Mrs. Rebecca Dedwell of Dalcow, Mo., came In Tuesday to spend a few weeks with relatives and friends in thiB vicinity.

McMaken this morn ing received word from Atchison, Kas., that his brother Andrew, well known here, was In a very critical condition and that physicians had abandoned hope for him. Mr, Mc Maken had been ill with heart trou ble whlvh developed into pneumonia several days ago and last night he was rapidly sinking. Owing to his age which Is 78 years, he is unable to rally from the effects of the at tack and the end is momentarily e pected. The many friends of Colonel McMaken and his family will unlt in the most sincere grief over the report and it is to be hoped that It is exaggerated and he may even yet take a turn for the better. Colonel McMaken will probably make a trip down to see his brother this evening, although he had not fully determined upon that this morning.' Attorney William Deles Dernier Talks of Trip. William Deles Dernier, the prom inent Elmwood attorney, came to the city today as told in another place and proceeded to come storm ing Into the Journal office full of war and desolation. He was some worked up over a little personal that appeared in the Journal about two week3 ago, shortly after his return from Ness and Brown counties, Kan sas. When he saw ye reporter he assured him that he didn't .like the wind which blew In Kansas and the item was innocently printed Just as l given. The fact is and he so wants the public to understand, he struck Kansas on one of the days when the wind was blowing there Just as it did here on the same day and he had a disagreeable experience just as our home folks did. He says that so far as not liking the soil and the prospects of the sunflower state is concerned he certainly does like both. He is especially of the idea that Ness and Brown counties are mighty good locations and that there Is every rea son to believe a great deal of money can be made by Judicious Investments in these counties. He describes the land as a rich, rolling prairie, fertile as any land lying out of doors. At one place he asked a man acquainted with the country the distance to a range of hills In the distance and was told thirty-five miles which sub sequent Investigation confirmed. Ev ery foot of this land from where he stood to where the hills loomed aloft was carpeted with a dark, rich green field of wheat. The yield which this land promises to make this season is something which is extraordinary. Mr. DelcsDernier noted a handsome feature of the landscape while there consisting of stone fence posts. There is a rocky formation in some of the valleys of that land which can be cut into fence posts and to which wire is easily attached, making, an almost Imperishable as well as very handsome fence. Mr. DelesDernler contemplates, returning to Kansas in a few weeks when he expects to buy some of this' land. j He found after getting back ,here that' the same' wind which made ' things uncomfortable' there had been blowing here and it was! Just as bad ana that 'was the only kick he had. lje expects to also move on west to near Pueblo, Col., while in the country and look Into some land projects there. He states that he is glad to be able to confirm the good words for Ness and Browu counties which Messrs. Patterson, Moore and Wiles said through . the Journal Beveral days since and he is glad to add his enthusiasm to their regarding it. Mr. Deles Der iers's trip to that region a few weeks ago was made in company with Judge Travis who is also interested In some land there and who is this year satisfied that his land will again yield heavy returns on the invest ment as it has a fine wheat crop in process of raising. Western Kansas is said this year to be In far better shape than the eastern part of the state and there is more money to be made there than in what has always been looked on as the best part of the state. Ship Much Stock. Cattle business from the flourish ing city of Murray is on the boom. Yesterday there were eight cars of animals loaded ' at that point for South Omaha. ' Charles Chrlswisser loaded three cars,' Z. W. Shrader loaded two cars,' Mr. philpot loaded two cars and Jake' Hild had one car for the market.' The gentlemen hope for good prices today 'as they all have, excellent . animals. . Messrs. Chrlswisser and Shrader came up to this city last evening and spent the night here, Journeying oil to Omaha this morning for the opening of the market.
