Wall paper for 121a cents per bolt at
Metropolitan drug store.

During the crowded condition of our
thorough-fares, on the 4th, an old lady
by the name of Blake, who lives on
Brush creek, while attempting to cross
Dennison street between teams, was run
over by a buggy occupied by Mrs. q. L.
Kay and Mrs. A. NJ. Kelly, and consid-
erably bruised, though not seriously in
jured. The old lady was removed to the
office of DR.. Stutzman, near by, who pre-
scribed for her immediate wants, shortly
after which she was sent home by DR..
Kay, who kindly offered to stand all ex-
penses consequent upon the accident,
which was the result of the old lady's
thoughtlessness in assaying to cross the
street between lines of rapidly moving
teams, on an exciting occasion like the
4th, and not through carelessness of the
driver.

REPORT OF MCCOOK SCHOOL
For the Year Ending July
3rd, 1888.

No. of persons of school age in district. :. .285.
Whole number enrolled during year....... 240.
Highest number belonging at any time e. .150.
Average attendance since Jan. 1st...... lib.
Whole number of sittings in building. .1s9.
1t will be seer from the above report
that had all the pupils who have been en-
rolled during the year, attended regu-
larly, about fifty of the number could
not have been received, by reason of a
lack of accommodations. There is reas-
on to believe hat tie attendance ensu-
ing year will be much larger than last.
In view of the fact, we respectfully sug-
gest that the feasibility of erecting an
other building be brought before the
meeting for discussion on Monday even
ing, July 18th. With ample accommo-
d%ations, the school can be brought to a
higher standing, which is very desirable.
We take pleasure in acknowledging the
cordial support of the Board of Educa-
ton, and of the community at large, in
u relations as teacher and patrons.
Trusting that the year to come may be
one of prosperity to the schools, [ re-
main, Very Respectfully,
W. S. WEBSTER, Principal.

The Fourth of July,

The morning of the fourth dawned fair
and lovely, and drew an immense crowd
of people to our city from neighboring
towns and surrounding country, all gaily
arrayed in holiday attire, with their
wives and families and best girls.
The exercises of the day opened with
a Calathumpian parade, proceeded by
the Cornet band. This feature of the
program was ludicrous in the extreme,
and produced no end of merriment and
joking. After marching and counter
marching through the principle thor
ough-fares of our city, the procession
disbanded at the rink, where the other
exercises of the morning were held.
After a number of beautiful selections
from the Band, singing of a number of
patriotic songs by the Glee Club, prayer
by Rev. DUNCAN, and the reading of the
Declaration of Independence, by Prof.
Webster, the speaker of the day was
introduced.
The address of Hon. H.. NJ. Wells of
the Crete Vidette was excellent, both as
to subject matter and delivery. Mr..
Wells paid some glowing tributes to our
national greatness and the prosperity of
the states, especially of Nebraska. Our
own beautiful county and town were
not missed in the distribution of encom-
iums, and all in all we left proud to hear
one of the fraternity soar the American
eagle to such an altitude. But, alas,
the speaker could not allow the oppor-
tunity to slip by to ride his favorite hob
by-anti-monopoly. The principle is o.
X, but on such an occasion it were poor
taste to so digress.
The afternoon exercises we're held at
theDriving Associations grounds, south
east of town, and were witnessed by a
large concourse of people. Through no
fault of the management, the races
were somewhat curtailed. The free-for-
all trotting race was won by A. MEG.
Robb's mare in three straight heats,
with b. L. Olcott's horse, second. The
running race was easily taken by the
Sibbett horse of Indianola, and the trot-
ting race for 2-year-olds was won by L.
j. Starbuck's horse. The shooting
match was won by w. NJ. Lewis. There
being no entries, a number of the sports
were of necessity abandoned.
The heaviness of the atmosphere in
the afternoon, made it impracticable to
send up the balloons, and the discharge
of the fire works was also postponed
until Monday evening, when a very fine
display was made, before a large and
enthusiastic crowd, many coming in
from the country to witness the same.
The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1885-07-09

The handy work of frankie Bishop,
Esq, is noticeable in the local columns
Of the Indianola Courier, this week. The
fact that frankie has enrolled his name
amongst the redeemed and the further
fact that he is a prominent Y. NJ. G. A.
official have not been of sufficient eff
cacy to purge his soul of that fell dis
ea%se--lying. Granted that the celebra-
ton held at McCook, July 4th, was not
what it might have been, had more in
terest been taken, but this acknowledge
ment even is not excuse for deliberate
misrepresentation and falsehood. In the
first place, so far as 'beer drinking and
carousing'' is concerned, the Courier's
assertion is a deliberate falsehood, and
without foundation. Considering the
crowd, the day was remarkably quiet,
and very little drunkenness was to be
seen On our streets. Secondly, no one
but a monumental specimen of the long
cared tribe would have had the cheek to
slur band of the accomplishments of
the Cornet band. Thirdly, did the spirit
of honesty and fairness enter at all into
frankie makeup, he would have omit
ted that insinuation on the fire works,
as he knew full well that, after discharg-
ing one pin wheel, the matter was post
poned on account Of rain until Monday
evening, when a very creditable showing
was made in this line, before a large
crowd. The celebration failed in some
essential particulars, we again admit,
but the statements in the Courier are
unfair, unmanly and false. We merited
an honest criticism.
The McCook tribune. (McCook, Neb.) 1886-1936, 1885-07-09

The entertainment by the children of
the public schools, Thursday evening of
last week, was largely attended and
thoroughly enjoyed. The program con-
sisting of recitations, declarations, dia-
logues, ETC., was well rendered by the
children, the operetta and closing tab
leau being worthy Especial commenda-
ton. In fine the scholars acquitted
themselves in a very satisfactory nam
ner throughout, which reflects credit to
those who had the children in charge,
as we'll as to the individual scholars.
The Juvenile band, as an evidence of
the appreciation of the music rendered
by them, were presented with a hand
some specimen of the stars and stripes
"a gift from admiring and deeply in
terested parents.

The McCook Banking Co. moved into
