District court convened in regular session in this city last Monday with Judge Dickson upon the bench and Reporter Scott occupying the reporter’s chair. The first case on the docket and which was taken up Monday was the damage case of Primitivo Melindes against M. A. Camery. The case grew out of the laying of sewerage in Atkinson last summer. Camery was the contractor who put in the sewerage and Melindes was in his em ploy laying sewer pipe. On the fore noon of July 6 while Melende was laying pipe in a trench about twelve feet deep, another of the workmen removed a jack that was used to hold braces against the bank to prevent a cave in, and the ditch caved in bury ing Melendes under several feet of dirt. When dug out he was un conscious and, as the testimony proved was unable to work for some time. Last fall he brought suit against Camery for $15,000 for the injuries received. When the plaintiff had rested their side of the case the court, on motion of the defendant in structed the jury to bring in a verdict for the defendant, on the ground that the injury was wholly caused by the negligence of a fellow servant. Ed. J. Waters of Omaha, of the firm of Waters & Hanley, and E. H. Whelan, appeared for the plaintiff; while J. J. Harrington and Mr. Woodrough, of the firm of Gurley, Woodrow & Fitch, appeared for the defendant. The next case taken up was the case of the State of Nebraska vs. John Latzel and Edward Wainscott. This case was called Wednesday morning about 11 o’clock, at the con clusion of the damage case, and is now on trial. Latzel and Wainright were arrested last fall upon complaint of Earl Feezer, who alleged that on or about November 11, 1914, they did take and steal four calves to the value Everybody Come to the T'U-l’sr Grxd- o,:cLd_ 3rd $2,000.00 IN PRIZES | Big Carnival Company Up Town Dancing Each Evening Purses $300 Each ’ 2:30 trot.$300. 2:30 trot.$300. 2:15 pace. 300. 2:19 pace. 300. 2:25 pace. 300.

Co.—Week after week for some time we have been expecting a light cattle run, but they still seem to come as though the woods were full of them, and with a liberal run again at the beginning of this week the market has suffered an other set back of 10 to 16e. Some of the commoner and grassy are hard to move at an even greater decline than above quoted. Good stockers and feed ers are holding firm with both offer ings and demand limited. Common kinds are lower. We quote: Good to choice cornfed beeves $8.26 to $9, common kinds down to $7.25. Good to choice cows and heifers $0.75 to $7.75, fair to good $5.75 to $6.70, canners and cutters $4 to $5.70. Veal calves $8 to $10.50. Bulls, stags, etc., $6 to $7.25. Good to choice feeders $7.50 to $8, common grades down to $6.25. Stock cows and heifers $5.60 to $7. Stock calves $6 to $8. Hog prices are on the toboggan again and are the lowest for some time. Bulk $7 to $7.15, top $7.25. Sheep and lambs have suffered a decline of 50c to $1.00, but are still high. WAR’S DEMAND ON INDUSTRY Makes Tremendous Demand On Pro ducing Capacity of a Nation. From the American Machinist: A French engineer reports that he has seen car-load after car-load of rifles going back from the firing-front in France for repairs, and has said that it is estimated that every soldier ac tively engaged will require ten rifles a year. Of course, many of those re turned are repaired and sent back into service. Records from the maneuvers of some of our State militia show a loss of 10 per cent, of the rifles issued during a ten or twelve days’ encamp ment. If the loss is as great as this in a few days training, what must it be in weeks of active fighting ? Turning to shells for the larger guns it is said that the French fired one hundred and fifty thousand 75-milli meter shells in the Battle of the Marne. Their 75-millimeter guns can shoot sixteen shells per minute, and there are guns which have records of having shot 2,000 shells in a single day. At the first of this year, the French Gov etpment was just completing its equip ment to produce 200,000 explosive shells per day. A plant now under construction in Paris is to have a ca pacity of fifteen thousand 75-milli meter shrapnel-shells per day. At the rate mentioned, eight of the French 75-millimeter guns could fire all the shells produced by a factory employ ing say 4,000 to 5,000 men. These figures apply solely to ammu nition and do not hint at the enormous supplies of other materials that an army needs. When measured in labor-hours, these figures are astounding and be yond our mental realization. But they do give us a hint as to the tremendous strain upon the manufacturing equip ment of the countries now producing war-material. They also show the sense behind the action of the last United States Congress authorizing the development by the War Depart ment of a corps of civilian engineers, a part of whose duties will be the pro duction of ammunition and war-ma terial, if this country ever faces war.

Here is an O’Neill story that has stood the test of time. It is a story with a point which will come straight home to many of us. H. J. Zimmerman,merchant,O’Neill, says: “My back ached constantly. I had to pass the kidney secretions too often and the passages were attended by a scalding sensation. Dizzy spells and pains in my head also caused me much misery. The first box of Doan’s Kidney Pills, procured at Pixley & Handley’s Drug Store, helped me and four boxes rid me of kidney com plaint.” OVER TWO YEARS LATER Mr. Zimmerman said: “Doan’s Kidney Pills have merited all the praise I have given them. My kindey’s haven’t bothered me since I used them.” Price 50c, at all dealers. Don’t simply ask for a kidney remedy—get Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that Mr. Zimmerman has twice recom mended.
