Miss Claudia Blair and Harry P.*
Dowling were married at the home of
the bride, Eldorado Springs, Mo., Tues
day, October 3 It was quite a surprise
to the people of North Bend when Ihe
young couple arrived home Saturday
evening and the anuoucement was made
that they were married, although there
were a few who surmised that when
Harry went away the week before that
he was out on a mission that he did not
c»re to have hearlded about until the
knot hud been tied. The bride is well
known to a goodly number of North
Bend people, as she spent much of the
time some seven years ago in this city
with her aunt, Mrs. II. I. Adams, and
made tne acquaintance of a large circle
of friends. The groom needs no in
troduction to the people of North Bend.
Born and raised here he has always
been a favorite among the young men
of the community. During the past
few years Harry has not been at home
very much. From the time he entered
the State University, his time has been
occupied with study and holding res
ponsible position as clerk in different
capacity, and at the present time is the
assistant cashier of the Bank of North
Bend. This couple will be quits an ad
dition to the society of the cilv, and we
join in extending to them congratula
tions and wishes that their new state in
lift- will In- one <>t joy and prosperity.—

Ex-Governor Crounse arrived in the
ci'y yesterday morning from the‘west,
and after spending the day visiting old
time friends, addressed a large and en
thusiastic audience at the court-house
last night. The meeting was called to
order by H. II. Dickson, who, after a
few words of introductory, presented
Judge Alder, of Ainsworth, one of the
republican candidates for district judge,
who arrived in the city during the after
noon. Judge Alder spoke only for a few
moments, but long enough to convince
the voters present that he was compe
tent and qualified to deliver a good
address. During the course of his few
remarks lie pnid an eloquent and Justly
merited compliment to Judge Kinkaid,
which was loudly applauded
Ex Governor C'rounse who was to
make the address of the evening was
then presented and he received an ova
tion as he rose from his chair and step
ped to the front of the rostrum. He
opened his address by relating an amus
ing incedcnt that occurred many years
ago, the central figures of which were
the governor of Missouri and the Prince
of Wales. This at once put him on au
easy footing with his auditora and he
mmediately launched oil into a
thorough and learned discussion of
political issues. lie first took up the
McKinley tariff bill and showed his
audience the prosperous condition of
the country while that tariff was in
operation. He then came to the time
when democracy secured control of the
executive and legislative branch of the
government and repealed the McKinley
bill. After the repeal it was round that
revenue was necessary to defray the
expenses of the government anil the
Mills bill was introduced and passed by
the democrats, it being a modification
of the McKinley bill. The speaker
named a few articles upon which the
democrats greatly reduced the tariff, it
being apparent that the reduction was
not of any benefit to the {poorer classes.
Governor Crounso then took up the
question of the war with Spain and
traced it through the various stages of
development to the present time show
ing clearly to the unbiased minds that
tho administration could not do other
wise than maintain its present course in
the Philippines and be faithful to his
country. His remarks upon this ques
tion was an eye-opener to many present,
as he put the matter before them in a
different light than it had oyer been
presented before, clearly showing them
the justness of the policy pursued. The
governor had many friends in O’Neill
and by his address made many new
ones, and it is believed that his epeech
was beneficial to the party in this sec
tion.
A fellow by the name of Clark tried
to drink up all the good and bad
whiskey in O’Neill the other day and
thereby got himself into trouble which
might have gone seriously for him.
Shortly after six o’clock Monday even
ing Clark, whose parents live near Page,
went into the livery barn of P. D. and
J. F. Mullen and led off out the back
door a stallion belonging to the firm. The
barn hand saw Clark lead the horse
nwav, but thought perhaps Mr. Mullen
had sold him. When Mr. Mullen
returned about 7 o’clock,, the barn
man asked him what he got for the
stallion. Mullen took the question as
a joke and though being told that the
horse had been led away did not take
it seriously. Later in the evening he
hnppened in the back end of the barn
when he noticed that the stall occupied
by the stallion was empty. A posse of
men were got together and started in
persuit of Clark, who was overtaken
down near the Wynn place, only a mile
out ottown. Clark had been some two
horse traveling one mile. He dropped
his hold on the horse when his persuers
came up and made for a corn field. The
hosre was returned safely to bis stall
anil Clark on the morrow came into
town, when Marshal Uorriskey arrested
him. Mrs. Clark, mother of the chap
in custody, came up to O'Neill and
plead for the release of her erring son.
Young Clark appeared slightly dement
ed and it was thought best to release
him.
During the winter of 1897 Mr. James
Ileeii, one of the leading citizens and
merchants of Clay, Clay county, W. V.,
struck his leg against a cake of ice in
such a manner as to bruise it severely.
It became very much swolen and pained
Lira so badly that he could not walk
without the aid of crutches. lie was
treated by pliysicinns, also used several
kinds of liniment and two and a half
gallons of whiskey in bathing it, but
nothing gave any relief until he began
using Chamberlain’s Pain Ilalm. This
brought almost a complete cure in
a week’s time and he believes that had
he not used this remedy his leg would
have had to lie amputated amputated.
