about two weeks, from dropsey.
lie was born in Bismark, Darm
stadt, Oermany, August 0, 182,
and resided in his native land un
til ho was 27 years of age, when
he decided to follow the beckon
ing hand of opportunity and seek
his fortune in the great republic
beyond the sea, coining to the
United States in the year 185 4.
and settled in the state of Illinois,
where he was married at l'ekin
to Miss Klizabelh Karhardt, who
came from the old hoine of Mr,
Stoehr in Germany, and their
hannv wedded life continued un
til 1900. when the wife was called
bv the angel of death to her final
reward, and since that time he
had lived with his children. Mr.
and Mrs. Stoehr ' moved to Ne
braska in 1883 and resided for
several years on a farm in Eight

In the passing of Christian

poor indeed and his place in th
life of the comnuinily will be one
hard lo (ill. as during the years
that he has resided in this count
he has always been alive lo every
movement for t he bet ferment of
the public good and his energies
have always been for Ihe uplift
ing of his fellow man.

This morning Judge Archer
bad two gentlemen brought before
him, who had been taken up by
the police last evening in a high
ly "lit" condition, and they were
compelled to languish in the
dungeon keep until this morning1.
One of the parties, John McKinney
of Omaha, confessed that perhaps
he had indulged too heavily m
the flowing bowl and the judge, in
view of this, assessed him a line
of $2 and costs, amounting to $5,
which he paid and departed, feel
ing he had received his money's
worth. The other victim of the
judicial wrath was one Ed Miller,
residing over in Iowa, who had
come over yesterday, and being
unabie to resist the superior
qualities of the Nebraska brand of
liquor, had accumulated a greater
load than ho could properly carry
around with him. Last evening1
John attempted to take passage
on No. 2 for his home, but was
denied the privilege of riding on
the train, as he was very much
intoxicated, and he proceeded to
remonstrate quite strongly with
the officials at the depot until he
was forced to go back up town,
where he was gathered in and this
morning1 the judge gave him a
present of $2 and costs, which lit
paid.
