The indications are that the city cleo

city. But the "slush fund" will not pre-
vail, nor will the i'll gotten gain of fallen

The McCook club room was entered,
Friday night, by unknown persons
who were intoxicated or lost to all sense
of decency, and the various departments
we're befouled in a most disgusting and

disorder inaugurated. 1t seems to be al
most incredible that such acts of vandal-
ism should be perpetrated in this civil
lied age.
The "1aying on hands" for complaints,
especially in children, is taking the place
of Christian science. A McCook mother
cured her boy of the cigarette habit with
one dose. She laid her left hand on the
neck, her right hand on a substan-
tial slipper-and then laid the slipper
where it would do the most good. 1t
effected a cure and a relapse is not looked
for.
This community was surprised and
saddened by the news of the death of
Mrs. Joseph Spots, which took place at

them all hearts go out in p~rofoundest
The funeral will occur on
Sunday, if the remains can be preserved
until that date.

anything except their ears; are the most
sychophants in the profession; are
generally awful examples of the black
mailing class of newspaper frauds, and
