THE FALLS CITY TRIBUNE.
Vol. Ill FALLS CITY , NEBRASKA , FRIDAY , JULY 13 , 1906. Whole No. 13i
Celebration at Rulo.
Another Fourth of July has
followed other Fourths into th e
past , and the celebration at
Rule , is Jilso past but it was a
very nice celebration. The
crowd was large and orderly.
The programme was good and
carried out with care.
The band boys furnished ex
cellent music and the Glee club
n deserve great credit lor the
pleasure their music added to
the occasion. Also several
solos Avere rendered , which in
the writers opinion can not be
beat on the 4th of July or any
other time. A recitation was
also well rendered.
John Wiltse of Falls City
spoke to some length , on Inde
pendence , which showed thought
and care in thp preparation.
Following Mr. Wiltse , Superin
tendent Oliver delivered a very
pleasing talk along educational
lines and while all his talk was
appreciated , one thought was
particularly fine , and that was ,
that what we need more of is
moral education. The last
speeker was F. E. Stump of
Lincoln , his theme was Frater
nity , but his talk was cut short
by the black clouds which were
overcasting the sky , the crowd
scattered and for a while it
looked like the celebration was
ended , but after a nice shower
which cooled the air and laid
the dust , the people began to
meet for the fireworks and other
pleasures , which the evening
promised.
Several balloons were sent
up , music and fireworks con
tinued until a late hour. Mr.
Stump gave a public exhibition
ol the Screen work of the A. 0.
U. W. and a grand ball ended
the program for the day.
The large crowd seemed to
enjoy the day , and a nicer , more
orderly crowd would be hard to
find than was entertained in
Rule that day , and the strangers
who visited us on that day ,
will be welcomed again , when
the\T choose to come.
ONE WHO WAS TIIBKE.
Radinsky-Hardin.
One of the principals in the
following clipping , taken from
the Tecumseh Chieftain is well
known to Falls City people.
Louise Radinsky enjoys a large
circle of friends here , who extend

cere congratulations :
At the home of the bride , in

enterprising citizens. Mr. Beau-
ieu has purchased a first class
stock of merchandise in Welsh

old timer at this trade and will

George Hinton is dead.
Scarcely a week passes that
f he Tribune does not record the
sad news of someone's passing.
Phis week , however , must be
recorded the death of one whc
by reason of the long years
ived among us and the cheerful ,
cindly nature that made him
cnown to the entire community ,
eaves a feeling of personal loss
: o us all. For George Hinton
s dead.
The old mill by the side of
which he lived as a boy , the
murky river where he swam and
fished long ago with the gener
ation now reaching middle life ,
lis many friends and com
panions who never received
anything but unvarying kind
ness from him will miss him
now that he has gone , and even
though the end has been antici-
lated for months , will feel n
sense of irreparable loss in the
announcement that George Hinton -
ton is dead.
George never seemed able tc
accummulate much of the
world's goodssome way or othei
it never seemed to him thai
wealth was one of life's essen
tials. But he never failed ir
doing a kindly act , nor ir
thoughtfulness of the feeding *
of others , nor in making am
liolding friends , and I guess
that after all is over and tin
lory told and the book closed
that it is fully as important t <
say he never made anyone un
happy and was always true t <
his Iriends , as to say he left ;
large estate.
George was the only child o
John and Marilln Hinton. Hi :
mother died some years ago am
with the death of George tin
grief stricken father , to when
the sympathy of the entire com
munity goes out , is left alone
George Hinton was born ii
Kingston , Pa. , on March 2,1807
and was 39 years of age at th
time of his death. While quit
young his parents moved t
Palls City where he has sine
lived , with a short interruptior
For a few years he lived i :
Denver but to him there was a :
irresistible force recalling hit
to his old home , so he returnei
to this city and lived here unti
his death last Monday. He wa
married to Lydia Minnick som
few years ago to which union ;
daughter was born. His earl ;
life was spent at the Exchang
mill south of town which , wit !
his father , he operated for man ;
years. He was one of the prc
raoters and owners of the beau
tiful Hinton's park. The latte
part of his life has been lived i
Falls City. About a year ag
his health began to fail and hi
decline was rapid. The drea
disease , tuberculosis , had fasl
ened itself upon him with
tenacity that would not be de
nied. For months he has bee
hesitating at the brink of the
river , but his courage never
failed him neither did he com-
'plain. ' During those days when
he was able to be about town he
! was the same cheerful light
hearted George. When asked
low he felt he always answered
with the courage of one who
uakes a good light , "I am bet
ter. " But his friends saw the
change that was being wrought
and knew that the time was
short. And last Monday at his
lotne on llarlan street the grim
visitor called for him and
George llinton was no more.
The funeral was held Wednes-
.lay afternoon , the interment
being in Steele's cemetery , an
mmense throng following the
remains to the grave.
To the wife and little daugh
ter , to the father who has been
eft bereft and alone , the sympa
thy of the entire community
joes out , trusting that He who
s the author of all things good
will be with them and comfort
them in this the hour of their
sadness.
The Circus.
In the language of the states-
nan from Skunk Ridge "the
circus has came and went. "
The crowd came early from the
country round about and all
towns within a radius of thirty
niles. Because of the long run
: rom Kansas City the circus ar
rived late and the small boy
waiting at the depot from two
n the morning until after nine
jefore he heard the welcome
shout of "here she comes. " The
parade did not take place until
after dinner and was witnessed
by a large crowd. The show
was good , one of the best in
; act that has ever visited Falls
Citg. Some of the acts were
unusual and many were of the
highest class. The tent at the
afternoon performance was well
filled and everybody seemed
satisfied.
NOTKS.
The show is owned by Ring-
ling Brothers , they having
purchased it at the beginning of
the season.
Some people drove thirty
miles to the show , leaving their
homes about midnight in order
to be here on time.
One of the trapeze performers
is an old friend of Mrs. Bert
Reavis. His home is in St.
Louis and he belongs to a very
fine family. His parents are
greatly oppossed to his em.
ployment.
The girl with the white shoes
and dress , accompanied by the
boy with gloves on his hands
and medals on his coat was very
much in evidence.
The clean streets looked well
enough to induce the adminiS'
tration to keep them clean all
the time. The water tanks provided -
vided by the city were a great
convenience.
What a duece of a time the
Giraffe must have when he get'
a sore throat.
New Wheat.
New wheat was being taken
in at the Heacock & Son mil !
on Monday morning of this
week. This is the first thej
have received and it is of ex
cellent quality.
Another Change.
One of our popular mea
market proprietors , J. B. Rame
has sold his shop to A. E ,
Schmidt ot Red Cloud.
Mr. Ramel has been in oui
business circle for some time
and we are sorry to see him re
tire from our midst.
His successor Mr. Schmidt ,
is an old hand at the butcher
business and we can assure his
patrons of the best of service ,
! Installation Services.
| On Wednesday evening an impressive -
! pressive installation service
| was held at the Presbyterian
church when Rev. GnlVm was
formally installed as pastor for
another year , of the church for
which he has labored so faith
fully.
Prof. Smith , of Pawnee City ,
formerly professor of the busi
ness college in this city , de
livered the sermon , while Kev.
Smith of Ilumboldt and Rev.
Des Jardiun of Pawnee City
assisted by delivering charges.
It was a splendid service and
one which was a pleasure to all
attending.
A Pleasant Pound.
On Monday evening of this
week the memberof the First
Christian church visited the
liome of their minister and gave
lie and his family quite a
"pounding , " leaving many tok
ens of their love and esteem to
replenish the larder and gladden
their hearts. Quite a number
who were unable to be present
sent their tokens with others.
All went home feeling the better -
ter , for "It is more blessed to
give than to receive.
