Today's rain made the track heavy auel the good events are postponed. Exhibits will bo kept. There will bo a rehearsal Saturday evening at 7:30 at the Congregational church of the Sunday school exercises that are to be held Sunday morning. The people of York are now engaged in pearl fishing , pearls having been dis covered in clam shells in Beaver creek k/ / Some of them are very good quality and are bought by the local jewelers , who pay as high as $2 50 apiece. The ladies of the M. E. Aid society were probably more success ! ul , or un successful , than they know in choosing o day for their "unlucky social" to bo given touight at the homo of Mr. and Mr& . 0. S. Hayes. Friday , the i5th ; , is a combination that might well daunt the bravest. The rain is the most unlucky thing for the social that has yet devel oped. The Monroe Republican says the farmers with irrigated corn in that vi cinity are now through their seasou's work until the time for picking the crop arrives. All those using water are pleased with the results , the only draw back being in understanding how to handle it properly. This difHculty will be overcome in a few years and irrigu tion reduced to a system. Wayne Republican : A story is told ou President Pile of the college that fully illustrates the potato situation in this town : A few evenings since the gentleman telephoned his grocer : "S nd up ten bushels of potatoes. " "Ten bushels of potatoes 1 Why , there ain't that many in the county 1" replied the astounded grocer. "Well then send up a bushel , " said Mr. Pile. "Tho fact of the matter is , professor , " replied the grocer , "that there ain't a bushel of potatoes in the city. " At this the now thoroughly alarmed school man said : "Well , for humanity's sake send me up a quart for sauce for supper I" But the students went without potato sauce. About fifty Norfolk people went to Wayne yesterday to take in the county fair. They were particularly ; attracted by the announcement that there would be a swift horse race but bring back the report that it was a decided frost and they were Sorely disappointed. The track was in good condition and a horde that did a mile in 2:14 at Lincoln was given the race , the best time made being 2:30. : The opinion formed was that it was all fixed beforehand. One of the gentlemen who went over said he could find more genuine enjoyment in the upeed put up by Norfolk colts under training. He was of the opinion that there were not more than 250 people on the grounds. With Sunday the conference year of North Nebraska Methodists closes and after the session at Neligh a new year will be entered upon. The Norfolk Methodists are closing a very pleasant and harmonious year under the pastor ate of Rev. G H. Main , who has served them five years in that capacity. This was at one time the limit , but a recent session of general conference has ex tended the time and ho may return to Norfolk if the bishop sees fit to appoint him for another year. Mr. Main has many warm personal friends both iu and out of the church and it is hoped by them that ho will again bo stationed here. He has given excellent satisfac tion and "wears" well , as is attested by his long service. Another pretty ball game was played at Croighton yesterday between the Norfolk and Creighton teams , the score resulting 7 to 15 in favor of Norfolk. The batteries were : Norfolk , Bncklin and Wilkius. Creighton , F. Fosberg and Carroll. Time of game 1:20. : Urn- l > lrs. KhuiT Fhisou.

Tonight tlio Crulgh * tin peopla will eutertnln the Norfolk boys at a dance , given in their honor. Nebraska City society Is also devoted to the enjoyment of bowling and the enthusiasts of that town are producing some very good score" . Mr. Handall of that place receutly made the score of 247. Of his achievement the Tribune says : "It Is the story of seven successive strikes. More than that , the crossbucks were followed by a spare , a strike and the only brenk In the ten frames , which came in the lust inning. Handall did not get less than nine pins on any first ball rolled. With 160 in the first half , lie was urged on to a ! ! 00 gait and kept it up until the seventh , when lie bowled down only nine on the lirst ball but spared on the second. Then followed a clean cut strike and then a miss , which told the tale of the most sensational game in Nebraska City. Randall has au almost faultless delivery and a speedy ball , although ho has lacked accuracy and steiuliw.H. Last even- lug's exhibition demonstrated the value of practice.

Elkhorn Building and Savings association , T. E. ODIOKXE Sen. A. O U. W RECEPTION. Lodge Receives Visit From Grand Master Workman Jasknlek. There was a good attendance of Work men last night at the opeelal meeting of the lodge to meet Grand Master Work man Jacob Jaskalek of Omaha and they were well repaid for attending. They found the grand master very congenial company and were the ready captives of his prepofsewtlng ways. They only hope that the feeling was to some extent re ciprocal and that their distinguished guest will carry homo a good Impres sion of Norfolk lodge No. 97. Mr. Jaskalek , though not claiming to bo an orator , early in the evening gave evidence that he was capable of molting a heart to heart talk and left a moro favorable impression with the members than could be liccompllshed by many flowery speakers. Ho is full of enthusi asm for the order and has a way of im parting this quality to his hearcm that had a uoticablo effect and his visit will undoubtedly materially benefit the local lodge. Ho presented Porno arguments for membership in the A. O. U. W. that were easily comprehended and most powerful. Ho considers that the death benefit is of minor importance ; that the cost oi maintaining membership is fully repaid by the fraternal features of tlio lodge , and gave a very clear and concise statement of the slight cost of maintain ing membership. Ho considered the proposition at the maximum. Taking the lo years that Nebraska jurisdiction has been organized n man belonging during the ortiro 15 years would have paid out floS in as-sessmiintH. Local lodge dues would have cost him at $1 a year , $00. In relief calls ho would have paid .i-17.-tr > and for per capita tax ilf > M ) or a grand total of ยง 251. This is at the highest possible expense , which none of the original members have iver been called upon to pay. it makes quite n respectable sum but lacks a great deal of the i2,000 the member's family would receive at his death and figured to a line point is about I1. . , cents a day or leu1- than the cost of a cigar. The fraternal features of the order are easily worth the cost of a cigar a day and with n good . J2.000 beneficiary certificate thrown in , is well worth many times that amount. The man who would not take advantage of hiich an opportunity to enjoy fraternity and protect his fam ily is surely not much of a citizen or father or husband. The denial of a cigar n day will pay the expense and a man must bo exceedingly selfish who would not do that. When he had finished speaking and Deputy Grand Master Workman F. F. Miller and other members of tlio lodge had paid their respects to the order , re freshments of ice cream , cake and fruit were served and the cigars that followed were enjoyed in a social manner until adjournment. It was au enjoyable and profitable evening for Norfolk Workmen and those present extend their sympathy to the absent members and those who do not enjoy the privileges of the order. Special attention given to order work at Miss Bender's. Fou SALE 80,000 acres in North Da kota. For sale on crop payment plan. G. II. SIILIK.
