The Holt County Teachers’ associ ation will hold a meeting in O’Neill, December 14,1907. An excellent program is being pre pared for the benefit of the teachers of the county.

Jensen entered into a re cognizance of $200 to appear on De cemb« 7,1907, to answer said charge. R. J. Marsh is laid up at his home with a sore and badly swoolen foot, caused by Mr. Marsh’s first attempt at chiropody. He was annoyed by a large and particularly obstreperous com upon the little toe which refused to come off. Mr. Marsh uprooted the same, a considerable portion of the pedal extremity clinging to the roots. It bled prof used! v and has now devel oped into a pretty bad foot. John Grutsch returned last Satur day evening from a five weeks visit with relatives and friends at his old home at New London, Canada, and says he Is glad to get back. John says he could not again be induced to live in that country, and although it has been twenty-three years since he left there the change in that time is not as great, he says, as it would be in the west in the same period. Holt county looks better than ever to him now. Thanksgiving evening worshippers were diBapointed and a union praise service forstalled at the Presbyterian church last Thursday evening by the gasoline lighting apparatus refusing to supply the necessary illumination. A goodly sized audience had assembled, the choir had sung the opening song, “Praise God From Whom All Bless ings Flow,” and the pastor, Rev. Mr. Sfetlhorst, bad offered prayer, when the lights went out. The audience was dismissed with the explanation that the “plant was knocked out.” John O’Donnell returned last week from Seattle and other western cities where he has been the past eight months and will remain at home this winter. Jack says things in Seattle, and in fact in all the western cities, is at a standstill and the indications are that a' good many people will go broke before things commence to climb up ward again. The former O’Neillites whom he met in the west seem to be prospering. The old sheds and superanuated structures at the rear of the Golden Furniture and Hardware company’s buildings have been torn away to make room for a large two story extension, the foundation for which is now being laid. The extension is being put up for a machine and implement house, a new line the company is just putting in. It will be equipped with an ele vator for hoisting and lowering heavy machinery. A force of men are now at work on the grounds and the build ing will be pushed along rapidly. Mrs. S, F. McNIchols died at the home of her mother in Colo, Iowa, last Monday morning at 2 o’clock. Deceased left here about three weeks ago to attend the funeral of her father and while she had been ailing the past few months her sickness was not con sidered serious and she contemplated going to Des Moines for medical treat ment before returning home. The funeral was held yesterday, the re mains being interred at Colo. We have been unable to learn the cause of death and obituary will appear next week. The sudden death of Mrs. Mo Nichols is a sad blow to her family, relatives and friends, and the sorrow ing husband and children have the heartfelt sympathy of the entire com munity.
