The Alliance area railroad community reports numerous moves and visits by engineers conductors and families with trips to Lincoln Deadwood and Denver. A severe storm washed out the line between Chilean and Minnekahta delaying trains about two hours and cutting telegraph lines.
Mrs Holliday and Miss McDaniels from Denver attended a 500 party hosted by Mrs A E Nelson Saturday. Twenty ladies present. Holliday received a hand painted plate and McDaniels a china powder box. Mrs A N Hosking won the games prize, a hand painted plate. A five course lunch followed.
The Herald salutes Alliance for its strong educational facilities led by Prof. W. R. Pate and Principal E. L. Meyer. The 1911 census rose to 1110, Emerson adds a new teacher moving fourth grade to Central, and Central gains two second-grade teachers under Misses Jones and Larson. The opening day is Sept 4 with plans to accommodate record enrollment and renovations for heating and lighting.
The dividing line runs from the railroad alley between Box Butte and Laramie north to 6th street then west to the alley between Cheyenne and Big Horn and north to the city limits. West residents go to Emerson, east to Central, with exceptions for high school and eighth grade at the high school, seventh and fourth grade at Central, and city residents attending nearest school.
A large audience attended The Bachelors Reverie at the Phelan last night. Performers delivered fine singing and strong acting with notable amateurs shining. The Herald endorses the entertainment while offering mild criticism and notes a church's involvement in a few features.
