Claud Maxwell bad a bad runaway last Saturday, but fortunately escaped without getting hurt. He bad hitched np his father's horses to the mail wagon and started to drive to the postofflce. The horses were feeling pretty lively and when Claud pullod them up the neckyoke slipped up on the bole, letn ting the mall wagon run on them. This caused tbem to rnn away. They started to rnn at Chas. F. Zook's place, two blocks west of the livery stable, and came down the street on the dead run. They turned at the livery stable and run into Knapp's rubber-tired buggy that was in front of tho barn. Tnis stopped the horses, tnrowing one of them down with feot in the air, and tangled up in the bugay so it couldn't move. Claud and the mail wagon were not hurt, Tbo harness was some what broken up. One of the horses was bruised nnd scratched a little, but hot to amount to anything. But Knapp's buggy did not escape so woll, as three wheels were crushed and other damage sustained. It was a bad looking runaway anb terminated very fortunately that no one was hurt. Monday morning when tho horses were bitched up they started to run again but did not succeed in getting away.

Church, who has boon in tho inaano asylum forBomo timo, died Tuesday of this week. His body was brought to Auburn Wednesday and tho funoral services held from tho Luth eran church Thursday, Judge Church was an old and honored citizon of Ne maha county. Ho was one of the brainiest men wo ever had here. He served several terms as county judge. He was a leader in all he undertook. Several years ago he had a atroko of paralpsis, from whiob ho never fully recovered, although ho attended to his business for somo timo after, until ho had a second stroke. Since then be has gradually failed bodily and menn tally. Ho moved to Oklahoma previous to this. Finally his mental condition became io bad that ho was sont to the asylum at Lincoln, whero ho could have better treatment than it was possible to give him at home. He had not recognized anyone for soveral months. It Is a sad tnlng to see a man who was as useful and influx ential as was Judge Chnrch in the condition he was in. He leaves a wife, one son, Harry Church, living in California, and two daughters, Mrs. Bertha Winters of Idaho, and Mrs. Ida Good of Peru, to mourn his loss. Auburn had a bad flro early 8uuday morning. The Are broke out in the bowling alley back of the billiard par lor in the conter of tho block east of Thompson & Peery's, on the north side, and was drat discovered about one o'clock. Threo buildings were burned, all frame structures, two stories high. No one lived in tho up per story of the billiard parlor. Rob, erts' restaurant on the west was the next building to burn. Mr. Roberts lived upstairs and was unable to save any of his stock of goods, household furniture, or even bis wearing apparel. Mrs Roberts fainted, when she saw the fire and had to be carried out ef , the burning building. The next building was Brlssey'o meat market, the family living above. A few household goods only were saved. The next buildings on eaob side were brick and the fire was checked. The plate glass win dows on tbo opposite side of the Btreet were broken, as well as the windows in the upper stories. The building occupied by the billiard hall was owned by J. B Kublraan and was insured for $500. Mr. Hubbs had $1200 insur ance on his bowling alley and billiard tables. Mr. Roberts bad only $500 in- surance on stock of grocories, con fees tionery, restaurant fixtures, household goods, etc, Mr. Brissey owned the building occupied by him and carried $8,200 on building, stook, fixtures, household goods, etc. Jack Boatman, assessor for Aspin wall precinot, has the honor of being the first deputy to return bis completed assessment of the personal property of bis district to the county assessor. He finished the work of listing all the taxable property in an area o thirty square miles, Monday, and re ceived for his services the sum of $04. Last year $135 was the amount paid for assessing tbo precinot. County Assessor Maxwell says tha the cost of assessing the county this year will be materially reduced and he expects to save the taxpayers $700 on the work. He is doing all the olerlcal work himself and has fitted up an office in tho county commissioner's room. ic is inouguc inac an tne work o assessing the county will be completed oy tne urst or May. The assessment is being done in a very thorough and systematic manner all over the county Auburn Herald. Agonizing Burns are instantly relieved, and perfectly healed, by Bucklen'a Arnica Salve. O Rlvenbark, Jr., of Norfolk, Va., writes 'I burnt my knee dreadfully; that blistered all over. Bucklen's Arnica Salve stopped the pain, and healed without a ecar.'' Also heals all wounds and sores. 25c at W. W. Keollng, druggist.
