seems to be checked in that immedi
ate vicinity but he does not believe it
will be entirely eradicated until we

ty. Deceased leaves a son, Patrick

The oldest inhabitant has been
compelled to “go away .back and sit
down,” the snow whloh fell in this
city last Tuesday was the cause
Heretofore when anything out of the
ordinary happened in certain seasons
of the year, the seeker for knowledge
could always go to the city scale office
and there find some old timer who
would say that that was nothing to
what happened way back in the
seventies or the early eighties. But
none can be found who will say that
we have had a snow fall in this
country as early as September 24, up
on which date snow fell in O’Neill in
1912. The same night a killing frost
visited this section, which will put a
stop to the growth of all vegetation.
Many farmers think the frost will be
a benefit Instead of a determint tc
the corn crop while others think i
good deal of the late corn will be
graately Injured. Time alone can
tell which Is right.
Mr. and Mrs. Ralph Evans and
children airlved in the city last Sat
urday evening from Cordova, Alaska,

Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Evans. Mr. and
Mrs. Evans went Into Alaska live
years ago this fall and say they are
glad to get back to God’s country.
Mr. Evans has received an appoint
ment In the government forest reserve
and wlil be stationed in either Wash
ington or Oregon, should he decide to
aocept the appointment, and will go
up there about the iirst of the year.
Ralph, however, says that O’Neill
looks pretty good to him and he may
decide to remain with us.
Mrs. Catherine Murphy died last
Friday noon at the home of her
daughter, Mrs. Mary Mullen, in this
city. Deceased was born in County
Cork, Ireland, about seventy years
ago When a young lady she came to
America and to northern Michigan
where she married and In which state
she lived for several years. For the
past ten or twelve years she has
made her home with her daughter in
this city. She leaves three daughters
to mourn her demise: Mrs. M. C
Murphy of Spokane. Wash., Mrs
Josie Murray of Omaha, and Mrs.
Mary Mullen of this city. Thefuneral
was held last Sunday morning from
St. Patrick’s church, interment being
in the Catholic cemetary.
At the progressive county conven
tion called for this city last Saturday
a sufficient nnmber of voters to organ
ize the new party in this county were
not present and the meeting was ad
journed to meet at Atkinson next
Saturday. According to law a county
convention called for the purpose of
organizing a new party must be at
tended by 100 voters of the county
who must certify to the fact that they
will support the nominees of tbe new
party. At the meeting called for this
city last Saturday there were about
thirty voters present. H. A. Allen,
who has been named by the state pro
gressive committee as temporary
chairman for this county, says that
there will be no trouble in securing
the required number of voters at the
meeting in Atkinson next Saturday.
The slim attendance at the meeting
In this city last Saturday can be ac
counted for from the fact that there
are many republicans throughout the
county who intend to support Roose
velt for president but who do not be
lieve in a third party and who believe
that the republican county,senatorial,
congressional and state tickets are
thoroughly progressive and they in
tend to support the ticket at the
election.
Claims to Cure Horses.
Fremont Tribune: Being deluged
with letters and telephone Inquiries
from owners of plague-stricken horses,
Mrs. A. N. Nelson, residing east of
Fremont, whose singular success In
treating the disease has been men
tioned in the columns of the Tribune,
appeared at the Tribune office this
morning with an appeal that her pre
scription be made public.
"I can not answer so many letters
and my telephone is ringing all the
time," said Mrs. Nelson. "I hardly
know what to do.”
Mrs. Nelson claims that up to today
she has cured no less than half a
dozen horses by administering the
treatment and that she has furnished
her prescription free to no less than
fifty persons. The main features of
her treatment are abundant use of
laxatives and the vigorous rubbing of
the afflicted animals with a mixture
or turpentine and lard as a means of
keeping the biuoa in circulation, in
other respeots, she urges precaution
ary measures similar to those offered
by the veterinarians. Horses should *
be taken off the pasture and treated
with laxatives as a preventative, with
an abundance of pure water. Cures
can be affected Mrs. Nelson says, only
when treatment Is commenced while
the animal Is still able to stand on Its
feet. When paralysis has rendered its
limbs useless, it Is too late. The di
rections for treatment worked out by
Mrs. Nelson are as follows:
"Three tablespoons of aloes, six
tablespoons of epsom salts, half a
coffee cup of alcohol and three table
spoons of table salt dissolved in a
quart of water should be given the
animal. Half a gallon of buttermilk
in which four handsful of baking
soda and one handful of salt should
then be given and repeated In three
or four hours if neoessary. Glycerine
should be also Injected at repeated
intervals as a laxative.
"An external application of a mix
ture of two quarts of turpentine and
the same amount of lard Bhould next
be made, tubbing the application in
to every part of the body with much
force. This should be continued for
upward of an hour to enforae the cir
culation of the blood and blankets
must be placed about the horse when
this has been done to keep the horse
thoroughly warm. A little salt and
water should be given to the horse
before leaving It.
“Green cornstalks and light food
can be given to the horse during its
convalescence but no grains or heavy
food should be given. Throughout
the entire treatment and during the
recovery laxatives should be constant
ly administered to the animal to keep
its laternal organs In perfect con
dition."
