THE FALLS CITY TRIBUNE.
Vol. IV FALLS CITY , NEBRASKA , FRIDAY , JUNE 2i , 1907. Whole No. 178
Boys Arm Broken.
While swinging on a cable
swing last Saturday , Dorring-
ton Wigton fell as he tried tote
to jump over a high bar and
one bone of his right arm was
iractured just above the wrist.
Dr , Boose was called and the
bone set. Although he has
suffered considerably , Dorring-
ton seems to be doing nicely at
this time.
Lewis Wise Wins Prize.
Lewis Wise was very lucky in
winning a $10.00 prize for
names sent in to the Woman's
National Review. He sent in a
club of six and as a prize re
ceived S10.00 which he con
siders a very good investment.
We are glad indeed that
Lewis was one of the fortunate
ones. He is an all around hust
ler and we hope that he will be
successful in landing other
prizes.
To Build Auditorium.
The Park Association has
bought the lumber now used in
the Tabernacle and as soon as
the Revival meetings are over
it will be used in the building
of the large auditorium which
is to be built at the Park. This
building is to be of large pro
portions , with a large stage
and will be comfortably seated.
It will-be used for all public
gatherings , religious and poli
tical , conventions of all sorts ,
in fact any kind of meeting re
quiring a large building. This
is a fine thing for our town and
in having a place of this kind
many more large conventions
and assemblies can be brought
to the town. We have the
spirit and facilities to accomo-
date and entertain the visitors
to our city on these occasions
and it sneaks volumes for the
enterprise ot our citizens in pre
paring a buildjng suitable to
hold large public gatherings.
We know of no town the size of
this in this section of the coun
try with such a building. With
our public spirit , good "public
buildings and the well known
hospitality of our people , Falls
City is bound to have things
coming her way.
From Missoula Montana.
We received the Missoula
Herald from Oscar Maddox this
veek and the following article
"ill be of great interest to the
friends of Ike Beaulieu.
J. L. Beaulieu of Falls City ,
Nebraska , has purchased the
confectionery store formerly
owned by M. Keith and will
conduct the business in the
future. Mr. Beaulieu visited
the city last September and was
so favorably impressed with
the future of Missoula that he
concluded to locate here. Mr.
Beaulieu has had years of ex
perience in catering to the pub
lic and will make many changes
in the store he has purchased.
The sale was made through
Stanclift and Hoverson.
We are glad to know that
Mr. Beaulieu has been success
ful in locating himself so soon
and he has our sincere wishes
for success.
We note also that the Herald
is edited by W. E. and W. A.
Hassler , two young men wel
known to the editor of the Trib
une , having grown up in Paw
nee City. Their father until
very recently was editor of the
Pawnee Press. They are born
newspaper men and from the
extent of the advertising and
general appearance of the Her-
aid we would imagine they
-were making a grand success
of this enterprise. To them
and other friends in Missoula
we extend our best wishes for
success.
Board of Supervisors.
The Board of Supervisors was
in session several da s last
week but nothing of a very
startling nature developed.
They were a very quiet and or
derly body. Three days sessions
were held as a board of equaliza
tion but not a S' ul appeared
with a protest which spealcs
well for the work of the county
assessors.
Claims to the amount of $ . " > ,
917.32 were allowed from the
general fund and to the amount
of 83,200.85 fr6m the bridge
fund.
The board adjourned Thurs
day.
With the City Council.
The council met in regular
session Monday evening June
17th. About the only business
of importance transacted was
the passing of an. ordinance
iroviding for the appropriation
: or the payment ot all items of
expense of the city beginning
with the fiscal y ar , Tuesday
Mav 7th and ending the first
Tuesday in May 1903. The
amount approparited is 522,800
ind ordinance designates the
object of each amount and the
amount allowed and the fund
'roin which the amount shall
be drawn.
The subject of the bonds was
discussed but not officially as
the official steps have already
aeen taken.
No other business of impor
tance being before the council
they adjourned to meet Monday
June 2-lth in regular session.
Revival Meetings.
The meetings at the taber
nacle haye been well attended.
Sunday night many could not
find a seat.
Evangelist Oliver is a line
preacher and he is not afraid to
condemn sin. His efforts are
directed toward one end , that is
the moral regeneration of our
people. No one who favors
God and righteousness can line
up against these meetings.
The music under tfie director
Prof. Oliver is first class. A
large chorus of about 200 voices
is one of the notable features.
About 90 to 100 have Already
come forward and decided to
live for God.
The professed followers of
Christ ought to be united in
this effort to save sinful per
sons. It is God against Satan.
"Which side are you on ? It
ought to be God's side.
Poisoned by Strawberries.
Five members of Joseph Loll-
man's family were poisoned Mon
day night by eating strawberries.
It is supposed the berries at some
time had been sprayed with some
insect disinfectant containing
large quantities of arsenic. While
very ill for several hours the
famil ) * was in no danger and at
this time have recovered nicely ,
A Pastor Selected.
The Rev. Daniel George Cole
of Deerlodge , Mont. , arrived
here last Friday having accep
ted the call ot the First Chris ,
tian church of this place. Rev.

many friends among our towns
people.

tended visit with her daughtei
Mrs.V. . R. Adams and her ser
Charlie Dilts. We wish her
pleasant trip.
Band Stand Complete.
The band stand is finished
with the exception of the paint
ing and does credit to those
whose earnest i'11'orts are re-
sponsibk' for its being iitiilt. It
is in every \ \ , iy an ornament to
the square and our city should
be proud of it. It is of very
attractive design and large in
proportion. It i.s wall lighted

Two Diphtheria Cases.
Two of the children of Albert

that it is possible to keep the

Fashion Hints.
A suggestion for graceful
figure : S.
The "new shape" is made of
the same materials as the old.
Although knickerbockers are
not the thing in swell circles , the
breath is often found in short
pants.
The ' ' buttcrlly tie" is still the
mode , although for brunettes , is
in southern latitudes , he my is
sometimes used at important
functions.
The vogue of the ' 'jumper" as
a garment for that part of the
liuman anatomy which docs not
jump , would seem to logicall-
call for the use of gaiters as cor
set covers.
The hose supporter has so uni
versally superseded the elastic
band , that there is nothing left
of the old fashoned Barter but
the "Iloni soil'1 maximum.
The turn over collar will hold
its own this season if securely
fastened.
In determining the quantum of
sleeve regard should be had to
the proportion of arm available ;
the less arm you have the more
sleeve you will require et vice
versa.
Bathing costumes this year
still follow , in a general way , as
lierctofore , the style set by the
mermaids and the fishes.
In automobile costumes none
but fast colors arc employed ) and
as usual , many are dying. ,
Hosiery is still worn rather full
especially by those inclined to be
pl unip , and sometimes it is also
worn threadbare.
In modish gloves there is no
departure from the standard
weight , and the period of ten
seconds is still allowed for the
count.
A variety of pleasing tastes
dictate the wearing of milady's
coiffure , but the practice of w'ear-
ii\K it on her escort's shoulder is
Frowned upon by dames de confi-
ance.
In foot wear the cardinal rule
still prevailed : "If the shoe fit ,
put it on. "
For evening wear at smart
functions a favorite appanage
among some of the ultrafashionable
able is a good deal of nerve.
The proper place for pads is on
the walls of the cell.
Mrs. Mosc Vcach of Verdon is
in the city this week taking med
ical treatment.
The 12 o'clock luncheons at
the National hotel are becoming :
more popular each week.
The 5 o'clock dinners at the
National hotel are perfect and
the increased patronage shows
how popular they are becoming.
Mrs. JamesJellison has returned
from Lincoln where she was call
ed by the illness of her daughter.
Mrs. Sherdeman has so far re
covered that she will come to
Falls City next week.
Chas. M. Wilson has rented the
Holt building now occupied by
Kclley's shoe store and about
July 20th expects to move into it.
Some changes are to be made in
the building and when completed
and the stock moved , Charlie will
have one of the finest china and
queenswarc stores in this section
of the country.
Lady Pearl , a palmist came
into town the last of the week
and put up at the Lindell hotel.
From all appearances we judge
the lady did not do a very nour
ishing business. Either our people
ple know enough of their future
from the past or did not appreci
ate the lady's gifts. Anyway
Landlord Curran was no richer
after his lodger left than before.
