A party of Chicago gentlemen is Bald

pose to sell farmers dry goods , clothing ,
groceries , drugs , in fact anything that
may bo wanted. THE Nr.ws does not
know what house they represent nor
whether it is reliable or not , but it does
know that us a general proposition it is
bad business for farmers or anyone else
to patronize strangers who liave no
interest in the community and who
may never be heard of again after they
have finished the canvass. If it is n
part of the plan of thef o gentlemen to
tnko notes or duo bills for goods which
are ordered , then the less you have to
do with them the better. TUB NEWS is

By the time the goods arrive the notes

whether it bear the appearance of a

HIGH SCHOOL NOTES.
[ From Thursday's Dally. ]
The seniors enjoyed another luncheon
Tuesday afternoon.
The seniors1 heads and the sopho
mores' feet are considered the biggest
part of the high school.
There was no teacher's meeting last
week , out the school managed to exist
regardless of the omission.
"The high heel frequently fens the
appearance of a meeting place for the
organization of a woman's club.1'
The chemistry class is now analyzing ,
which is considered by the members the
most interesting part of their chemistry
work.
The seniors ore offended when asked
to study. They have outgrown auch
silliness , which is deemed the inherit-
ence of the lower classmen.
The clock is acquiring [ poll parrot or
phonographic tendencies and keeps tire
lessly and monotonously repeating the
admonition , "Bequiet , be quiet. "
A Grewsomo Find ! A mirror was
discovered near tlio dictionary yester
day afternoon , causing the faculty con
siderable mental agitation for a short
time.
Preparations are being made for a
local dramatic contest , the winner to ;
enter for the honors at the north Ne
braska contest to be held during the
meeting of the teachers' association in
Columbus the first of April.
The senior class pins are here nnd nro
considered highly ornamental. The
design wonld bo known in geometry as
equilateral triangle. In each angle is
one of the letters "N. H. S. " and at the
point where the perpendicular bisectors
moot is " 1003. " The gold of the pin is
pretty aud prominent , but it requires
close scrutiny to discover the meaning
of the insignia as evidenced by the
letters and figures.
The tirent Amerlcnli Climate.
On the heels of a bright mild day
comes a howling blizzard aud the next
thing yon know the weather is spring ,
like again. No wonder people have
colds aud sore chests and still' backs.
Luckily , Perry Davis' Painkiller is at
hand to give relief. Take it internally
and rub it into the aching flesh. All

EXECUTIVE COMMITTEE NAM ED.
Firemen are Proceeding With Pro
llmlnnrlcs nnd Expect to Begin
Advertising at Once Fund not
Quito Complete. N-
Il-'rom Thursilny's Dully. )
At the meeting of the Norfolk fire de
partment hold at the city hull last
night , it was decided to ohango the
dates of the state firemen's tournament ,
which is to bo hold in this city , to
July21 , ! > iiand2i ! , which will bring it
on Tuesday , Wednesday nnd Thursday.
The old dates were n month earlier in
the senson , but it was considered that
the objection ! ) to thorn were 'good and
the ohango was made accordingly
There WHH a good attendance at the
mooting and the firomeu were enthusi
astically for making the coming event
one of the most successful aud enter
taining over given in tl o history of
the association.
The tournament rules provide that
racing teams shall bo notified of the
tournament DO days in advance of the
meet and under the original dates it
wou'd bo impossible to give them such
notification , It in considered that the
now dates will cscapo the rainy season
and that the event is quite likely to bo
favored with dry tracks and weather
that will invite the attendance of good
crowds. There will bo n lull In the
rush of farm work at that tluio and it
is considered that there will be n better
olnuice for the attendance of farmers
and their families on tlio new dates
than nt the time first set. Neither will
the dates conflict with thoseof fairs
aud race meetings.
An executive committee of three was
uauiod to have clmrgo of the tourna
ment. They wore Chief 0. E. Hartford ,
R. II. Reynolds and S. R. McFarland.
Afterwards the committee was in
creased to ten members , tlio original
committee adding the seven now mem
bers. The following-named were ad
ded : W L Kern , II. W. Winter , M.
O. Burnett , II. A. Pasowulk , M. .1.
Romig , Venus Nenow nnd E. R.
Hayes.-
The couimitto organized by electing
O. E. Hartford ns chairman , S. R.
McFarlaud , secretary , and H. W > Win
ter treasurer.
A committee on printing wns named
nnd it is expected that the work of ad
vertising the advent will bo at once nn-
dertaken. The printing committee con
sists of 0. E. Hartford , M. J. Romig ,
R. H. Reynolds , II. A. Paeewalk and
Venus Nenow.
The executive committee expects to
delegate a share of the work to at least
12 sub-committees , which will bo made
up of members of the department.
The chairman nnd secretary will at
once notify the chairman and secretary
of the board of control of the change of
dates , and the secretary promises to in
sert a page advertisement of the vent
in the book of proceedings of the state
association , soon to be published.
The executive committee has ap
pointed Sunday afternoon for a meeting
to further advance the preliminary
work of the tournament. The regular
meeting of the department will be held
on Wednesday night of next week and
other preliminary details of the work
will be attended to at that time.
The soliciting'committee reports that
it is still short ome dollars of the
amount they set out to raise for the
event and they hope for subscriptions
that -will bring the funds on hand np to
the amount required to make the event
first class in'every detail.
Norfolk is to be congratulated on se
curing this state -event , one of the most
important events of its character dur
ing-each year , and it is anticipated that
there will be largo numbers of people
attracted here.and the firemen expect to
prepare a program that will provide a
continuous good time during the entire
three days of the tournament. This
with the other business and amuse
ment -events scheduled to take place in
Norfolk this summer is certain to give
the city a lively and interesting season.
[ From ITuesday'B Dally. ]
President O. E. Hartford has received
letters from the chairman and secretary
of the board of control of the state vol
unteer firemen's association , and both ex
press themselves favorable to holding
the coming tournament in Norfolk , so
that this city has been practically de
cided on as the location for the event.
There are , however , some objections
to the date chosen and a meeting of the
department has been called for tomorrow
evening to consider the objections. JOno ,
and the principal objection is that the
time is too short to give the running
teams an opportunity to organize , prac
tice and register and it is fcarod that if
the tournament is held on the dates
first named there would not be as many
teams registered for the races as
though the event was held later in the
season. Besides , the latter part of June
is a busy time for farmers , nnd as many
of that class of people could not attend
the event ns though it was given later
in the year. It is likewise believed by
.one of the officers that the chances for
dry and settled weather would also be
bettor if the tournament was held dur
ing the latter part of July.
It is to consider these matters that a
special meeting of the department has
been called for tomorrow night. Those
who have subscribed to the fund for the
entertainment of the tournament nro
invited to meet with the department
and if they have objections to the
change of date , make them known , and
it will bo the aim of the department to
make the date at a time that will bo the
most generally satisfactory.
The subscription list IB still lacking
dollars of ( ho amount the coni
mlttcu sot out to raUo and It is hoped
( hut this di'lletuncy will bo promptly
mot when the list in ngaln presented for
HlgimturoH. The committed has already
duvotud 11 largo amount of tinui to thin
matter nnd will ho compoUnd to glvo
much moro time buforo the tournament
IH nn accomplished SUCCCRH. The ini'in-
bors doing the HolloitliiK have no further
interest in the event thiinj any other
buslucsB men nnd their work iihould
bo mndo IIH easy IIH possible. They uro
cheerfully giving their tlmo for what
they bolluvo to bo the good of the town
and grantor burdens should not bo
thrust upon them than they can manage -
ago , It will bo n fine event for tint
town beyond n doubt , nnd the commit
tee mid the department are entitled to
the thanks of the people for limiting the
tournament a possibility for Norfolk.

With morgcrs and consolidations it Is

Now the Great Northern needs con
