Mrs. Mary J. Hoover on Mon
day arrived at the 66th milestone
of her journey through life, and
her daughter and daughter-in-law,
Mrs. J. E. Crother and
Mrs. Chas. C. Clark, arranged a
little surprise for her. They got
up a fine supper and invited a
few of her friends in. The sup
per was served at the home of
Mrs. Crother. It was a total
surprise to Mrs. Hoover so much
so that she did not at first recog
nize her own daughter, Mrs. J.
D. Rainey of Auburn, who had
come in for the occasion. Those
present, in addition to the fam
ilies of Mrs. Crother and Mrs.
Clark, were Dr. and Mrs. W. W.
Keeling, Mrs. Ellen Howe, Mrs.
Mary Chambers, and the editor.
The Holiness Campmeeting
The campmeeting in the park
is attracting fair audiences and
considerable interest is mani
fested, although at this writing
no converts have been made.
The ministers are very earnest
workers. They preach their doc
trine but say they do not come
here to tear down any other
church. They believe in entire
sanctification and in divine heal
ing of all diseases. They are
opposed to jewelry of all kinds,
feathers in ladies' hats, and in
general to fine clothing. The
following have been present dur
ing the meetings: Elders J. C.
Shafer, S. S. Orr, A. J. Rum
baugh, T. A. Vice, T. J. Mc
Cracken, T. D. Lane, J. D. Force,
E. D. Beeson, Frank Kern, Chas.
Tuttle, S. S. James and Gillman
Waldron.
The church organization is en
titled the Holiness Church of
Christ. They believe in church
organization, thus differing from
the come-outers. "
Health in the Gnnal Zone
The high wages paid make it a mighty
temptation to our young artisans to
join the force of skilled workmen need
ed to construct the Panama Canal.
Many are restrained however by the
fear of fevers and malaria. It is the
knowing ones those who have used
Electric Bitters, who go there without
this fear, well knowing they are safe
from malarious influence with Electric
Bitters on hand. Cures blood poison
too, biliousness, weakness and all stom
ach, liver and kidney troubles. Guar

RITCHEV
NEMAHA, NEB. $
Because some of the editor's
preferred candidates were not
nominated at the primaries, the
Jonnson News makes a roar, and
supports part of the candidates
on the other ticket. This would
be all right if the republican can
didates were unfit for the "office
or were not as well qualified as
the other fellows, or had got the
momination by unfair means.
But nothing of this kind is
charged. Bro. Stuck simply
feels sore because a majority of
the republicans thought some
other candidate was better for
the office than the man he was
supporting. He doesn't even
charge that his favorites were
Deuer tnan the ones chosen.
Keep sweet, Bro. Stuck. If
your candidates had been chosen
you would have been very indig
nant if any republican had kick
ed out of the traces. Do as you
would be done by.
Last Friday railroad men
working in the Missouri Pacific
yards and employes of the cann
ing factory were startled at hear
ing a terriffic crashing noise and
seeing a great cloud of dust emi
nating from a freight train which
had just pulled out of the yards.
The train was going at the rate
of twenty-five miles an hour and
when an examination was made
it was found that a car had jump
ed the track, had ripped up a
guard rail and crunched through
rotten ties, breaking a fish plate
and frog, in a quarter of a mile
running on the ground.
It finally bounced on the track
again and went along as smooth
ly as if nothing had happened.
The members of the train crew
were not aware that anything
had happened or that the train
had narrowly escaped an awful
wreck. It is a common saying
among the Missouri Pacific em
ployes that it is only the foreign
cars that jump the track.
The Missouri Pacific cars are
as dilapidated as the road and
readily adapted themselves to
the awful conditions that prevail.
Were this not a fact, they con
tend, it would be impossible to
run a train over the road. Au
burn Republican.
