Holt, having been a resident of that
section for twenty-four years. The
splendid vote he received at the
primaries is evidence of the esteem he
is held in by his acquaintances. He is
well qualified for the position to which
he aspires and will no doubt be
eleceted by a splendid majority.

The residence of William Fallon, one
of the most imposing in the northern
part of the city, was seriously
damaged by fire last Friday night en
tailing a loss to Mr. Fallon of about
$2,000. The fire was discovered about
12:30 in the attic and by the time the
fire department arrived upon the scene
had gained such headway that it was
thought for a time that the building
could not be saved but prompt action
by the department saved the building,
but the loss to the contents and build,
ing is estimated by Mr. Fallon at
about $2,000. He had insurance of
$700 on his furniture and $1,500 on the
building.
r rea ironic, one 01 tne oia time
residents of eastern Holt and also one
of its most successful farmers and
stockman, was an O’Neill visitor last
Friday and favored this office with a
call, extending his subscription to this
household necessity. Fred is a sub
stantial citizen and an ardent re
publican. Time was when the editor
and Fred could not agree on party
policies but today we are together and
believe that with Justice Hughes as
the standard bearer of the republican
party that there will be nothing to the
election this fall.
The baseball fans in the Knights of
Columbus have organized a base ball
team and expect to put O’Neill on the
map in a base ball way the coming
summer. Pat Harty has been selected
as manager and he says that they are
determined to clean everything in a
base ball way in this section of the
state this summer. The local Knights
have splendid material and we expect
they will put up such a classy article
of ball this summer that Pa Rourke
will be sending his scouts here to try
and nab some of the stars of the team
for his Western League bunch. B. H.
Watson is the star twirler of the local
Knights team and the boys say that
Watson has class as well as ex
perience, as he performed upon the
mound for several of the star teams of
South Dakota, prior to his removal to
this city. On the receiving end Dr.
Hombach has won a permanent s
position. The Doctor, prior to re- 1
reiving his degree in medicine, was a f
state leaguer and won a splendid 1
reputation as a ball player, being i
classed as one of the best catchers in ;
the Nebraska loop, which was noted <

ighteen-year-old kid. A quarter of a
entury ago Tim was one of the best

tate and his services were in great

hough he has advanced in years he

IcBride, Thomas Brennan, Ralph

leaguer, Tom Nolan. This team has
the material to put up a splendid article
of ball and the old man is of the
opinion that they will put O’Neill
upon the base ball map this summer.
Their first game will be played upon
the local diamond next Sunday after
noon with Newport and it promises to
be a good game. Come out and help
the boys along.
Lime For Preserving Eggs.
Egr laid during April and May are
of better quality for preserving than
are those laid later in the summer.
One pound of air-slacked lime added
to cot ted, boiled water is equally as
good a preservative for eggs as water
glass. Only clean, fresh eggs with
sound shells should be “put down.”
the eggs in as gathered. Some lime
settles to the bottom of the jar but no
harm. Two or three inches of the
solution should cover the eggs to allow
for evaporation. Keep in a cool place,
preferably in a cellar. Eggs preserved
by this method may be safely kept for
eight months. When ready for use, ;
remove only the eggs that are nec
essary.

Lame Back.
Lame back is usually due to rheu
matism of the muscles of the back.
Hard working people are most likely
to suffer from it. Relief may be had
by massaging the back with Cham- ■
berlain’s Liniment two or three times
a day. Try it. Obtainable every
where.
