Friday mon i g near the Wheeler
block there was an interesting ex
hibition. It was a street show con
sisting of two dagoes, two bears and
Judge Sullivan. As usual there was
a crowd of boys around to see the bears
dagoes and Judge Sullivan wrestle
climb trees and telegraph poles. The
price to see the big bear climb the tret
was fifty cents. One dago passed the
hat and soon big bruin was doing fifty
rents worth of climbing. The the
little bear seemed anxious to climb
to the top of a telegraph pole for twenty-five
cents, but the crowd was busted.
It was then that the Sullivan part of
the combination came to the rescue.
Ho soon passed the hat band the two

the crowd, then at the two sons of

twenty-five ochts was safe. The dago
pounded the pole and the judge
anathematized in the dago dialect,
but the bear would climb no higher.
The money was safe inj the. treasury;

SCARLET FEVER TAKES
LITTLE I KLU GORDLR.
Thirteen Year Old Son ol Mr.
and Mrs. August Gorder
bled Saturday.
r . . - . ...
After a short fiirht with the dreaded
disease, scarlet fever, liitle Fred
Gorder, departed this life Saturday
evening at a little after nine o'clock.
The news of the death of the bright
little lad fell like a thuhdLolt in
many a Cass homo and payers of
sympathy and condolence were un
consciously set forth from hundreds
of hearts to the bereaved parents
who considered the child as an in
valuable treasure. The little fellow
wa;s not overly strong and posse-ssed a
very nervous teiapcrwment, which made
it -difficult for him to stand off the
ravages of the diseauso which first be
gun io show its effects ou him a week
ago Sunday. Hy Monday noon the
fever had taken a firm hold of the
little; fellow and he soon sank into
uncoiisuiousiu'ss; When the beiy'ssur-
roundings began to appear elim to him
the parents and attending physicians
elespaired ef his surviving, but to
ward the last eif the week he rallieel
somewhat, and seemed to be able; to
recognize his family again. How
ever, the lnmprovenii'iit em Jus con
dition lasted but a short time. On
Satynlay he stiff reeel a rclapsc.sink-
ing rapidly until his ehath at nine
nine o'clock.
The smart lad ,who was so un
timely snatche-d from a promising
life, would have been thirteen years
eif ne at his next birthday, Sep
tember 14. He was matured far
beyond his years. He knew more
about history and electricity, with
his few years eif study than many
people learn in their entire lifetime
He was known by his fellow class
mate's at schoolas a "boeikworm'
Nothing wetuld suit him better than
a book eif American history eir a veil
uine of Felison's inventions. Since
his father secured the agency for two
different aiuoiiiobiles.Frvel spent much
of his time penning over the man
ufacturers' catalogue until he knew
the use eif nearly every part of the
machine. This learning he fallowed
up wiih the practical work ef man
ipulating the cars. Starting with
the little "ISrush" which was
first tine his father hougl.t this
spring, Fred goein 1 ad crfect
control of it. A few months later
when the big, high wheeled car ar
riveel, the lael was ready to tacJilc
and it in a week's time, he was run
ning it with the case that he piloted
the smaller one.
Towarel the later part of his school
year, the strain of severe study
and constant use ef his eyes began to
tell em his health, and at the physi
cian's reeiie'st, he put aside his boe'ks
and rested his eyes and nerves as
as much as possible, but his hcilth
eliil not materially improve and his
physical comlition was not in a suf
ficiently ruggeel state to ward off
the fever which was hanging over
him. Seioit after the fever had com-
nieiieeel to ucveleipe in his system
it was feared he was fighting a
hopeless battle. The blow of the
de aui w as a nmsi seve re one to the
youth's parents who worshiped him
with even metre than the mother and
father love.
The contagion of the disease,
which snuffeel out the young life
prevented the attendance eif the;
large circle eif friends of the deceased
and his family from being present
at iho last rites eif the beiloveel little
fellow. The service's were held Sun
day afternoon from the Gtireler
home, entrement being made at
Oak Ili'l cenmctery.

THE CORN WEATIIERi 54
ARRIVED ATLAST.
Good Effects of Old Sol's Roast
Being Lost by LackotJ
Moisture In Fields.
The ceirn weather has
come at
iiisu um noi is geiiiug ousy mcse
days duys and is sending forth a
bunch eif fiery rays that would make
the ceirn stulks grow like Jack's pro
verbitl bean stalk were it not for
the decided lack eif moisture
in the soil. With a few sheiwers
right neiw., the corn would shoeit
up so eniiekly it would elcvehipe roust
ing ears before it Intel time to tussel.
The hot weather is what the farmers
have been praying feir,,but they had
not been loeiking for such a drought.
Had they thought such elry weather
would come withjhe lieat, they would
have inclueli'd a pleajeir a little mois
ture in their prayers for it is the lack
eif rain which they are now suffering
freim.
The perssimist who croaked
"cold weather, no corn" has e hange el
his tune to "no rain, no corn", he is
bound to find something that
will fill the bill. It is true, the
outlook for a heavy yield this year
is not the best it has bee n in the past
elecadi1, but the creips will by nei means
be a total loss. In this section of
the state, it is said the rainfall is ubout
six ami a nun liicnes ncmmi the nor
mal at this time of the year. The
heavy ruins that Nebraska has tx
periene'eel the last few springs were
entirely lacking thisspring, ami hael
it not been for the unusually .large
fall eif snow during the winter, the
ground wcmld have been in much worse
contlition during the early spring.
On account eif the; eeild weather
through early planting time, much of
the seeel placeel in the ground elid neit
show any signs eif life and it was neee-s-sary
to plant even twice in some pla
ces. The seeel which was replanted
had but a very meagre start when the
hot wave tiruek and the result is that
it is being stunted and the ground
is becoming parched and craeked
I lie last planting of corn seems to
be affected the most seriously eif any
eif the crops in the fields. Wheat is
doing fairly well, considering the poor
start it obtained early in the spring
and the backward season it has had to
endure, 'i he drought is extending
over quite- a wide area through the
the middle west, into North and South
Dakota and into Colorado.
Vfc can stand the thermometer
hetvering arounel (15 in the shaele, if
we only ge t a little rain, so we may fe el
the warmth u doimr someone some
good.
