The doctors think he will live.

AmIl Mountain and Plain-En

-la RaDtfst Church Course.
 There was very good audience to hear Rev. H. c. Hovey's new lecture last evening, and the entire avails were generously given to aid the Emmanuel Baptist church, whose worthy pastor has hit on this means of re- plenishing the church treasury.
 The lecturer succeeded in interesting his audience in the somewhat familiar subject of Rocky Mountain scenery and adventure, the materials having been gathered during va cation pedestrian trip of one hundred and fifty miles amid that mild region. Colorado has undergone so many changes during the ten years that have elapsed since the time de- scribed by MT. Hovey that he wisely re trained from saying much about the resour- ces and artificial attractions of the State, and contented himself with word pictures of it's ever- glorious mountains, parks and valleys, enlivened by numerous incidents of personal adventure, some of which were quite amus- ing. The lecturer climbed Pike's Peak by the old Indian trail, before the government path had been made, and spent several days amid it's fastnesses. There were seven storms while he was on the mountain, one of which was the most severe. that had been known for years. The description of the gathering of | the tempest on the snowy range, it's sweeping around the Peak and out over the plains l seemed to thrill the andisnce as if they were spectakora of fhe scene

The superlative event of the month
is the advent of the pay car. No occur
renee which is looked forward to with
such genuine signs of pleasure trans
pires in a railroad town. And when the
intelligence is circulated that the rag
car will make McCook at a given hour,
the boys gather themselves together,
give their pantaloons hitch, smile
child-like and bland sufuses their coun-
tenances, and they make a break for
the depot. r. R. men in the main are
we'll paid, but "easy come, easy 60"
seems to be peculiarly appropriate in
the major, with some notable excep-
tons, as will be observed by the man
ner in which quite number are getting
to the front, the cosy houses they have
builded themselves, the cattle they are
accumulating, and the modest bank
accounts they are building up,--a la
TRIBUNE-the latter's b. a. being dis
tressingly modest. The Importance of
the event is not magni6ed over much
when we consider that between $4,000
and $1S, 900 of the total amount Of
about $50, 900 which is monthly paid
to the employees of this division, is left
! behind by Mr.. Floyd at this place.

munity, and that is what VIC want and

properly cultivated. There will beyond
a peradventure be large influx Of peo-
pie into this vicinity early in the spring,

supinely Indifferent, it will be to the
interest of everybody to discommode
themselves somewhat, and assist in To-
eating them on claims, and the harvest
will be plentiful.

The subject of a new school house

The subject of a new school house
is being agitated somewhat. \ new
school building is matter of prime i'm
portance to McCook. There are many
ranchmcn of wealth who would certain
ly make our city their headquarters for
considerable part of the year, if not
their permanent abode, if the facilities
for schooling their families were such
as to make it an object to do so. Our
teachers are doing their best, but are
cramped for room, apparatus, etc, and
we are of opinion that NIcCook has
reached that stage when she can afford
a large, good and substantial building
and we believe the same will be forth
coming at an early data structure in
keeping with the town, and of one of
which we may be proud. So may it be.
