OHOLERA OUnilB IN WATER 8UITLY
Havo you reasonable assuranoo that
your bogs aro not driukiug water lad

drinking water from a crook or slough?
It may bo that tbo pioturosquo atroam
(lowing tbrn tho bog pasture contains

much to purify tho stream bb it passes
from ono farm to another, but many
oases of obolora havo boon traeod to
tbo soopago from obolora infeotod spots
far beyond tbo knowledgo of tbo man

Sioux Oity Journal, 27. Earl O
Clark, 1117 Nobraska street, who was
injured about tho faco noar South
Sioux Oity Wednesday, is improving
it his homo. Tbare is no doubt about
bis recovery, it is stated. Members of
Clark's family reiterated denial of re
ports that bo shot himsolf twice in tho
head purposoly while on a bunting trip.
His physician, Dr L W Dimsdulo, cor
roborated the donial, Tho explana
tion of the affair givou is that Clatk
was thrown from an automobilo, wbon
it mado a sharp turn in tho road, and
that his injuries woro recoivod in that
way. It was not udvisablo to let
strangers seo tbo injured man until ho
recovers moro fully from tho shock of
tho accident, it was stated at tho homo.
That somo unidentified man did shoot
himsolf under circumstances similar
to thoso of Mr Olark's trip ia authen
ticated by witnesses of tbo shooting.
It was reports of this unquestioned at
tempt at auicido which gave rise to
tbo allegations concerning Mr Clark.
Polioo Chief A L olatbwig, of South
Sioux Oity, and polico authorities in
Sioux Oity were informed of the shoot
ing affair, Tbo story of tho noar aui
cido was told yesterduy bv Rajmond,
Phillip and Susie Waddell, children
of Ira Waddell, a farmer living on
Walker's Island. "Wo woro on our
way bomo from school," said Raymond
Waddell, "Two men curao by in a
buggy. Thoy woro shooting in the
air with revolvers. Tbo next tbiog
wo saw, ono of tho men fired two shots
and killod a dog that waa running
along at tbo aide of tbo buggy. Then
ho turned thoplatol to hisfauoaud shot
it flvo times. The trigger snapped throe
timos and tho gun didn't go off. Tbo
next two shots hit him in tho nook or
faco, wo couldn't toll which. Tho
man fell to the ground. An automo
bilo oamo along and took him to Sioux
Oity." Tbo shooting took plaoo near
the farm of John Sohn. Sobn did
not soo tho shooting, however. He
