A Close Shave.

Last Saturdays storm was unusually
severe. The lightning and thunder were
terrific, though but little serious damage
was done in town. Several telephones
were burned out.
earle Champe had a pretty close shave,
though. When the storm burst upon
the city, earle, who was driving the
Red Light wagon, drove back OF the
restaurant to shield the horse as much
as possible. when the lightning struck
some telephone wires near. cutting the
wires and knocking the horse to the
ground. earle received d shock, too,
and landed on the ground. The horse
got up after few moments, however,
and started to run, but Carrie had hold
OF the lines, and prevented the runaway.
earle and the horse are all right now.

Trip to Kansas City.

The editor made business trip to
Kansas City last Saturday. There is
nothing particularly interesting about
that, but we picked up few items of
interest to some of our readers.
When we reached Kansas City we took
the elevated road to Kansas City, kas.,
to see some of the Vrooman stores, and
the first person we met, whom we
knew, was Steve Sturdivan. who was
busy putting up goods for customers in
in Hartford Bros. store in Armourdale-
one of the biggest of the Vrooman stores.
Steve was happy, because he was busy.
He says this store has about twenty-five
employees. This store carries dry goods,
groceries and produce, has a meat mar
ket in connection, and putting in bak-
cry to supply all the Vrooman stores in
the two Kansas Cities, Armourdale and
Argentine. We met one of the Hart
fords, and found him very Enthusiastic
over the big enterprise of Walter Vroo-
man.
We next visited John w. Breidenthal
and M A. Waterman, at the Central State
Bank, headquarters of the Bankers Trust
Company. MT. Breidenthal was busy
until the close of banking hours. He then
took time to give us an insight into his
Trust Company plans. He SAYS they
are having plenty of business.
Upon returning to the Union depot,
we looked about tor some one we knew.
After wandering about in the moving
throng a while, we ran across Walter
Mundell and wife. Walter, it will be re-
mcmbered grew up in Garrett. He is
foreman of printing establishment in
Kansas City, and publishes small pa
per for the Christian churches of the city.
Walter is an ordained minister of the
Christian church, and was pastor OF a
congregation for two years. He sings
in the various churches. Walter inform
ed us that they buried their fve-year-old
daughter, Irma. March 9th. He aays
his sister Emma now lives in San Fran
cisco; his sister Mamie lives in Oklahoma;
Sarah and Bird still live III Ohio; John
and Harry are farming near Omaha,
Neb., and Jim lives in Idaho.
We also met John A. moore, a former
real-estate dealer at Greeley. He is still
engaged in the same business, in Kansas
City.
Will Renzenberger and wife, of Greeley,
who had been visiting friends in the city,
were at the depot, waiting for theft
train.
