there was little or no complaint about

H H I I j ve Per cent ° f the business men doubt-
Hlt less find the burden of advertising for the
H 1 M. remaining seventy-five per cent of the

_ _ _ _ l 1 ? J should be represented in the local papers ,
H JJJl f no ni-tter how small the advertisement.

poorly provided with business and professional -

A Small Blaze.

store building on Main avenue , Monday

promptly to the alarm and soon had the
Sre under control , notwithstanding the

iatnage to the building , which is one of
the old frame buildings of the city , can
be repaired for perhaps $50. There is no
insurance. Mrs. M. E. Barger was using
the building as a kitchen , aud at the time

Her loss is inconsiderable. Her friends
ire congratulating her on the heroic way

PUBLIC SCHOOL ITEMS.
Minnie Jackson has entered the Eighth
grade.
x
r iss Jessie Bishop of the Ninth grade
entertained a company of her young
friends at home on last Saturday evening.
The evening was spent in social games ,
and1 all enjoyed a pleasant evening.
The kinetoscope and phonograph en- ,
tertainmeut , last Friday evening , drew a
full'house. The learned professor who
handled the instruments doubtless knows
more about Greek roots than he does of '
Rinetoscopes or graphaphones , hencejthe
entertainment was ' not up to expecta
tions.
During the morning recess , Tuesday ,
Master Walker , the young son of Depu
ty County Clerk J. A. Hammond , was
struck in the eye by a disk of lead , used
by the youths in a certain game , and was
quite.painfully injured. It was at first 1
thought the injury might be serious and
that the injury to the eye might be per1 1
mauent , but the little fellow is getting ;
along nicely at this writing and nothing
worae than a scar will likely result.
At the Opera House.
Saturday evening , February 27th , the
Guest quartet in the west the Wesleyans -
ans ; will give one of their superb con
certs. The boys have an enviable records -
ords for both quartet and solo work , and
it will be a mistake to miss hearing ;
them. One of the features of the pro-
gramme , which is of special merit , is .
"The Fallen Hero , " as sung by W. E.
Rose , the solo bass. The State Journal
says that the first tenor , Mr. Ireland ,
possesses one of the finest tenor voices. He
sings his high C with the greatest ease ,
md a peculiarly rich quality in his tones
rives them a charm that is irresistible. .
He also gave a whistling solo and re
sponded to an encore with a seemingly
impossible feat , whistling two parts at
jnce a duet with himself as it were.

Pay Your Delinquency. ]
I n view of the better times , and higher
prices for grain etc. , the publisher ex
pects those indebted to The Tribune
for subscription to make good their de
linquencies at once. During the con
tinued hard times and failures no effort
was made to force the collection of subscription - '
scription accounts , but now that the conditions - |
for the better '
ditions have changed greatly -
ter it is expected that these delinquencies !
will be promptly paid up. Statements 7
will be sent out to all in arrears and with '
the expectation that all will appreciate '
our past indulgence and respond at once. |

THE ST. FRANCIS BRANCH.
Masked balls were held at Ludell and
Danbury , St. Valentine's night ; both of
these functions were well attended and
successful.
On Washington's Birthday a bal
masque will be given at Blakeman in the
school-house hall , and the lovers of the
fantastic step will be there en masse.
The greatest event of the season will be
giveu in Atwood on the 4th of March ; it
will be a social event of the first class ,
and the dance-goers of Rawlins county
will be there to enjoy the best ball of the
season.
The new train No. 1 of the Burlington
brings the morning papers from Omaha
and Lincoln and they are read the same
day they are printed. Eastern mail
reaches this branch quicker.but the great
drawback is the delay of mail dispatched
from this branch to eastern points. There
is a delay of five hours at Orleans and
about nine hours at Oxford , in all four
teen , hours ate lost before mail moves out
of Oxford for the east. It is hoped that
this will be remedied and let us make
some connection with No. 6 at Oxford ,
and then this branch will have a first-
class mail service as well as express.
The Beatrice Creamery Co. has per
fected arrangements with five points
along the St. Francis branch for the
Erection of sub-creameries : Atwood has
the building enclosed , Herndon the foun
dation laid and Danbury , Wilsonville and
Beaver City are in process of erection.
The machinery and engines for the At
wood and Herndon creameries have ar
rived and soon the golden cream will
gather at these sub-stations for the par
ent creamery of Haskell & Boswell at
Lincoln. The farmers are taking a great
interest in this laudable enterprise and it
means much for the substantial prosper
ity of the Atwood-Orleans country and
the territory on the main line of the Bur
lington. Farmers will receive market
price-for cream and a certain per cent of
profit. This will help the farmers , mer
chants , the creamery and railroad com
pany and is the beginning of a new era
of better times and progression for this
short grass country.
Merchandise is pouring in from the
2ast is evidenced by the long trains of
loaded cars and the platforms ladeu with
the products that the merchants have
purchased to sell to the farmers along
this branch , those who have the money
with which to buy , the results of splen-
lid crops of wheat and corn , and the
profitable raising of stock. That the far
mers are prosperous is proven by the
heavy slock trains east-bound and the
herds of cattle and droves of swine seen
> n every hand along the peerless Beaver
/alley proven by the bins of golden
ivheat yet unsold proven by the many
parcels of groceries , dry goods and sun-
Iries for which spot cash is paid over the
: ounters of the enterprising merchants
n the stirring towns from Orleans to At-
, vood. Looking at the scenic panorama
: hat greets the eye up the Beaver between
Danbury and Cedar Bluffs one sees big
ed barns and newly-painted residences
jlistening in the ever-bright western sun
n snowy whiteness , and reminds one of
he prosperous pioneers that came here
n the early days and through sunshine
md storm tilled the soil , till today it
jlossoms like the rose.
Atwood , Kas. , Feb. 16. H.C.F.
Had a Banquet.
The Knights of Pythias had the pleas-
ire , Wednesday evening , of entertaining
: he grand chancellor of the order , H. M.
Boydston of Nebraska City. It was only
1 matter of regret that the attendance
was not larger , as ' the meeting was one
) f the most delightful held in a long
, vhile. The address of the grand chan-
: ellor was superb ; in fact there are few
f any order men in the state who can
: qual Grand Chancellor Boydston. He
ilways has the right word to say and
possesses the rare ability to say that
word in the most effective manner.
A banquet was enjoyed at the Burling-
: on dining hall after the regular session
jf the lodge. It was up to the high
standard of excellence al ways main taiued
sy Sir Robert.
The Kimball Piano.
Mrs. E. E. Utter and F. M. Colson
lave secured the agency of the celebrat-
: d and widely known Kimball piano ,
> neof the bestand finest makesof pianos
n the word , and they at this time wish
o direct special attention to the fact ,
rhey have opened special quarters over
he Bee Hive for the purpose of exhibit-
ng this instrument , and respectfully in
cite all who are interested in seeing and
learing a superb instrument to call.
Many farmers are now busy at work
putting in spring wheat in various parts
> f the county. The acreage will be unu
sually large , as many were too busy , last
all , to put in as much fall wheat as they
wanted to.
