The Dan Morris Sullivan enter
tainment was well attended the first
night Thursday lasD and fair house
greeted them the second night. The
panoramic tour of Ireland was just as
beautiful and entertaining as of old,
and the quaint fun and humor of Dan
and Josie just as sparkling. How
ever, the truthful chrOnicaler will be
constrained to say that like many
others who have catered to and held
enchained the admiration of the
public in the hey-day of their youth,
they are mot as young as they used
to be" and the sweet cadence of the
youthful voice in song did not lend
the old-time attraction to the enter
tsinment that it once did.

Joe. Gross of Madison was in
town Wednesday. He reports bis
folks all well. Speaking with him
about the great loss of cattle and
hogs in the state, he gave it as his
opinion that the trouble with cattle is
caused by an accumulation of sand on
the corn stalks, which, In the stom-
sch, fills the pores and causes disease,
and says that, if sulphur and salt in
large quantities are fed, the cattle will
be compelled to take an excess of
water, and thus avoid the evil effects
of the sand; after . heavy snow or
rain, there is of course less danger
from the sand, as experience proves.
As to hogs, be has found that concen.
trated lye, about two spoonfuls to .
bucket of water, is An excellent pre-.
ventitive, and suggests that it is best
to keep an animal in condition than
to wait until he is behind, and then
try to bring him up.

other newspaper venture which is
even more adventurous than the one
which recently stuck stakes at Gordon,
the present terminus of the grade
" hich has been completed on the
S. c. & P railroad about one hun
dred miles west Of Valentine. The
new paper has located on the line Of
the road some forty miles further
west at the prospective point where
the Black Hills branch will leave the
main line, at a place called Chadron.
That the paper will be a great aid in
settling up and civilizing the new
country there can be no doubt, but
just where the support is to come
from does not seem so clear. Even q
