James Ilollinrake received an injury
while fixing a windmill Sunday which
is very painful and might easily have
destroyed the sight of his right eye. A
spring broke, striking him in the eye

slightly. We always said it was more
dangerous on a farm or ranch than on
the railroad. This Is demonstration.

jThe operator for the Heatrlce Cream
ery Co. asked me to insert the follow
ing statement of Matthew Iieaumont:
"About a month ago I was milking
nine cows and got approximately 200
pounds of milk daily. From this I got
24 to 25 pounds of cream. Now I am
milking thirteen cows and get about
300 pounds of milk each day and get 21
to 23 pounds of cream. I think it must
be in range conditions or something
not well understood that causes the
general falling off tests of milk." Mr.
Pierce sayB that the company, in reply
to letters written concerning the re
markably low tests, says: "The same
condition prevails throughout the
state." They offer no explanation.
Th tests for tho first half of July are
SMftSiderably better.

PlcnOE. Rifortir,
Occasionally, now that tho Irriga
tion law has been passed, wo get inqui
ries from eastern parties holding land
in llox llutto county asking what tho
prospects for Irrigation are here. It
looks now ns though the prospect was
very remote but Is it moro impossi
ble than was a trascontlncntal railway
or n submarine cable or many others of
tho wonderful achievements of other
people? Many level headed men be
lieve It Is feaslblo to irrigate a largo
part of the semi-arid west. Irrigating
a part will doubless increase tho rain
fall for tho whole and the saying that
"Tho rain follows the mau" may re
eclvo another vindication.

tations. While the third room was
not definitely decided upon and no
teacher employed to teach It we are
informed that it is practically assured.
Wo are informed that with excoption

Last Friday night the Maccabee lodge
gave an interesting program at the opera
house consisting of both musical and liter

by a number of the ladies which was very
good. No bloomer costumes were worn,

ed off with a social dance which was great
ly enjoyed by all prewmt. The tidy little
sum of S40 was the outcome of the entertainment.
Two Great Attractions.

great satisfaction and pleasure to learn
that in the opera house, two nights, July
25 and 26, will be presented those two ex
citing dramas, "Jesso James" and "Under
Two Flags," by the Louise McCallum
Stock Co. This company with Louise Mc
Callum played in Alliance last season to a
big house and every one present was more
than pleased with the performance. The
same company will give the performances
as above noted with special scenery and
elegant costumes. On the first night, July
25, will be played "Jesse James," in which
the exciting incidents of their remarkable
career will be portrayed truo to life. The
play is filled with thrilling situations which
include a realistic train hold-up, the res
ell o of a young girl from a railroad track
and ending with the killing of Jesso James
by Bob Ford. The second night, July 26,
will be repeated the thrilling drama, "Un
der Two Flags," the play one never tires
of seeing, no matter how often played.
Professor Moore's orchestra will enliven
the occasion between acts and a well filled
house will no doubt show a hearty appre
ciation of tho city's being favored by so
large and excellent a company.

Dennis Carpenter.
Peacfully at the family home in Carpen
ter at 5 o'clock July 11, the soul of Dennis
Carpenter took its flight to the realms of
bliss. In January last, Mr. Carpenter was
taken with Brights disease and went down
gradually to tho end. He was born in In
diana, July 20, 1832. When but a child,
he came with his parents to Iowa, where
he grew to man's estate and married Miss
Lucinda Porter. In March of 188C, he
brought his family to Nebraska, and in
1888 to the neighborhood where he has
since resided. To Mr. and Mrs. Carpen
ter, ten children were born, seven boys
and three girls. Three sons and one daugh
ter have died. The faithful and loving
mother was laid to rest the 26th of last
December. Mr. Carpenter's funeral was
held from his late home last Sunday after
noon at 2 o'clock, and was very largely at
tended by smypathizing friends and neigh
bors. Rev. Jeffers of Alliance, officiated.
Remains were placed beside his wife in
Illinois Valley. For six years, Mr. Car
penter has been a consistent and devoted
member of the Carpenter church.

The many friends in this city and county
of Mrs. M. Ursula Ellis, formerly the
wife of H. J. Ellis, proprietor of the Alli

est the following brief letter addressed to
the editor of this paper under date of July
5, and written from Los Angeles, California:
Dear Sir Please find enclosed $1.50
for which send tho Herald for one year
to address given below. I have accepted
a position with the California Independent,
a religious paper of one thousand circula
tion and published by a man who was
once a Methodist minister. Think I shall
be pleased with the situation.
Most respectfully,
Mrs. M. Ursula Ellis.

The Misses Elmore entertained last
Friday evening in honor of Misses Nellie
Hillier, May McDermott and Marie El
more, who had just returned from attend
ing schools in the eastern part of the state,
at a proposal party. Cozy corners were
arranged on the lawn, the whole being
brilliantly lighted up, and as the guests
arrived each was presented with a heart
and a number corresponding to one of
the nooks. At a given signal the gentle
men "went a-wooing" and at the end of
ten minutes the lady whose company a
gentleman had sought gave him a heart or
a mitten with which she had been pro
vided for refusals. The game provoked
much merriment and after a dainty repast
was served the hearts were counted when
it was learned that E. S. Jackson was the
most successful "proposer" present.
Tell the Truth and Shamo the Devil.
T. J. O'Keefe, Alliance. Neb. Dear
sir: We have missed the two last issues of
the Herald, can't find them either at Al
liance or Box Butte. We wish them sent
to Box Butte now. We cannot get along
without the Herald. Besides being one
of the brightest, newsiest papers in the
state, it will tell the truth. That is
much in this day and age. Keep right
on telling the truth and shaming the dsvii
and the Herald will stay where it belongs
at the topmost rung of the ladder. Re
spectfully, O. Gilbert.

Itc Was Looking for Trouble
An Arkansas gentleman started out
the other day to dynamite a neighbor
of whom he did not approve. The lat

pecting that his intentions might be of
the strenuous variety, landed a rille
ball directly In the pocket in which the
dynamite was located. In case they
are ablo to prove the corpus delicti
there may be some some litigation over
tho matter. Washington Post.
Tho Passion Play.
A biograph reproduction of the "Passion
Play" of Oberammergrau will bo given
in the opera house on the evening of July
30, under the auspices of the M. E. church.
The Salina (Kan.) Daily Republican has
this to say:
A large audience witnessed the biograph
reproduction of tho "Passion Play" of
Oberammergrau given at the opera house
last evening under the auspices of the
First Methodist church. The exhibition
was quite interesting and at times tho au
dience was absorbed with tho realistic
rendition of the emotional parts. An ad
ditional effect was given during the differ
ent scenes by the singing of saored songs
and violin renditions by Prof. Rossignol
and his students. The "Passion Play" is
highly moral and beneficial wherever
produced. The church realized about
$130.00 from the entertainment.
The many friends of F. M. Dorrington
in this section of the country will be pleas

ed as Register of the United States Land
Office at Alliance. For forty years Mr.
Dorrington has worked for the interest of
the republican party and has talked in
almost every school house in northwest
Nebraska. His knowledge of land laws
has been of great benefit to the settlers of
this land district and he is an honest man
who has always performed his duty. The
people of this district aro well pleased with
the appointment. Harrison Sun.
The Perfect Ltvcr .Medicine.
Mrs. M. A. Jolley, Noble, O T.,
writes: "I have used Hcrbino for a
number of years, nnd can cheerfully
recommend it ns the most perfect liver
medicine and grentest blood purifyer.
It is a medicine of positive merit and
fully accomplishes ull that Is claimed
for it." Malaria can find no lodgement
in the system while the liver is in per
fect order, for one of its functions is
to provent the absorption of fever pro
ducing poisons. Herbine is a most
efficient liver regulator. 50c at F. J.

"My mother suffered a long time from
distressing pains and general ill health
due primarily to indigestion," says L. W.
Spalding, Verona, Mo. "Two years ago I
got her to try Kodol. She grew better at
once and now at the age of seventy-six,
eats anything she wants, remarking that
he fears no bad effects as she has her bot
tle of Kodol handy." Don't waste time
doctoring symptoms but go after the cause.
If your stomach is sound your health will
be good. Kodol rests the stomache and
strengthens the body by digesting your
food. It is nature's own tonic. F. E.
