The Red Cloud chief., 1894-04-27

SpLESDID.-The hog market 10 still on
the increase. Miner Bros. are surely to
be credited for having brought about a
revival In the hog market in Red Cloud.
For the last few weeks this city has
been the Mecca to which all hog owners
have been coming, the cause OF which
has been the favorable and higher prices
paid for hogs than usual. The firm has
already paid out about $4,000 for hogs
which has given the market here q new
incentive, and hogs have been brought
here from north Of Red Cloud az far az
the county line and as far south as Els
bon. Kansas, by people who have not
brought stock hore for some years. for
what reasons we do not know. The
stimulus in the market IL certainly on
couraging to u people and due praise
should b extended to those who have
caused tho result.
To New FIELDs.-Rev. Melvin Put
man has severed his connection az pas.
tor Of tho Christian church OF Red
Cloud, where he has faithfully worked
for the last three years, and goes to Og.
Cen. Utah, whore he has a call TO FIJI o
pastorate in that city. Elder Putnam is
a fluent aud eloquent expounder Of the
gospel and has built the local church
membership up TO several hundred. Az
an evangelist he stands second to mono
in his church, and that too, as a com.
paratively young man. He has wonder.
full powers OF speech and we believe will
DO . renowned minister Of the gospel be.
fore he lays down the good work which
he has espoused. He will leave many
admiring friends, not only in his own
flock. but among the other churches Of
the city. THE CHIEF hopes no may
reap q rich reward in his now field.
The BAND.-Tho Red Cloud 8. OF "
band is fast becoming one Of the finest
bands in the state. Thoy are constant
ly practicing, and have been for two
years, under the excellent leadership OF
Prof. Hendricks, and arc now very pro-
Acient in their work as their playing
each Saturday evening indicates to the
trained ear. The CHIEF expects to see
tho 8. Of ", band become state rcnown-
cd II they continue to prosper aud pre-
gress as rspidly as they have done in the
last year. We hope they will be diligent
and porsevere to the last to conquer, and
finally reach the goal Of perfection.
