The Baptist people will hold a social on the parsonage lawn nest Thursday evening. S. G. Smith opened his confection- ery store this morning. He ha3 a nice looking place. The woman's edition of. The Tri- bute netted the ladies auxiliary of the Y. M. C .A. a little over fifty dollars. For rent, a six-roo- m house, in good repair, one block east of Central school. For particulars inquire of Dr. N. F. Donaldson. The Ladies Guild will hold a dime social at the Episcopal rectory next Friday afternoon, to which all members of the guild and their lady friends are invited. The Ladies of the G. A. R. will give an ice cream sociable in the room vacated by Heck, Saturday evening, May lltb. Admission ten cents. Every- body invited. Henry "Waltemath, considers that he has well earned a vacation, and accord- ingly will leave with his family next week on a trip to Germany. He will belabsent about three months. Harrington & Tobin have purchased and had erected in the store the large meat refrigerator formerly in use at the Heck market. It will be used for storing butter, eggs, fruits, etc. It is said on the streets that Gus S. Huffman may conclude to be a candidate for county clerk before the pop conven- tion this fall. The populists might hunt around quite awhile before securing a stronger candidate than Mr. H. would make. Two or three farmers who came in after aid Saturday- - got into a squabble over the matter during the evening while in one of the saloons and a fight-no- t conducted on prize ring rules en- sued. The beligerantfi were finally sep- arated by bystanders. It is rumored that unless consumers of city water nre less extravagant in the use of water on tho lawns the company will cut them down to the restrictions provided by ordinance. Such a course would result in considerable inconven- ience to many, and its hoped that con- sumers will be more careful and thus avoid such action on the part of the company. As an evidence of the "New Woman" morement in North Platte it was noticed that one evening last week two gentle- men, wives and babies were out riding on bicycles. The natural supposition would be be that as of old, the babies would te riding with their mothers. Such was not the case, however. The men were taking care of the babies while the mothers rode along in front perfectly free and untrammeled. We more fully, than ever, have rea- sons to believe in the principles of evolu- tion and that North Platte has the honor of being the point where the commence- ment has been made. One of the ladies of the town was called to her kitchen door by a tramp this week and very naturally expected to be asked for food. She was astonished, however, when the request was made for a piece of soap. As soap is one article" that tramps are not credited with using, it is to be pre- sumed that the movement is now up- ward in the tramp circles and an evolu- tion for higher development commenced. We have received notice from a newspaper publisher in Massachusetts that ho will furnish free to all destitute editors in the drouth-stricke- n district of Nebraska a package of winter squash seeds. We have sent for the seeds. and if they which grow, they prob- ably will, starvation will not stare us in the face next winter. A fellow who can- not subsist on squashes for five or six months during the winter season issa tenderfoot and has no business living in the west. The Massachusetts publisher is a philanthropist whose last resting place will be marked by a five ton gran- ite monument. One farmer on the ditch will raise twenty acres of celery this season. It is said to be an excellent paying crop. M. C. Keith shipped a car of line road horses to Omaha Saturday. He is raising a good class of horses and re- ceiving's, very fair price for them. Plans are being made for a couple of new bridges down near Maxwell to 'aid the people upon Brady and other islands, and the South side, to reach that boom- ing burg. If indications are worth anything a certain holdover federal officeholder is liable to hear- - something drop one of these days that will surprise him. There is trouble brewing tor him. The crop of small grain in Lincoln coun ty this year, if the season is favor able, will surprise everybody. Notwith- standing the embarrassed condition of the farmers, the acreage is very large. For the next ten days Broach, the photographer, is making a special low rate of 82 per dozen upon photos. Avail yourself of this opportunity to have first- - class work done by a reliable home artist. Tickets for the operetta of ,4The Three Bears and Golden Hair are now on sale and should be readily purchased. The entertainment promises to be one of the most pleasing ever given in the city There will be a special meeting of the ladies' auxiliary of the Y. M. C. A. at the association parlors next Wednes- day afternoon at 4:30. All members are earnestly requested to be present. Mrs. C. F. Iddings, Prest. John Keliher, who was offered a position in a railroad office at Little Rock, Ark-- , has decided not to accept. Hot weather is not a agreeable to John's constitution, and fearing he could not stand the extreme heat of that section he dicided not to go. Kittell & Benson, the civil engineers, are crowded wifh work this season. In addition to the irrigation canal work they are doing in this county, they have charge of the engineering work on the big canal at Cozad. Mr. Kittell is now at O'Neill on business connected with one of the ditches in that section. A recent issue of the Atkinson Graphic contained the following: w3Irs. Milton. Doolittle and children departed for North Platte last Saturday morning where they will join Milton and make their home for the present, at least. The throng that bid them farewell at the depot certainly attested the high esteem in which the people at Atkinson held this estimable family.9 The'Fremont Tribune sayst number ltiveiy how a man minor who cannot get a dollar and a half f or his can get one hundred and ten dollars for a bicycle, a sweater and a pair of tan shoes. There are a few young men in North Platte who come under the head of the above, and even they cannot or will not tell you how they do it. A Philadelphia relativo of the edi tor writes that she visited Buffalo Bill's Wild West one day week and though tho day was a very wet one the attend- ance at the show was simply immense. Sending her card into Colonel Cody's private car after the performance, she was received by the Colonel with his usual gallantry and with such genuine hospitality that she readily became a great admirer of our distinguished townsman. W. S. Ripley, an experiencee gardener, came down from Denver last week, and after looking over this section has decided to locate here engage in truck farming. He has secured seventy-fiv- e acres of land of B. Beer which he will get in shape for next season's crop, the intention being to plant the entire tract to vegetables. This season he will put out twenty acres of celery on land west of town owned by C. L. Patterson which he has leased for the season. Mr. Ripley has had many years experience in gardening pronounces the soil in this section particularly well for this purpose. J. McConnell, of Somerset, brought to this office yesterday samples of pota- toes which ho raised last season. They are very smooth-skinned- , large in size and possess which make them especially fine eating. On account of the drouth, McConnell succeeded in raising only about one hundred bushels of them. He has this season put in a small irrigation plant with which to water a tract of land planted to fruit trees, grapes and strawberries. He has also put in ten acres of alfalfa, and if it proves successful this season he will sow fifty acres next year. Victor VonGoetz retired from the office of mayor last night after a year of service that has proved very satisfactory to the people. Mr. VonGoetz began bis duties as mayor the determination that his would be an economical one. He was full aware that the debt hanging over the city while not an extraordinary one, was larger than should be, and he also real- ized that the only way it could be wiped out was by a curtailment of the running expenses, w itn tnis in view street worn ana other improvements were kept down to the lowest notch and as a result the expenses of the city have bean, some $1,200 less than usual. Mr. Baker, our new mayor, is a conservative maa and we believe he will follow in the foot steps of Mr. VonGoetz in keeping down the expenses. THE NORTH PLATTE SEMl-WEEK- LI TRIBUNE : TUESDAY --EVENING, MAY 7, 1895. New joists and a new floor will be laid4n the hallway at the the Court- - bouse, lumber for the same now being on the ground. A. L. Davis has been figuring on a bill of hardware to be used in the con- struction of a commodious school house at Juleeburg. A -- second effort will be made this evening to organize a musical associa- tion. The meeting will be held at the Episcopal guild house. The Gordon cornet band gave its initial street concert Saturday evening and delighted a large audience with an excellently rendered programme. J. R. Bangs last week purchased quite a bunch of cattle of the Brown brothers, who have been running a ranch in McPherson county. Broach's special photographic rate will continue but ten days, and it be- hooves you to see him immediately if you wish to take advantage thereof. G. W. Dillardis preparing to branch out a trifie fn business. He is intending to put in a stock of feed, and will buy grain in connection with his coal business A number of exchanges have pub- lished complimentary notices of the woman's edition of The Tribune. Some of these may be published in a future issue of this paper. Colonel Cody has remembered a number of his North Platte friends with 8x12 photographs of himself taken in riding costume. The photographs are excellent work. John Shockensee died at the home of M. Veach, near Sutherland, yesterday of pneumonia, at the age of forty years. The deceased came from Iowa a few weeks ago for a visit to the Veach family. Advertising paper for the Effie Ellsler company was received at the ex- press office several days ago, but the advance man has not yet showed up. The company has asked for a date the latter part of the month. is said to be fairly good at the mouth of the Birdwood. A resident of that locality caught about forty yesterday, part of which were pike. Local fishermen will probably loose no time in trying their luck. The recent rains have caused some improvement in local business, are easier than sixty days ago, and transfers of real estate are growing more frequent. Altogether the situation is improving steadily though somewhat slowly. The board of education held its reg ular monthly meeting last evening, the principal business being a settlement with the treasurer of the board, who is also city treasurer. Willis Hansen was appointed to take care of the school is Buring vacation, and a inexplicable young Tot billswere allowed-w- L washwoman, last English and and adapted! qualities Mr. with administration possible, Fishing collec- tions The local butchers are experiebo ing 'some little difficulty in getting a sufficient, number of good beef cattle to supply the demands of their customors. They have of late been getting nearly all their cattle from farmers between the rivers. A meeting of the graduates of the North Platte High school will be held at the office of the county superintendent on Saturday, May 11th, at 2 p. m. Mat- ters of special interest will come before the meeting and a full attendance is desired. George Nauman during the past season has cured a good many tons of hams, shoulders and side meat, which he has disposed of to the 'local merchants and to the customers of his market. This meat is considered by many to be super- ior to the meats cured by the Omaha packers. The work of repairing the Knights of Pythias ball, recently damaged by fire, has commenced, and will be pushed forward with the utmost rapidity. Some important changes will be made in the hall, among which is an elevation of the roof so as to raise the ceiling three feet higher. This will make a decided improvement, and with new carpets, furniture, and papered walls will make. an elegant and very convenient hall. The lodges which have temporarily been without a place of meeting will be glad to know that the hall promises to be in shape for holding meetings in ten days or so. Y. M. C. A. report.' The following is a statistical report of tho Y. M. C. A. for the month of April 1895: Renewals, 9; withdrawn or dropped on account of removal, etc., 19; new members, 10; pres- ent paid membership, 233; attendance at men's meetings, 93; attendance at men's Bible class, 13; special meetings, 4; at- tendance at entertainments, 146; number of visits to. rooms, 2120; Sundays, 207; baths taken, 452; number of visits of sec- retary to shops, yards, etc., 20; number of visits of secretary and committee to sick and injured, 2; letters written in rooms, 100; books drawn from library, 142; papers on filo during month, 327;. magazine, 22. H. For the good of the fire department it is hoped that the present little squab- ble resulting over the election of a chief will not be fostered and expanded. From the evidence produced before the council it would seem that the election at which the chief and assistant were elected was regularly called, that the attendance was as large as is usual at such meetings, aad that the charge of illegal voting is Bot well sustained. The Tribune has no, choice of chief, any good competent man is suitable for it, and we bcliovo to the citizens at large. It is hoped that the matter wi 1 soon be settled to the satisfaction of nil, and that the standard of excellency which has characterized f he department will be maintained.

Th&re .was a large audience present at the council chamber last evening, and the meeting held was a protracted one; The presence of the auditors was duo principally to a desire to lea rn who the appointees of the new mayor would bo. Mayor VonGoetz rapped the council to order at 8:15 and after the minutes of two previous meetings had been read and approved, the finance committee re ported that they.had audited the books and vouchers of the city treasurer and had found them correct. James Belton, who had requested the privilege of erecting an outside stairwav on a brick block he proposes to erect on Fif fh and Spruce street was notified that the council had no power to act in the matter. The same decision was rendered in the matter of the F. & M. ditch com panyj who had asked for a right-of-wa- y along Second street. Butler Buchanan asked the city to re- imburse him in the amount of 87.70 for overpaid interest on a city warrant, but the council thought Mr. B. should re- cover the amount from the party to whom it was paid. After several bills had been approved or allowed, time was given the clerk to write up the minutes of the meeting, after which the old council adjourned sine die. Previous to adjournment how- ever, Mayor VonGoetz thanked the members of the council for the support they had given him. During his ad- ministration the running expenses of the city had been cu t down over 81,000 and he hoped that the present adminis- tration would be able to make a like re- duction. If it did the city debt could eventually be paid without the aid of funding bonds. Tho mayor then vacated tho chair and administered the oath of office to Mayor-ele- ct Baker who at onco entered 'upon his duty as mayor. The oath of office was administered to the clerk, who in turn administered it to the councilmen. The first business of the council was Lthe electron othe couoeiij undoubtedly week TBEA8URER'S For this R.VX). Thomson was unani TP- mously eleevrd. For tho office of city attorney the name of, Geo. E. French was presented, and the nomination was promptly con- firmed. Iddings requested the postponement of the appointment of city marshal until the next meeting, regular or special. The mayor kindly acquiesced to the demand. For night policeman the mayor pre sented the name of Henry Bretornitz, but the appointment lacked tho neces- sary number of votes for confirmation. no name or j no. .Davis was then pre sented and tbe appointee was confirmed. The mayor appointed tho members of the several council committees, after which the bonds of the mayor, treasurer, police judge, city clerk, and the' two town herders were approved. A petition from residents of the Third ward asking that Ninth street be rounded up or graded, was referred to the proper committee. Lists of tho active members of the First and Third ward hose companies were presented to tbo council and they wero ordered filed. A communication was then read from the city fire department, stating that at tho annual meeting of the fire depart- ment S. L. Bristol had been elected chief and W. II C. Woodhurst assistant chief, and requesting that theso be confirmed by the council. This was followed by a remonstrance against tho confirmation of Bristol and Woodhurst on the ground that they bad boon elected by votes cast by certain parties who were not active members of the department. The op- posing factions were represented to the number of eighteen or twenty, and a short investigation of the matter was held by the council. The matter was re- ferred to a special committee for further investigation. The council then ad- journed. Dr. R. D. Harris, of Ogalalla, has resigned bis position as member of the board of pension examiners and is suc- ceeded by Dr. Salisbury. Rev. Hardaway and several others go to Curtis this week to attend a meet- ing of tho Methodist ministerial associa- tion. Ernest Rema, of Keith county, had his left leg badly fractured last week by being thrown from a horse.

O I C Skirt Daacta at Mi It is sheer nonsense to pretend that the modern girl learns skirt dancing ont of dovotiou to the art All she wants is notoriety and to possess that attraction in the eyes of men which she imagines tho ballet girl possesses. In almost every case 'she dances so badly that there is no excuse for her from the artistic point of view, and if skirt danc- ing is not artistic it is valgar or ridicu- lous or both. In either case it is a fash ion which adds nothing to the diguity of a gentlewoman or to her charm and is. as a rule, an exposure both of had taste and a bad figure. Beautiful worn en do not need such expedients for at- tracting attention. London Graphic. With tke Accent em the Vetera.

Not only is diamond cutting not a specially high paid occupation, but it is one involving a most humiliating system of espionago to the worker.

The Ladies of the G. A. R. will givean ice cream sociable in the roomvacated by Heck, Saturday evening,May lltb. Admission ten cents. Every-body invited.

Henry "Waltemath, considers that hehas well earned a vacation, and accord-

ingly will leave with his family next weekon a trip to Germany. He will belabsentabout three months.

Harrington & Tobin have purchasedand had erected in the store the largemeat refrigerator formerly in use at theHeck market. It will be used for storingbutter, eggs, fruits, etc.

It is said on the streets that Gus S.Huffman may conclude to be a candidatefor county clerk before the pop conven-

tion this fall. The populists might huntaround quite awhile before securing astronger candidate than Mr. H. wouldmake.

Two or three farmers who came inafter aid Saturday- - got into a squabbleover the matter during the eveningwhile in one of the saloons and a fight-no- t

conducted on prize ring rules en-

sued. The beligerantfi were finally sep-

arated by bystanders.

It is rumored that unless consumersof city water nre less extravagant in theuse of water on tho lawns the companywill cut them down to the restrictionsprovided by ordinance. Such a coursewould result in considerable inconven-ience to many, and its hoped that con-

sumers will be more careful and thusavoid such action on the part of thecompany.

As an evidence of the "New Woman"morement in North Platte it was noticedthat one evening last week two gentle-men, wives and babies were out ridingon bicycles. The natural suppositionwould be be that as of old, the babieswould te riding with their mothers.Such was not the case, however.

Victor VonGoetz retired from theoffice of mayor last night after a year ofservice that has proved very satisfactoryto the people. Mr. VonGoetz began bisduties as mayor the determinationthat his would be aneconomical one. He was full aware

that the debt hanging over the citywhile not an extraordinary one, waslarger than should be, and he also real-

ized that the only way it could be wipedout was by a curtailment of the runningexpenses, w itn tnis in view street wornana other improvements were kept downto the lowest notch and as aresult the expenses of the city have bean,some $1,200 less than usual. Mr. Baker,our new mayor, is a conservative maaand we believe he will follow in the footsteps of Mr. VonGoetz in keeping down

the expenses.

For the good of the fire departmentit is hoped that the present little squab-ble resulting over the election of a chiefwill not be fostered and expanded. Fromthe evidence produced before the councilit would seem that the election at whichthe chief and assistant were elected wasregularly called, that the attendancewas as large as is usual at such meetings,aad that the charge of illegal voting isBot well sustained. The Tribune hasno, choice of chief, any good competentman is suitable for it, and we bcliovo tothe citizens at large. It is hoped thatthe matter wi 1 soon be settled to thesatisfaction of nil, and that the standardof excellency which has characterizedfhe department will be maintained.

COUNCIL PROCEEDINGS.Th&re .was a large audience present at

the council chamber last evening, andthe meeting held was a protracted one;

The presence of the auditors was duoprincipally to a desire to lea rn who theappointees of the new mayor would bo.

Mayor VonGoetz rapped the councilto order at 8:15 and after the minutes oftwo previous meetings had been readand approved, the finance committee reported that they.had audited the booksand vouchers of the city treasurer andhad found them correct.

James Belton, who had requested theprivilege of erecting an outside stairwavon a brick block he proposes to erect on

Fiffh and Spruce street was notified thatthe council had no power to act in thematter. The same decision was renderedin the matter of the F. & M. ditch com

panyj who had asked for a right-of-wa- y

along Second street.Butler Buchanan asked the city to re-

imburse him in the amount of 87.70 foroverpaid interest on a city warrant, butthe council thought Mr. B. should re-

cover the amount from the party towhom it was paid.

After several bills had been approvedor allowed, time was given the clerk towrite up the minutes of the meeting,after which the old council adjournedsine die. Previous to adjournment how-

ever, Mayor VonGoetz thanked themembers of the council for the supportthey had given him. During his ad-

ministration the running expenses of

the city had been cu t down over 81,000and he hoped that the present adminis-

tration would be able to make a like re-

duction. If it did the city debt couldeventually be paid without the aid offunding bonds.

Tho mayor then vacated tho chair andadministered the oath of office to Mayor-ele- ct

Baker who at onco entered 'uponhis duty as mayor. The oath of officewas administered to the clerk, who inturn administered it to the councilmen.

firmed.Iddings requested the postponement

of the appointment of city marshal untilthe next meeting, regular or special.The mayor kindly acquiesced to thedemand.

For night policeman the mayor presented the name of Henry Bretornitz,but the appointment lacked tho neces-

sary number of votes for confirmation.no name or jno. .Davis was then pre

sented and tbe appointee was confirmed.The mayor appointed tho members

of the several council committees, afterwhich the bonds of the mayor, treasurer,police judge, city clerk, and the' twotown herders were approved.

A petition from residents of the Thirdward asking that Ninth street be roundedup or graded, was referred to the propercommittee.

Lists of tho active members of theFirst and Third ward hose companieswere presented to tbo council and theywero ordered filed.

A communication was then read fromthe city fire department, stating that attho annual meeting of the fire depart-ment S. L. Bristol had been elected chiefand W. II C. Woodhurst assistant chief,and requesting that theso be confirmedby the council. This was followed by aremonstrance against tho confirmationof Bristol and Woodhurst on the groundthat they bad boon elected by votes castby certain parties who were not activemembers of the department. The op-

posing factions were represented to thenumber of eighteen or twenty, and ashort investigation of the matter was

held by the council. The matter was re-

ferred to a special committee for furtherinvestigation. The council then ad-

journed.

Inalmost every case 'she dances so badlythat there is no excuse for her from theartistic point of view, and if skirt danc-ing is not artistic it is valgar or ridicu-lous or both. In either case it is a fashion which adds nothing to the diguityof a gentlewoman or to her charm andis. as a rule, an exposure both of hadtaste and a bad figure.
