W. W. Stokes, who is employed
with the Burlington bridge gang,
got a hard fall last Friday. He
was working on the bridge across
the Nemaha 'river south of town
when the rod with' which he was
turning a jack screw slipped out
and he was thrown to the frozen
ground. He fell only six or
eight feet but was badly shaken
up and bruised and his left hand
sprained. He felt sore for
several days.
V. W. Liebhart had bad luck
With a recent sale of a barred
Plymouth Rock cockrcll he made
to an Oklahoma party. The bird
was a good one but some one
stole it en route and substituted
a very inferior one. Mr. Lieb
hart at first suspected that the
Oklahoma purchaser was trying
to get out of paying for the fowl,
but affidavits were sent him
showing the kind of a cockrell
arrived there, and he was con
vinced that the trouble was made
by some one trrding cockrells on
the road. He returned the
monev he had received for the
- w
bird.
The meetings at the Methodist
church closed Sunday night.
They lasted for four weeks, the
first week' being conducted by
the pastor, Rev. G. W. Ayers,
until Saturday night, and since
that time, with the exception of
one night last week, by the con
ference evangelist, Rev. W. H.
Prescott Meetings were held
'every night and for the last three
weeks every afternoon. Chil
dren's meetings were held at the
close of school for two weeks.
Bro. Prescott is an earnest, con
secrated worker; Seven persons
united with the' church Sunday
night
To all to whom these presence
may come, greeting:
