at that time, had no saloons. There
was a time that it bad wicked soda
at her home in York. (York, even
fountains, however.)
The Northwestern railroad com
pany has decided not to change the
name of Newman Grove. (Probably
that is what has kept the town from ,
growing. Sounds like a picnic spot.) j
rraine iires are sun raging,
and nl some portions of the state are
earning considerable damage. J
There is a new town on the Bur
lington & Missouri railroad in noith
ern Nebraska called Hell? (What's
In a name?)
The city council of Wahoo has pro
hibited the building of stockyards
within the limits of tnat city. (We
always thought that a Bohemian
population would be right at home
In that sort of an atmosphere.)
A tramp, name unknown, suicided
at Brownvllle by throwing himself
under a passing freight train. (He
is. so we have it on good authority,
still dead.)
Three thousand and nine hundred
tax receipts have been issued by the
treasurer of Seward county for 1885.
(Remember the long list of delin
quent taxes that the newspaper used
to publish?)
William Ryder of Dunbar is the
happy owner of a six-year-old Dur
ham that, weighs over 4,000 pounds.
(Some bull.) '
Mrs. Robert McXut has sued the
saloonkeepers of Elkhorn for $3,000
damages for selling liquor to her
husband. (Bet she lost the case.)
The Methodists of Hastings dis
trict are trying to secure suitable
grounds on the Blue river, where
they can hold camp meetings. (This
must have been abandoned. There
are no good camping sites on the
Blue river.) . . .lj.
St. Paul has a chautauqua circle
composed of twelve ladles and gen
tlenien of that place. Weekly meet
Jngs are held, and It Is now one of
the leading attractions of the city
(And here we had been believing
I that the chautauqua was a more of
less modern institution. However,
history doesn't record that the mem'
bers of this association used the now
far famed chautauqua salute.)
Martin Martins, a German boy,
was instantly killed near Indianola
recently. He was being let down
Into a well 160 feet deep, when the
rope broke and he was dashed to the
bottom. (Hanged if we can see why
they should lower him Into a well,
anyway. Sounds fishy to us.)
Frank Warren borrowed a, team
from a livery stable In Hastings Fri
day night and disappeared with the
rig. The livery man offers a reward
of $160 for A five-minute Interview
with Warren. (How long has It been
since you hired a livery team to take
your best girl out rldlrig? The last
time we did this the blasted nag ran
away and we remember that inter
view.) - i , ;
The chief of police at Hastings" has
notlfed the saloonkeepers of that
place that they must close at 11
o'clock at night, instead of 12i as"
heretofore. The order will prob
ably be resisted. (If the saloonkeep
ers hadn't resisted so many orders,
that name wouldn't have to be taken
out of the dictionary.)
The county commissioners' r on
Monday filed tt complaint against
County Judge C. J. Jacksbn at Hold-
rege, which charges him with wilful
and gross neglect of his offical du
ties, with drunkenness and with Mal
feasance In office. It Is thought he
will resign, as Impeachment is al
most certain. (Do you recall how
excited people were, a few years ago,
over the recall" of lodges? Oh, well,
mighty few of thvni will ever be re
moved ror drunkeiness from now
on. Their salaries' wouldn't permit
them to lay away a supply, and the
confiscated stuff nil groea into the
gutter. Maybe the btate agntg get
a snifter now and then, but every
body else pays the market pr&. or
is out of luck.)
The war plans division of the gen
eral staff has worked out a tabula
tion of the subjects taught in array
educational and vocational training
classes as of the end of February,
1920. There were at this time 29,
265 nun enrolled in 172 different
courses. Of these students, 28,381
were taking 122 courses in classes
ranging in size from one to 84. Ap
parently the greater interest or at
least the greatest attendance ' is
found in the English classes con
ducted at eighty-five different posts
and studied by 2.506 men. Next in
Interest apparently comes arlthme-
tic, while spelling and automobile re
pairing vie with each other for third
place. Penmanship, auto driving,
truck driving, history typing, and
geography all seem to be popular
subjects. The trades being studied
in which only a few men appear to
be interested are: Gunsmith me
chanic, one; linotyper and litho
grapher, two each; embalmer, five;
locomotive engineer, four; salesman,
one. Practically everything In the
line of general science, langu ages
and professional subjects Is being
taught. The courses literally run
rroni agronomy to X-ray operator;
no subjects beginning with Y or Z
seem to be included. The whole
course and the Interest displayed Is
indicative of the efforts of the army
to teach men professions and trades
which will fit them to be better citi
zens upon their discharge.
