BACK EAST ENTHUSIASTIC OVER
NEBRASKA CROP PROSPECTS.
CHICAGO , Ill. , August i6.-An extensive -
sive settlement of vacant agricultural
lands in central and western Nebraska
is likely to follow the trip of the eastern
and central states land agents through
that region. The party arrived in Chicago -
cage on its return trip this afternoon ,
having covered 2,300 miles of road since
Monday evening , going over the Burlington -
ton system as far north as Broken Bow ,
Neb. , west to McCook , Neb. , south to
Oberlin , Kan. , besides doubling up and
down the numerous branches of the two
lines in the central western portion of
Nebraska. The platforms and sides of
the Pullman cars were decorated with
sheaves of wheat , bunches of corn and
oats , stalks of corn varying in height
from twelve to fifteen feet , and potatoes ,
cabbage , beets and other vegetables of
mammoth proportions and which were
viewed by large crowds at the stopping
places in Iowa and Illinois.
Extending from one end ; o the other
of the outside of the center car was a
canvas bearing the announcement in
letters that could be read a couple of
blocks away that "Nebraska can feed
the world" . The excursionists , many of
whom have been in the land business
for a quarter of a century or more , were
enthusiastic over what they had seen
and heard in the territory once officially
described by Gen. John C. Fremont as
the "great American desert" and a sage
brush country , fit only for the homes of
the buffalo. Throughout the regions
covered , with a solitary exception east
of Lincoln , the corn in the ground was
prolific and apparently in the best of
condition , while the farmers who were
briefly interviewed at the numerous
stopping places told of the phenomenal
crops of small grain that had been
harvested , oats running from forty to
seyenty bushels per acre , spring wheat
twenty-five to forty , winter wheat thirty
to thirty-five. Some of the tillers of
the soil went so far as to declars that
their oats had actually run from ninety
to one hundred bushels.
The crop of alfalfa , which this year
is being extensively grown for feeding
purposes , is very large , and in the matter -
ter of size and of quantity the crops of
potatoes , cabbage , beets and other vegetables -
tables have beaten all previous records.
Most of the country inspected and in
which were some of the largest crops
recorded had been settled and developed
only within the last ten years , previous
to which it was wild prairie.
A Handicap.
There will be a handicap foot race at
the fair , on Thursday and probably on
Friday. The association offers a purse
of $20 , and parties in Indianola say they
will raise $20 more by subscription ; then
the entry fees ( $1 oo each ) will go into
the purse , making , we hope , at least $50
A handicap is something new in this
country but is very fashionable in the
east. Each runner will be placed according -
cording to his known ability , based on
past performances , so that all will have
an equal chance of winning ; the slowest
as well as the fastest. Anyone wishing
to enter will send 5o cts. to the Sup't o f
Speed who will send to him at once his
mark or place from which he will run
in the race. The other 50 cents he will
pay the day of the race. If he is not
suited with his mark he will only lose
his 50 cents , which will go into the
purse and he need not complete his en-
try. We have the promise , already , o f
six starters. Respectfully ,
W. A. McCook ,
Sup't of Speed.

The Curtis Fire.
The town of Curtis was visited by a
very destructive fire about one o'clock ,
Thursday morning , in which an entire
business block and the contents of the
buildings , as well , were consumed , absolutely -
lutely nothing being saved except what
comes through the safes. The fire was
discovered about one o'clock. A strong
wind prevailed , and inside an hour the
entire block was in ashes.
The loss will reach $ I6ooo , ; upon
which there is an insurance of less than
$6ooo.
The losses and insurances are divided
as follows :
W. W.Keith , merchandise , $4,000 ; no
insurance. Rees Heaton , $700 ; insurance -
ance $ too. J. S. White , law office and
contents , $1ooo ; no insurance. P. A.

while the loss is a severe one , the business -
ness men are talking of rebuilding and
resuming business as soon as possible.
The Frontier County State bank resumed -
sumed business , this morning , in one o f
their other buildings.
This is perhaps the severest loss that

MCCooK MERCANTILE CO.
One From Colonel Waft Mason.
Col. Valentine of McCook celebrated
his hundredth birthday by visiting the
Crow Indians in Montana. Upon his
return to civilization he told the following -
ing story on himself : He was watching
the festivities which the Indians were
enjoying , when a big aromatic brave ,
with a Harrison hat and a blue blanket
over his shoulders , approached him , and
seized his hand cordially and said , as he
looked at the burning sky above : "D-d
hot , isn't it ? " In speaking of it after-
. to some friends , the colonel became -
came sentimental and eloquent , and
said : "Here were we two , in all things
so widely different , thrown together for
a moment upon the shores of time , clasping -
ing hands and agreeing perfectly upon
one statement and then parting , never
to meet again on this side of eternity" .
At this point one of the hearers remarked -
marked : "And then you will both make
the same remark again" .
An Exciting Runaway.
There was an exciting runaway on.
Dennison and Main streets , Wednesday
morning. The runaways were a span of
unspeakable bronclios , the property of a
farmer named Breller , who lives about
twelve miles northeast o f McCook.
Mrs. Breller and a four-year-old son
were with the team. Mrs. Breller got s
out of the springwagon on west Deuni- k ;
son- street on sonic business. The bron- 1'
rhos became frightened at some trivial t ;
thing and started east on Dennison street Fi
at a break-neck pace , the little fellow "I
holding onto the lines , but to no pur-
pose. At the intersection of Manchester
Street they collided with an electric s
light pole , throwing out and destroying
a box or two of eggs which had been
brought into market. The little fellow
was also thrown down into the bottom
of the wagon. At the intersection of
Main street they collided with Tim Han-
nan's dray- wagon , which they overturned -
turned , but fortunately- not damage.
Thence they dashed up Main street. At
Dodge street they were finally' gotten
under control by Fireman R. A. Brown ,
who courageously climbed into the rear
end of the wagon , securing the lines and
circlingthe animals around to a stop.
Everybody on the street spontaneouslyy
applauded Mr. Brown's cool and nervy
action. The frightened mother soon
after arrived on the scene inquiring for
the little child who walked out of Knip-
ple's eating a juicy- peach , apparently
having entirely forgotten his perilous
ride of a few minutes before. Mrs. Brel-
ler was quite anxious to find some one
who wanted to trade bronchos. She
had no fear of getting a worse one. It
was an exceedingly fortunate affair.

Those Up-to-Date Girls.
"Yes , verily , " exclaims one of our I
i
naughty exchanges , "girls are of few iI I
days and full of mischief , and whosoever
er is deceived thereby is not wise. When
f
the fairone cheiieth gum with much
haste , and stampeth her pretty foot with
much vigor , then beware. She cometh ' + {
forth in the evening with low neck and
short sleeves , but in the morning she

lieth in bed while her mother hustletli
She eateth all winter of the devoted
young man's oysters , and partaketh with
glee of his sleigh rides , but when the
gentle spring-time cometh , she winketh
with the other eye and goeth with a new
beau" .
A Big Don't.
Don't dodge a bicycle rider , either
male or female. Stand still and the
rider will get along all right. Posts , trees ,
stones , etc. never dodge , and only beginners -
ginners ever run into them. If you see
a "bike" coming straight at you , don't
t
dodge , if you do it will confuse the rider.
If yon stand still in the "middle o the
road" or wherever you happen to be , the
rider will take care to give you plenty
of room ; but if you go to dodging to get
out of the way , the chances are that
there will be a collision and you will be ,
the worse hurt of the two. Therefore
don't dodge.-Wheel Talk.
The California Cold Process.
If you are looking for something with
which to preserve fruits , vegetables , and
liquids by the California cold process ,
see George P. Weick of South McCook.
He has the materials , directions etc. , for

preserver in the world. Call on or address -
