Jordan and Horst and the sports that
had their money on the race were
sorry that the accident prevented them
from finding out which was the
fastest car.
Former County Treasurer J. P.
Mullen, who has retired from active
life on the farm and is now living in
Emmet, was one of the most ardent
fans on the grounds. He rejoiced in
Emmet’s victories and felt sorrowful
when things looked as if the breaks
were going against them.
Cy Forsythe, who played center
field for Emmet during the Fair, is
a member of the Omaha Western
League team and third best batter in
the Western League. He secured but
one hit in the four games here, so it
is evident there was a classy article of
pitching put up against the Emmet
boys in the four games.
Three happier men than William
Cuddy, Arthur Wilson and Guy Cole,
manager, captain and general booster
for the Emmet base ball team, could
not be found in the county last Friday
night. But the boys deserved to feel
good. They spent their good money to
get a ball team together to go after
the coin and they succeeded.
Some of the best racing seen on the
O’Neill track in years was pulled off
Thursday and Friday. One race
Thursday and one Friday it took five
heats to decide the winner, and the
drivers were driving all the time. It
was near six o’clock when the last heat
was pulled off and there were very
many spectators on the ground to wit- 1
ness it.
George Gaughenbaugh is feeling
extra good since the fair. The first
prize on bread was won by Mrs. Lewis
Thomas and the bread was made with
“Our Own” flour manufactured by the ;
O’Neill Roller MillB. The bread that
won second prize was made from •
Neligh flour. This speaks well for the
quality of flour turned out by the local *
mills and George has reason to feel ;
good.
Howard Miller of Battle Creek was
one of the interested spectators at the (
games Friday and Saturday. When (
business cares becomes depressing (
Howard takes his Battle Creek ball (
team on the road and trims up the (
neighboring towns. He is a good
judge of ball players and said that ,
Gene Leahy looked about as good as '
any of the players he had seen in (
action.
Several of the Emmet boys won con' !
siderable money backing their base :
ball team. They deserved it. They had ’
the ball team and were not afraid to 1
put up their money to back them.
Young Horst of Elgin, whose auto
mobile upset in the race at the Fair 1
last Friday, says that he is through '
with the racing game. He figures that i

he was very fortunate in escaping
without injuries and will tempt fate
no more.
The real excitement of Friday was
given to the people in the automobile
race. Horst tried to pass Joel Parker
on a turn. The track is narrow and
very rough on the outside and trying
to pass Horst was forced onto the
rough ground and lost control of his
car. It crashed through the fence,
turned over two and a half times and
stopped bottom side up. The occu
pants of the car were severely bruised
and shaken up but their injuries are
not serious. The car was badly dam
aged. Near the fence a driving team
belonging to an O’Neill man was
hitched. When the horse saw the
yellow car coming through the air it
evidently concluded its time had come
and promptly turned over and died.
People who own horses with heart
trouble should keep them away from
automobile races.
Weekly Weather Forecast.
For the week beginning Wednesday,
September 29: Generally fair and
moderately cool weather will prevail

treme Upper Mississippi Valley.

Neligh Semi-Weekly News: R. S.
Tweed living fourteen miles west of
Orchard in Holt county, was here this
week consulting County Attorney
Jackson in reference to the marriage
of his fifteen-year-old daughter who
was married here last week by County
Judge Ingram to John B. Kleintobe.
The parent was very much incensed
over the event and sought to prosecute
Kleintobe on the charge of kidnapping
and said the girl was overtaken whilu
on her way to school by Kleintobe in
an auto and was induced to accompany
him to Neilgh to be married. After
hearing all the particulars Attorney
Jackson informed Tweed that if a
crime had been committed it was on
Holt county soil and the action should
be brought there. He was much in
doubt as to whether a crime had been
committed as the girl was willing to
go and when asked by the county
judge if there were any objections to
the marriage, both replied that there
were not. The parents of the girl are
very much incensed over the occur
ence and the father went to O’Neill to
see what could be done in Holt county
After the ceremony had been per
formed September 15th, the couple
went to Norfolk and are now living at
Orchard.

On Tuesday morning, September 21,
1915, the 13th annual meeting of the
Rebekah lodges of District No. 29 was
convened in the I. 0. O. F. hall at Til
den, Nebraska. After the opening ex
ercises, the visitors were welcomed by
Burnett lodge in a very cordial and ap
propriate address given by Mrs.
Maude Davis. The response was made
by Miss Olney of Atkinson. The pre
siding officers were: Mrs. Clara B.
Miles, O’Neill, president; Mrs. Carrie
Harlow, Meadow Grove,vice-president;
Mrs. Minnie Downey, O’Neill, secre
tary; and Mrs. Josie Chittenden,
Madison, warden. The treasurer,
Ethel Palme of Norfolk, was unable to
be present because of illness.
After the reading of the minutes of
the last meeting, held at Madison, Sep
tember 22, 1914, and the reading and
disposition of communications, the
committee on resolutions, and the
auditing committee were appointed.
The officers elected for the coming
year are: Mrs. Carrie Harlow.
Meadow Grove, president; Mrs. Josie
Chittenden, Madison, vice-president;
May Dowe, Meadow Grove, secretary;
Mrs. Mary Kingery, Tilden, warden;
Mrs. Alys Sweet, Oakdale, treasurer.
The next annual meeting was invited
to be held at Atkinson, and the in
vitation was accepted.
The afternoon session opened at one
o’clock. In the reports from the lodges
were some very encouraging ones, and
all reports gave evidence of interest
“IS MY BANK

and growth. Of the eleven lodges in
the district all but two were represent
ed. In the secret work contest the
prize banner was won by O’Neill. The
initiatory work was exemplified by s»
staff chosen from the various lodges
present. The memorial service, con
ducted by Burnett lodge, was rendered
in a way that made it especiallj
beautiful and impressive.
The school of instruction took up a
considerable portion of the afternoon
and was conducted by Past President
Elsie Buchta, and was enjoyed by all
who heard her. Her very presence and
personality did much to make the
meeting a success in every way.
Musical numbers were given by Mrs.
C. B. Scott of O'Neill and Miss Vina
Lytle of Tilden. Everyone enjoyed
them.
O’Neill installed the new officers in a
very efficient manner. Several sisters
who were ill, some of them in the hos
pital at Tilden, were remembered with
flowers, also the treasurer of the dis
trict, Ethel Palme, Norfolk, whose ill
ness prevented her coming* to the
meeting. The hall was beautifully
decorated with autumn flowers.
After a supper, tendered the visit- ;
ing members by the ladies of Burnett
lodge, the visitors departed, declaring
the meeting enjoyable and successful 1
in every way, and hoping that all
might meet again at Atkinson in 1916.

To the Public.
“I feel that I owe the manufacturers
of Chamberlain’s Colic, Cholera and
Diarrhoea Remedy a word of grati
tude,” writes Mrs. T. N. Witherall,
Gowanda, N. Y. “When I began tak
ing this medicine I was in great pain
and feeling terribly sick, due to an ^
attack of summer complaint. After
taking a dose of it I had not long to
wait for relief as it benefited me al
most immediatedly.” Obtainable

Rev. G. W. Bruce has been assigned 1
to O’Neill for the ensuing year, the
appointment having been made by the 1
superintendent at Omaha the forepart
of the week. This will be pleasing
news to the members of the Methodist
church and to the many friends of Rev. 1
and Mrs. Bruce in the city. Rev. Bruce

has ever been stationed here.

Billiousness and Constipation.
It is certainly surprising that any *
woman will endure the miserable (
feelings caused by billiousness and
constipation, when relief is so easily
had and at so little expense. Mrs.
Chas. Peck, Gates, N. Y., writes;
“About a year ago I used two bottles
of Chamberlain’s Tablets and they
cured me of billiousness and consti
pation.” Obtainable everywherp. ,
