Attempted Murder of
Guy Hileman
From Wcsthope, N. D., Standard.
Wliile sitting quietly reading by
the table at his home southwest ojf
this city last Friday evening, some
one wiui murder in his heart, crept
stealthily up to the window of tho
houso mid fired a load from a shot
gun at tho head of Guy Hileman.
Although badly wounded Hileman
had the presence of mind to blowout
the lamp, and then went to the door
to look out. Just as he did so an
other shot twas fired, which just
grazed his side. Jhe first shot fired
through the window struck him
alongside tho left eye, one grain en
tering the eye and it is feared ho
will lose his sight on that side.
Hileman walked to the home of
John Kerns where Dr. Durnin was
notified and also the sheriff's office.
He was brought to town and has
since been in the hospital.
bherilT McLean. Uenuty McKin-
non nnd Attorney Adams were out
there the next morning to investi
gate things, and discovered where a
horse had been tied to a post, but
had evidently becomfc frightened at
the shooting and broke away, as part
of a bridle was still hanging to the
post. Tracks led from where the
horse had been tied to the window
of the house, then around in front,
and from there the officers followed
the tracks across the fields about a
mile to the yard of J. C. Halsey.
One of Halsey's horses was found
lose in the yard with a bri..ou
bridle on.
The three Halsey boys were plac
ed under arrested and taken to Bot
tineau, but later the two younger
were let go. James, the older was
kept in care of the sheriff's office to
await hi3 preliminary hearing which
was held last night.
Whover the guilty party . is, the
deed was carefully planned, but
poorly executed. Hileman is a
quiet fellow, and thought he didn't
have an enemy in the world.
It is supposed the motive for the
crime was robbery as Hileman was
supposed to have drawn out a sum
of money from one of the Maxbass
banks that day, but had changed his
mind.

COTTON0EKD MEAL FOIl BOSSY
With dairy feeds at the present pri
oes, cottonseed meal nhould bo uboh
more extenBlvoly by Nebraska dairy
men ucoardiug to tho dopurtmout ul
duiry husbandry of tho collogo of tigri
oulturo. It is by far tho cheapest
Hour fo of proteiuln couooutruted form
that it is possible to supply the duirj
cow. Iu buying cottonseed meal at
this'timo, tho dairyman is not only
helping himself, but is doing u good
turn for tho South in its iinuuoiul ori
sis.
Wherotho duirytnan produces an
abundttuoo of alfalfa hay, howovor, he
will need only a limited amount ot
cottonseed meal: but whoro ho inusi
buy all his protein feo I, this source of
supply should not bo ovorlookod.
WHY FAKM LABOR IB SCARCE.
During at least six mouths of the
past year, Nobraska farmers havo had
difHoulty iu securing compotent help
nt any prioo. Iu view of tho faotthut
during tho Ranio period tboro wore
many unomployod in tho cities, why is
it so difficult to briug tho waiting job
nnd tho jobless mnn together? Ao
cording to thu department of farm
management of tho Nobraska College
ot Agrioulturo, "Tho oompeteut farm
hand can no Iougor bo olnssed as un
skilled lubor, Tho man who Btauds iu

can drive n four horse teuui, rot cul

to board him iu joturu for his labor.
Lon(r praotico is required to acquire

"Another factor which makes farm

George W Maxwell
Answers Death's Call
George W Maxwell, for thirty
eight years a resident of Dakota
county, passed away last Friday at
tho home of his half-sister, Miss
Nannie Don, north of town where he
had made his home for about eight
years. His death was duo to dropsy
and other ailments incident to old
age.
Deceased was born in Genesee
county, New York, October 8, 1845.
He came to this connty tfrom Hol
stein, Iowa, in 1876, and took up his
residence on a farm in Blyburg,
about five miles southeast of Homer,
where they resided until they sojd
the place and moved to tho farm
north of this place.
"Deceased Berved his country in
tho Civil war, and tho hardships and
privations endured there told on his
constitution in after years.
The funeral services were held
Sunday from his late home, and were
conducted by Rev P J Aucock, pas
tor of tho M E church in this place.
Burial was made in the family lot
in tho Dakota City cemetery, Mem
bers of the G A R post, of, which he
was a member, served as pall bear
ers. tho ontiro year and that suitable ac
comodations nro seldom provided for
tho hirod man's family. Farm lnbor
will bo soaroo in spito of the fact that
farm wages havo increased more rapid
ly than city wages until tho majority
of farmers nrrango their system of
farming to provide work for the ontiro
year nnd employ married men."
