Takes Tcur.sr Kan to Jail
A young man wen king on one of
the farms ne-ar Murdock is alleged
to have become sn.it ten with the
harms of a. fair (laughter of another
farmer and while his approaches were
not rc Ip: e-; ated. he continued to
make advances and it was found
necessary for the sheriff to come out
on last Thursday ami escort the
young man to jail, where an iiiejuiry
will be had as to his actions.
Attended Meftine: at Naperville
The Re v. Hugo A. Xorenberg, pas
tor of the Caliihan Evangelical
church, was a delegate to Xaperville.

from this section at the meeting of
the directors of Xorthwestern college,
from which institution many residing
in this vicinity have graduated.
This is Gocd Service
With the closing of this school
year, Alvin Bornemier has served as
the driver ef one of the school busses
fcr the past nine years and has dur
ing that time traveled in this capac
ity a distance of 4 0.500 miles, carry
ing an aggregate of S1.00 scholars
to and from school and during the
entire time has not had a sincrle ac
cident. This looks like a good record
and shows Mr. Rornemeier has had
the '"Safety First" idea uppermost in
libs mind at all times. While we have
the fierures only for this driver, we
are certain the records of W. O. Gil-U-spia
and Albert Theil range along
Fide of this one r.t to are of tin
pupils and freedom from accident, and
certainly speak well for the drivers of
the Murdcck school bussea.

resident, sought compensation from
Alta Lillian Nelson of Sev.aid, for
the death of Miss Runimtrfieid, which
occurred at Kanorado. lias., July IT,

there was last year.
Contrary to many peoples' belief,
'hoppers can be ccr.trolle-d by the
use of poison bran bait. The secret
of the control is the time of arpli

formula is easy to mix:
100 lbs. coarse fiakeci wheat bran.

crumbly mash. Mix bran and arsenic
and then add slowly the amyl ace

Lou Reichers
The recent rescue of Lou Rcichers, forced down at sea eff the Irib Coast v.hlle p-ttcmptiaj a Citht from
Newark, N. J., to Paris, by Captain George Fried, cf the President Roosevelt, odd one mure laurel to the
crown earned by the heroic skipper for a record of life-savins that is probably unmatched in the kirlory cf
the sea. Fried makes a habit of being on the spot just at the moment when he is most rj.ee!-.' R. ;
1&2S, Fried won international fame by his rescue of the entire crew of the Britio'i freighter Aniinoe, during
a rowing gale in the North Atlantic. For that feat of mercy, Fried was decorated by King George of Ln
land, thanked by President Coolidjje and received the acclaim of the entire world. Again in 1S2D, Frie'd
crashed into the limelight when he racsd through a terrific storm for 350 miles to the assistance of the
Italian freighter, Florida, foundering 700 miles off the Virginia Capes. First Officer Harry Manning was
highly praised by Fried for thct epirode, which resulted in the rescue of 32 officers and crew of the coor-.td
ship. Tremier Benito Mussolini of Italy was annongst the thousands from all over ti-.e wcr'd that cabled
their appreciation of Fried and Manning. The number of times that Captain Fried has performed minor
works of" mercy at sea are legion, but without those, his cpis of the Aniinoe unci Florida constitute a rch-wrj
of which the call&ut kIht of Isept.ne might be justly f ruud.
