spring suitings and study the styles.
Miss Ruth Mckinley and Mrs. T. c.
Russell came in from Rye, Colo, last
evening and left on the stage this
morning for Pennington, in response
to telegram announcing the serious
illness of their sister. Mrs. James
Bryant.
We issued an order to unlock the
forms yesterday afternoon and an
nounce the arrival of a new boy at the
home OF Mr.. and Mrs. Otis Orme, but
the pressman said he couldn't stop a
great newspaper as it must reach sub
scribers on time.

evening.
Charley Walters of the brewery re-
turned last evening from Denver
where he reports ten days of unal-
loyed pleasure.
Hon. ]. A. Porter left this morning
for Denver and it is not likely Du-
range will see him for the next three
or four months-until the roses bloom.
The Herald will wager two to one
that it was not SO degrees below zero
at st. Louis yesterday morning, or
any other morning-or half that cold.
We are from Missouri.
The Cold Storage people are GER
tainly doing business-judging by the
way goods are received, always in car
lots. Nothing like having a place to
store meats and poultry. 1t means
taking advantage OF the markets and
then customers receive the benefits.
The lecture by Rev. r. A. Chase en-
titled, THE Yankee and His Notions"
is extra fine. and in addition to the
lecture. instrumental music will be
rendered by Miss Garnitt and Sister.
The sisters come highly recommended.
A rare treat for everybody. Tickets
on sale at Grace's Tea and Coffee
store.
AT last the bundle of paper, five
reams, is coming up and the Sl.25 for
typesetting. 1t has been with this
in view that any attention has been
paid the blow-hard. But return the
paper and all will be forgiven. We
had charged it off to profit and loss.
OF course we are from Missouri, and
knowing the promises made Others
hundreds of times we will have to be
shown, or rather it will take more
than promise to make us believe the
paper will be delivered. Still, it's en-
;ouraging to have promise.
