Was fttingly and fcelingly observed
in Kimball. All business was suspend
ed IN the afternoon during the services
at the opcrn house and cemetery. Reno
Post G. A. r. was escorted from its hall
to the opera house by the Kimball Fire
Department in full uniform. 1t was q
pretty sight-the young and athletic
french in their bright regalia, escorting
the old veterans attired in their more
| sober salts of blue. The [. o. o. f.
lodge joined the procession at the en-
trance to the hall and all marched in and
took seats in q body, The formal exer-
discs Of the G. A. K. was gone through
with, after which addresses were de-
livered by l.. y. Foote and 9. r. Tinan.
Mr.. Foote's address was an excellent
one, and the feeling with which it was
received was evinced by the frequent
aud prolonged applause which greeted
him. Mrs. D. G. Grippen red an oTigl-
nal poem which was written after her
usual happy style The kimba!l choir
furnished excellent music. The pro,
cession to the cemetery was led by tho
fire department, followed by the G. A
r. post aud l. o. 0. F. lodge III the
order named. The procession was ovcl
a half mile long. Taken all in ell it wa.
one OF the most crcditable affairs Of the
kind eveAheld in Kimball.

w. A. Thompson suddenly disap-
peared Saturday morning and nothing
has been learned of his whereabouts
since that time. The missing man is
about sixty years of age. He arrived in
Kimball some few months ago, from
what locality is not known to the writ
Or. His residence in Kimball has been
marked by TO important event save q
daily promenade on Maln street and mar
rying q h~ald-working and Industrious
widow woman. He claimed to have
valuable lands in Michigan. but it is
probable that they existed only in his
distorted Imagination. The theory that
he has been spirited away by COW boys
and held for a large ransora. or that he
has been waylaid and robbed and his
body concealed, is secuted by those who
are best acquainted with his circnm-
stances. From the best information at
command it is believed that the amor,
Gus old Guss got a littl. ,huffy at his
bride-for old lovers will quarrel as well
as young-and in starting across the
prairie to inhsle fresh ozone and cool
his lmPassioned brow, stepped on his
lower lip and now lies in a deadly swoo.r
at some sequcsted spot.
In the meantime the deserted and dis.
consulate widow. who is in delicate
health, is the recipient Of mingled
sympathy and congratulate ms. He il
her third husband and she in tnrn is hi,
third wife. 1t seems to be a case ol
three times and out.

For June contains as frontispisce a
portrait of Henry William Herbert
Drank Forrestcr). A sketch of his life
and a history of his, family follows from
the pen OF Morgan Herbert. The well
known author, DR.. James A. Hensiiall,
contributes Tin interesting article on the
black bass. Two ine engravings of the
small and large mouth species look SO
natural that tho heart OF the angler
grows weary to think he cannot be
beside the still waters where they
abound. The second of the series OF
articles on the life and Adventures OF
Ned Bantline" by VIII Wildwood is
fully as interesting az Its predecessor.
Among the many interesting contri
buttons is one from the well known dog
breaker and brce1cr, Beruard Waters.
