CAME HERE IN 1356; LIVED
IN GASS COUNTY EVER SINGE
From Friday's Dally.
Tl;is morning J. K. Vallery was at
the linrlington station to depart for
Memphis, where he goes to bring his
cattle from his pasture near that
place to his farm southwest of My
nard for feeding. While waiting for
his train, he said to the reporter:
"In 1S"G. with my parents, Mr. and
Mrs. Theobald Vallery, I came across
the river near where the Burling
ton bridge is now, and our family
became residents of Nebraska, in
which state I have continued to re-
i.ido ever since. We came from near
Portsmouth. Ohio. , Shortly after our
arrival here the Plattsmouth Town-
site company gave my father a lot
if he would build a house on it. This
offer my father accepted and built a
lo house, which he traded the next
spring for a yoke of oxen. He had
been called as a soldier' for the Mex
ican war just before this and was
given a land warrant. With this
he went to the country northwest of
Mynard and settled under what was
known as the Pre-Emption entry,
paying $1.25 for the land with the
warrant. This is the quarter section
now owned by George, W. Snyder,
and on which Oliver Osbom lives.
Here they built a log house which
served as our home while my father
lived, he dying in 18G4."
In'lSGS Mr. Vallery built a brick
house uear the site of the old log
house, which still stands. At that
time roads were laid out the short
est way, and the road passing in
front of the house angled off across
country. The house was built paral
lel with the road, and now stands
northwest and southeast, making it
look peculiar, since the lines on the
farm have been straightened out
and roads are laid out1 in given di
rections.

HAIG BLASTS
WAY FOR RAID
WITHGANNON
BRITISH ARTILLERY E0MBARDS
GERMAN LINES THROUGH
SQUALLS OF RAIN.
FIELD MARSHAL READY
TO STRIKE NEW BLOW
Big Guns Never Cease Eattering of
Enemy Positions Day
or Night.
Through squalls of rain and und. r
low hanging clouds. Field Mar.vhal
Haig is blazing the way with hi
artillery for another raid into the
German line in Flandt-rr.
Since the great advance of he
midweek the British iurantiy has
kept to the trenches and shell eras
ers, except where forays were call
ed for to re-align the new front or
counter attacks were necessary to
hold back weak Cerman attempts to
recapture lost terrain.
But the big guns never ceased
their activity, and, day in and d.iv
out. the masses of steel have been
blasting the German points which
are mapped out for capture when
the new drive is launched.
Where Fire Is Heaviest.
The particularly heavy bombard
ment is in the region running from
Langeniarck to Zonnebeke, and es
pecially to the east of the latter
town, where the wedge of the Ib'ir
ish has been pushed in almost with
in striking distance of the Ostend
Ulle road.
When the new 'offensive will be
sprung cannot be predicted. Several
days may elapse before TIaig has suf
ficiently pounded the Germans io
warrant sending his men across No
Man's Land or the process of de
molition already may have advanc
ed to the point where the first gray
streaks of dawn of Monday may see
its commencement.
The army of the German crown
prince in Champagne again has en
deavored to dent the French line,
but again has failed with consider
able losses in men killed or made
prisoners.
Quiet In Russia.
Comparative quiet prevails on the
northern portion of the front in
RuMMia and along this line- to Ru
mania. In Rumania, however, the
Russians, in an attack northwest of
the town of Zerewich. captured a
Teutonic position, made prisoners of
Tfii men and also took seven ma
chine guns. Under a heavy -'artillery
fire the Russians later were
compelled to evacuate the position.
Daily the Italians' and Austrians
are engaged in battles for supre
macy on the tlopes of Monte San
Gabriele. in the Gorizia sector. In
the latest fight the Italians captur
ed enemy positions on the northern
slopes and also took prisoners. On
several other sectors of this theater
the Austrians have delivered attacks,
but everywhere wt-re repulsed.

AMERICAN DESTROYERS
ARE TAKING A HEAVY
U-BOAT TOLL JUST NOW
Washington. Oct. 7. American
dost royers; operating in foreign wa
ters are netting a heavy U-boat toll.
In two statements, issued by tlie navy
department, today, it was shown that
the American vessels are meeting
with success in their operations
against submariner.. More state
ments ate forthcoming.
.Wither Hie date of the engage
ments nor the names of the vessels
involved are given in the description
of the destroyer U-boat bat lien madt
public.
In oin case a destroyer, after
reveral attempts destroyed a subma
rine with a depth bomb. The sec
ond engagement described from re
ports received at the navy depart
ment was that in wl.ii h the steam
er West wego, previously reporter
attacked, figured in the sinking of
at least one submarine out of si?
that made an atta?k on a merrhan
fleet.
The navy account of the Westwegc
battle follows:
"One merchant ship was sunl
and another badly damaged in ar
attack of enemy submarines on largf
convoy of merchantmen. The werr
not American vessels. The exact
number of submarines engaged coul
not be determined. But the genera'
belief was that there were six.
"The intimation of the attacl
which the Westwego received wa'
the torpedoing of a merchant mar
some distance away. The propellc
and rudder of this ship were blow
away and there was a large hole ir
the stern. She was afterward tow
ed into port.
"At almost the same time a tank
er was struck squarely -amidships b'
a torpedo. The ship stink rapidly
Up to this time no one had sen t
periscope. A destroyer which ha'"
been off the Westwego starboar'
beam turned back and dropped tw
depth bombs. Flying - debris anr"
oil on the surface of the water fol
lowed one of these explosions.
"This marked the end of the at
tack. Various reports from differ
cut ships as to the number of sub
marines sighted were received irn
mediately after the attack. Ther
didn't agree, but as stated, the gen
eral belief after comparing the diff
erent reports was that there werr
six U-boats in the attack.
"Less than a half hours later i
periscope appeared within a fev
yards of the side of the Westwcg'
and drifted astern, where It quickl
disappeared in the wake of the ship
Destroyers concenterd at the spof
and the periscope presently reap
peared more than a half a mile away
It was visible for a few moment'
only. The destroyers continued th"
search, bat nothing more of thr
U-boat was seen. If she attempted
to torepdo any of the ships in the
convoy there was no fign.
"The remainder of the vovagr
was uneventful."
WILL EUILD PROTEC
TIVE EMBANKMENT
Front Friday's Uaily.
Robert Malone of the Malone Con
struction Company of Lincoln, va?
in the city yesterday conferring with
the Burlington road, regarding a
piece of work which the construc
tion company will soon begin for the
Burlington at Oreapolis. Heretofore
the company have been damaged
greatly at every spring freshet, and
especially when the ice goes out of
the Platte river in the spring, by
overflows, which, with the huge ice
cakes and gorges, have torn up the
railway tracks and grades, causing
interuption of traffic, and necessitat
ing the almost rebuilding of a por
tion of the track so damaged. The
intention is to build an embankment
extending from the bank of the river
above the Missouri Pacific bridge,
to a point above the Elevator own
ed by the Duff Grain Company. It is
the intention of the railway to
build this embankment about nine
feet in height. and of sufficient
strength to keep the drift ice and
gorges from tearing it away and al
so the trackage of the 4Y' and other
lines in the same vicinity. If this
can be done it will confine the
danger zone to the river proper, and
eliminate much of the risk and
danger of damage which now exists.
HAVE VISITED FRIENDS HERE.

Mr. and Mrs. George Kruse. of
Nelson, who have been visiting in
the city with relatives and friends,
being the guests at the home of Mrs.

time then fro to their home at Nel

with the Rock Inland 'railway.
