All Our Neishbor. viii Visit us.

The citizens of Chadron are talking
up the project of a big excursion to
visit Hot Springs in the near future.
In speaking of it the last issue of the
Journal of that city says: The people of
this city could go up on the morning
passenger Saturday morning, return
ing the same night or Sunday night
and the railroad company would give a
rate of one fare for the round trip. 1t
would be delightful outing and it is
a certainty that everyone who partici-
pated in it would return home more
than delighted. The pleasures of a day
in Hot Springs have to be enjoyed to
be appreciated, and no one fails to ap
preciate visit to the famous resort,
with it's commanding hills, it's elegant
hotel, it's famous plunge bath and the
delightful shady retreats in cliff and
dell. Talk up Chadron Day at Hot
Springs and let this city be represented
there in surprisingly large numbers.

Editor. on a Tour.

About forty representatives of the
Wolverine Press association, the Ohio
Press association and the Western
Pennsylvania Press association were
visitors in our city on Saturday of last
week. They came in on their special
Pullman car "Warwick," which they
had chartered for their entire trip, via
the Elkhorn road. They left Chicago
on Tuesday, came to Omaha and spent
u day and Il half taking in the Exposi-
tion, and, cutting off day of the time
allotted them there, on account of the
extreme heat, they made the run for
Hot Springs and spent the day here
which was not on their itinerary. One
half of party took rigs and went out to
Wind Cave to explore its beautiful and
mysterious depths and those who re.
mained here amused themselves bath
ing i'll in the plunge and taking in the
town generally. They went to Dead
wood and Lead Sunday morning and
remained there until Monday evening
when they took up their way home
They were jolly and intelligent look
ing set of men, and as mono of them
had ever been in the Hills, the trip was
quite revelation to them. They we're
very much pleased with Hot Springs
and went into ecstasies overourplunge
bath. Most of them stopped at the
Evans, and that popular hostelry gave
a complimentary dance in their honor
on Saturday evening. They we're chap
eroned by Mr.. w. H. Guerin. of De
troit, general passenger agent for the
Northwestern for the state of Michi
gan, and the party spoke in the highest
terms of his ability in that capacity.

A Washington Memorial.

Last Saturday afternoon at the resi-
dence of Col. Kellar, some Of the rep
resentative people of Hot Springs were
introduced to Mrs. Ellen A. Richardson
of Boston. Mrs Richardson is the presi-
dent of the George Washington Memo
rial Association, an organization hav-
ing for its object the erection of a me-
mortal building to Washington, which
shall be dedicated to educational pur-
poses. 1t is news to many that Wash
ington left in his will bequest to
found great National University, and
it is time the mature student of history
as we'll as the little school children
have broader conception of his eX-
alted character.
Mrs. Richardson not only geve a
graceful, womanly parlor talk, explain
ing with clearness the object and life
of the association from it's beginning
to its present, but she exhibited fac
simile of the will which expressed elo-
quently the Importance and sacredness
of the work; a work not of the dead
past, but of the living present. This
movement has the support of EX-Gov-
Hoyt. of Massachusetts, Chief Justice
Fuller, Edward Everett Hale with
hosts of other distinguished men. who
have been interested in it for many
years, and who finally put it into the
especial care of the women of the re-
public. The marvellous growth of the
movement within one year, testifies to
the growing love and reverence of the
! people for the Father of his country,
and testities also that the time is ripe
for the perfect fultillment of his
wishes. If he felt the need of Ma
tional University for the infant repub-
lie, how much moro would he feel it
now in its manhood. With the inspi-
ration of this thought Mrs. Richardson
and her co-workers have organized
forty -four states since last Au gust and
has gone far towards ultimate success.
They expect to lay the cornerstone on
the ground mentioned in the will, on
the one -hundredth anniversary of
Washington's death.
South Dakota is already in advance
of some of her sister states much older
and there is now movement in our
own town towards local organization.

CHAPTER OF ACCIDENTS
An Unusual Number of Painful and Some

Single Week

An Unusual Number of Painful and Some
Almost Serious Accidents For u
Single Week.
Tom Chessman received an injury to
his right hand on Tue sday that will
lay him off for few weeks, if it don't
cripple his hand permanently. He is
working on the B. & M. section, and
was clearing away the dirt with his
hand, while Albert Peterson struck
with pick. Toms attention was
drawn away, and down came the pick
upon the back of his hand, piercing it
clear through. DIR. Jennings and Emil
Hargens dressed the wound and re-
port the metacarpal bone correspond
ing to the middle finger completely
shattered, but they think the hand will
not be permanently crippled.
On Wednesday a number of families
in the lower town and some of the old
soldiers at the home went to the Chau.
tauqua grounds with their we'll filled
baskets to spend the day picnicking
Mrs. Harlow was there with her chill
dren and had hardly got nicely settled,
when her little son Davie, whom she
had allowed to go swimming back of
the pavilion was severely hurtby being
cut deeply in the leg, just below the
knee. She brought him at once to DIR.
Hoenes' Office and the doctor had to
take number af stitches to close up
the gaping wound. Mrs Harlow be-
lievcs he cut it on broken glass that
was thoughtlessly thrown in there, and
thinks boys should be warned not to
go in there until it is thoroughly
cleaned out.
Monday afternoon little Pearl Will
liams, who lives with her uncle in Cold
Brook addition, was severely wounded
through the careless handling of fire.
arms. Her uncle Lee, young man of
seventeen years, was fooling with u 30
calibre rifle, and just as he had it
pointed toward Pearl, it was accident
ally discharged, the bullet passing
clear through the feshy part of her
leg, between the knee and the hip. DIR
Hoenes dressed the wound, which he
says is wholly flesh one, the bone not
having been touched, and the little suf-
ferer will get along nicely, unless blood
poisoning should set in. OF course
Lee is very sorry, as he should be, but
no amount of sorrow can ease the inno-
cent sufferers pain, and it should be a
lesson against the careless handling Of
fire arms as long as he shall live.
DIR. Hargens was called to Mime.
kahta by telegraph Tuesday morning
to attend a young man who was ser.
ously hurt by being thrown from 9
horse. From him we learn that it is
Albert Bourne, an eighteen year old
brother of Charley Bourne. He was
out riding after cattle late Monday
night and was thrown from his horse
and rendered unconscious when about
a half mile from home. His brother
thought he had stopped with some o.
the neighbors and the poor
fellow lay out through the storm al
night and was not found till next morn
ing at 8 o'clock. He is suffering from
concussion and confusion of the brair
but there is no fracture of the skull
At this writing he still lies in stupor
occasionally rousing enough to recog
nize his friends and then relapsing into
Inconsistencies again. The doctor
thinks he will recover.
