The spirit of loyalty which was mani
tested by our citizens by the ringing of
the welkin, concert, firing cannons, etc.,
Saturday, brought to mind the fact that
the one.hundredth anniversary of the
town had rolled around. As there are
none of the first settlers left at this time,in
all probability. those who pass through
that day will be resting with those of
early times when another anniversary
counts. 1t is hoped there will be a mark
ed change in the way of improvement.
1t is expected the anniversary will be
more fully celebrated in August, as it
has been thought best to defer it to that
time.

Struck the Right Man.

During a visit to Massachusetts a
distinguished author was invited by a
friend to a meeting of an agricultural
society, then holding its annual session
in the town.
The invitation was accepted, and au-
thor and friend took seats near the door.
Nearly every farmer in the house had
something to say. Finally the president,
pointing toward the author, said:
"Eyerybody's given us a talk to-
night, except the farmer down there by

sion, and rising he said:

A NIGHT SONG.
Under the white moon. Nita,

Under the white moon, Nita,
The lilies lie awake,
And red as blood in flower and bud,
And all for your sweet sake,
The eager rose o erleaps the close
And climbs the columned wall
To hide his face in the drifts of lace
That over your lattice fall.
The dead sweet scent of the woodbine
Some languid breeze hath stirred,
And out Of the dark, dew haunted park
Floats the pipe of a restless bird,
And far and faint the gurgle and plant
OF the wood brook sounds alone
AS listen and pine for some answering
sign,
Some whisper Of thine, my owni
lie with the lilies, Mia,
Under thy lattice bars,
And the infinite night bfims over
With the glory of moon and stars,
And the wooing woodbine's passionate spice
Out of the darkness blows
And faints and dies with the mingled signs
OF perfumed lily and rose.
Yet rest thee, my beloved. since
No prayer of mine may win
The crystal walls of slumber
That shut thee softly in.
But, oh, that the mystic angel
Who keepeth the pearly key
OF sleep would open some door OF dreams
And lead thee, sweet, to mel

Successful Grasshopper Catcher.

The grasshopper catcher successfully
tested by Professor Golf of the Wiscon-
sin state university station consists of a
sheet iron shallow trough, 10 feet long
and feet wide, with canvas back 4
feet high, which extends over and in
front of the ends. The trough is nearly
filled with a cloth saturated with kero-
sene, which is also used on the canvas.
The machine is either pulled or pushed,
and the hoppers, in trying to escape,
strike the canvas, fall into the trough
and are stupefied or killed by the kero-
sene. The best results are obtained
when the grasshoppers are young and
unable to fly.

Grass For Lowlands.

Sow the grasses on the rye and cover
them with the harrow. Do this as soon
as possible after the ground is dry in
the spring. Sow timothy, red top and
alsike clover. Use four pounds of timo-
thy, three pounds of red top and three
pounds alsike clover per acre. These
three varieties go nicely together. They
all flourish best on low land. The over
flow should help rather than harm
them, and they mature about the same
time. 1t is somewhat surprising that
alsike clover is not more grown when
we call to mind its affinity for such sit
uations and the excellence of the hay
which it produces. Prairie Farmer.

CYCLING NOTES.

correspondent of the L. Il. W. Bulletin.
after practical experience in the matter,
enthusiastically endorses winter cycling as
follows: Next to a cinder track, trodden
snow, or ice a little roughened, makes surface
on which rubber tires will bite. The snow
packs down evenly on country roads, and the
sleigns iron them; sand, mud and frozen hill
locks disappear, and the average condition for
wheels is better in winter than in summer
Crevices and interstices are filled up and the
highway made level. The bicycle wheels will
travel ten miles an hour, while, from the
exercise-in your ulster, with the mercury three
below-you are rosy warm. AS for coasting
Try it on your bicycle, over the crust or down
the snow-h hill; and you can pedal back. On
lake or river. over glossy or pebbly surfaces,
you can skim on corrugated tires like the
wind. The skaters. distanced, will wish to
mount wheel with you. Only, on glare ice,
do not turn too sharply; rather veer, or you
may slip
The lesson taught by cycles has been adopted
by carriage builders. The universal adoption
of pneumatic tires for trotting sulkies and of
solid rubber tires for coupes are notable ex-
amples of bicycle innovation. At Berlin,
Leipsic and Dresden the public cabs have cy-
clometers attached SO that passengers can
check the exact distances travelled and pay

OF this city made the run to Philadelphia and

BUFFALO BILLS START.

Mere Accident Made the Well Known
Scout a Snowman.
An old Nebraskan was speaking of
Buffalo Bill recently, and incidentally
he told how he came to engage in the
show business.
Cody was for years government
scout on the western plains, +" said the
Nebraska man. land it was when he
conducted the buffalo DISCRIMINATING ex-
petition for the entertainment Of the
Grand Duke Alexis in 1871 think it
was-that he got his name. Cody at
that time distinguished himself by the
number of buffaloes he killed, and there
by earned his cognomen, which was
given him by the duke. While he was
well known as scout he would prob
ably have never been widely known as
a Snowman except for an accident.
"It was in 1881 that the people of
North Platte, Neb., near which town
was Cody's ranch, decided to celebrate
the Fourth of July, and at the sugges-
ton of John Keith, who is wealthy
ranchman at Sutherland and North
Platte and formerly claim adjuster of
the Union Pacific, they selected a wild
west show. Cody was one Of the men
most prominently interested in the
scheme, and to him was left the work
of securing the cowboys and Indians to
help out the show In North Platte at
the time was an old stagecoaeh owned
by Jim Stephenson of Omaha, who was
the proprietor of the Deadwood- Sidney
and other western stage lines. At the
suggestion of Cody the Indians were to
attack the coach and be repulsed by the
cowboys and soldiers.
''That Fourth was the hottest cele-
bration of American independence ever
seen in Nebraska. The Omaha papers
had men to cover it, and it attracted a
I'D from all parts Of the,west. The
