of the late Thomas Atkinson of Swan
last Tuesday. This sale was well ad
vertised ii< the newspapers of the
county and the property sold for $2,000
more than it was appraiseed for. One
of the largest crowds that has at
tended a public sale in the south
country for years was present and
bidding was very lively. If you con
template having a sale do not stint
your advertising; it will pay you too
fold, as has been demonstrated several
times.
The members of the Holt County
1 Game and Fish Protective Associa
tion held their second crow hunt last
Sunday. The boys say they had a
splendid hunt and succeeded in bag
ging seventy crows. Tuesday evening
the losing side tendered the winners a
banquet at the Western Hotel and it is
said to have been one of the swellest
events pulled off in the city for years.
The feed was exceptionally good; the
oratory, cigars and •“lemonade” of
proper strength and richness and
everyone had a delightful time. Some
of those who participated are anxious
to organize another crow hunt.
Antone Sivisend, one of the pioneer
and prosperous farmers of Willowdale
township, died at his home eighteen
miles northeast of this city last Tues
day night, after an illness of ten days
of pneumonia. Mr. Sivisend was in
O’Neill about four weeks ago and at
that time was enjoying the best of
health. He was seized with an at
tack of the grippe, which turned into
pneumonia. He was a splendid citizen
and a lovable man. He leaves a wife
and several children to mourn the
death of a kind and loving husband
and father and they have the
sympathy of a host of friends in their
hour of sorrow.
William Carson was in from his
ranch near Dorsey last Monday and
had this office turn out bills for a
public sale which he will hold on Tues
day, March 21st. Mr. Carson decided
to retire from farm work for a while
and decided to close out his personal
property at public sale. He was ac
companied to this city by his father
in-law, Edward Turner of DeWitt,
Neb., who has been visiting at the
Carson home and the home of John
Brady of Dorsey, another son-in-law,
for the past two months. Mr. Turner
visited this county twenty-seven years
ago and said he did not think it pos
sible for a country to change so much
in that length of time as this country
has. He now believes we have one of
the garden spots of the state. Mr.
Turner represented Saline county in
the state senate in the famous pop
session of 1901 and can tell many
amusing tales and incidents of that
session.
T. N. J. Hynes, who was one of the
original settlers of the colony that
founded O’Neill and who lived here for
many years, arrived in the city last
Monday morning for a few days visit
THE ARM OF A SETTEE
It was hollow. In cleaning
house mother discovered it.
She thought it was a good
place to keep her money. She
gathered together $150 in
bills and hid them in the hol
low of the arm of the old set
tee. The otheer day she went
to add some more bills to
them, when she found mice
had made a nest of her $150.
The Bank is a good place to
“hide” your money. It is

Mr. Hynes has been a resident of
Oregon for the past two and a half
years, where his daughter, Mrs. Gilg,
now resides. Last November he was
struck by a street car near Chehalis,
Washington, and was severely
injured, in fact having been given up
by four of the best physicians in that
section of the country. In his contact
with the street car he sustained a
fracture of the left arm, one of the
hip and of the left leg and at his ad
vanced age, 74 years, it was not
thought possible that he could recover.
But his hardy constitution withstood
the attack and he is now apparently
as well as ever. Mr. Hynes says that
the seven weeks he put in on his back
in the hospital was the hardest work
he ever done. Mr. Hynes will visit
relatives and friends here for a few
days and will then go to Valentine,
where he will spend a few months
visiting with his son and daughter.

performed the ceremony. Mrs. Leo
Hoffman played the wedding march.
The bride wore a violet silk suit,
with large black hat and corsage of
orchids and lillies of the valley.
Mrs. Clarence Parker, matron of

Gleanings.
Gus and Will Brentson each took a
load of hogs to town for Walter
Downing on the last day of February.
The best time to buy thermometers
is in the winter time when they are
low.
F. A. Hatch was helping Colmer
Simonson a few days last week.
Two weeks ago, ye scribe heard
meadow larks and prairie chickens.
They are strangely quiet now.
W. S. Roberts returned February 27
from his visit in Iowa. His voice
sounds as cheerful as ever.
Our thermometer registered four

It has been quite a number of years
since most farmers in the county quit
raising spring wheat. You ask any
one of them why he quit and he will
tell you it don’t pay. Now as a matter
of fact, wheat requires a certain
amount of lime in the soil, or it will
not do well. As wheat raising ex
hausts the lime that nature put there,
it stands to reason that the farmer
must supply his land that he wishes to
grow wheat on, with more lime, if he
wants to get a paying crop. Need I
say more?
Miss Ott held an examination of
high school candidates last Thursday
and Friday. The candidates were:
Pauline Roberts, Martha and Helen
Wiedtfeldt, Lloyd Whaley and Vivian
Wrede. I have not learned the result
of the examination yet.
I did say I wouldn’t, but I will try
my luck again in the weather fore
casting line. For the balance of
March the weather will be more or
less stormy, with plenty of high winds.
My calculations are based on the
phases of the moon for the month, and
should they prove correct, will give
the readers a forecast for April, after
the 5th of that month.
It is rumored that Await Spangler
is going to get him a car this spring.
We are glad to see him have one, as
he needs it as bad as any one, and has
surely earned it in good work faith
fully done.
Dug Robinson and family have
rented the Frost ranch and have
moved on the same.
Walter Downing is thinking some
of investing in either a car or motor
truck this spring. A motor truck
would surely pay him big, on account
of the distance he has to freight his

Ye scribe was out circulating among
his neighbors last week, and noticed
with some surprise, that no one whom
we talked with on the subject, had
noticed the notice of the county board
in last week’s Frontier, calling a
special election to be held in the
regular polling places in each precinct
of the county on the proposition of
bonding the county in the sum of
$100,000 to raise funds to replace
bridges on various streams in the
county which have been taken out by
high water, within the last two or
three years. The bridgesc are certainly
needed, and as that is the only way in
which they can be had, so it seems to
me that the duty of the tax payers
who wish for better crossing facilities
across the creek is clear.
The question of good raods is an
other thing closely related to good
bridges on streams, as no road is any
better than its worst spot.
In this respect, the county could
employ a county engineer at a reason
able figure, who would take charge of
all road work in the county and all
work done under his supervision should
be productive of the best results.
He could also cooperate with the
federal authorities, who are to begin
this year on a road running between
O’Neill and Chambers. The county
engineer has put the roads in tip top
condition in other counties where he
has been employed. Why not here ?
American Troops in Mexico.
Several thousand American troops,
under the leadership of General
Pershing have entered Mexico and
will attempt to capture Villa, either
dead or alive and break up the band
of brigands that he is surrounded
with. The attack on Columbus, New
Mexico, has ended the policy of
“peaceful watching.”
According to advices from Wash
ington all the regular soldiers, except
8,000 men, will go into Mexico and
take up the chase of the bandits.
