The Neihart Gun club held their
weekly shoot at their grounds on Sum
day last. The main contest was for the
final possession of the gold button
which was o by Pete MCGOWAN on a
tie with S. l.. Crane. To break this tie
some pretty and exciting shooting was
INDUCED in.
Wackcrlin did some excellent shoot

Considerable amusement was furnish.
ed the spectators by the brilliant though
at times hazy and uncertain shooting of
Harrison, Chace and Steve Pierse. Chace
after some sixty odd shots broke a sau-
Ger and flushed with success he dared
Harrison to enter the lists against him.
Harrison selected a gun, the band began
to play and Henry Sutton sang out, "All
right" A boy on the box car said he
hit the pigeon, but the umpire and the
spectators had fled. He retired covered
with glory but complained that the gun
kicked and induced Steve Pierse to take
his place. Steve borrowed some car
tridges from Ed. Young and took his
place at the mark pale, though determ-
ined and smiling. The band again
played and the signal given to shoot.
He waited too long and the first bird
got away unframed. He broke the
next but after that the sound of Wack-
erlin's gnn disturbed him. He was de-
clared out by the referee and Chace was
though to he the winner by a record OF
two dead birds and ninety eight lost.
The club is about to erect a handsome
little pavilion for the use of the ladies a,
their grounds.

The Death Of Special Deputy Sheriff
WIN. RAIDER.

Through the kindness of Deputy Sher-
III E. L. Murphy we publish a letter
written by County Treasurer j. c. Tip
ton to him regarding the shooting of
William RAIDER which is the latest, best
and most authentic accoun on this sad
affair. The letter reads rs follows.
W. SIS, Mont, May 10th 1898.
f. l.. Murphy,
Dear Sir:-I wrote you yesterday, say
ing that VIM. RAIDER had been shot
while pursuing Gay and Gross, which
was too true 1t appears that RAIDER
and Constable Westbrook struck their
trail about 3 o'clock in the afternoon,
and came suddenly on the two desperate
men, who were no doubt lying in
wait. RAIDER received one shot in the
back ranging upward and coming out
little below the left nipple. Westbrook
returned tho fire and then escaped on
RAIDERS horse. leaving both guns. Gay
and Ross carried the body two or three
hundred yards and cashed it in a clump
of bushes where it was found and
brought in last night.
OMAR has about 100 men in the
mountains between the Mussellshell and
Big Elk and reports to day that they
have them surrounded and that one of
them has been wounded. Westbrook is
with the party and we are unable to
give full particulars, he being the only
one present at the shooting.
write you this hastily, thinking you
would be anxious to learn something
more definite. Mrs. RAIDER and family
will be in today. 1t is sad.
J.. c. Triton.
In the death of William RAIDER
Meagher county loses one of her best
and bravest officers. This was not the frs,
time in arresting desperadoes that he
has faced death, but with that wonder.
full vol -headedness of a true officer, h
has brought many such to justice at tn,
muzzle of the gun. He made man,
friends while in this camp and will Ions
be remembered for his many good acts
1t is hoped that the murderers will soor
! be lodged in Jail.

In The matter 0fthe Dld tor Stonec cross

Alderman Kyle called attention to the

the af placing manure and other

Plant Trees.

Arbor Day is near at hand and the ad-
monition to plant trees is in order. The
day is peculiarly our own in Nebraska,
and other states merely follow in our
footsteps. The 22d of April is the day
made by law a holiday for planting trees
and the proclamation of the governor
has been sent out calling the people to a
due observance. It is a magnificent re-
cord that this state has made in tree
planting since Arbor day was established.
The prairies are dotted with young forests
and where nature left but barren plain
and valley, those who have observed Ar
Dor day have developed and beautified
nature until Nebraska is no longer barren
and treeless. The good work that has
been done should only be an incentive
for greater work in future, and the re-
cord of this year should be the greatest
of them all. If every man in the state
will plant a single tree on Arbor Day,
what results will show for it twenty
years hence! If the same zeal is used
this year as in the past it will be added
inspiration for the future that will keep
alive the day and its mission for the
common good of all. Plant trees just as
you would plant money in savings banks
and the trees will accumulate in value
o rapidly than any interest.

Richard Slick, late clerk in the Famous

some time between last Thursday night
and the following morning, and his
whereabouts is a matter of deep impene-

and a surprise to many. 1t is stated that
he was driven to Indianola during the
night and that he took the train east
from that point. 1t is also stated that a
blond-haired member of one of our hous-
es of ill-repute disappeared from her To-
cal haunt of shame about the same time
that Richard vamoosed. Which doubt

A real genuine, all-wool-and-a-yard.
wide business like and economical mayor
and municipal government come high in
this vil1age-but we must have them.
One of the expiring acts of the city pa
triots is an ordinance voting an increase
of salaries-in many cases doubling the
present salaries, which are already exces-
sive for a town of this size. The Offices
of mayor and councilmen should be filled
for patriotic motives and not for pelf,
and in many towns the salaries are moth
ing or merely nominal. The old schedule
for clerk, treasurer and police officers
was ample pay for the services required
and rendered. The new law places an
extra burden of about $500 on this al
ready tax-cursed city, and is nothing
more nor less than an outrage.

Several successful experiments in
steam blowing have been made in this
state this spring, and the belief is gain

a steam engine and gang plows than
with horses. Perhaps the day is not far

break up his land with a storage battery
