The robins and blue birds have left.
They Went in a hurry last Saturday, on
the edge of a rip-tearing nor'wester.
That was the way our long Indian Sum
mer was brought to a close. A drizzling
rain began fallingi in the morning which
turned to snow later in the day and at
nightfall things took a decidedly hliz-
zardly appearance. A strong gale blew
from the northwest, but the mercury did
not get down much below the freezing
point and nc discomfort was experienced
from the storm. Not enough snow fell
for sleighing and that that did fall lies
in drifts. The following day opened
bright and pleasant as have all the days
following, but the air is an eager and
nipping and the ice mar rubs his
hands in glee,

The anonymous correspondent who has

the newspaper clipping containing an
account Of a strangely lettered hens egg
being found in a nest iii Dakota county,
Nebraska, with the request that it be
published, is hereby informed that the
story is a chestnut Of the worst kind and
a very old II at that, and he should
have sent it to our local contemporary
where such things are eagerly sought for.
II our correspondent doubts the chest

making himself known fix him up an

or admonition on it he wants-and one
that some people could easily believe was
not made by human hands.

dedicated to Mr.. Barnett, manager of the
Chamberlain Burnt Cork Artists, by one
of the company:
From Kinball he came home so Glow,
Where he'd travelled with his show.
Just to learn he was the father of a child;
And TO celebrate it right
All the company did invite,
And they soon were drinking cocktail fas,
and wild.
If at Kimbal1 he'd got news
He'd have soon begun to booze,
And the company would have come in fol
thei, share;
He'd have cried out with a smile,
IN bet you this silk tile
That the baby has his fathers head o!
hair"
CHORUS.
Down went Barnett, into Arkaneas, you bet
Where his board will cost him nix,
For with his family he'll mix;
With his baby on his knees he will Otter
iud them wet,
Dressed in his best suit of clothes.

G. A. n. social.

The Reno Post G. A. r. gave one of
their old-fashioned camp fires at the Ma
sonic Hall on Wednesday evening, and
all were enthusiastic in pronOuncing it
one of the most enjoyable affairs of the
kind ever held in Kimball. Notwith-
standing the inclemency of the weather,
the 'boys in blue" were well represented
from miles around, and the hall was
filled to OVERLOOKING. The commander of
the Dakota G. A. r., George A.. Silsby, of
Mitchell, delivered the opening address,
which was very attentively listened to.
Following this, short speeches were made
by Messrs. c.. j. Maynard, Henry Hilton,
James Cone, Rev. Hardy Wyckoff and
Rev. Thomas McNineh and John N.
Van Horn, all of which were we'll de-
livered and were marked with frequent
and prolonged applause. Special men
ton may be made of the speech of II of
the aforesaid gentlemen-Mr. j. N.
VanHorn-which amounted in substa nee
to LET us eat''-a suggestion which met
WIN Il ear response from all. ooW-
mandcr w. II. Cross acted as chairman OF
the meeting, and at his instigation The
tables were spread with a most tempt
ing repast, which had been previously
prepared, and to which the guests did
| full justice. The exercises We're inter
| spersed with some very NICE music by the
choir and the cornet band. After supper
! a little %sociability was INDUCED in, and
at Il late hour the guests departed feeling
amply repaid for Drawing the cold north
west wind which prevailed, and hoping,
we think without an exception, that
they might meet again OF some similar
| obcasion. without the loss Of even one
link from the chain of comradeship.

The dance giv7n at the opera -house by
the cornet band on Tuesday evening was
not as largely attended as was expected,
but was a very pleasant affair withal.
The cold weather may have chilled the
ardor of those who usually enter into
such entertainments, or perhaps a good
many were sick with a cold. "Pa" Con-
ant served one Of his excellent suppers
to the dancers and did all he could to
make the affair q pleasant one.

The Seed Annual for 1890, issued by D.
NJ. Ferry 4 Co., of Detroit, Michigan has
reached our table. Its cover this year is
especially artistic and attractive, and its
contents as usual, interesting and in
structiye. Ferry's seeds are thoroughly
reliable, and always come true. The di-
rections given in the Annual for the cul-
t~ivation of both flowers and Vegetables are
so full and explicit that no one can fail
of success who uses their seeds and follows
the instructions.
D. NJ. Ferry &Co. are very conservative,
both in offering new sorts and in their
claims for them when offered; but they
take pains to inform themselves as to the
true character of all new varieties, so if
some much lauded novelties are not fond
in the Annual the probability is they
have tested them and found them of no
value.
A request sent to the firm at Detroit,
Michigan, will bring you a copy Of the
Seed Annual for 1890 by return mail.

Inern. Inc colonel was II the DesG-oI SPIT
it's He joked and laughed and told old
stories of love and war; how he was nearly
captured and murdered by the renowned
Nana-Sahib, at CaWnpore; Of his vast poppy
Plantations, and the revenue he derived
from the opium he distilled every year.
Finally we started to walk to where we
had our horses stabbed, and then for a can
ter over the beautiful roads to the bunga-
low fifteen miles away. We had TO 60
through Vicullah to reach our destination.
What a kaleidoscope that native city

wearing nothing but a breech clout, and
the male body servant, with his red turban
and long white jackets; jews from Pales-
tine, PaFsees or fire worshipers, who trav-
eled 5000 miles over desert and mountain
from Persia and carried their sacred fires;
all picturesque, all,in white bordered with
red Or other bright-colors.
well, IN turning corner in Vicullah
we found crowd being hsrangued by one
of the best known fakirs in India. I had
heard hira spoken Of as one who could put
a blight upon you. People called him
Sadi-S&ib, Sadi, my master. Col. Yesger
pushed through the crowd to within few
feet Of the fakir, to whom he said some
thing in Hindestanese It seemed to en-
rage Sadi, who jumped from his little
platform in front Of Yeager, saying:
. 'EngEshman, be careful, or blight may
fall upon you and yours. Tread not upon
the smallest thing Buddha has created, or
it may turn anc sting you
Before 1 could turn and stop him the
colonel had cut the falhir across the face,
and with an oath had shouted, Out Of the
way, you Hindoo pig"
The fabir with blazing eyes said:
" 'Englishman, you viii not meet your
wife. You will not meet your child. Your
plantations viii be devastated; your craven
heart will wither within you. You will
die
The fakir's words were prophetic. l
felt it then, and l also think the colonel
did. We reached the bungalow and were
soon in bed. How I slept that night l
don't know The words, 'Englishman, be-
ware were continually ringing in my ear.
Next morning | went into the breakfast
room and | shudder when | think of it.
The colonel was there walking up and
down with telegram in his hand, his face
drawn, and he looked twenty years older
than he did the night before. With tears
in his eyes he handed me this message:
Steamship Fiago went ashore at the mouth
Of Hoogaly. Your wife and child drowned
l have never seen the colonel since, but
I have watched his career. His poppy
crop was a failure that year and it ruined
him, his bungalow was burned by either
accident or design, and Yeager died within
a twelvemonth OF q broken heart. "-Phila-
