We notice a good many people
coming in from other towns to
fish. We have also noticed that
after trying their luck awhile
they invariably hunt up our loca
fishermen, and after a few min
utes' talk some money changes
hands, and they go back home
and show with pride what a nice
string of fish they caught.

death of Mrs. Frank W. Irish at
her home in Alliance. The item
was mislaid. The notice, which
was taken from an Alliance pa
per, did not give the date of i
her death, and Mrs. Fuller did
not know it. Mrs. Irish, whose
maiden name was Ida B. Wills,
... i
was well Known to many or our
citizens. She leaves a husband,
an infant child, a mother, three
sisters and a brother to mourn
her loss.

the marriage of Mr. and Mrs.
Ray Clark last Christmas. The

Gates, well known to many of
our citizens. The bride is a sis
ter of Mrs. Frank Maxwell. Both
are very popular young people.
May they have a long life of
happiness together.

luck and did not get there until
after the wedding was over.
They came in early to take the 7

Rev. J. W. Sapp has sold his
residence property to G. F. Rider.
But he doesn't intend to leave
Nemaha, as he immediately
bought a lot off the north side of
Uncle Henry Clark's property
and a strip 22x120 feet off the
south side of Rufus Rowen's
property, the two pieces joining,
and will build a neat cottage
thereon, similar to the one he is
now living in. He will begin
building as soon as he can get
the material together and the
carpenters to work. The price
paid for the property sold was
$1400. Mr. Rider is to get pos

Monday morning, while wait
ing for the train from the south
to arrive, people at the depot
had their attention attracted to
fish playing around in the water
east of the track. After watch
ing them for a little while the
temptation became too great for
Sam Gillespie to resist, so he got
a club, waded out in the water,
going in waist deep, and knocked
a fish senseless. He waded out
with the fish, which was a carp
and weighed 17 1-2 pounds. In
a short time the water was filled
with men and boys armed with
gigs, pitchforks, guns and clubs,
but not many more fish were
caught.
"Health Coffee" is really the closest
coffee imitation ever yet produced. This
clever coffee substitute was recently
produced by Dr. Shoop of Racine, Wis.
Not a grain of real coffee in it either
Dr. Shoop's Health Coffee is made
from pure toasted grains, with malt
nuts, etc. Really it would fool an ex
pertwho might drink it for coffee.
No 20 or 30 minutes tedious boiling.
'Made in a minute" says the doctor.
Sold by all dealers.
