'kiver to kiver" and like all ad

Team And Wagon Stolen.

A. team of horses and lum Der
wagon belonging to Ross Goolsby
were stolen by, as yet, unknown
parties, on Sunday evening who
did the same so successfully that
no trace of them can be found.
The team was good one and
the wagon was almost new.
The thieves were evidently we'll
acquainted with the premises as
they even broke the lock off of
the wood shed where the endgate
to the wagon was kept; they be-
lieved in taking everything.
Tuesday afternoon it was thought
that a trace of the thieves had
been found between Padonia and
Hiawatha but it proved to be a
false trail.

District Court.

The Miles case is still grind
ing and will probably be on
trial until sometime next week.
Harbaugh and Snow who furn-
ished the sensation at the last
trial have been on the stand
again and told their story of
false witnesses and attempted
perjury. An effort was made to
prevent this testimony in as
much as the Supreme court had
paid no attention to it, but
Judge Raper let it in as he de-
sired to hear the whole of the
case. Mr.. Harbaugh on cross
examination said that he was
in charge of the Miles ranch of
some five or six thousand acres
at a salary OF $1,000 per month
and half the profits. He stated
that when he took charge he
had meyer farmed and knew the
difference between a Jersey and
Holstein COW but that was the
extent of his knowledge. Joseph
Miles has been on the stand
since Tuesday and IS being cross
examined rigidly by Mr.. Webs
ter. The case is exciting but little
interest and is playing to empty
seats. 1t is expected however,
that the arguments will draw Il
full house as Atwood. MahoneV
and Webster are numbered
among the finest speakers in the
west.

Lost a Mule.

In some matters G.. w. Stumbo
of this city has been unfortu-
nate tor some time. Last June
he was among those who went
to Wyoming and hardly returned
in time to spend Christmas at
his home. Immediately upon
his return Mr.. Stumbo purchased
a span of large jet-black mules,
their age being limited at thirty
five years. Last Friday night
one mule quietly passed away
of old age. Mr.. Stumbo con-
graduates himself on the fact
that the loss was not exceed
ingly great as he has been sue
cesstul in securing a contract of
having the hide tanned for half.

a permanent organization con-
sisting of citizens and business
men of Falls City was formed
last Saturday evening for the
purpose of enforcing the State
Game and Fish laws, and to vig-
orously prosecute any and all

ident; F. E. Farington, secretary;

mouth of violators of the fishing
laws, and any person engaged in
this unlawful business w h O
wishes to escape the full benefit
of the law will do we'll to stop at

People YOU Know.

George f. Hinton was here the
latter part of the past week on a
visit to his brother, John Hinton,
for many years a resident of this
city. This is only about the
third time that John has seen his
brother in forty years. At the
age of five years Mr.. Hinton sent
his brother George from New
York to sister living in Cali
fornia, where he resided until Il
young man, when he went to
Wyoming gaining great influence
there in the business world.
The other brother, Will Hin
ton, of Omaha, has charge OF a
gang of workmen on the c. b. q
q. working now at Rulo, and last
Friday he came up from that
place and the three brothers took
dinner together, this being their
first reunion for many, many
years.
The following clipping taken
from the March 2Sth issue of the
Tribune, Cheyenne, Wyoming,
has this to say of Mr.. Hinton:
Hon. George f. Hinton, Law
maker, Business man and Miner.
Every member of the House of
The Ninth Legislature will recog-
nize Geo. F. Hinton, for they all
remember him as sitting on the
safety valve Of the session. AL
though it was his first term as a
member of the legislature he
early showed himself to be a man
of unusual discernment, judgment
and carefulness, applying the
same tests to legislation as he
would to a business proposition.
Being an experienced miner, he
knows enough not to approve a
thing because it looks good" but
with impersonal scrutiny could be
seen treating every bill as though
it were a bit of shiny ore, not to
be passed upon until it stood the
application of the acid of common
sense.
Although born in Pennsylvania
Mr.. Hinton came to Wyoming
from California where his parents
moved when he was an infant.
In 1881 the young man struck out
for himself and came to Wyom-
ing settling at Encampment
where he has since resided. He
has extensive mining interests
there and while he has taken
little interest in politics, his nom
inatiou for the-legislature was an
expression of the high regard in
which he is held by his asso-
ciates.
Mr.. Hinton is a prominent
Mason and has lectured before a
number of lodges throughout the
state.
Mr.. and Mrs. Hinton remained
in Cheyenne some time after the
close of the Legislature and have
made many friends in the capitol
city, both in business and social
circles.

Modern Methods.

We are just in receipt of pro-
spectus of the Nebraska Business
University, the new business
training school secured for Ne
braska City by the Commercial
Club of that city. 1t differs
materially from any business col
lege literature which we have
previously read and contains the
most positive proof of superiority
ever offered by a school. Pres.
Toland does not believe in brag-
ging, he simply states facts, and
the facts are so convincing that
he will undoubtedly open his
school with a full attendance, as
nearly one hundred students are
already secured. Those interest
ed should secure a copy and learn
what constitutes a modern busi-
ness school. 1t will be sent free
by addressing Nebraska Business
, University, Nebraska City, Nebr.
