kins was born at Eight Mile Grove,

thriving business in the sparsely set
tled frontier country, the birth of
this man being February 14th. 1866.

railroad here and abandoning the
mercantile business, which he had in
Eight Mile Grove, and establishing
a business in Murray, which he con
ducted for a number of years. He
i also accumulated a competency, in
'two farms at the place where he had
lived, and with the advancing years
disposed of his mercantile business
and remained a resident in Murray,
devoting his time to the care of his
I invalid mother until but a short time
i since, death claimed this excellent
woman, and then Mr. Walter E. Jen
kins went to Chicago to make his
home with his nephew. Earl Jen
kins, remaining until the breaking
of the First National bank of Platts
mouth. when he returned to look
after his interests there, and has
since made his home in Murray. Ihn
.ing the past year he has been in fail
ing health and on May 3rd passed to
rest. The funeral was held on last
Sunday at Murray, conducted by the
Rev. W. A. Taylor, and the interment
made at the pleasant Eight Mile
Grove cemetery near where he was

,tive life.

From 'Wednesday s Dally
Yesterday afternoon V. L. Clause,
one of the employes of the Lyman
Richey sand pits north of this city,
suffered a very severe accident and
one that was fortunate in that it
was not more serious for the victim
of the accident.
Mr. Clause with another workman
was engaged in helping get the finer
sand that is being turned out at the
pit. when two sections of the trough
that is used in the production of the
fine sand suddenly collapsed and re
sulted in the injury of Mr. Clause.
It is thought that the man fell on
the pieces of the trough and a large
amount of the sand then fell onto
him and as the result his injuries
were very painful but fortunately
not dangerous.
His face and neck was cut very
badly and had to have a number of
