large and very fine assortment Of

A coon dive was pulled by policeman
Skinner last Sunday night, and Flor
ence Jones, Lizzie Porter, Ed. Kerr,
and David Washington were brought

each.
A jolly hunting party consisting of
DIR. n. NJ. Wade, Will Dudley, Willis
Sawyer, Will Stanley and Mr. duke
departed the fore part of the week for
the Limestone country for a weeks
hunt. There is no doubt but they will
have a glorious time and return loaded
down with game and experience. 1t
is delightful season of the year for
an outing of this kind.

ductor on the G. St. p. NJ. & o. R'y, is

He arrived last Friday and is already
greatly improved, and expects to soon
be able to walk, although he has been
unable to walk for two years and has
visited many other health resorts. Mr..
Walker is an old friend Of Ed. Pher-
netton.
Last Saturday evening a lodge of

While workmen were engaged IN
digging the bitches at sturgis for their
water works piping they discovered a
cave that the Advertiser thinks out
does any cave ever discovered, not even
excepting our own wonderful Wind
Cave, which is the marvel of the world.
The new cave at Sturgis has been
traversed for a distance Of sixteen
miles and the walls are covered with
stalactltes and stalagmites of .ndes-
cribable beauty, in which respect it
compares favorably with Wind Cave.
N. o. Gentzke, of West Point, Neb.,
has been in the city for several days
visiting with his old time friend, Il. A.
Blunck. MIR. Gentzke is proprietor of
the Nebraska Volksblatt and the Cum.
ing County Advertiser, of West Point,
and the Nebraska Democrat, of Ere.
mont, and in the management of the
three papers he nearly wore himself
out, so that he came to the Springs to
rest and recupcrate. He has been
greatly benefited during his visit here
and thinks there is no place like Hot
Springs. We shall hear what he has to
say through his influential journals.
Not until this week did the SrAl,
learn that a mill was being built down
the valley about two miles, by MIR.
Drain, of Red Canyon. 1t will be a
small one at first, but will grow. 1t
will have one wheat and one corn burr
and do nothing but custom work. 1t
will doubtless have all that it can At
tend to. Farmers have for long
time been calling even for small mill
and they Will be very well satisfied for
the present, and live in hopes that the
demands will be so great upon Mr..
Drains mill that he will soon be glad
to enlarge it and put in more inn
proved machinery. We wish him
success in his new enterprise.

cants for teachers certificates will be
