We understand Mrs. Gortner and son, Bossa, will shortly move to Neligh to secure better educational advantages. Since Dr. Gallagher’s return he has found plenty of employment in dental work near home, so he may not return to Minneapolis soon. Will Lowrie preaches at Lambert in his father’s place. We presume i the retiring member will now follow his choice work of discussing poli tics, unhindered by church work or soul saving. Morals are certainly improving in eastern Holt, for the late Sunday excursion to Sioux City failed to in duce our Sabbath school superin tendent to leave his post to go with it, as has been his custom heretofore.

A very valuable heifer belonging to Dan O’Donnell had its leg broken the other day by a passing freight. Two of Stafford’s young men at tended the ball game at Dry Creek last Sunday.

D., here on bicycles. We are pleased to learn that “Pat ’ Townsend is rapidly recover ing and expects to be able to come home Saturday. There was a dance at Pago Mon day evening and some of the Staf ford “hay” men made so much noise coming hpme they awoke the town. A great number of cattle is being shipped east at present, five trains passed through town the other day with a very short time between them. EMMET. Miss Mallpy went to O’Neill Sun day.

Kesenhold had business in O’Neill Saturday. Mina Clark is attending the Teachers Institute in O’Neill. Miss Lillian White is visiting with her cousin Mrs. Charles Shoemaker. John McKenna made his semi weekly trip to Atkinson Thursday. Why? George Shoemaker who was kick ed by a horse a few weeks ago is improving. A team from north of O’Neill played McCaffrey Sunday and whipped them severely. Ambrose Slattery is the proud posessor of a fine trotting horse which is the envy of all Dry Creek. The terrible storm came nearly bringing the writer to an end Satur day last, and consequently news is scarce. Uncle Dan, captain of the Stafford nine, attended the ball game at Shaws Sunday. His force will play McCaffrey in Stafford Sunday next. The McCaffreys played the Dry Creeks Sunday. The score stood 11 to 12 in favor of the McCaffreys. Now, crow McCaffreyites, although it was just by chance you gained that one score. We fear the McCaffrey correspon dent misunderstands, as we are not aware that the “rubber necks” the Dry Creek girls had “to let” belong t) McCaffrey, or at least, play ball. But, if you think tho shoe tits, wear it. Tho McCaffreyites seem to be laboring under the impression that they ran up against a gang of chumps, just because tho Dry Creek taught them how to play ball, but they are decidedly mistaken, our boys are gentlemen everyone of | them.

The Verb to "Jew.” The earlier editions of Webster’s Dictionary contained a verb, “to Jew,’’ and defined it “to cheat,” “to play with,” etc. At the request of a number of Influential Israelites, the word was eliminated from the book. As a mat ter of fact, however, the word had no connection with or reference to the fol lowers of the Mosaic faith. It was de rived from the French “jeu,” and “jouir,” which means “to play with,” “to cheat,” etc., but its orthography had become corrupted to “Jew.” It did not appear in subsequent editions of the work.—Hebrew Standard. Candlo l Potatoes. Candied sweet potatoes are prepared by boiling them until they are thor oughly cooked, but not mealy. Thej are then peeled and sliced. A shallow dish or tin is smeared with butter, ano a layer of the sliced potatoes then pul in; over this sugar is sprinkled, then another layer of potatoes and anothei of sugar, with a few bits of butter on top. Some cooks add a very little ma ple syrup Just before putting them Intc the oven.
