to draw people into dry goods stores.
But the Boston Storo/Counoll B ulTs.
has surprises and bargains for all. Of
course the greatest bargains will bo
found in the lighter grades of summer
goods , but there are ni'iny ' line oppor
tunities to obtain for little money mater
ials that will bo useful for several months
yet. The Boston Store has had the
greatest tnulo this season that it has
over hail , anJ from -now on this will
mean slill narrower margins of profit.
During this week the ladies .vill be
given some ot the prizes of the season.
Vou will benefit youreclves and will
bonollt the store people bv helping to

Every day is a big day nt Monawa now ,
and It requires something mnro luun ordi
nary to attract rspocinl attention. Tbo people
ple who visited the luke Suturdiy evening
were treated to Iho Ilncst entertainment of
the season. The special event was the lightIng -
Ing of the electric light mast In the lake and
Colonel Hood inndo elaborate preparations to
tiroporly celebrate tlio event. The
Second infantry band from Fort Omaha wus
present and rendered nn exceedingly bril
liant program that lasted fromS:3U : until
10'iO. : Tno bund was llrst located on the
lake front by the tiotcl , and played a brilliant
picco when tha electric. HgUts wcro
turned on the shadowy tower that
could Just bo seen through the mists
nnd darkness that brooded over the
surface of the lako. When the current was
turned on the m'sts ' instantly formed Into a
brilliant halo of many tinted lleht and
formed u spectacle that was surprisingly
beautiful. In the meantime the ttireo steam
ers had quietly talton positions in the middle
of the lauo in the shape of n triangle , nnd at
n given slgnul a magnificent pyrotechnic dis
play wns commenced from all of thorn , and
was instuntlv answered bv u similar display
on both sides of the lako. Tlioro bus per
haps not been an hour in the year when tlio
atmospheric conditions wcro so exquisitely
fuvorablo for u pyrotechnic display. The
clouds of vapor tliat rolled over the lake Increased -
creased Iho brilliancy of the llroworks by the
millions of prsiniH suspended In the warm ,
moist air , and the effect wus most extraor
dinary. "Iho fireworks consisted of Roman
candles , colored lights snd rockets , and there
were plenty of each. When the grand Ilnalo
came each steamer was burning from her
dock Immense red , green and blue Unlit ? ,
nnd the effect w.is BUCU ttmt the crowds
went wild with delight. The atmospheric
conditions inuilo oven the commonest lamp
capable of making n pyrotechiu display on Its
own hook , und tuc added brilliancy of the
highly colored light produced an effect that
wus mngnlllcently beautiful. Hundreds of
pcoplo were heard to pronounce It the most
beautiful display of the islnd they had over
seen , nnd nil who hud seen tlio famous
' Siege of Sevastopol" declured the display
over the watci to bo much finer than the
"slcgo. " _

day or two ago that sot all his friends roar
ing and alTordod them an opportunity of
smoking at bU oxpouso alt they wanted to.
Ho is very popular among his associates , but
has a wnv of greeting now acquaintances in
n biurquosort of way that is fairly para
lyzing to a sensitive man. On tbo day re
ferred to there was a now darky cook at
Keudull's boarding plitc ? , and nn fellow-
boarders , thinking to have some fun at bis
rxp.'nso , told tha COOK that Kendall would
probably come blustering up to him In his
usual way when ha ontoreJ the room ,
lie was given thorough Instructions
UK to tbo part ho was to
take and the conspirators then wont tholr
wuv und waltoJ for tholr victim to coma in
to dinner. The Hcnema worked without n
hitch. AB soon us Kendall opened the door
und saw tbo now cook ho walked up to him
and making n feint at him with ono band ho
said , ' 'You black cuss , what uru you doing
hero I" The darky hud learned his part well.
Ho seized n Hugo carving knlfo that luy
handy und making a rush for Kendull bo
shouted. "I'll show you , " and brand ihcd
the knlfo above his head In a way that m idu
ICondail think hit last hour h id 00:110. : The
cook was nearly twlea tlu slzo of K-nidall ,
und tbd latter , thinking discretion the
butter part of valor , made a bee line for the
back door. It bad boon locked by the
conspirator * . Kendall , seeing certain death
staring blm In the face , dodged It and tun
ning up to his friends , who h.id been silent
but Interested spectators , cried out , "Save
mo I Save mpj" At this Juncture the darky's
good nature not the hatter of hln oiTorts at
acting n part , and dropping the knife , ho
allowed a broad grin to wrinkle his features
and be then explained tbo hoax. Kendall
wus very much relieved bv the sudden
chance of front on the part of his adversary ,
and ho lias registered a solemn vow that tlio
next time bo will pick bis darky a little moro
carefully.

a desperate struggle to have a special com
mittee appointed to visit Chicago during Iho
recess and uiuko nn Investigation of the
World' * fair. There was considerable oppo
sition to tbo suggestion , but ho was so nor-
slMent that the senate llnully appointed him
a committee of ono to go to Chicago , ut bis
own expense , nnd make a careful Inspection
of tbo Woild'a fair buildings und ovorytnlti
that pertnlns to them. His anxiety to soothe
the Chicago fair has probably subsided , In
vlow of the fact that no provision was unde
lor his expenses out of the contingent fund.
Tbo members of the houio nsn rule are not
looking junket trips this yei r. Instead of
godding around the country ut government
expense tbo majority of them , nro obliged to
go homo aud buitloto try and nocuro u re-
