Soldier’s Mother Victimized.
While Will Dishner and sister, of
Columbus, were the guests of their
uncle, F. J. Dishner, in O’Neill last
week, Dewey Hatcher, an ex-soldier,
formerly residing at Columbus, by im
personating young Dishner obtained
$25 by wire from the latter’s mother
at Columbus. Young Dishner, who is
in the navy, is home on a thirty day
furlough and after a visit with the
home folks, came to O’Neill with his
sister. A few hours after they had
left Columbus, Mrs. J. Dishner, his
mother, received a telegram from
Omaha, to which her son’s name was
signed, stating that he was in Omaha
without funds and requesting her to
wire him $25. The telegram stated
that he would be home Friday. The
mother, thinking that her son and
daughter had changed their minds
about the O’Neill visit promptly
wired the money. Later she called up
Mr. Dishner here to inform him that
the couple had gone to Omaha. The
call was received while young Dishner
was in Mr. Dishner’s office and he
hastened to inform Jus mother that he
had not been in Omaha and had not
wired for money.
Shortly after conversing with her
son over the telephone another tele
gram from Omaha, came, signed with
her son’s name, stating that the $25
just sent had been stolen from him and
asking for $25 more. Mrs. Dishner
at once hastened to the telegraph of
fice and informed the company of
what was going on, requesting that
the Omaha person be taken in custody
when he again called at the tele
graph office. While she was convers
ing with the telegraph officials, M. C.
Calto, of Columbus, came into the
office to send $25 to his son in re
sponse to a telegram purporting to
be from him in Omaha. Mr. Calto be
came suspicious and requested that
whoever called for his money also be
taken into custody and investigated.
Young Hatcher, the sender of all
three appeals for funds, was arrested
when he called at the Omaha tele
graph office and taken before United
States Commissioner Neeley, to whom
he confessed. His case was continued
until this week and he. was released
on a $1,000 bond. Ha'tcher enlisted
with the old Sixth Nebraska regiment
and was sent to Deming, New Mexico,
early in the war. After six months
service he was discharged because of
tuberculosis. He arrived in Omaha
without funds or friends and there in
vented the scheme of raising money
which resulted so disastrous to him.

NOTHING ELSE LIKE IT
IN O’NEILI
There has never been anything ir
O’Neill with the INSTANT action oi
simple buckthorn bark, glycerine, etc.
as mixed in Adler-i-ka. ONE
SPOONFUL flushes the ENTIRE
bowel tract so completely it relieves
ANY CASE sour stomach, gas or con
stipation and prevents appendicitis
ThelNSTANT, pleasant action of Ad
ler-i-ka surprises both doctors and pa
tients. Gilligan & Stout, Druggists. 1
Don't Blame The Men.
Communicated: Some of our rail
road men take exceptions to a recent
remark in the Independent, which
would indicate that they were slack in
their duties and causing delay to de
livering of shipments. In the case
referred to the printed forms were
billed out of Sioux City Thursday,
December 19th and reached O’Neill
on schedule time.
Everyone interested in the handling
of important shipments should be
come acquainted with the present
“Sailing day” plan as handled under
Government arrangement and when
such service is not speedy enough it
might be well to take advantage of
the express facilities rather than
blame the railroad employees.
NOTICE TO HUNTERS.
Some careless hunter shot a year
ling calf for tne some time during the
forenoon of December 31. The next
man or boy that goes along the high
way by my farm with a gun or a dog
wants to have his hunting license in
his hand and refrain from shooting on
either side of the road, or crossing any
part of my land. I will prosecute the
iirst man or boy found on my land
with a gun. Take no chances, for you
will be given the limit if caught tres
passing on mv lands.

AN O’NEILL MAN’S EXPERIENCE.
Can you doubt the evidence of this
O’Neill Citizen?
You can verify O’Neill endorse
ment.
Read this:
J. H. Davison, prop., harness and
shoe shop, main street, says: “Some
time ago I was suffering from kidney
disorder. My back was lame and sore
and there was a steady, heavy pain
over my kidneys. When at my work,
I could hardly straighten up, because
such sharp pains caught me in my
back. My kidneys acted too often and
the secretion were unnatural. I know
what was causing the trouble and .
hadn’t used Doan’s Kidney Pills long
before I was relieved of all these ail
ments.”
Price 00c, at all dealers. Don’t
simply ask for a kidney remedy—get
Doan’s Kidney Pills—the same that
Mr. Davison had. Foster-Milburn
