WORK ON THE IBERVILLE
SCHOOL HOUSE COMPLETED
1
The work on the Mercerville
chool has been completed, ami
the building placet! in proper
hape for the opening of school
in epteinuer. During the last
few years tins building has been
allowed to run down considerably
untiPil became unsafe for tin
pupils to attend and for some
time it was contemplated to have
Ihe building abandoned and sold
lo the city for a house for the
sexton of the cemetery, but as
there are quite a number of fam
ilies living in that locality it was
decided lo lix it up. A new
foundation was placed under the
Duilding and the lloor replaced, as
well as' liunimerous small repairs.
and now the building is in good
shape. The carpenter work on
I In- building was done by J .K.
Mason amj C. A. Welsh, who are
experts in their line, and a good
job was turned over to the city as
the result of their labors.
BROUGHT UP AND MADE TR
PAY FOR AN OLD OFFENCE
lhis morning Robert Hlack was
brought into the presence of
Judge Archer, charged with binir
in a state of intoxication on last
Saturday. The defendant had
promised to appear Monday for
trial, but failed to show up, and
the police instituted a search, but
without success until yesterday,
when he was discovered bv some
parties peacefully sleeping be(
nealh the shade of a large r tree
on Isoulh ririh street. It was
thought by the parlies finding him
lhat he was dead, but upon in
vestigation he vas found very
much alive and was foree"d to ap
pear in the court to face his
charge. The judge, after taking
in the testimony, decided that a
line of $2 and costs, amounting to
5-, would about lit bis rase, and
it was "hung" orv him by the
court and he was allowed his
iberty for a short time to pro
cure 'the amount. -

CROP CONDITIONS
IN THE WESTERN
PART OF THE STATE
It. L. I'ropsL has just returned
from an extensive trip through
the western part of the stale
aloiij; the Hurliiigton south of tht
IMaLte river, and linns ilie crop
conditions there very bad as far
as corn is concerned. From her
west to Hed Cloud, where he isif-
ed. he found thai the corn ba
gotten up from two to four feet
but had been blasted by the hot
winds and dry weather until then
was nothing left of it. These con
ditions also prevailed near llasl
ings and lloblredge, wluro h
was lor a short lime, and a mug
the railroads when" 1 here were no
tire guards the railroad company
hail men stationed to prevent lb
liav hclds and pastures imni
catching lire, so dry was the gen
eral condition of things. ,Mr.
1'ropst reports that most of-th
threshing in lhat. locality had
been finished, with the wheal run
ning vfroni 25 to i bushels pet
acre and ot excellent uuaiiiy,
which wilrTlid largely in olTselting
the loss caused by Ihe shortagi
in corn Ibis year. From general
reports all over- Ihe stale am
from personal observation of
parlies who hae isiled the dif
ferent sections, (lass county
seems to be among the. best coun
ties 'in the stale a s far as condi
tion of crops: their corn seems lo
lie less badly burned I ban in
other sections, while, the wheal
yield is enormous.

Will Maupin coulribules bis re
port of another ".Memory Fx-
..cursiou" wherein he takes you on
a visit wilh him to the lillle old

anecdotes, personal and other
wise, and you will be interested in
the department of "Snap Shots al
Men in the Public I've." They
are all N'ebraskans that you will
like to read about.
Midwest's evejy issue is a lib
eral education in the greatness of
Nebraska, and every Nebraskau
interested in his stale's develop
ment ought to be a regular sub
scriber. The magazine deserves
a place in every Nebraska' home.

I hey were all I here and not one
had been disturbed. There are

done withotil Ihe owner of the
