Drop from 15 to 10 Cents , With Premise iso of nn All Night Service. In view of the fact that Norfolk is A city of snfllolout size to require an all night electric light service , it is the aim and purpose of the Norfolk Electric Light and Power Oo. to render this ser vice as soon as business will justify it. To bo nblo to give nn all night service it will bo necessary to abandon all fiat rates and sell current only ou motor rates. Our present motor rates are 1C cents per thousand watts , or three fourths of a cout per hour for a 10 caudle power lamp. The company proposes as a special in ducomout to consumers to buy current ou motor rates to roduoo this rate to 10 cents per thousand watts , or one-half cout per hour , provided consumers buy their owi meters , which for ordinary residence will coat $15. The minimum charge for any residence will bo $1 per mouth. This rate IB as low or lower than any city known to us that operates its own plant whore coal is used for fuel. fuel.Tho The company believes it will bo just ified in giving an all night service as soon ns 100 residences are wired nud us ing current , nnd hereby agrees to do so. Consumers may employ anyone com petent to do their wiring or this com pany will do same at cost. Consumers already using motors may receive re duced rate by buying motor already in stalled. Hoping that this reduction in price will increase our business sufficiently to enable ns to glvo an all night service by September 1 next , wo are Yours truly , .

The largest species of wild cat over eoen in this part of the country was kill ed on the West Table by a son of John Wohllng. It weighs thirty-six pounds and stands as high as a good sized wolf. It was brought to Broken Bow , where Judge Sullivan bought it and has had it mounted. Dr. Day did the taxadermist work on it and it is now a fine specimen and is as lifelike as can bo. The animal was caught in a wolf trap by both front foot and on being found was shot. It ia thought that an animal of this size could easily get away with a good sized calf. Broken Bow Chief. Question Answered. Yes , August Flower still has the larg est sale of any medicine in the civilized world. Your mothers and your grand mothers never thought of using any thing else for indigestion or biliousness. Doctors were scarce , and they seldom heard of appendioitisnervous prostration or heart failure , eto. They used August Flower to clean out the system and stop fermentation of undigested food , regu late the action of the liver , stimulate the nervous and organic action of the system , and that is all they took when feeling dull and bad with headaches and other achea.

LANDS IN WILDS OF WYOMING , Used to Sweeten the Coffee and Pica of Government Saw Mill Gang , Who are Anxious to Know How the Sac charine Matter Is Extracted. Milo D. Smith , weigher of sugar at the Norfolk factory during the lastpam- paign , placed a letter in ouo of the sacks for the satisfaction of learning the des tination of that sack , chosen nt random , aud requested nu answer to his uoto from the receiver of the sock. His let ter was dated November 25 , aud last week ho received a reply postmarked at Dayton , Wyoming , and dated "Wolf Mountain , Crow reservation , govern ment sawmill , January 27. " The reply was signed "Sow Mill Crow" and conn- talnod a description of their life , pleas ures and pursuits. The saw mill is located fifty miles from the nearest postofllco and owing to a heavy fall of snow the writer stated that it would require a skilled traveler on snow shoes to deliver the letter to Uncle Sam. The route covered would bo through an uninhabited country , dan gerous for the traveler because of wild boasts and hostile Indians. The crew is composed of 50 mon and they have plenty of wild game , including venison and boar meat. As the letter wns being prepared - pared the writer states that a female boar and her two cubs were seen not 50 yards from camp. The crow has a pot mountain lion which was rocoutly cap tured and follows some of the boys like a dog. The lumber made by the crew is used in erecting buildings nt the agency. The camp is located about 8,000 foot above sea level and the tem perature registered about GO degrees be low zero nt the time the letter was dated. It is stated that n member of the crew loft the camp about a week previously for the mail and some mill aupplies and had not been heard from since. He should have made the trip in three days and a party was started out to search for him. The writer states that a man can always got a job there and at good pay. The camp has boon located ten years and during that time a number of men have lost their lives because of the dangers sur rounding them. It is stated that because of wolves , benrs nnd Indians who stam pede them , it is difficult to keep horses. The writer is anxious to receive an an swer to his letter and wishes the process of making sugar described. The letter furnishes evidence of how the product of the Norfolk factory travels. This is but one sack. Others perhaps take longer journeys but it is probable that few get to more out of the way places than this ono. Northern Wisconsin Railway Farm .For Sale.
