EIGHTEENTH YEAR McCOOK , RED WILLOW COUNTY , NEBRASKA , FRIDAY EVENING. APRIL 13. 19OO NUMBER 48
Masons at Atwood , Kansas.
A special car was run up the Orleans
and Atwood branch , last week , to ac
commodate 87 Nebraska Masons from
Melrose lodge No. 160 , Orleans ; Beaver
City lodge No. 65 ; Fidelity lodge No. 51.
David City ; Valley lodge No. 157 , Wil-
sonville ; Uoaz lodge No 185 , Danbury ;
Arapuhoe lodge No 100 ; Indianola lodge
No. 127. There were also present breth
ren from Norcatur lodge No 317 ; St.
Thomas lodgeNo 306 , Colby , Kansas ;
Gore lodge No. 824 , Illinois ; Norton
lodge No. 199. Never in the Masonic
history ol Northwestern Kansas has such
a royal and hospitable time been en
joyed. The freedom of the city of At
wood was tendered the brethren and by
them fully enjoyed. D. O. Bye , W. M. ,
and Albert Hemming , secretary of At
wood lodge No. 164. A. F. & A M. ,
met the visiting brethren at Wilsonville
and escorted them to Atwood At Herndon -
don the Herndon cornet band boarded
* the special and accompanied the Masonic
fralernity to their destination. The
Herndon band is counted among the
best in Northwestern Kansas
At Atwood a large delegation from the
5odge of that place and a great number
of citizens were at the depot to greet
the visitors ; cairiages and vehicles in
abundance were in waiting , subject to
the will and pleasure of the followers of
King Solomon. The procession to the
city resembled one of a gala day at a
fair.
fair.After supper all members of the craft
formed a procession and headed by the
Herndon band marched through the
streets of the city. It was an inspiring
spectacle and a conspicuous gathering ,
all keeping step to the inspiring music ,
with blue ribbons fluttering in the
breeze , as they marched along the thor
oughfare , representing over a dozen
lodges from three great states. ( The
blue ribbons were souvenirs from Atwood
lodge )
Promptly at eight o'clock in the even
ing the lodge was convened and degrees
were conferred on three candidates in
due and ancient form , after which the
lodge marched in a body to the court
house , where a splendid banquet was
served. The tables were arranged in
the form of a double square , with a seat
ing capacity of 95. Too much credit
cannot be given Frank E. Munger for
the perfect arrangements and the mas
terful execution of every detail of the
banquet , which was a marked success
and well worthy of cities that number
their population by thousands. The
Herndon band , under the leadership of
Mr. Hayes , the Burlington agent at that
place , rendered suitable music , the
while. The occasion was especially
honored by the presence of Grand Junior
Warden N. M. Avers of Beaver City , of
the grand lodge of Nebraska ; Mayor-
elect W. H. Banwell of Orleans ; M. P.
Pierce of Wilsonville and others , who
treated the craft to eloquence and in
struction. Webjosselyn of Orleans , the
Burlington trainmaster in charge of the
special , was in evidence , with a counte
nance all agleam with good fellowship.
The menu served contained all the
substantial and delicacies calculated to
appeal most fetchingly and compelliugly
to the inner man , in which it was dis
tinctively successful.
The event will long remain a pleasant
remembrance to the visitors , and no page
in the history of Atwood lodge will ever
be written in brighter and more resplen
dent colors and lettering than this
memorable occasion when Nebraska
and Kansas Masons met in good fellow
ship , with brotherly love , hospitality
and fraternal feeling depicted on every
countenance and in evidence in every
act. H. C. F.

Judge Thayer of the Uuited States
circuit court has decided that the Bur
lington must accept and haul the car of
implements offered it at Council Bluffs
by the O. & S. L. The Burlington re

Neb. , because the freight originated at a
point on the Burlington system. The
Burlington gets full local rate for the
service.
The training-school system inaugurat
ed by the Burlington for its shop men ,
engineers and firemen is proving a great
success. Afternoon meetings are held
at the principal division points once a
inonth , and there is a round-table dis
cussion of the best methods of work.
The newer men unconsciously absorb
the I experience of the older ones , and all
gain some knowledge from points
brought out in discussion. A recent sug
gestion of one fireman has caused the
adoption of a new style of oil can , with
the result that two pints of oil go nearly
as far as five pints formerly did. The
work accomplished through the train
ing-school system is another illustration
of the fact that Burlington men consti
tute "a force of men , thoroughly disci
plined , and all pulling the same way. "
Railroad managers are coming to ap
preciate more and more the value and
necessity of temperance among railway
employes , and each succeeding year we
are encouraged and delighted to observe
the fact that the temperance qualifica
tion in railway employes is being given
greater force and importance by the offi
cials. Safe railroading and "lushing"
are impossible. In no human service is
the demand more imperative for so
briety and clear-headedness and a strong ,
manly heart. Railway managers are ex
hibiting fine judgment in this matter ,
and employes will show good horse sense
by falling into line with this great move
ment for temperance in the service.
Those who fail to come up to the dignity
of the situation will in due time be seek
ing other employment.

made with one of the new Baldwin piston
valve engines , No. 348. The engine was
in charge of Engineer James Duffy and
Fireman A. J. Bignell. Conductor Bel-
knap was in charge of the train. The

fast running. The regular running time

An April Storm.
The snow-storm of Tuesday morning
will cause April loth to be remembered.
The fall of snow was preceded by a high
and sustained cold wind from the north
east , and when the beautiful began to
cover the earth , Tuesday morning , bliz
zard tendencies soon developed , and for
a while indications were not lacking for
a severe and unusual snow-storm. About
noon , however , there was a decided
change , the snow stopped falling , the
wind died away , and the temperature
moderated noticeably ; and by Wednes
day evening most of the .snow which
wss a number of inches deep had disap
peared in the ground.
The snow came as a prized blessing to
the farmers , whose wheat fields will
greatly profit from the moisture and en
richment of the soil. And it fortunately
can be added that the shortness of the
storm saved stock from considerable suf
fering or loss.
Valley Congregatlonalists.
The Republican Valley Association of
Congregational churches met in Cam
bridge , Monday night , Tuesday and
Wednesday of this week. Notwithstand
ing the severe weather , the attendance
was fair and interest strong. The dis

other matters of interest and moment
were livelj' and instructive.
John Doane , son of the founder of
Doane college , the well known Congre
gational school at Crete , delivered an
address on Monday night , and Rev.
Harmon Bross spoke on Wednesday
afternoon. Both were excellent efforts.
All in all , the gathering is described
as having been well worth while.
A Masonic Event.
McCook Masons are preparing for an
event , next Tuesday evening , and have
invited a number of neighboring Masons
to celebrate with them. It is expected
that a score or more of visiting brethren
will be present and plates will be laid
for about sixty at the banquet which
will follow the regular lodge exercises.
THE TRIBUNE understands that the
affair will be "finer than silk. "
All in One Volume.
C. C. Northrop has been assisting in
County Clerk Green's office , this week ,
bringing up all of the back taxes into
the 1899 tax book. This will be a great
convenience to the public.as by referring
to the 1899 book now all the taxes due
can be seen in one book , and the neces
sity of looking over a dozen or more vol
umes will be obviated.
Their Last Dance.
The Fortnightly club will hold the
concluding dance of the series on next
Friday evening , the 2oth. It will be a
complimentary affair and a limited num
