more returned last Friday night fro
I Lincoln, where they had been in a

i lng as the representatives of tl

1 these gentlemen brought back fro
3 the Lincoln meeting the indicatioi
y are that real estate assessment will
n considerably increased this year, ov
s that of four years ago, when the la
t real estate assessment was made.

Pierce 'Leader:*Mr. and Mrs. Gust
Weinrlch of O’Neill spent last Thurs
day with Mr. and Mrs. Hjnry Melnert,
the two ladies being sisters. A few
years ago Mr. Weinrlch was a resident
of Pierce county but he saw the ad
vantage of buying Holt county land at
a cheap price and he went there and
invested in a farm. He is how the
proud owner of three eighties and he
says that he can dispose of them at a
fancy increase in price, but he says he
is not anxious to sell yet, as he is sure
that by holding his land a while long
er he will be able to get a large price
O’Neill has one of the linest Oatholli
schools in the state and Mr. Weinrlct
says that that country is rapidly till
ing up with people of that rellgioui
belief, most of them coming Iron
Iowa. As a rule they are well-to-d<
and invest in farms.
Farmers living in the Mlnneol:
country are feeling quite confiden
that the proposed inteiurban road
mention of which was mane in thes
' columns last week, will be built th
| coming season. Supervisors Tomllr
son says ttat engineers have bee
through that country and have glvei
| the people to understand that there i
' ample capital back of the propose
road. The idea of the promoter is t
■ get the power from the Niobrara rive
by damning it near the present tow
of Niobrara, and they claim that the
■ can secure ample power to run elei
. trie cars all over the state. If tt
dream of the promoter and those wfc
have confidence in his plans are real!
’ ed that section of Holt county woul
3 soon be as densely populated as it w:
• before the drought period that visite
e the western stats in 1894.

WAS A BILLIARD SHARK
Sanford Parker Won One Game on
Which $700 Had Been Staked.
Norfolk News: Sanford Parker, reg
ister of the O’Neill land office and old
timer In this territory, has been a real
live billiard “shark” in his day, and
still plays a beautiful game. He took
a cue in a game at the Elks and was a
spectator last night at one of the
matches, in the Elk tournment and
one of the bystanders, reminded him
of a match In which he participated
thirty-four years ago at Yankton, and
upon which #700 In real money chang
ed hands.
“It was in the winter of ‘76” Mr.
Parker said, “and we were at Yank
ton, waiting for a chance to get
through to the Black Hills. 1 was
playing billiards and there was a lo
cal man who was good at the game.
Yankton was filled up with gamblers
and they matched this local man and
me. I made one run of 105 and beat
him out on the 300 point game by
twenty points although he was a bet
ter player than I. My long run saved
me. 1 got #50 for playing the game.”
Mr. Parker was surprised to find so
much sleighing in Norfolk. At O’Ne
ill, he says, there Is no sleighing at all.
State Engineer Price of Lincoln wa
In the city last Thursday with the
plans of the proposed bridge aoruss
the Niobrara river at Parshalls crost
ing that was to be built under state
aid. The entlje Boyd county board
was present but definite action was
not taken as three members of the
Holt county board were in Lincoln at
tending the annual meeting of the
State Assessors and the other mem
bers did not wish to take any action
In their absence. Some of the mem
bers of the Holt county board wish to
change the proposed location of the
bridge, by moving it about four miles
further weBtand this action is con
contested by the members of
the Boyd county board. The
bridge proposed by the state engineer
is a concrete structure the estimated
cost of which he places at #24,000. Of
this amount the state of Nebraska is
to pay #12,000.00 and the counties
of Boyd and Holt #6,000.00 each, pro
viding the question over the location
Is definitely settled.
The Live Stock Market
South Omaha, Neb., Jan. 23, 191^..
—Special weekly market letter from
Nye, Schneider Fowler Go.
Since our last report the oattle
market will show a decline ot prob
ably 15 to 25 cents on the general run
ot killers, although comparatively lit
tle on the tew choice finished cattle.
The greatest decline is on the warm
ed up bindB and the butcher stock.
The slack demand has b( en partly at
tributed to the lack of the refrigera
' tor cats and the inability of tbe ratl
1 roads to handle the dressed beef. This
should be relieved by the milder
1 weather. On the other hand tha
1 milder weather usually creates a slack
’ demand. Choice feeders are in better
demand although the medium grades
i are still very dull,
