NARY E. LEASE.
Norris to Be honored with
Visit from this Noted Lady.

Some time during the latter part OF
this month Morris will have an OPP
portunity to witness and listen to one
OF the most noted female orators of
the present era, Mrs, Mary E. Lease
of Kansas. There is probably not an
other woman on the face of the earth
that has been, and is, talked about
and is as widely known as Mrs. Lease.
The date of her coming has not been
decided upon, nor the topic on which
she will speak. Mrs. Lease has stuck
to the Populist faith thru thick and
thin for several years, and will prob
ably speak on something relating to-
Populism, It is her belief and active
part she has taken to carry out her
belief that has held her up to the world
to be ridiculed or praised, as the case
might be, and made her famous the
world over. Date will be announced
later.

The Betts=LoSee Co.

One of the coming events Of the
season, and one that is to mark pro-
gressive era in the history of Morris is
the opening of the Goods new opera
house, which will formally take place
on the 18th, 14th and 18th of Septem-
Der. The company that has been en-
gagged to do honor to the occasion is
the Betts-Losee Co., one the best dra-
matte troupes in the Northwest. The
opera house has been reprinted and
fixed up with first class scenery. The
scenery lis expected here this week or
next week at the outside. Taking in
consideration that it is the first opera
house the town has ever had, and the
high standing of the troupe, the ca
pacity of the house should be we'll
tested, and no doubt will

Murder of an Unknown Nan
Near Hancock on a Train.

One of the coolest blooded shooting
affairs on record took place about two
miles below Hancock last Wednesday
night about midnight on west-bound
empty cattle train Three men, who
had been working around in some of
the neighboring towns at odd jobs,
were riding in a car about the middle
of the train, and when within two
miles of Hancock five men entered
the car and ordered the three to hold
up their hands. One of the three was
lying down asleep at the time, and
was awakened by the noise and loud
talk and started to get upon his feet.
AS he raised his head one of the ruff
fans shot him, the bullet entering
the left eye, causing instant death.
They also robbed the other two and
ordered them off the train. One did
not move fast enough and they threw
MIN OH. Inc train was gong up
heavy grade, and it did not.injure
the men any in jumping off. The
two men then went to Hancock and
notified the authorities, who also mott
fed the coroner. DR.. Hulburd and
Attorney Bicknell went down Thurs
dav and hold an inruoct Tho train
men were summoned Friday, but
could not place any light on the
affair, as they did not know of the
shooting till they reached Brecken-
ridge. It was too dark to give any
kind of an accurate description of the
men, and it is not likely that the
culprits will ever be brought to justice
There was nothing on the murdered
man to tell who he was.

FRIGHTFUL ACCIDENT.
Andrew Peterson Instantly Killed
by Falling Plank.

Andrew Peterson. a resident of
Cyrus, was instantly killed last Satur-
day afternoon while working on s..
Stewards elevator at Cyrus by being
struck on the head by falling plank.
Mr.. Peterson was working by himself
in a bin in the elevator, and no one
knew of the accident until late in the
evening. He did not appear at home
for supper, and after waiting some
time and he did not come, inquiry
was instituted and search of the ele-
vator made. He evidently had been
working in a stopped position when
the plank fell and struck him in the
back of the head, carrying his head
to the floor with it and crushing the
skull. He was only going to work an
hour longer, when he intended to quit
and go out stacking grain. He was
an industrious and respected citizen
of Cyrus, and leaves a wife and one
child to mourn his departure. The
family and relatives have the sympa-
thy of the entire community.

Demand for Land.

At present there is quite demand
for Stevens County land, and espe-
cially improved farms, MrJ .A.John-
son informs us that he has several in
quiries for improved farms in this
county near town, and could dispose
of almost any quantity. People are
just beginning to wake up to the
fact that Stevens county land is about
the best there is in the state and are
reaching out after some oft,
It is claimed by all farmers and
good judges Of farm land that any
place where blue joint grass will thrive,
there you will find your best farms.
If that is fact, then Stevens county
is certainly in the lead. The John
Grove Land Company have some blue
joint grass in their Office that was cut
in this county this year measuring
seven feet ten inches in height. This
specie of grass can be found growing
any where in the county, and not only
that, but everything else will grow
and thrive here, and that is the rea-
son that our land is in demand.

Diphtheria--ScarIet Fever.

Two cases Of diphtheria were re-
ported at F. NJ. Hesler's, one ofwhich
proved fatal, the youngest, Herbert,
having died last Monday morning.
Tue other patient is reported better
and hopes are entertained for his re-
covery. The remains of the deceased
were inferred Monday afternoon.
The sYmpathies of the community
are with the stricken parents and rel
atives.,
Two cases of scarlet fever are re-
ported at the residence of Mr.. and
Mrs. M. Wetteland. The cases are
of a mild type and the patients are
doing as we'll as could be expected.
Stringent measures are being adopt
ed by the health board to prevent the
spread of these diseases, and it is
thought there will be no more cases
very soon.

cording to schedule,

COUNTY FAIR.
A Suggestion from the Tribune
Seems about to Bear Fruit.

For the last few years a county fair
has been held in this county every
fall. As the years rolled by the inter
est taken in them was on the decrease
$50 fast that it threatened to develop
in no fair at all. Last year the
TRIBUNE tried to make it plain to all
parties interested that it was impos-
sible to make the fair success with
out other attractions besides NAM
moth pumpkin and few head Of
cattle-or in other words, besides
grain, vegetables, stock, etc.
In order to draw certain class of
people-the young people-to coun-
ty fair, it is absolutely necessary to
have some sort of amusements going
on. And in fact, the fair is flat
failure without them. This year the
management has made arrangements
for horse racing, bicycle racing and
other sports; possibly base ball
game which will. take place on Satur-
day, the second day of the fair, and
we venture to say that the fair this
year will be more of a success, weather
permitting, than it has been since the
side attractions have been abandoned.
There will be several horses entered
for races, and the dollar wheat will
arouse the farmers to take more inter-
est in the fair, and no doubt both
DAYS, oath and 25th, will be we'll at
tended.
