She was a woman of rare personal worth, and was honored and respected by all who knew her. Mr. McOmber has the heartfelt sym­ pathy of a host of friends in this vicinity at his great loss. The funeral was held from St. John's church, Chicago, on Sat­ urday at 10 a. m., thence by C. & N. W. R'y to Calvary.

The judge instructed the jury that if the evidence disclosed the fact that the delinquent had taken the paper from the office, or caused it to be ifso taken they should fine the plaintiff.

THE School in District No. 3, the ylirafield District, taught by Miss Susie f Paulissen, closed with appropriate exer- ' cises on Thursday, June 11th, and the many visitors who were there pronounced the programme a very interesting one and one that did honor to both Teacher and pupils.

They were pre­ paring for the following Sunday morn­ ing a beautiful selection, the first words of which were: "I am a Pilgrim." It so happened that the music divided the word pilgrim and made a pause af er the first syllable. The Soprano sang in a ^ high key, "I am a Pil--•" pod stopped. The alto repeated "I am a Pil--." The tenor acknowledged that he was a "Pil--" and when the bass came thundering in with a like declaration, "I am a Pil--" it was too much tor the gravity of the , singers, and they roared. No amount of practice could get them past the fatal pause without an outburst, and the piece finally had to be given up.--Ex. >adies' Willing Workers Society" connected with the Univeraa'fist Chnrch, will meet with Mrs. O.

Judge Hamer ereateil a sensation at Broken Bow the other day by delivering an oration upon a motion made by a local attorney to eonfirm a real estate mortgage foreclosure: "This docket is covered, page uprfh ^age, with confirma­ tion cases, fife last summer's drouth has exhausted M^e^JTOer's resources, abd he is unable to pay his loans. The ?act« f God, f|or which the people are not respo nsible, has mlueed one-half of them to almost beggary, and this calamity shall not. be made worse by any act of mine. We are asked to tarn 100 farms over to money lenders, and T>00 women and children over to pauperism. It shall never be done in this district while I am judge. The people are not- able to pay, and I will not assist in their being robbed. "Let us wait until a crop can lie raised and all will come out right. If a man be living on his land, or living off of it, and trying to cultivate it, he should have the reward of his work. I will never con firm a sale in times like these if the o wner is trying to mak^ a living on the land. When the people are «mpipfliled to ask aid to procure* seed it would be cruel mockery to deprive them oif the land to How the seed on. I have a right not to confirm sales when property sold does riot bring twojthirds its actual value, and in these caaes it has not brought that amount-. The sale is not confirmed.' --Kearney {Neb.)
