Cases for Trial.

Henry Engle was brought in from
Hayes township Monday evening. He
is charged with larceny in stealing
wheat. His case is a sad one. The
man is hard worker and has done
well. A few years ago, however, he
committed the same kind of a crime
and served his term for it. His
father and brothers, who are among
the county's most highly esteemed
residents, sacrificed nearly every
thing for him and have stood by him
loyalty. A wife and two small chill
dren are now suffering for the fathers
crime. 1t is difficult to tell whom to
pity most-the son possessed Of so
unnatural mania or the family
which has the hard burden of his
misdeeds to bear His case will be
heard before Judge Quinn June 1S.

Lightning's Quick Work,

During the storm Monday night
Lightning got in its work on the
house Of .. T. Fair in Buckeye, three
and half miles northeast. The
family was asleep and about A O'Clock
the lightning smashed the chimney,
ripped n hole in the roof and ran
down the water pipes to the cistern
and the situation was exciting for a
minute and gave all II severe shock.
Fortunately no one was hurt although
bricks from the chimney fell on the
bed where the boys were sleeping.

Altogether two and 57-l00ths inches

that creeks and river are bank full.
A large portion Of the population
visited Mud creek and saw the waters
higher than in two years. In the
evening the water began falling.
The creek is backed up a half mile
north of the river outlet and the
same condition exists with the
Solomon river and other creeks. In
places the creek has oyerfowed the
bottomlands but is doing no damage.
The Smoky Hill is on one of its old
time tears and was point Of inter

water has risen about 10 feet and is
still coming up. Fears were enter

ing the flood. The danger is not over
yet by any means and some injury to
the dam is possible when the fall
commences.
Many men and boys are busy with
poles, pitchforks and nets capturing
fish in the old river beds and over
flowed bottomlands. Many large
fish have been taken out already and
the harvest has hardly commenced.
Fish meat will be a drug on the
market for few days.
The improvement in wheat, oats
and corn in the past ten days can
scarcely be realized except by an ex-
tended journey over the county. 1t
is such as makes a fair crop outlook
out of what seemed almost failure.
II July and August are rs favorable
as June Dickinson county will be in
luck once more.

He was removed to the Continental
hotel about I o'clock and II was

through the night. But he was
stronger this morning. A bath and
something to eat had done both the
wayfarcrs good.
The man gives his name as Frank

The pre-eminence of Paine's celery compound over all other remedies could not be better illustrated than in the case of the Turney family of St. Anthony, Ia.
 Mrs. Turney had recovered her health by the use of Paine's celery compound.
 She had suffered from variety of ills, all due to a nervous system improperly nourlshed.
 As frequently happens, the entire fam fly, overcome perhaps by anxiety and care, began to feel run down" and to suffer with the hardest disease in the world to dlagnosis-the trouble they have when they say: Doctor I don't feel we'll"
 The advice of their physicians to use Paine's celery compound, the one known remedy that restores lost nervous energy. creates an appetite, purlfies the blood and builds up the strength of the entire sys- tenn, was followed.

THINGS DRAMATIC.

The Keene nights at the opera house on Wednesday and Thursday. October 80 and 31, promise to be the dramatic events of the season in this city Of all the Richards known to the American stage, it is not too much to, say that Thomas Keene stands preeminently first. Nor is this denying to other actors whom we have delighted to honor great merit in the impersonation- of this faverite stage character the greatest and the worst of the Plantagenets On his ad- vent as star Richard was his first ven ture, and from the first he was recog
 nized as a new and ideal Richard-the Richard of Shakespeare. So great has been his success in this-the greatest of all historical tragedies--that he has been for years the sole representative of the character in this country. MT. Keene has perhaps no rival as a character ac- tor He has made of Richard the most impressive of stage pictures. He has followed his author, the master Shake speare, in his conception. and whether Richard was or was not the bloody ty- rant in reality that he Is depicted in this great play, the world has accepted the portrait, and Keene has, by his talent as with powerful brush, transferred 1t from the page of the poet to the canvass of his own times. In this tragedy Shake speare laid his offering of fiattery at the feet of Elizabeth, who was the grand daughter of that same Richmond who is represented as conquering Richard in personal combat. This is known to be a fiction of the dramatist and in this re- spect. as well as in many of the murders laid to Richards charge. it is highly probable that not half of them have any foundation in fact. Shakespeare makes him kill King Henry, murder the princes in the tower, kill by slow torture his true, loving wife. Anne, and commit many other like devlltries. All this natu- rally gratified Elizabeth, and has stamped the infamy of Richard on the pages of history for all time. As Shake speare drew, so does Keene present with the utmost fidelity, sthis bloody Richard. He is lame. of round shoulders, crook backed, of most seductive tongue to both men and women, plausible in both speech and manner, and thoroughly brave. From first to last the strong lines of the man that can be recalled, except perhaps in Louis XI, as presented by this same great actor, are the unities so perfectly preserved. Keenes Richard is royal murderer of a most magnificent type the type which Shakespeare drew-which must forever set the fashion for future actors. It should be said that Mr. Keene's efforts are bent always in the direction of producing his plays with fine dramatic effects His scholarly taste and experience conducts all rehearsals, which have been made are due solely to his knowledge and Judgment.
 2 MT. Keene will play Richard III here on the first night of his engagement. On Thursday night he will be seen in his masterly portrayal of Hamlet"
