church, at the earnest request of "Uncle Billy" Robinson, he was relieved of his official in connection with the church. He united with the church when 16 years old, arid with the exception of one year, has been upon its official board for 62 years. His long and faithful service it was felt entitled him to be placed upon the, retired list, and yet hiB 'successor will come far short of filling his 'place, H. M.

M. 'Evans, Ed Brown, Frank Bridges, Walter Larison, Henry Baird, Charlie Holmes. They were good ones in their time, and while out of practice, it is safe to guess that they will make it, interesting for our modern players.

The huge tent of the Uncle Tom's Cabin Co. was crowded to the limit of its seating capacity Monday night, people coming from all parts of the county, That the rendition of the grand old drama was a disappointment to a majority of the vast audience was very evident, It was not what people had been led to expect from the oompa- ny's pretentious. The stage was small, its settings inferior, the acting- was coarse, very coarse, and the possi- ble exception of Little Eva and St.Clalr, the whole affair, was a barefaced fake, THE LEADER begs its readers' pardon for advertising such a swindle and'Will try not to be imposed upon by another i Buoh concern, Byron and Fred Welpton, who, with their brother Guy, went to Norton county, Kansas, in, the spring to farm their father'B land, returned Friday, having "laid by" their corn, The three in and cultivated in "good and workmanlike manner" 140 acres of ft'nd leffc it in a promising condition, Tbe prospects are that 6 90 ftwpfe prop, The Prop grain Wwr ppt very good, but the ppye, did, 'not exempt to raise In additipn jp their farm work they did bwiekeepfng 1 acquired esperienpe in ijfoty Tfa ey, bad fa wa'y, fcpjne, and fbeir OWfiffS. wntr nftfi tt employ 6f Mrg Dysrvft tot ft ygftf pfist, departed yes'tefdfty 'for bis in Otfdy, fJeb.

Rev O. Brewer attended a "mid summer meeting of the-congregation of Fifth Avenue E. church, Council Bluffs, Friday evening, Mr. Brewer was a former pastor of, this church, and the occasion of the jubilee was the lifting of the last dollar of an indebtedness which has burdened the church if or some years.

A hearty invitation is extended to everyone to attend this service and hear some echoes from the great Milwaukee contention, Messrs. Barnes and Beattie and Drs. Parsons and Laird returned evening from their fishing trip to the lake at Langdon, Mo. They brought home 35 or 40 very nice fish, but heavy rains just prior to their visit had overflowed the banks of the lake and made the water muddy so that. fishing was not as good as usual.

The, lake at this place is simply the old bed of, the Nish. na river, the railroad company having made a cut-off some years ago' that changed the current of the stream. The lake is 61 miles long and averages about 800 feet in water is very deep and usually clear, being fed by springs. It contains abundance of bass, croppies, sun and catfish.

Thixten, who'was arrested last week for selling goods at auction without a license, was held before Mayor DuShane' Monday, E. Whitfield appearing for the defendant and E. Cook for the town. While the defendant has been running his auction since the 7th the evidence introduced was confined to the sales of three days. The ordinance under which he was tried provides that any person who engages in the auction business in the town must procure of the mayor a permit for which he must pay not less than three nor more than five dollars per day.

The penalty provided for violation of the ordinance is a fine in double the amount required to obtain a permit, with costs attached, As it was proven that Thixten had conducted an 'auction for at least three days, the order of his honor was that he pay a fine of $80.00 and 'costs, Thereupon the defendant appealed to the district court, It begins to look now as though the recent reduction made by the' railroad companies on to Chicago, would result in but little benefit to the farmers after all, Tbe reduction amount, ed to five cents per hundred weight or about three cents JbuBbeJ, and ttoi 8 enabled buyers Jo offer 17 to 18 cepjB for coirn, The response was BO prompt and fchjtf.QHT|)Ti?eB0ay, the receipts thousand oars, with pf aw to 1500 ears pef Prior tp receipts bad averaged 8QQ oare enorjnouj, In receipts bas again forceC tbf 4pwn-Mfl JOPaV buyers anp.pJ Tbere -are jjjtjjB Wft, fe waving Wlofc HbtfWfc Ms felldeaffe; Contractor Bnmtnohd baft Ed fiofl- jffew well utfdef way, Al ByerB ah'd Beft drilBab bought Ing tandem wheel Of Cleaver fefos.

Plumb, has led to this conclusion, The next best thing to owning a silver mine, with' a free coinage attachment, would doubtless be the proprietorship of an Uncle Tom's Cabin show. One think there was a dearth of silver from it rained into Uncle Tom's ticket wagon here Monday.

When John Me'eks, returned borne Monday morning from a visit at Tabor, he discovered that his poultry house bad been invaded and relieved of five dozens of his best chickens. At this writing no clue to the thieves has been discovered. It seems a great pity that'such wholesale pilfering in our midst cannot be stopped. Mr. 'J.

W. Baker.is lying very sick at his home, northwest of town, from what it is feared is developing into blood poison, About a 'month since while chopping he cut one of his but the wound did not show dangerous syrup- tons until about a' week ago when he was compelled to take to his bed, On Tuesday his step-children, W. Hodgin, of Onawa, and- Mrs. C. B.
