leu. III, 1COO.
The o. l.. q. met in regular session last
Friday evening. The inaugural address
by the new president was an excellently
written address, replete with good advice
clothed in beautiful language. Well writ
ten biographies of Goldsmith and Shakes
peare were presented by the Misses No
rah Yetter and Ella Marquand. After
declarations by little Nellie Hull and
Bertha Burlington, came the debate on
the relative influence of wealth and wis
dom. The Misses Bereneice Yetter and
Laura Marquand for wisdom, and Messrs.
Chas. Ridgeway and Frank Furbeck for
wealth. As is usual where the lord of
creation pits himself against his mistress,
he came off second best. Next Friday we
we have political meeting with the fol-
lowing exercises: Eulogy on the G. O..
p, by G. G. Yetter. Eulogy on the Great
Unwashed and Unterrifed,b by J. s. Smith.

She Was His Wife.

The person whom we mentioned, last
week, as being on the way here to take
the demented woman, Gertrude Bail
came Saturday evening, and started east
with her Monday morning.
She was glad to put on the clean clothes
which he brought her, but she manifested
too great an aversion to him to remain il
his presence. He said he would have tc
do the best he could about getting her tc
their home in Missouri. She wandered
away last October. Mr.. Bail-this is his
name-said he had advertised largely fol
her. How she ever reached the western
Kansas plains, will perhaps remain for.
ever mystery. He who came after bel
is her husband.

CASTLE ROCK RIPPLES.

CASTLE Rock, Feb. 9, 1886.
Good hide crop.
Rough feed scarce.
Lively demand for corn.
VIM. Cook is enjoying visit from his
father.
Church services at the school house
next Sunday.
Mrs. Frank Davis, who has been i'll for
fortnight or more, is gradually recover
ing.
A. T. Elliott has lost no cattle as yet,
so far as he knows. He is feeding about
100 head.
Cattle in the Forester pool are doing
well. The losses have been comparatively
small thus far.
The warm weather comes in very hand
lily just now. It gives a chance to skin
the dead cattle.
We are told that the party in Lane
county who is holding F. B. Cope's sheep
has lost fifty per cent. of them.
!. P. Olive has removed considerable
number of his cattle from the Forester
pool and taken them to the Saw Log to
be fed.
A meeting is announced for Tuesday
next, Feb. 16,) at P. NJ, at Collyer, for
the purpose of organizing Methodist
church and electing board of trustees.
All persons interested are earnestly re-
quested to be present. Two lots have
been secured, and it is expected that funds
will be obtained for the erection of a
church building.
Returns from few of the cattle owners
hereabouts give the following losses from
the storm: In herd of 30 the loss was 0,
30 loss 4, 80 loss 0, 30 loss 3, 80 loss 2, SO
loss 25, 1913 loss 40, 60 loss l, 125 loss 81,
1S5 loss 26, Is loss 4, II loss O. The losses
seem to have been due as largely to lack
of shelter as to insufficient feed. The
death roll includes not few '1ocoed'
cattle, which had managed to survive till
the storm. Feed given to these cattle is
simply wasted, for it seems impossible to
eradicate the loco poison from the sys-
tenn, and they are almost certain to die
sooner or later. Z.

dition Of affairs around the depot, and
the attention Of the roadmaster should be
called to the fact.
Post-ofice Inspector Thomas, of st.
Louis, arrived in Collyer early Friday
morning, and Immediately began investi-
eating the recent robbery case. He made
thorough inspection of the condition of
the Office also, completing his labors late
Saturday afternoon, when he left for Wa
keeney, to take the fast train for the east.
MIR. Thomas is gentleman of pleasant,
social manners and strict business quail
fications. A refunding of the amount
stolen will be requested.
AS David Blackwelps statement of his
storm experience was given place in this
column, it is but just to give Mr.. Holiday
hearing also, and at his request, the fol-
lowing is inserted, which in some partic-
ulars differs from Mr.. Blackwelrs report:
On the 9Th of January I hired David
Blackwell to take me to the North Saline.
He drove north until some distance be-
yond the Walsh ranch, when the storm
set in and he entirely lost his way. He
then unhitched the team and concluded
to 60 back with the storm. We drifted
with the storm until we struck William
Walsh's timber claim. tried to induce
Mr.. Blackwell to stay there all night, but
he thought best to continue his journey
southwark, which he did. I followed on,
until we arrived at the Saline river, where
he concluded to stop for the balance of
the night. At daylight he resumed his
march for about three hours, not know
ing which way he was going, I, as usual,
following my guide. Finally he said he
knew where he was, and started for Mr..
Webster's, which we reached after long
weary nights travel, and was right royal
ly entertained.
AS for Mr.. Blackwell having to roll me
over a snow bank, that is quite mistake,
and can be accounted for only by his
mental faculties having sympathized with
his physical condition, which recent de-
velopments have proved was suffering
intensely. Notwithstanding Mr.. B. was
wrapped in the only horse blanket in our
possession, his hands became so numb
that, while We were standing by the river,
I opened my overcoat and permitted him
to place his hands therein. I much re-
greet that this explanation has been so
long delayed. HUDSON HOLIDAY.

Conductor J. G. Smith had the mis-
fortune to meet with a very painful,
though not serious accident, last Friday
night at Buffalo Park, which resulted in
his losing the end of the little finger on
the right hand. He suffered twelve hours
with it before he could get any place
to have it properly taken care of. On ar
irving in Ellis he at once went to DR..

wounded member, much to "Bud's" re-
lief. He has the sympathy of all the
