GAVE FINE CONCERT.

Tue PaM0ee Rock band arrived in
the city according to schedule Satur-
day evening, although Leader Pete
NcKecAnie was docked 80 minutes
pay On account Of being IN car that
had blowout a few miles west Of
town. About thirty members Of the
band were present a few Of the boys
being unable to get away on account
Nt tAsir work, but no one could evel
have told that some Of the principles
%ers missing, for the music that the
aggregation put up was simply fins
and was thoroughly enjoyed by the
large crowd present. We doubt Il
there Is another town in the state
the size of Pawnee Rock that has
anywhere near as good a band, ant
tie citizens Of that town and commu
0ity have every reason to feel prout

Great Bend Ball Team Will Days. Beginning Sunday a Take EN-
NEAR BAD ACCIDENT.

s. B. Giddings has been considerably
the worse for wear this week as the
result Of an accident which befeA hin
at Ellinwood last Saturday evening.
Mr.. and Mrs. Giddings had gone to
Ellinwood ON the noon train for a
visit Of few days with Mr.. and Mrs.
Albert Peters and family, who live
southeast Of that city, and who are
old friends of the Giddiugs family.
Mr.. Peters had been looking after
business matters in the southwest
part of the state and was expected
home on the evening train, so Mrs.
Peters and Mr.. and Mrs. Giddinge
waited to take him out home, but he
tailed to arrive and they started for
home about 1880. The horses had be
come restive from standing so long,
and as they were driving down Main
street, just in front Of the City Drug
store, one Of the horses began to
plunge and kick. Mr.. Giddings, who
was. sitting in the back seat Of the
carriage, jumped cut and started to
catch the animals heads, but in &C.
ing around the animal that was caus.
ing the trouble, the horse again kick
ed, hitting him in the side and groin,
knocking him to the ground and rem.
dering him partially unconscious fol
several minutes. The team was con-
trolled by people who were close by
and Mr.. Giddings was taken to Dr.,
Spiers' office where his injuries were
attended to and word was sent tC
relatives in this city to- come an(
take him home. Mr.. Giddings has {
large and very severe hsuise alone
ibis right side, where he was s:rucl
lby the horses hoof, and also a largt
bruise on his hip which he received
in falling. Luckily fcr'Aim the ami
NAL was not shod, and he was alst
far enough away that he did not re
lceive the full force Of the kick, or =
probably would have killed him. H
has been in bed most Of the tim,
since the accident, and although he
up and around now, he is still yer.
stiff and sore, but is thankful tina
his injuries are no worse. He deer
0 ly appreciates the many hndnesse
shown him by the good people Of E
linwood at the time Of the acciden
and assures them that he will not fc
get their courtesy.

Paving Move.

Sixteenth street in this clay will not
be paVed-at least not at the present

Of the street who are in favor Of

going to keep hammering away at
the proposition until they win out in
the end.
For several weeks past the propo-
sition has been before the city COM
misstoners at every meeting. First,
the ones who desired the paving

argument by having a majority Of
The signers on their petition, but by

PAwNEE ROCK CELEBRATES.
Second Anniversary Of Monument Ur.
yelling Big Success.

All roads formerly led to Rome,
but all roads, Of Barton, STAFFORD
Rush and Pawnee counties led To-
ward Pawnee Rock on TUESDAY and
Wednesday Of this week. on which
days the big Second Anniversary OF
the unyeiling Of Pawnee Rock mon
ument was held, for good crowds
were present on both daFs, although
the attendance this year was not up
to that Of former years, but Great
Bend was we'll represented at the
gathering on both days.
The people Of Pawnee Rock and
vicinity are a wide awake buncn'
who thoroughly, understand how to
well entertain a large crowd OF visa-
tors and make them feel at home on
any occasion, and the fact Is ueVe:
better demonstrated than on the &C.
casions Of these annual gatherings
when the town Is taxed to what
would be more than the limit with or
binary cities Of that size, but they al
ways have live. wideAwake COM
mittee in charge Of the affair who IN
derstand how to keep things moving
SO that dull moments are an unknown
thing, and there is always something
doing every minute Of the day.
The town was beautifully decorat.
ed for the occasion with flags and
bunting and presented a very beau
tiful, appearance, and the business
linen eyid-rced the right spirit by
closing up shop on both afternoons
so that everyone could take part IN
and enJcv the festivities. On Tuesday
morning occurred the official parade
to the Rock and the ceremonies Incl
dent thereto, followed by the most e'
cellent band concert by the Pawnet
Rock and Garfield township bands
The Garfield band Is composed q
farmer boys living in Barton and
Rush counties, and Is one of the bis
aggregations of its kind to be founE
anywhere in the state and the boy
received many flattering compliment;
on their appearance and music. Pei
McKechnie's bunch Of musicians ar
. always prepared for an occasion o
this kind, but their reputation IS Q
such a high order in this vicinit
: that the people are wont to eTpec
something more than common froC
3 them, and certainly there was no o.
: casion for anyone being disappointe
q for they were at their best, and q
s finer music was ever rendered b
y any band In the state than BY tn
l. Pawnee Rockers on this occasion.
There were amusements in abul
. dance to entertain both the old an
, the young, and in the afternoon th
crowd repaired to the handson
