Robt. Attohery received word of tho death of his uncle last week. He resided at TecuniHch, and was in his 70th year. L. A.

Bartlett has done five times more plumbing in the city than anyone else and all work has given perfect satisfaction. tf Concordia has a fire company established in her midst and it has been accepted by the city government as a good thing. The boys have tho good will of our citizens In this much needed acquisition to Concordia. From tho following we should judge Charlie English was getting after the wayward: "Rev. C.

J. English has just issued seven hundred invitations to tho people of this locality to attend prayer meetings. The invitations should be accepted." Glen Elder John McCoy In reading medicine in Dr. Rains' oiliee, Rough on Rats has killed more people the last year than any other poison. W.

Gates is shipping many tombstones Into Nebraska "cities of the dead." He forwarded four head stones to Red Cloud last week. The Concordia grays will play tho Rellevllle bnll team during tho soldiers reunion at tho latter city. This is the reciprocal treaty, so to speek. Harry Parr has been painting window signs all over the aouth sido of Cth st. Rutlcr Taylor Ncitzel, and some others were tho victims.

Mr. J. Mackley in making the rounds Thursday, In some way lost a $3 gold piece in making change. Mr. Mackley would be pleased to have the lost cash returned.

Aaron Short says the electric light folks of this city are contracting with the farmers around Concordia for a speciiied amount of corn stalks, said contract to be filled this fall. J. A. Moseley has the reputation of being one of the best barbers that ever strapped, honed or toned up a razor. His Barons House shop is a palace of joy and comfort to those who seek a smooth shave or fashionable hair cut.

V. 11. MAIIOX, Bridge Com. Lawrence twp, ivs NOTICE TO BRIDGE CONTRACTORS. "Re not among wine-bibbers; for the drunkard and glutton shall come to poverty." Miss Mame Dunning was spending a few days last week at the Truesdell an burban borne visiting her friend Miss Minnie Quick.

Our correspondence will please overlook any omission of their letters of late. We have been bo crowded that It was just Impossible for us to comply. The Santa Fe extension is to be completed Into Superior by tho 20th of September. This will give Concordia another northern outlet for full operations. Let us srnilo.

That man George Tittle gets on all of tho county republican delegations, and without any apparent effort on his part. Tittle is not little when measured ns a successful delegate. The namo of Thos. Wrong is mentioned more frequently In connection with the mayoralty than Is any other name in Concordia. There must be something in a name.

The Concordia Cornice Co. are doing line work on buildings in Belleville' Tho work Is admired and highly spoken of by the citizens of that beautiful littl burg. Andy Tracy, a railroad resident of Yuma, was keeping the flies oft" a plate of good grub one day last week in this city. Andy asked us to call and see him provided we never got within gun-jjtot of his man's town. Tho other evening in Belleville two gentlemen from this city were sitting in a crowd of nine people, seven of whom were democrats and two republicans.

The only thing startling about the above is tho size of the crowd. Robert Stine has a tine healthy lot of ottce Is hereby arlven that bids will be re- cciveo at wie county clerk's omce at Uonoor- dia. Cloud county.

The bond of Charles Stock for justice of the peace of Starr tp. of A Welch for clerk of Oak-laud tp. and J. M. Hare for constable of Lyon tp.

Koad petition of Pecker and others watt considered and viewers appointed. Hoad petltiou of A Neitzel heard and viewers apjiointed. The Elm creek bridge as petitioned for by Jas McKay was ordered repaired. Report of board that examined funds In county treasury approved. The bridge across Elm creek, as petitioned for by II Young, was ordered repaired.

The "last" road petition of as Shea was continued till October session. Koad petition of tieo Nichols and John Eckhart were rejected. Fee bills in Frank Crans and Hluman Inquest We say it was, too, cut right in two Bro. Filson's $10 printing bill against the county. The commissioners did the carving.

They also tore ono of Bro. Hagaman's bills up the back, nnd thus made an immortal enemy out of another wrecked and ruined butt end of nothing but wind and malevolence. To the brothers in howling distress we extend whatever favors we cannot secure. II. Lemoino, tho merchant tailor of Washington has just removed to the Burrus corner and purchased Mr.

Schille's stock and good will. He has ordered a tine line of cassimeres and other seasonable goods for the fall trade, and opens out in bis new location under very favorable auspices. Mr. Lemoine is now in shape to prosecute the tailoring business in a first-class, acceptable style. Remember his change in location.

Left His Home. George Donnally, son of Thos. Don- CBROB were conunueu. The board enters into an agroement with the tp board of Lawrence tp about a certain bridge and appropriation for bridge repairs which is now lu litigation and ponding settlement in the supreme court of Kansas, to the effect that tin county shall pay half of said bridge expenses if county board wins the suit, or if it loses suit, county to pay all the costs Incurred, by the construction of said bridge. Hon.

D. E. Ballard, who unfortunately ran against John A. Anderson in the congressional convention held in this city two years ago, we observe captured the Washington county delegation for state senator last week. The scheme is for Mr.

Ballard to carry his county forjudge Hutchison and the Judge in turn will give Dave the vote of Marshall county for senator. Col. N. B. Brown did a righteous act last week when he had Benny Martin go across to one of the stores and select a suit of underwear for the invalid going to Colorado Springs for his health.

It is far better to bestow your kindness before death than after, and the Daylight would strive to convince the public also of the truth in the passage of scripture that says "it is more blessed to give than to receive." Tho Republican Valley Fair Association will hold their annual fair this year on Sept. 25, 20, 27 and 28. The new officers are B. S. Williams president, E.

Tynor secretary and T. Wrong treas. The gentlemen in charge are live people and we predict the greatest fair here of any town in Kansas. They offer $500 to the township In Cloud which will make the largest display of farming product. No other association in the state has the sand to do this.

To the Citizens of Cloud and Adjoining Counties. 1 Martin Bros, are always in the field with a first class line of groceries at bottom figures. Their trade is increasing every day. Why? Because they sell more goods for loss money than any cash or closing out houso in Concordia. They never try buy trade with a nickel cigar or tho same amount in candy.

When you want to be convinced of tho above, call and see them. The citizens of the east end should shower their rarest blessings upon Walter Branch, for through his efforts the Bankers Loan Trust Co. was induced to erect a $25,000 edifice instead of a temple of much less worth and beauty. It is eastern capital in western buildings that give towns like ours a solid, attractive appoarance, and this is one of these cases New England capital in a commanding Concordia block. Walter Branch can bo classed among our material benefactors.

weight 150 and smoth face. It is sup vegetables raised on his acre property adjoining the city that he is peddling around daily to the good people. Mr. Stine is an old gardener and dcliveis nothing but pure vegetables. From C.

P. Carpenter, one of the many who attended the Downs celebration Friday, we learn the drug stores of that yilllage were thrown open for the occasion, much to the pleasure of the thirsty visitors. Such, you see, is the influence of climate when abroad. If the corn crop of Cloud is in any considerable measure ruined by the non-appearance of rain, we shall forever secede our first born intentions of joining the heavenly ranks after we leave this earth. This personal manifesto we hope will go up among the clouds and find a permanent lodgement.

The awning on the north-east corner of 6th St. and Washington Ave. should be elevated a couple of feet. It dofl's too many hats at its present low altitude. There are several other awnings and sun shades that need a little riso.

We speak of this matter before the city authorities take the liberty of yanking them up a few inches. Morris Maloney has returned from his Mexico tour. He says crops are line in Texas. He also says Al Curtis, a colored fellow who was onco a resident of this city, was killed during his sojourn Albuquerque by another colored man while in a quarrel, Many of the older inhabitants will recollect Al as a great, big, lubberly, troublesome cuss. Morris is not enjoying the best of health.

Great preparations are being made for the fith congressional reunion, to be hold at Washington from August 21st to 24th, inclusive. Our soldier readers and relief corps nhonld not forget this annual meeting. Washington lias nn excollont natural park for all who wish to seek its cooling shades on this occasion, and her citizens, one ami all, are just simply spreading themselves for tho event. Ukovlar Ahmt Moving. 705 horses, 502 men and a Mexican dog passed through the town Wednesday noon.

The second named were soldiers of the regular army from Fort Worth, Texas, and were on their way to Port Meade, Dakota, camping at Lake Sibley. They had a brass band with MDfEESVILLE. After a long pause we come again with items from the hills of dusky diamonds. Tho crops in these parts are very promising. The coal trade is picking up a little.

Some of our boys are getting warmed up a little on politics. Mr. John Richardson has got his new sloop down to the coal. Tho Rev. Mr.

McCall, of Belleville, changed pulpits with Rev. Maddon at this place Sunday. Mrs. A. Henderson is so as to be up and around again under tho treatment of Dr.

McCasey. J. A. G. JAMESTOWN JIMMI0ANES.

By Dolores. (oub special correspondent.) We have had one or two little showers this week but not sufficient rain fell to help the corn any. Some of it is now beyond help. Sir. Stevenson is lying very sick at his daughters, Mrs.

J. Montgomery. It is not thought he will recover. The bnse-ballists have a nice new uniform. The boys went up to Courtland Friday to play the nine at that place.

Mrs. Walter Lewis went up to Scotts-ville Saturday night and came into Jamestown Friday to visit with friends here. A cousin of Mrs. Hostetler, of Beloit, is visitiDg here this week. Miss Sarah E.

McCall attended the W. C. T. U. convention this woek at Miltonvale.

The same county officers were elected again. Mrs. Rastall, the State President, addressed the convention. Mr. Condits is going to make St.
