Rev. D. B. Lake of Sterling
preached at the Methodist church
here last Sunday, both morning

missions. The churches at Ster

smallpox and scarlet fever pre
vailing in that town, so he was
enabled to favor us on this occas

meetings at Nebraska City,
Henry Culwell, one of the
pioneers of Nemaha county, died
at his home in Auburn at 11:30
p. m. Thursday of last week.
He had been in poor health for
over a year. The death of his
son, Joel Culwell, in January,
was a sad blow, and he had
grown worse since then. Mr.
Culwell was sheriff of Nemaha
county for three terms and was
one of our most highly respected
citizens. The funeral services
were held at two o'clock Sunday
afternoon.
Last week our buyer visited
the open market and while there
bought a complete line of spring

We believe we now have one of
the most complete lines of up-to
date merchandise ever shown in
Nemaha.
(Jome and see the goods, we
may have just what you want.
Yours truly,
Harrington & Sons.
The 2-cent-a-mile Railroad
Fare is now in Force
The law passed by the legisla
ture last week making a flat rate
of two cents a mile for railroad
fare, went into effect at midnight
Wednesday night, and you can
now travel at that rate anywhere
in the state, the fare to Anburn
is now 21 cents and to Brownville
10 cents.
The new law does away with
the half-fare rate for ministers
and they have to pay the same
fare as the rest of us.

Willie Yates Dead
Willie Yates died at the home
of his parents, Mr. and Mrs.
Sylvester Yates, in Nemaha.
Nebr., Monday, March 4, 1907,
at 8:45 a. m., aged 20 years,
months and 12 days.
A year ago last summer Willie
was struck in the groin by a
baseball. It was not thought at
the time that the injury amount
ed to anything serious, but it
continued to trouble him, and
about five months ago he had an
operation performed. He got up
and was apparently about well
for a few weeks, but got worse,
and about ten weeks ago a second
operation was performed. After
recovering from the direct
effects of this operation he was
able to get up town occasionally
out he soon grew worse, and for
the past seven weeks was unable
to sit up at all and most of that
time was in a helpless condition,
having to be lifted and turned in
bed. He suffered terribly much
of the time except when under
the influence of narcotics, and
gradually grew weaker until
end came.
Willie realized some time
that he could not recover,
the
ago
and
while wishing to live, said he
was prepared to die.
The direct cause of his death,
as given by the physicians who
attended him, was sarcoma, a
species of cancer.
Willie was born in Nemaha
and has lived here all his life.
He had a large number of friends
especially among the young
people, ana tnese were very
attentive to him during his long
sickness.
The funeral services, conducted
by Rev. G. W. Ayers, were held
at the Methodist church Tuesday
at 2 o'clock p. m. The church
was crowded with sympathizing
friends. Beautiful flowers were
furnished by his young associates
and also by Class No. 9 of the
Methodist Sunday school, of
which he was a member. The
pall bearers were Richard Knapp,
George Seid, Eddie Maxwell,
Ray Clark, Emery Howe and
Ned Maxwell.
The bereaved parents, brother
and sisters have the sympathy of
all in their great bereavement.
Card of Thanks
Mr. and Mrs. Sylvester Yates
and family ask us to express
their gratitude and thanks to the
friends who were so attentive
during the long sickness of their
son and brother, Willie Yates.
Their attention, assistance, kind
ness and sympathy will ever be
remembered with gratitude.
Elder John T. James, one of
the pioneer settlers of this part
of the state died at his home one
mile north of here, last Friday,
and was buried Tuesday. Rev.
James was for years a minister
of more than ordinary ability,
and with his neighbors and the
people who knew him best
Was I
held in the highest esteem. To
his aged wife; now very sick,
and to his sons and daughters
who remain, the sympathy of
mis entire community is exten
ded. Shubert Citizen.

The Teachers Meeting
The teachers meeting at Ne
maha last Saturday was, very
successful so far as the enter
tainment was concerned, but
g there were not so many there as
should have been. There was a
attendance of teachers, but
not so many as would have been
present if the roads had not been
so bad. Not many were present
except the teachers in the fore
noon, but in the afternoon the
opera house was fairly well filled.
The papers by Miss Nannie Ed
wards on "Beautifying School
Grounds," by Mrs. Hoadley on
"Some Things Expected of Par
ents by the Teachers," by Prof.
E. Guy Simpson on "Does a High
School Education Pay," by Miss
Lillian Neal on "Discipline," and
by Principal Geo. E. Martin of
Nebraska City on "Pictures and
School Room Decorations," were
all good. So were the discussions
on some of these topics. The
primary department of the Ne
maha school sang "Nemaha" and
"Little Sunbeams" in a credit
able manner.
We are very thankful to The
Advertiser for the correction of
an error which appeared in this
column. In writing of the meet
ings of the Christian church we
used the word "probation" in
stead of "protracted" and beg to
be forgiven. In returning the
courtesy we will say that a
grammatical error appears in
The Advertiser's item of criti
cism. Now we are quits. Ne
maha cor. in Auburn Republican.
If the aforesaid correspondent
attempts to call attention to all
the errors, grammatical and
otherwise, that we make, he will
be kept busy. But we notice
several grammatical errors in the
correspondence of our critic last
week, so we don't feel cast down
so much over our mistake as we
otherwise would.

"I was literally coughing myself to
death, and had become too weak to
leave my bed; and neighbors predicted
that I would never leave it alive; but
they got fooled, for thanks be to God, I

and restore me to good sound health,"

Clean Up Bargains
A large number of our friends have
taken advantage of the slaughter sale
of the stock of musical instruments we
bought of the Falls City Music Co. We
have a few fine organs and high-grade
pianos that we can still offer special
inducrments on to those who love a
bargain. To convince you, the regular
selling price and the reduction price is
plainly marked on the price tags, which
shows you how bad we want to clean
them up. Let us know your wants and
we will name the price that will sell
them. We want to close out these
o-nrtHs hfifore our buver coes east for
v. ovi.in- aViimnp.nt.R- nnd in order to
sav0 mixing these goods we will give
'you the benefit. A word to the wise
is better than a shock.
