count. Kicked by a Horse
Last Thursday evening while Bob
bie McDonald was about his work at
the home of J. J. Donelan, he passed
close to a horse, and just when Bob
bie was behind the critter it kicked,
with the result that one foot hit
Bobbie in his side and back near the
small of the back, knocking him a
distance of about twelve feet and ren
dering the lad unconscious for some
little time. The father was called
by phone and immediately responded,
hurrying to the scene of the injury,
where he found the lad recovering,
but still suffering much pain. A
large place had arisen where the hoof
. of the horse Lad struck and v as very
i painful. Mr. McDonald imiacJiatFly
brought Bobby home and the pLy&i-
cian was called and after an exami
nation it was thought that no bones
were fractured. It is hoped that the
lad will be all right again in a short
time.
The Old Boys Sure Can Play
The question "Could they come
back?' was raised, when the young
lads challenged the "old boys" to a
game of ball at Elmwood last week,
and has now been answered to the
satisfaction of at least half of the
parties concerned.
The young lads who have been
in the lineup of the games of late and
were feeling fit as a fiddle thought
the older heads could not put it
across. But with Herman Kuehn as
catcher and E. W. Thimgan as the
twirler, supported by Elmer Miller at
first base, Charles Long at second,
Sandy at short, Dick Reickman third,
John Amgwert, left field. Marion
Schewe. center.. Floyd Hite, right
and Ralph Keckler the extra, should
one of the boys get laid out, the game
started with much confidence on the
part of the youngsters.
The game was a rattling good one
with the young lads thinking they
would surely wallop the Murdock
Greybeards to a frazzle, but as the
game grew older they did not get a
run while the old boys ran up six
to their credit and showed their
;-cuthful opponents that there was
more in a game than just the matter
of talk. The game is not always to
the swift, nor the battle to the strong
but to the ones who play with sci
ence, a thing which the old boys had
not forgotten. Herman Kuehn show
ed the spectators that he surely know
how to stop a ball and as to pitching,
Ed Thimgan let only one hit pass
during the game, though these two
had not played for years. Come
again, young fellers, and get some
pointers on the good old American
game.
Departs for the West
Henry A. Guthmann and the fam
ily were visiting in Plattsmouth on
last Sunday and on their return were
accompanied by Charles Guthmann
and two sons, John and Charles, of
Boise. Idaho, who have been visiting
here for some time past. After spend
ing the night here, Charles Guth
mann and the two sons departed for
their home at Boise, while Mrs. Chas.
Guthmann and daughter. Margaret,
departed for the east, where they
will visit with her folks at Spring
field. Mass., for some time, after
which she will also return to her
home in the west at Boise.
Married in the East
Word has been received here of
the wedding of a former Murdock
boy. Mr. Albert Reiekmann. who was
wedded to Miss Margaret Blum, of
Elgin, Illinois. Mr. Reiekmann has
completed his course at Naperville
schools and was working at Missouri
Valley, Iowa. They were united in
marriage on Aurrust 4th and will
make their home in Elgin for the
present.

Murdock Has New Industry
( Contributed
One of the young rustlers of near
Murdock, Carl Schlaphoff by name,
has just organized a firm and will
soon be able to supply the wants of
the public with a very essential pro
duct. He is now a raiser of thor
oughbred German kids and has a
good stock to start with. Herman
Schweppe has consented to furnish
the necessary pasture as it will be re
membered by many that Schweppe
already has a farm equipped for goat
raising. These goats are all good
milkers, so if you want one you had
better talk fast or it may be too late
as they are in demand.
Spend Day at KFNF
One nice day last week. William
and Henry Vogt and Carl Schlaphoff
loaded the families in their cars and
beat it to our neighboring city of
Shenandoah. Iowa, to spend the day.

brilliant address on "uu I'un farm

of the neighborhood counties there
to witness the drilling.
KICKED BY A HORSE
From Friday's Daily
Yesterday afternoon Bobbie Mc
Donald, 11-year-old son of Mr. and
Mrs. Oscar McDonald of Murdock, re
ceived a very severe kick in the back
from a horse while he was working
at the farm of J. J. Donlan, on the
old Stander place, half way between
Murdock and Louisville. The young
lad was passing back of the horse
when the animal pplanted a vicious
kick that struck Bobbie near the
small of the back arid hurled him a
distance of several feet and at first
the Donlan family feared that he
had been dangerously hurt and be
was brought on into Murdock to re
ceive medical aid. An examination
failed to reveal any serious injuries
or broken hones and the boy was rest
ing comfortably last night altho the
injured place was badly bruised and
puffed up.
The young man is a grandson of
Mr. and Mrs. Joseph Kelly of this
city.
Coolidge Frowns
on Rum Poisoning
Sends Protest to Secretary Winston
Against Virulent Denatur
ing of Alcohol.
White Pine Camp, N. Y.f Aug. 14.
President Coolidge has by infer
ence indicated to the Treasury de
partment that he is not in accord
with the practice of putting virulent
poison in industrial alcohol, it was
here Friday.
Without comment, a huge batch
of clippings telling of deaths from
poisoned alcohol, and letters of pro
test against the practice, were for
warded to the Treasury department
Under the signature of the president.
White House attaches agreed this
gesture was to be construed as a
direct slap at the order of Assist
ant Secretary of the Treasury Win
ston to make the foreign substances
incorporated into industrial alcohol
of such vicious nature that redis
tillation even would fail to remove
its deadliness.
Alarmed "by the great number of
deaths rectntly and aroused by ad
verse newspaper comment, many
prominent people have written to
the president protesting against poi
soned alcohol. All of these letters
were sent to Winston along with the
clippings collected at Mr. Coolidge's
order.
CHICAGO TO NAME PARK
IN HONOR OF LA FOLLETTE
Chicago, Au. 11. Dr. John Dill
Robertson, president of the board of
West Park commissioners, said today
that a Chicago park would be named
in honor of the late Senator Robert
M. La Follette. He said that altho the
petition for a park must be formally
passed upon by the board, he felt
justified in making the announcement
,because he knew the other members
were in sympathy. A twenty acre
tract on the northwest Bide recently
purchased by the board, now know as
Lloyd park will be used.
COOLIDGE TO GERMANY
Washington, Aug. 11. President
Coolidge in a message of congratula
tions to President von Hindenberg, of
Germany-on the seventh anniversary
of the tyirth of the German republic
transmitted today, said:
"On this anniversary of the birth
of the republic of Germany I extend
to your excellency on behalf of the
government of the United States and
in my own name cordial congratula
tions and earnest' wishes Tor the con
tinued prosperity of Germany."

Illinois Primary
Law Held Illegal; j
Chaos is Forecast j
Decision Will Overturn State's Politi-'
cal Machinery if Upheld by Su
preme Court on Appeal.
Chicago, Aug. 12. Holding thatj
the Illinois direct primary law of
1910 invalid and unconstitutional by!
the three judges of the Fifteenth cir
cuit district at Dixon Wednesday,'
paves the way for a final adjudication 1
in the state supreme court.
The case will be laid before the
high tribunal at the October term.)
An immediate decision, if sustaining j
the lower courts, would throw the ,
political and election machinery ofj
the state into a state of chaos from
which orderly extrication would bej
well nigh impossible before, the Ne
vember election.
Because of the confusion that
would result, it is not likely that
the high court will undertake to ren
der final judgment before the De
cember term, if it should be adverse,
so that the nominations made in the
April primary will not be disturbed.
Political Chiefs Nervous.
When the news first reached i
political chiefs in Chicago Wednes-j
day there was great confusion and
misgivings. It soon was established,
however, that the decision by the
Fifteenth district jurists affects im
mediately only a local situation and
that the real danger is yet to be
faced in the high tribunal.
While the Lee county suit hur.g on
a local dispute, the merits of the
entire direct primary act of 1910, em-
bracing likewise the many amend-;
ments subsequently enacted, were in
volved. So important was the litigation
from the standpoint of public policy
that Judge William L. Emerson of
Oregon called to his assistance the
other two judges of this district ,
Harry L. Herr of Galena and Harry
Edwards of Dixon. j
Decision Unanimous.
The case was argued before the
three judges sittig en blanc last
spring. The decision Wednesday was
unanimous. '
Immediately after Judge Emerson
announced the ruling. Slate's Attor-;
ney Mark E. Keller prayed an appeal j
to the supreme 'court, which was
gran'ed
William J. McAlpiue .sponsored the
ttaek on the entire law. holdinsr that
throughout its whole composition the
constitutional provision for "free and
equal elections" was repeatedly vio
lated.
The immediate effect of the de
cision is to stop the officials of Lee
county from paying certain expenses
incurred by public officials in the pri
mary election in that county last
April.

BAYu AMERICANS DEAF
TO DISCORD NOTES
Chicago, Aug. 12. The 200th an
niversary of the piano finds Amer
icans with no truly musical ear, A.
er, declared Wednesday before the
convention of the National Associa
tion of Piano Tuners. The average
piano in the American home hiis
from 10 to 20 "off notes." he said,
and "not one American in 1.000 can
tell when a piano is out of tune."
There are 13,000.000 out-of-tune
pianos causing the ether above the
United States to shimmy in all sorts
of false vibrations of the out-of-tune
jangle of pianos in the American
homes," he declared.
"The celestial orchestra must
have to susupend operations when
ever the world rolls past, yowling
and filling the air -with false notes.
America will never really know
what good music is until the piano
tuner is honored and regarded as
indispensable to musical life."
The Nebraska Gas & Electric com
pany has sold its electric properties
at Petersburg and Raeville to the
tTri-State Utilities company. The
sale was made because of the mutual
advantages to the two companies in
the way of operation and availability
to service over transmission lines.

for Honasi Valus
Build a product that the world needs,
better than the world expects, and mount

stantly predicting a saturated market.
During the first :ix months of this year,
fcr instance, Dodge Ercthcrs sold 207,115
motor cars and trucks. This represents a
gain of 49.3 per cent over the first six
months of 1925 and continues Dodge
Erothers in the enviable position of THIRD
IN THE INDUSTRY.
For the three weeks ending July 17th,
23,862 motor cars and trucks were de
livered to customers an increase of G2.4
per cent over the E?.u.e period Ipst year,
and impressive evidence that Dodge Broth
ers great sales gain is continuing through
the quiet weeks of mid-summer.
There may be a saturation point lor me
