A man who was afraid of thunder crawled into a hollow log as a place of safety during a thunder storm. The thunder rolled, and the rain poured down in torrents, and the old log be gan to swell up till the poor fellow was wedged in so tight that he could ' not get out. All his past sins began passing before him. Suddenly he re 1 meinbered he hadn’t paid his news ' paper subscription, and he felt sc small that he was able to back right out. Now is a good time to take a glance over your backyards and devise some plan to ostracise the fruit cans anc ' rubbish which have accumulated since the last installment was re ’ moved. You can generally judge o: * the occupants of a bouse by the con dition in which the front and bact yards are kept In a general sense we t all pride ourselves on being clear i and tidy. Home and its surrounding! s above all places in the world sboulc , be scrupuausly guarded against con tamlnating influences, According to the new reapportion ment bill passed by the last legislat ure the Fifteenth Judicial district now compromises the counties {of Holt, Boyd, Rock and Keya Paha. There is not enough litigation in this district to keep a judge busy more than two months in the year, but the tax payers will have to put up the $3,000 per year for the judge and the $1,500 per year for the court reporter just the same.

Simmons, deputy stats en gineer, was In the city Monday having come from Lincoln to find some corn ers for John Grutch on bis farm north west of town. The corners were lo cated by County Surveyor Norton last fall but the work was not satisfactory to Mr. Grutch and he sent for the state engineer. He put in all day Monday upon the work and Mr. Grutch says that the corners located by him were from two feet to two rods from the corners located by the Coun ty Surveyor. Mr. Grutch says that he put down steel stakes and cemented them in and that his corners are now located permanently. Every laboring poor man should buy himself a town lot, get that paid for, and then work to make the necessary improvements. A little here and a lit tle there will in due time produce you a home of your own, and place you out of the landlords grasp; remember that Bfty dollars a year saved in rent, will in a very few years pay for your home, and the money it costs you to move and shift about, without a loss of fur niture and time, pay the interest on a Bve hundred dollar judgment against your property, until you can gradually reduce it to nothing. You can all buy that way—why do you not risk it? If you fail you are no worse off—If you succeed, as any careful man is sure to do, you have made a home and estab lished a basis equal to another’s which will start you in business. Thomas Cantwell, for many years a resident of Verdigris township, this county, died at Creighton, Neb., last Saturday evening. Monday’s Norfolk News contained the following account of his death; “Thomas C, Cantwell, proprietor of the Cantwell feed barn, Breach avenue and Third street, and whose residence is at 202 North Eight street, died from heart failure at Creighton early Saturday evening. The remains were brought to Norfolk by Mrs. Cantwell, who was called to Creighton Saturday morning. Mr. Cantwell had gone to Creighton about a week ago on business, and while there suffered a shock several days ago. He had been laid up at the home of friends and was to have come home Saturday when overtaken by the fatal shock.

How ever Mrs. Stanton seemed to be gain ing and Harry was expected home Iasi Thursday evening. He did not returr and Friday his family received a tele gram stating that H. W. Stanton was in the general hospital, critically 11 and requesting that somebody come In response Fred left on Saturday’! early train for the bedside of bis broth er, remaining with him until deatl came Monday. From a statement o the attending physician, death wa: caused by acute blood poisoning, de veloping from a scratch which ha< been neglected, the infectous germ beiDg communucated to the cut by contact to the wearing apparrel. The doctor further stated that the process was so acute that from the first no hope was entertained for Harry’s re jcovery. The above are the circum stances surrounding the brief illness and suddetv death of one of Ewing’s foremost business men. Apparently in perfect health, he had gone to the bedside of his sick wife, intending to return as soon as her condition would permit, But fate determined other wise. Harry was stricken with the malady In its worst form and without warning. He was beyond the reach of medical aid and today this community is bowed down with grief as a result of his sudden demise.
