breaker at the land office in the way
of homestead entries , sixty-five hav
ing been made up to date. This is
more than have been made any
month in about twelve years , or since
the Chadron office was organized and
is a whole volume of testimony to the
value of north Nebraska lands. One
noteworthy feature of this phenome
nal month is the fact that fully two-
thirds of the entries have been for
Cherry county land.

years , and also decided to employ an P
assistant principal next year. This li
is rendered necessary l > y the large lisi

and the revenue derived under the
new high school law is expected to al
most , if not entirely , pay the new ir
teacher. It is estimated that the irol
high school will have 50 to oo pupils olw
next term , and the revenue from non m
residents will amount to about $40 st
per month.
All the flags in town were lowered
