Hot "Weather.It U oat of the order of things to havs what

may be termed a "heated term" in June, but that1 what wa have had this year. Last week was aKcorcher all over the country, being several degree hotter ia Illinois than the hottest day ofIaatymr. The tempera rare at this place was nota high as we have experienced on several occasions, but owing to peculiar conditions of the atmosphere, aad especially the wind, it seemed tobe very oppressive. The hot wave having passedthe temperature has resumed its normal conditionfor this season of the year.

A number of people had. a big ffrr wemight y a high time at Lamplngh's falri lastSanday. In the morning a wagon loaded withbeer aad decorated with flags arid evergreens,paraded the streets and was seen to go out oftown in the direction of the North River bridge.It waa soon followed by the desciples of Gara-bria- aa,

and from the number of carriages thatwent out during the day a TnathPTwatTcffm fig-

ured up the number at seventy they are evi-dently legion. The day was epent by ths picnic-er- a

ia a very happy manner in boating, in songand games, and ic Several ludicrous scenedltook place. One gentleman of huge proportionsriding in aboat with some women, was accidentally thrown in the water, creating a tidal wavethat imperilled the lives of proaienaders uponthe gravelly beach. Another gentleman accidentally fell froia a boat and became entousledin the sea weed, for a time arousing- - ftra ofdrowning. He was gallantly rescued and soonrecovered from the effect of his involuntary bath.The festivities continued nnrH quite a late hourin the evening.

Owing to the poor accoustic properties of thenTiera hrtro Tmr Tai m:vr trnrrTr? smrrtrnt- - tn 'manager Lloyd that in the future when there isto be a rendition of vocal and instrumental musiche allow the piano to be placed on the stage.Only those who have had experience realize howdifficult it is to sing when on a level with theaudience; when vocalists go to the trouble of pre-paring music they naturally desire to render it inthe best possible manner and if there is any possible assistance that might add to their benefitit should be granted. In behalf of those whokindly consent to famish music for public enter-tainments this suggestion is made with the hopethat it will be favorably acted upon.

There was a good attendance at the Presbyterian church Sunday morning to hear the children's services. Sunday, June 12th, was ob-

served among the Presbyterian churches through-out the country as children's day, but on accountof a delay in receiving music and paper, theschoolln this city was forced to postpone theirservices untn last Sunday. The singing, recita-tions, etc, by the little folks was very good andappreciated by the audience. Bev. Gring alsodelivered an address to the children.

The pyrotechnic display on Fourth of Julyevening wfll be the largest and finest ever seen inthis city, severalhundred dollars having been in-

CE. Osgood returned from Iowa Sandaywith a three-year-o-ld Cleveland Bay Stallion,which in the opinion of the hoss editor of thisjournal is one of. the finest ever imported intothis county. Mr. Osgood examined a number ofherds in Illinois and Iowa and finally selectedthis one. The animal at preseat weighs over1300. is dark in color, excellently formed, has remarkably fine action, and is free of any blemishwhatever.

Andrew Flynn died Tuesday of infiamarlonof the bowels at the Denver railroad hospital towhich institution he was taken several week'sago.

The people of OgaUala are to have a big celebration there on the Fourth a celebration by thepeople. Judge A. H. Church of this city hasbeen invited to deliver the oration and has ac-

cepted the invitation. Judge Church's" fame asn orator is extending. He wfll give the people

of Keith County an oration worthy of hearing andworthy of the day.

SmaU grain and vegetables are not growing asthey should, the trouble being not so much forthe waat of rain bat on account of high windsand hot weather. Corn has stood the trying or-

A fire broke out it the rear of Bird's barbershop Sunday afternoon about 4 o'clock aad thefew persons who happened to be in the vicinityhad quite a lively time forlsome ten minutes orsuch a matter.

In spite of. the efforts to stop them, partiesare stfll obstructing the irrigating ditch aad over-flowing the land above the difference being thatthey work in the night time now. These noctur-nal fishermen may be caught yet.

There has been an unusual amount of drunk-enness about the city for the past week- - Land-gr- af

it Waltemath's saloon is frequently a placecf boisterous merriment; and the near neighborsare beginning to consider it a general nuisance.

As a atriag wind-u- p of the day a public ballwfll be given at the opera house on theevening- - of the Fourth. The probabilitiesare it wfll be a warm night, but this wfll notdeter any from going. The temperature has noeffect on North Platte people.

Fred Fischer Killed st hieBrady Isittd.

On Sunday last Fred Fischerwae foasddead in the brush near his house onlkadyTsfond. He had evidently been murdered-Ther- e

is considerable mvstery surroaad- -ins: the case. The coroner's jury ia stillin. session, and onlv outside testimony cambe sutnered.

It appears that on 3Ionday,the 13th,Fischer went up to the house of oae Mo-ra- nt,

who Eves on the island some sevea,or eight miles up the river from Fischer's,.to getsome tools to put aomx a wen. mastayed at Xorant's over night, returning'home Tuesday mornins. benur accompanied part way by Louie Eeyant, aliasFrench Louie, "who lives two or threemiles east of ilorant's. He had made arrangements to commence drivina a "wel- l-pipe "Wednesday morning, and John:Johnson, who was to nelp nim in tnework, went to Fischers house, ana stayeduntil nearly noon, when Fischer not appeanne, ne concmaea cnat r iscner naagone to loo it alter ni3 nsn. lines, it iscnerwas a great fisher). Returning on Thursday Fischer was sun aosent, ana naaap-parent-ly

not been at the house sinceJohnson had left there the dav before. i.neighbor by the name of Abercombrie,who lives two miles below, called aboutthe same time, and some search was madeior x iscner. o trace couiu oe louna,and other neighbors were notified Thesearch was continued Friday and Saturday without suoaess. On Sunday JohnShuey and Gus Goerkey came over fromthe south side of the nver to use ifiscnersbranding chute to brand some cattle.Goerkey had at one time been employedabout the National cemetery, and it wasnot long before he detected the unmistak-able smell that em mates from a decayingcorpse. The body was soon found in thebrush some four or five rods from thecorral in an advanced stage of decompo-sition. Information was immediatelytelegraphed to this city, and Sheriff Haley,in th.e absence of Coroner Streitz, accom-panied by Attorney STesbitt, Drs. Donald-son and Longley, and E. B. Warner,started early .Honday morning for thescene of the tragedy.

An examination" of the remains led

the fact that the man hadbeen shot throngh the body, the ball en-tering a little to the right "of the centerjust below the heart, passing out by theside of and tearing away a portion of thebackbone. The back of the skull at thebase of the brain had been smashed withsome blunt instrument. The murder hadapparently taken place near the corral,and the body dragged by the feet throughthe brush to th"e place where it "wasfound, the shirt being pulled up aroundthe neck, and one boot nearly ofiL Thetrail could be easily traced through thebrush, but all traces of blood and evi-dences of a struggle had been carefullyremoved from objects near the corral, abunch of weeds in one place having beencut and carried away, probably to concealblood The dead man's pipe and hatwere missing, and could net be found

It is evident the murder had not beencommitted for money. Nothing aboutthe house was disturbed About fivedollars in money was found in his trunk.From these circumstances a motive ishard to find, although certain things havearoused suspicions, but nothing has yetdeveloped that will warrant arrest. Thecoroner's jury consists of Drs. Longley &Donaldson, "Wm. Plumner, E. B. Warner,Joshua Snyder and Abram Brooks. Sometestimony was taken on the spot, but thejury returned to this city, and was in ses-sion Tuesday afternoon, adjourning untilthe 30th ins The jury is determined toget all the evidence that will possiblythrow any light as to the probable perpe-trator of the crime. .

Frederick: Fischer was a German bybirth, about fifty years of age, and wasone ot the early settlers of this county,having been about Fort IePherson at anearly day, taking a claim on the islandwhere he was killed some seventeenyears ago. He was unmarried Thebody was buried under a large cotton-woo- d

tree said to be the largest tree onBrady Island near his house, whereFred had often expressed a wish to beburied He has no relatives in this vicin-ity. .

Learning that theXorth Platte Town Lot Company had therefusal of Block 8 in Hinman's additionat $1,000 for a certain length of time, theymade the proposition and secured an ac-ceptance that if the company didn't cometo time they would take the block at thesame price. The lot company of courseintended to take the block, but other ne-gotiations lagging, they negligently ne-glected to bind the bargain. "When "theylearned that the time had expired, theboys didn't let any grass grow under theirfeet until they had the biirgain clinched.It is a very fine property, and three newhouses are expected to" be built thereonin a short time.

Butter has become almost a drug notonly in this market but all over. In Denver, usually a high marked it is a primearticle that will bring thirteen cents, whileOmaha, St. Joe and other Missouri rivermarkets are still lower. In our market agood article has been bringing 25 cents oncontract with families, but the price hasnow fallen to about 20 cents. Goodprime butter will keep and always bring agood price, but unfortunately most of ourpeople are not fixed for mairfng choicebutter, and have no facilities for keepingit made. The consequence is theyare obliged to force their products in themarket when, there 3 the greatest supply,and the price falls way below remuner-ative returns. At present our merchantscannot ship, there being no demand andmost of our people being supplied by pri-vate parties, there is very little retail trade.During the last week there have been sev-eral instances of parties bringing butterlong distances and were obliged to take ithome again. This is unfortunate, but itis not the fault of our merchants, whowould willingly buy if they could possiblyget it oh! their hands.
