Falls City Boys Attend.

The boys from this city that
attended the Grey Hound cours-
ing meet at Friend, Neb., last
week enjoyed a very successful
trip and had 4 good live time.
Among them were John Oswald,
Thomas Frank, Robert Rule
and George Holt. Thomas
Frank being the only one that
got piece of money. His win
ming dog, Fighting Fire proved
better than any one dog he has
ever taken to the coursing. Out
OF eighty-one dogs entered in
that one. Fighting Fire won
fourth place in the S1500.00
stake, which is an excellent
showing. There were two
other entries of Falls City
racers, Miss Chappie and Queen
of the Hills. Oswald was TAX
ing photos on the ground floor
as usual, and secured some very
good views of the winners and
best dogs.
Friend is very pretty place,
the surrounding country being
extremely level and an ideal
place for meet as the course
of the hounds can be followed
easily with the eye. The races
began on Tuesday and ended
Saturday with an average at
tendence varying from five to
eight thousand. The next meet
will be held near Kearney and
large attendance is expected
as these meets are exceedingly
popular.
The boys returned Saturday
having realized very pleasant
time and are backed up with an
invitation to "come again when
cherries are ripe

At The Gehling.

Yon Yonson, the attraction
at the Gehling last Tuesday
evening. gave general satisfac-
tion and was good play. The
characters have been selected
with special care and with an
eye to their individual parts.
Yon Yonson, the big Swede,
while seemingly slow in grasp
ing the phrases of our language
had fund of humor which was
at once catchy and interesting.
The mid winter scene of the
Minnesota Lumber camp was
one of the features.
The Lumbermen's guartette
was one of the best that has
been in this city and received
repeated encores. Each singer
was an artist.
The larger orchestra deserves
special mention as their music
was excellent.

District Court.

District court convened in ad-
iourned session Monday after,
noon with Judge Kelligar on
the bench. The first jury case
to be tried was the case of
Amelia Rieger against the heirs
of Henry Rieger deceased, The
court took the case from the
jury and decided it in favor of
the plaintiff, The case will be
appealed to the supreme court.
The case of John Berry of Hum
boldt against Charles Minis for
$1,000 damages alleged to have
sustained in a fight which oc-
Cured in Humboldt in May, re-
suited in a verdict of $500 for
the plaintiff. Gottlieb Schultz
had the title to his land Quilted
in him by a decree of the court
handed down Tuesday.
The motion for a new trial in
the Blieholder case was sus-
tanned for the reason that the
jury while deliberating on the
matter got hold of a statute in
the jury room and determined
that the court was wrong in the
instructions and proceeded to
make a little law of it's own.
The attorney for Blieholder Of
fered to have him plead guilty
to assault and battery but the
county attorney refused to ac-
cept the plea and will put the
defendant on trial again as soon
as possible. Court adjourned
until Monday, the jury being
discharged for the term. Tie
Bode matter will come up on
the motion for a new trial as
soon as Judge Raper can be in
attendance.

Ferd Friedly's sale of Poland
Chinas will be held in this city,
Saturday, October 9th at the
Mettz Sale Pavilion.
Mr.. Friedly is one of the be st
judges of swine IN this part of
the state as his experience with
thorough-breds for the past tif-
teen years has placed him in
touch with all the leading
breeders Of this class.
This is his thirteenth annual
sale and is by far the best Offer
ing ever presented the public.
His herd has always been
headed by the best that money
could purchase. Such grand
sires as Friedly's Mischief of
Mischief Maker cannot fail to
appeal to the best breeders OF
the land, he being perfect type
of the Poland China hog. His
half brother Meddler is the
Worlds Champion.
This is but an index of the
good thing in store for you at
this sale. If you are a breeder
do not fail to attend, a look
means purchase.
If you are a farmer improve
your stock by placing one OF
Friedly's youngsters at the
head of your herd, you will
never regret the act.
Everything goes without re,
serve. Procure a catalogue be-
fore the sale and make your
choice of individuals.
Remember the date Saturd ay
October 27, rain or shine.

Horse Sale.

Falls City can't have a horse
show but it can have good
horse sales to beat the band.
The Margrave horse sale held
here Wednesday was very sue
cessful. Teams bringing as
high as 1895. This sale was
advertised exclusively in The
Tribune and a good crowd was
in attendance. Of course The
Margrave Company has the
stuff, but it is an excellent idea
to tell the people about what
you have when you want to Sc
cure a good buying crowd. The
horses, mares and mules offered
by this company in this sale
and which they have in abund =
ance at the ranch are among
the best animals in the coun try.
Good horses are about the most
valuable asset a farmer can own
as is indicated by the prices
paid at this sale.

When you have a cough or cold
don't ask what is good for i. and get
some medicine with little or no merit
and perhaps dangerous. Ask for
Foley's Honey and Tar, the greatest
