Mi.aouri stiI1 Cuttinr Away.

NEBRASKA CITY. Neb, Oct. 13.-(spe-
cial.)-The Missouri river, at Barney, a
station five miles below here, has been
giving the Burlington railway considerable
trouble all this year and now the river
has cut in within forty feet of the main
line track, which has been moved back
twice. 1t is now intended to place the
track up on the bluffs so as to be out OF
danger, but this will require a large
amoun Of work and a force OF men kept
at that point to watch the track and
protect it. The river has cut away several
good farms at this point and it looks as
il several more were going to satisfy the
greed of this turbulent stream. During
the last five years the river has changed
more than two miles at this point and
caused the railroad great trouble and
expense.

FENDER, Neb., oct IS-(special.)-
The keeper of the Pende liberty club was
arrested this morning and the goods seized
by the sheriff. The Fender Liberty club

credited with closing all the saloons. His
next field OF operation, he says, is the

Pender preachers and saloons are in the
same boat, in that there are none here
at the present time. The conflict has ended
in the disposal OF both.

novel. Lena Rivers" has lost nothing by
its presentation by the ompany which
played it at the Jefferson yesterday after
noon and evening. The story of the
play IS well known to those who have
read Miss Holiness book and needs no
introduction. Its dramatization has been
accomplished by one who knew well
how to pick out the heart interest features
and situations and so ably portrayed the
scenes most dominant with pathos and
human passions. Miss Reid as Lena -
in the prologue. enacted the difficult part
Of an untamed. wild rose sort Of child
well. and was revelation IN the follow
ing acts which are supposed to be FIVE
years later-when she has bIossomed
out an accomplished and well tutored
young woman. Miss Reid is but u
years old and played her part naturally
and without undue. STACEY afectations.
Henry Gsell as "Durward Belmont ''
was the male character of the bill whose
actions were most closely followed by
the audience. he being the lover Of Lena
and whose doubt of her conaancy was
removed in the final act by an explana-
tion Of her parentage. Miss Kaye as
Granny Nichols" won the sincere friend
ship Of all for the matronly and well mean
ing woman she was, and VIII Sherry a.
Joel Slocum" was effective in the COM
edy part Of the simple country lad, whose
affection for Lena was never dimmed
even when the tongue Of scandal wa.
most busily engaged in besmirching her
character. The company as whole i.
splendid one and richly deserved the
patronage bestowed upon it.-Cofey-
