How Small Gardens Will Make Money
Many people of refined tastes now culti
vate gardens out of working hours It
is a delightful as well as healthful pas
time and do you realize that your little
garden could also bo linde a source of
Kood profit with very small first cost
jIany thiuk that usual things must be
grown with great trouble in order to
make money from the garden but this
is not so Among flowers asters and
sweet peas are good producers and sell
well while vegetables such as cabbage
cauliflower peas and beans rhubarb
and especially asparagus and parsley are
line money makers We notice some
valuable suggestions along these lines in
Vaughans new Seed Catalog- for 1905
Vaughans Seed Stores Chicago and
New York Parsley for instance which
is easv and clean to crow will produce
SoO00 or more from a quarter pound of
seed These hints are worth investigat
ing

A Letter From the Lyceum Bureau
Lincoln Neb Jan 17 1905
C tizens Lecture Committee Mc
Cook Neb Gentlemen In reply to your
letter of tbe 11th wo regret that tho
sickness of Mr Lipskis mother prevent
ed his appearing with the Hungarian
Orchestra as with him you would have
had a right to expect a first class per
formance This is the first date ho has
over missed except the ono at Omaha
and tho circumstances are such that wo
cannot well blame him The other lead
er not being acquainted with the com
pany was not satisfactory aud this is
perhaps why Sir Brown took his place
Regarding tbe Butler company we
rank them among the best of the kind
in America It is a disputed question as
to who is Americas best violinist but
many excellent musicians say Mr Butler
is the man There is no doubt that
Madame Wunderle for six years tho
solo harpist with the Thomas Orchestra
is the best lady harpist in this country
Mr Butler assured tho writes that he
had a soprano who was an equal star
with tho others and says he has
never presented so fino a company as
this Wo therefore feel that your pa
trons will be pleased beyond question
with tho compauy Yours truly

Frank Cashen shot himself through
the head with fatal results Wednesday
night at tho C O Hale farm a fow
miles northwest of this city But little
or nothing is known of tho sad affair
Frank had been in town Wednesday
and toward evening went homo together
with Ed Droll J H Whittakor John
ileinlein and son Early in theovening
Droll and Whittakor went over to
lleiuleiris leaving Cashen alono at
home as ho wished About ten oclock
in tho evening Droll and Whittaker ro
turned to tho Hale farm where Cashen
and Droll aro batching and retired
Whittaker going to bed with Cashen
who had already retired and Droll sleep
ing on a couch at the foot of tho bed
all in tho same room No light was
used iu tho room a lamp being kept on
the table in another room which threw
a little light into tho bfd room and over
the foot of the bed Whittaker savs ho
heard Cashen breathing heavily when
he went tombed In the morning after
breakfast had been prepared Droll went
into the bed room to arouse Cashen
who failed to respond to the calls from
the other room Cashen was found to be
cold in death He evidently shot him
self while the others were at the
jeni lann lie never nioveo arcer cue
shooting the revolver fell down between
his arm and body in the bed In tho
darkness nothing uncommon was
ed by the others who thought he was
sleeping heavily he having been drink
ing somewbaUduriug the day His bed
fellow states that he was careful in get
ting into tho bed to not disturb him
Dr A C Harlan went to the scene
Thursday afternoon and the verdict was
in keeping with the very evident fact
that he had committed suicide by shoot
ing himself as above stated
It is suited that tho deceased had
threatened to commit such a deed and
on one or more occasions had to be re
strained from tho act He had been
subject to attacks of melancholy since
tho death of his father
The bereaved family have much sym
