The Model Clothing House has contracted for a large space in our advertising columns, and beginning next week will have something to say to purchasers of clothing that will prove profitable reading. Watch for the announcement next week. ' A gentleman representing a Minneapolis synaicate, was here a few days ago looking over our irri- gated lands with a view of invest- ing. Our complete system of irri- gation is attracting the attention of capitalists in many of the large cities. A young child of Mr. and Mrs. Joseph- - Donegan was seriously burned Wednesday by its clothes igniting from grass burning in the yard. The greater part of the clothing on the little one was burned before the flames were ex- tinguished. The average rainfall for the month of April for the past twenty years has been 2.18 inches. April, 1S93, was the driest on record, the fall being less than one-sixt- h of an inch. The greatest fall was in April, 1S75, when the record for the month was 6.21 inches. All bicycle riders ot North Platte are requested to meet at John Lemaster's shop March 31st at 7 a. m. to participate in a run to Kearney, or so far as their ability will permit. Guy A. Laixg. Captain. N. Klein, L. B. Isenhart, W. R. Vernon and Joseph Fillion have been elected as delegates to repre- sent Tate lodge of this city, at the state meeting of the A. O. U. W. to be held some time in May, as per the mandatory order of Judge Hall, of the Lincoln district. John H. Clark, who was in town Wednesday, informs The Triuuxe that two cars of seed wheat were received by the people of Garfield precinct a few days ago. The grain was donated by the peo- ple of Will count-- . 111., and came over the Rock Island and Union Pacific roads free of charge. The Nellie McHenry Company was greeted by a very large audi- ence at the opera house Wednesday evening, and the -- work on the stage, which was largely of the variety class, was loudly applauded. The play abounds with fun. There is much good dancing and some fair singing enterspersed. The players were frequently recalled. C. J. Gerkin, of Buchanan pre- cinct, who was in town a day or two ago. tells us that the people of that precinct have received three car loads of seed corn as a result of O. A. Bacon's soliciting tour in Illinois. After securing this corn, he left for Michigan and the chances were favorable to him securing two or three carloads of wheat from the farmers of that state. The tiree cars of corn were shipped over the & M. free of charge. THE JJOBTH PLATTE SEMI-WEEK- Lf TRlBUif: FRIDAY EVENING, MARCH 29, 1895. The county commissioners meet in session next Monday. 25yl. The cornet band will probably next week begin its regular summer weekly concerts. Price & Gauntt have recently added an iron lathe and a corundum wheel to their blacksmith establish- ment. A carload of sewer pipe, con- signed to the county commissioners, arrived Wednesday. It will be used for road culverts. Don't forget that a new dentist will open an office in McDonald's block about April 15th. Give him a call. Denny Redmond has not yet shaken North Platte dust from off his feet, and we believe has not yet decided whether he will go to Okla- homa. We are requested to announce that there will be work at the Red Men's hall next Tuesday evening and that a full attendance of mem- bers is desired. John McMichael goes to Omaha Sunday where he will be married next week to Miss Eva Huntoon. He has rented the Peniston house on West Fourth street and is now furnishing it. Colonel Cod expects to leave to-nig- ht for New York City to join the Wild West Show, which opens next month. His friends in this city wish him a prosperous sea- son. Jake Nelson was taken to the feeble-minde- d home at Beatrice yesterday by deputy sheriff Keliher. Nelson was at the institution be- fore, but made a sneak on the offic- ers and came home. Weber & Vollmer received this morning an invoice of bicycle suits, consisting of caps, sweaters, knee pants and hose. These uniforms will probably become popular with North Platte bykers. The Hostetter stock of goods at Sutherland was sold under fore- closure of a chattel mortgage. A gentleman named Campbell, of this city, bought the stock, but later refused to pay over the cash, and the goods are still in the possession of C. W. Burklund, the mortgagee. The managers of the State fair, to be held at Omaha, are arrangements to show makinjr an irrigated farm at the coming exhibition. The president has written I. A. Fort in regard to the subject. This is a tip for the Lincoln County Immigration Association. The entertainment the benefit of the Immigration Associa tion is not reaching a head very rapidly. It was hoped to secure Col. Cody to do some fancy shoot- ing, but that gentleman's time is so fully occupied that he cannot comply with the request. If the weather regulator up in the Odd Fellows building don't give us rain within ten days he might as well look for another job. AYe are compelled to admit that as a rainmaker Mr. Piercy is not satis- factory to the people and he may be requested to resign. Rev. W. E. Hardaway is an- nounced to deliver a lecture on Fri- day evening, April 5th, at the Sunday- -school convention to be held in the Methodist church at that time. Rev. Hardaway is a pastor of the M. E. church at North Platte, and we Despeak a pleasant and profit- - ble evening for all who attend. Ogalalla News. Paxton & Hershey have so far erected between thirty and forty houses on their irrigated lands, all of which are, or will be, occupied. Some of these farms have been sold and others leased. Supt. Seeberger, of the old ditch companv. savs a fellow who has not been up the river for six months Is almost un able to locate himself, owing to the many improvements which have been made within that time. The story circulated in the Chicago papers to the effect that Sam Wo Tai, a Chinaman, is a candidate for mayor of our boring town for neigh of Lexington, is empatically denied by the people of that town. It is true that a petition nominating tue celestial tor mayor was circulated, numerouslv sijrned and filed with the citv clerk, but the whole proceedings were in the nat- ure of a joke. Col. Cody has been selected as president of a syndicate of capital ists who will construct some gigan- tic irrigation enterprises in the Shoshone basin in northwestern Wyoming. This syndicate, which is capitalized at $2,000,000, has se- lected 300.000 acres of the 1,000,000 acres recently ceded to the state of Wyoming by the United State, and will construct a series of irrigation ditches which will be fed by the Big Horn river and the mauv trib-utari- es of that stream in the basin. E. Vandcrveldt, of this city, has been offered the position of con- struction engineer and it is quite likely he will accept. The prelim- inary surveys will be run the early part of next month, and the inten- tion is to have the ditches con- structed thi-- season. y PRIZE AD. JSO. Hello! there Sonny, Avhere are you going?

Butler Buchanan transacted bus- iness in Lincolh' several days this week. C. M. Newtqu has improved the appearance of his residence by hav- ing it repainted. Division A. of the young peo- ple of the Presbyterian church will be entertamsd by Judge and Mrs. Hinman this evening. Irrigated lands of Lincoln county comehigh. Recently a quar- ter section of land near Hershey sold for $5,200, and an eighty-acr- e tract for $3, 000 . .Attorneys Rhea and Grimes, of North "Platte, were in Ogalalla Saturday taking deposi- tions in the case of Libbey vs. First National Bank of North Platte. This case was tried Tuesday at Chappell. Ogalalla. Senator Akers and Representa- tive Harris have been confronted during the past few days with dozens of petitions from their con- stituents demanding the repeal of section 2034 of the irrigation bill. Not only have these, petitions been sent, but resolutions passed at public meetings as well. Men who were instrumental in the nomina- tion and election of Messrs. Akers and Harris have filed strong pro- tests against the passage of the measure without repealing or mod- ifying section 2034. In the lace of these petitions, ""(.resolutions and protests, will Akers and Harris defiantly disregard therdemands of the people of 'their1 respective dis- tricts, and vote the bill as it stands? If they do, their reception when they return home will be any- thing but pleasant to them and they ever af terwards will be pointed out as men who betrayed their RAILWAY RESUME. W. C. Mellthrop, it is said shortly go to Sidney to take a 9. our will posi- - tion as watchman;. Chas. Rossow,7of the round-hous- e force, left this morning for a visit with friends in Iowa. Engines 694 and 685 were taken intojthe shops yesterday for repairs. The 647 has been sent to Omaha for a new fire box. A great deal of stock from the west is being shipped to the eastern markets. This is rather unusual at this season of the year., A man named McLauchlin takes charge of the coal schutes in this city April 1st and foreman Carlson will be transferred to Denver. N. Klein has been ed as clerk in foreman Russell's office, and C. L. Adams is occupying his old desk in the division foreman's office. Engineer Branson and fireman Griffin, of the First district brought in the 1033 from Cheyenne yester- day. They had taken the 877 to Cheyenne a few days before. J. T. Stuart received a telegram Wednesday announcing the death at Westville, Ind., of A. E. Rey- nolds a former fireman and engi- neer of this city. "Screw" Rey- nolds, as he was better known, was a very popular young man while a resident of North Platte, and many friends will regret to learn of his demise. He was a member of Divi- sion 88, B. ot L. E. and carried an insurance ot 51500 in that order. A pneumatic fire-lighte- r, made for the purpose of starting fires in locomotives, is "one of the latest devices placed in the round-hous- e. By means of compressed air a spray of coal oil is forced7 through a small burner, which, when lighted, is placed beneath the fire-bo- x and ig- nites the coal. Br this machine a fire can betarted at a cost of from four to six cents, where heretofore the cost of the wood and labor has been about seventy-fiv- e cents. Advertised Letter.

Triijuxe: Allow me a brief space in your paper to reply to a communication in your last issue, signed "Old Soldier." 1st. If "Old Soldier" will study his dictionary he will find quite a difference in the meaning of the words "part" and "member." We do not claim to be members of the G. A. R.; but as our membership is limited to moth crs, wives and daughters of honora bly discharged soldiers and sailors who served during the rebellion, by that glorious heritage of birth or marriage, we arc a part of the G A. R., and were so recognized by the department convention of the G. A. R. held at Hastings last month. 2d. Would "Old Soldier" have his ! readers infer that he would ignore "nearest and dearest?" But no matter how he may feel toward us, we have for all old comrades only a feeling of "Fraternity, Charity and Loyalty." 3d. We de not ask to be auxilary to the G. A. R., as we feel it is more honor to be part of that grand or- ganization. A Member of S. A. Douglas Cir- cle No. 20. FOR SALE OR TRADE.

A REPLY.Ed. Triijuxe: Allow me a brief
space in your paper to reply to acommunication in your last issue,signed "Old Soldier." 1st. If "OldSoldier" will study his dictionaryhe will find quite a difference in themeaning of the words "part" and"member." We do not claim to bemembers of the G. A. R.; but asour membership is limited to mothcrs, wives and daughters of honorably discharged soldiers and sailorswho served during the rebellion, bythat glorious heritage of birth ormarriage, we arc a part of the GA. R., and were so recognized bythe department convention of the G.A. R. held at Hastings last month.
2d. Would "Old Soldier" have his! readers infer that he would ignore
"nearest and dearest?" But nomatter how he may feel toward us,we have for all old comrades only afeeling of "Fraternity, Charity andLoyalty."

ganization.A Member of S. A. Douglas Cir-
