This piece Is an elaboration Of. the IA

many years. The manuscript of this
skit was placed In the hands OF Mr.. Hoo

Eightieth Birthday.

A number of the friends met
at the home of f. H. Young
Monday evening to celebrate the
eightieth birthday of Milo +.
Young, Frank Youug's father.
A very pleasant time is report
ed. Mr.. Young is remarkably
we'll preserved in body and mind
and does not look to be more
than sixty years old. He is an
old resident of the state, having
been a member of the Nebraska
regiment in the time of the Civil
war and was one of the pioneer
settlers of Custer county. The
writer met him first on his home
stead on the South Lopp, Jan. l,
1880. He. then had comfortable
home and from the appearance of
the improvements on the ranch
he had lived there several years.
He enjoys the high esteem of all
who know him.

Electric Lights.

AT an adjourned meeting of
the city council Monday night,
petitions from the first, second
and third wards were presented,
requesting an election be called
vote bonds for the purpose of
putting in an electric light sys-
tenn. The council having found
that more than the required
number of free holders of each
ward had signed the petitions,
the prayer of the petitioners
were granted.
The amount of bonds agreed
upon as necessary to complete
the plant is SIS, 900 and the date
of election is called for Tuesday,
July II.
The question of electric lights
was submitted to the caucus last
spring. There were 200 or more
voters present at the meeting
and the vote was unanimous in
favor of putting in the lights.
The plan is to combine the
electric light plant with the city
water plant, as the same ma
chinery can be used to operate
both plants.
AS new engine is now very
badly needed at the water works,
should the bonds carry, it
will enable the city to provide
one that will answer both pur-
poses.
From the estimates the council
have received on the cost of in.
stalling such a plant, as would
meet the needs of Broken Bow it
is thought that $4,000, in ad.
dition to the electric light fund
on dIwill be sufficient to meet
the expense.

ing she would not live to carry
it through, she made a sworn
statement of allegations against
her husband and set forth to
whom she had given her children.
The father, Theodore Miller,
was present in opposition to
Coulters adopting the children.
A number of witnesses and
dispositions were examined on
either side and the most of the
day was taken in considering the
case. There were a large num-
Der of the citizens of Merna,
where Mr.. and Mrs. Miller
formerly lived and from Coulter's
neighborhood southwest of Bro
ken Bow, present to witness the
trial.
The case was decided in favor
of the Coulters, their petition be-
