until Monday the passenger trains were
handled over the Burlington from Oma
ha to Grand Island, and the service here
consisted of a couple of locals between

mail from the east arrived by the way of
Grand Island, and Saturday forenoon
the bulk of the delayed mail arrived.
The first passenger trains from the east
got here early Monday morning, and

has been one of the worst since the road

repairing the damage. The Burlington
had their track washed out between

nesday, and service on the line was not
resumed until the last of the week, the
passenger stopping at Bellwood.

betaken chiefly from life and nature
and history. The next meeting will be
a devotional one in the parlor of the
Baptist church, March 4,
