Major Frank North with his force of
Pawnees left Sidney on Saturday for the
1'nwnee reservation in the Indian Ter
ritory. S. O. Smith, land agent in this city,
informs ua that about thirty BectionB of
lund lying in the northwestern portion
of Platte county, have been selected and
located by l)r Krnliulc of Buffalo, N.
Y., who is establishing a colony upon
these lands with citizens from New York
and Pennsylvania.
One hundred and sixty l'nnca Indians
came into the city Saturday, being the
advance party from that tribe bound for
the Indian Territory for permanent set
tlement. They appoar to have good
teams, and they themselves are well and
comfortably clothed. They camped
south of the Loup river and were still in
the city Monday afternoon.
It is the opinion of many of our citi
zens that the recent heavy rain together
with the cold weather which accom
panied it, will destroy fill the young
grasshoppers which remained on the
cultivated lands during the rainfall.
The hoppers that found shelter in the
prairie jjraB are reported to be in good
living condition, and should at once,
under proper regulations, be attended to
by prairie tires as the best method of
destroying the pests.

State Association of Commercial
' Clubs.
Beginning with today- the annual
meeting of the State Commercial Clubs
will be held in this city. Tuesday even
ing some of the state officers arrived so
as to be on. the ground to meet the in
coming delegates, and to direct then to
the headquarters at the Y. M. C. A.
building, which is the place where dele
gates register and also where the busi
ness meetings will be held.
The selection of the place of meeting
for next year will probably take up some
of the time of the convention, there
being several towns who want to enter
tain the clnbe, prominent among whom
is Kearney, and they will be here with a
big bunch of boosters.
Practically all the delegates for to
morrow's meeting will arrive today, and
this evening a business meeting will be
held. One of the matters of importance
to be brought before the meeting will be
a resolution to the next legislature to
provide for a liberal increase in the
amount of tbe appropriation for adver
tising the state in the east. At present
the amount is insignificant and a liberal
increase would be of ineslimab!e value,
as the state, and especially the interior
towns, are almost unknown in the east.
Columbus Entertains the Bankers.
Last Friday Oolumbus entertained
Group 2 of tbe Nebraska Bankers' as
soc;ation at their twelfth annual meet
ing. There were 170 members of the as
sociation present at tbe meeting, and
the session?, both morning and evening,
were held in tbe Y. MT C. A. building.
A good program had been prepared for
the sessions, and after this had been
disposed of the following officers were
elected for the coming year. F. H.
Claridge, Blair, president; E. E. Kyle,
Wahoo, vice president; A. R. Miller,
Columbus, secretary nnd treasurer. In
tbe evening there was a banquet for vis
iting bankers at Maennerchor hall.where
plates wcro laid for about two hundred.
E. R. Gnrney of Fremont acted as toast
master and besides tbe local speakers
E. E. Kyle of Wahoo and J. W. Whelp
ton of Ogallala responded to toasts.
Group 2 included the counties of Wash
ington, Dodge, Saunders, Colfax, Platte.
Boone, Nance. Polk nnd Butler, and
all these were well represented.
Among those who were present at tbe
meeting were representatives from Chi
cago. Kansas City, Omaha and South'
Omaha.
The local committee in charge of the
arrangements left nothing undone to
mnke the stay of the visiting bankers as
pleasant an possible, and take with them
nothing bnt a favorable impression of
our city.
Fremont was selected as the plnce for
holding the 1911 convention of the as
sociation on the same date as this year.
Y. M. C. A. Notes.
All senior members who are interested
in boxing are requested to meet Wednes
day evening with the physical director in
tbe Y. M. O. A.
Barton O. Aylesworth. L. L. D , will

Twelve boys from the local Y. M. O.

given by the International committee in
the "Travels of Paul" by Jackson. The
following ib a list of tbe local particip
ants. Albert J. Phillips, Jaines1 Oolton,
Harold Sloan. Everett Welch, Earl Ool
ton, Wellington Rathbnrn. Homer Rush,
Carl Ruscbe. Donald Sloan. Edward
Weaver, Glenn Munger. This ia the
Grst time the local association bos tuken
part in the International examinations
and the lioys have made a good start.
The marks made by the hoys range from
99J. per cent to 74' per cent, only one
being below 75 per cent. Each boy who
wins a mark of 75 per cent or above will
receive a beautiful, engraved certiticate
from the International committee of the
Young Men's Christian association. It
is very likely that all of these fellows
will receive the certificate. This is per
haps the beet showing made by any as
sociation in tbe state along this line.
Tbe boys will receive another reward.
C. O. Sheldon promised to pay tbe ex
penses to the next State boys conven
tion of tbe boy who was most regular in
attendance at the Bible classes during
tbe winter. It turned out that all of
these boys bad practically a perfect at
tendance so it falls to tbe lot of Mr.
Sheldon to pay the expenses of twelve
boys instead of one to the Fremont con
vention next fall.
Remodelling tbe old Cover bnilding.
west of The Journal office, on Eleventh
