BIG SPRINGS CLEANlNCS.
Hurrah! for Jack Frost.

The potatoes, of which the farm.
ers have an abundance up here, are
coming out Of the ground at a 2:40
gait. 1t seems as il the Swedes are
as much in for ''spuds" as the pad
dies"
Politics form the principal topic
of conversation.
Threshing machines are singing
their welcome song early and late,
and farmers are filing their grana-
ries to the utmost capacity.
AS a natural result Of tempo
rary prosperity weddings are
numerous. One is to come off next
Sunday.
The school here, which has now
been in session four weeks, is one of
the best in the county. The Swedes
up here plainly demonstrate their
estimation Of education by the fact,
that, in spite Of the very busy times
the school now enrolls forty pupils
and has an average attendance of
about thirty. What school in the
county can beat that? Will you
say the Swedes are sl'perstitious and
ignorant? ! guess not.
The other morning the pupils of
this school were greatly amused at
finding that a sparrow hawk was
making himself at home in the
school house and showed his deter
mination to stay, by the fact Thai he
remained in the room until noon
when he was caught and carried out.
He had gone in through an open
window during the night to save his
toes from sack Frost" The teach
er took advantage of the occasion by
using him for an object lesson in the
language class.
The Big Springs city barber upon
being asked, the other day, why he
went into that business, replied that
he didn't think he ever would if the
ladies had not gone into the style Of
wearing cropped hair. He has his
pockets full Of feminine hair.

That our rivers and harbors should be i'm

for bridges over our navigable streams un-

that congress should organize naval reserve

recommending it to congress for enactment.
A resolution was passed requesting the Pan
American congress TO take action for the
establishment of unit of coinage common to
all the American people The meeting closed
tonight with grand banquet and an address
by Henry Watterson, VINO spoke on the gen
eral state of the country.
In concluding his address Mr. Watterson
referred to the Eldorado-thc new south--at
length, speaking of the richness of the fields
to be opened up there He added: "But
what is the value of all this if we have not
order and law regulated by intelligent and
responsible government How shall 1t p 'otit

the spell of that wizards wand which we
call civilization, and to whom shall this wand

Can they not feel that they may trust the in

MURDERED FOR HER MONEY.
Terrible Fate or Fallen Woman a.
Cbyinptpn.

SIOUX CITY, Ia, Oct. 1.-THE town OF
Covington, Neb., Just opposite this city,
which has been the home of all the thieves
and prostitutes that were driven out of Sioux
City, has added another crime to its record.
Sunday night Ida Kildare, an inmate of Nell
Johnson's notorious resort was horribly
beaten by visitor TO the house, receiving
SIX wounds, from which she died this morn
ing. The facts In the case as learned by
visit to Covington are that on the night in
question stranger, Of prepossessing appear
ance, went TO the johnson plate aud, beoom'
ing apparently struck on the Kildare girl,
went to her room. A short time after the
man came down and went out but as the
girl did not appear, an investigation fol-
lowed which resulted in finding the woman
lying in u pool of BLOOD unconscious.
BLOOD was gushing from ghastly wound
on the temple while her body was covered
with cuts more or less severe. Upon being
brought back to consciousness the victim
told her story. She had fallen asleep and
while sleeping the man had bound her hand
and foot just as he had her securely bound
she awakened and attempted an outcry, but
the stranger graspod her by the throat, then
pulling revolver from his pocket, struck
her over the head until she became uncon-
he took all the money in the room, about 81,
gold watcn anu chain and jcwelry and
even slipped the rings from the girls hand.
Medical aid was at once summoned but the
victim was so weak from the loss of blood
that she could not revive and died this
morning. The girls is a well known charac-
ter about Covington resorts, although only
about eighteen years of age. Ida Kildare
was not her real name, but even when dying
she refused to divulge her real name. She
said she mad a mother at her home, but re-
fused TO say where her home was. The flu
neral was held to-day. No clue leading to
the apprehension of the man who did the
deed has been found. He was seen emerg-
ing from the house, coming directly acress
the pontoon bridge to this city. Although
the city has been thoroughly searched no
trace of the murderer has been found.
1t was learned today that the girls real
name was Ida Stewart and her father. Will
lam Stewart, n prosperous farmer lives at
Calf, ILL., A telegram was received from him
to-day forbidding shipment of the remains of
the girl and declining to do anything what
ever.
The coroner's jury to-day found that the
glrl came to her death at the hands OF an un-
known party,
