Work on the road north of the
river which was ordered some time
ago by the commissioners, has not
yet been commenced. Tliis is due
to the refusal of a certain party on
the north side to sell the county
sufficient land from which to obtain
the dirt necessary to put the road
in proper repair. It is thought,
however, that the party will recon
sider his refusal.

ROYAL Baking
Powder improves
the flavor and
adds to the healthful
ness of all risen flour
foods. It renders the
biscuit, bread and cake
more digestible and
nutritious.
Royal Baking Pow
der makes hot breads
wholesome. Food
raised with Royal will
not distress persons of
delicate or enfeebled
digestion, though eaten
warm and fresh.
Imitation baking powders almost invariably con
tain alum. Alum makes the food unwholesome.

Corner Stone Laid.
In the presence of several hundred
people, the corner stone of the high
school building was laid at fixe
o'clock yesterday afternoon with
Masonic ceremonies, Grand Master
Critcs officiating.
About fifty Masons from Gothen
burg, Cozad, Lexington and otlur
points attended the ceremonies.
The members of the order asscu
bled at the hall at five o'clock and
headed by the band marched to the
site. Grand Master Critcs, witu
others, mounted the platform and
gave a brief explanatory address,
which was followed by an invoco
tion by the chaplain of the lodge.
There was then placed in the cavity
of the stone a roster of the graduat
ing classes and the teachers of th;
schools, copies of the local and the
Omaha daily newspapers, photo
graphs of the main buildings of th;
city, financial statements of the
banks and other matter of a local
nature. The stone was then low
ered in position, and its security
certified to by the several officers
of the lodge as provided by the
ritual. Corn, wine and oil was
then poured upon the stone as symbolic-it
of plenty, health and peace.
This ceremony was interspersed
with ritualistic reading by the
grand master, and at its conclusion
"America" was rendered by the
audience. The orator of the even,
ing, J. G. Heeler, was then Intro
duced and made a fifteen minute
address which was replete with
good thoughts and sound advice.
A selection by the band ended the
ceremony.
In the evening a reception to
Grand Master Critcs was held at
the residence of W. II. McDonald
which was attended by the visiting
Masons and the local members and
their families. Icecream and cake
