TWO SEVERE HAIL STORMS
VISITS HOL¥ COUNTY
A severe hail storm visited Holt
county Monday evening shortly after
six o’clock almost totally destroying
everything in its path. The storm
seemed to have started near Fairfax,
South Dakota, and traveled in a south
erly direction entering Holt county
south of Bristow and continued toward
O’Neill. North of this city the storm
seemed to have divided, part going
east and part west around the town;
some hail fell in O’Neill but no dam
* age is reported. The storm was about
two miles wide.
One and one-quarter inches of rain
fell in O’Neill in twenty minutes.
The storm assumed cyclonic pro
portions in various parts of the
county; out buildings were blown
away, trees uprooted and windmills de
stroyed following the hail and flood.
At the Mrs. P. J. Lansworth farm the
large partically new barn was torn to
Sieces and most of the out buildings
estroyed. This seemed to be the apex
of the storm although at various inter
vals considrable evidence of a cyclone
was manifest. At the old James Con
nolly place south of O’Neill, the scene
of a cyclone a few. years ago, large
trees were uprooted but no damage to
buildings.
The storm that visited Star occur
red some time later than the one that
did the damage north of O’Neill.
-
Around Star and the northeast part ol
the county the damage by hail, flood
and heavy wind seemed to have been
much more severe than the one farther
west.
In the vicinity of Star old residents
claim that the rain that fell was the
heaviest that the country has evei
seen, causing almost complete loss'
The telephone wires are down and the
roads in most places are still impas
sible on account of their washed con
dition.
Many farmers lost their chickens
and small pigs during the downpour.
In the northern part of the county
much damage was done to the bridges,
mosT of them being washed away or
rendered impassible by the heavy rain
that fell.

Mr. and Mrs. Manford Ross, of this
city, died in a hospital in Norfolk thifi

veloped and the young man was taken
to the hospital in an auto that evening,
where he was given syrum treatment,
but without success.

YOUR CAPITAL
TF YOU are drawing a thousand dol
A lars a year you are getting interest
on $25,000. Twenty-five thousand dol
lars therefore is your capital.
Every dollar that you add to your
yearly income means that your capital
is increased by $25.
Double your salary and you double
your capital. Quadruple your $1,000
n year and you can consider yourself
worth $100,000, which is a tidy for
tune.
The capital that you carry under
your hat, you do not need to risk in
speculation. It is immunp from bank
burglars and stock jugglers. It is
yours as long as you keep your health
and retain your earning capacity.
Always consider your brains as
your capital. Take the same cure of
them that the banket- takes of his
funds and those entrusted to him.
Bad habits, sloth, shiftlessness, im
pair your capital. So does ill health.
Avoid all of-tnem if you can.
Keep your body in good physical
condition, for If It Is not, your brain
will not be able to earn the interest
that it ought to.
liet rid or bad habits. All of them
out your capital down.
Add to your capital as regularly as
you can. Add not only to your earn
ing power, but to the reserve of
money that all men ought to estab
lish as soon as possible.
When the capital that Is under your
hat and the capital that you have in
vested- in good securities are both
working for you, you will be beyond
the reach of want and on your way to
prosperity and independence.
Hut remember that both kinds of
capital must be cured for and safe
guarded, or they will shrink instead of
expand,
Make them grow, while the growing
Is good. Capital of one kind or an
other is the only insurance against
the miseries of poverty and old age.

Mr. and Mrs. James ..Harty ..Married
Fifty Years.
—
The following article appeared in
the Shullsburg, Wisconsin, Pick and

of the anniversary of Mr. and Mrs.i
Harty, parents of P. B. and W. H., of
this city. Mr. and Mrs. Harty made
their home in O’Neill a number of
years ago and will be remembered by
many of the older residents.
On June 23, 1873, fifty years ago
last ^Saturday., at 7:30 o’clock a. m.
James Harty and Margaret London
were united in the holy bonds of mat
rimony at St. Matthew’s church in this
city, the late Father James Kinsella
officiating; and on Saturday last, pre
cisely fifty years later and at the same
hour, they received holy communion
and started on the second half century
of happy married life.
This was the hrst golden wedding
anniversary ever celebrated on what
is known to many as “Badger Hill,”
and all who were present will long re
member June 23, 1923.
""Those who attended the anniversary
were the Rev. Fathers Croke and Cun
ningham, Mrs. Edw. Field and
daughter, John Mahoney and daughter
Mrs. Cys Carey, of Beloit, and mem
bers of both families. Mrs. Carey, who
was Miss Cys Lyons before her mar
riage, was bridesmaid at the wedding
fifty years ago.
The guests enjoyed interesting talks
by Fathers Croke and Cunningham at
the dinner table, who gave their bless
ing and spoke with great respect and
praise of Mr. and Mrs. Harty and
their large family of eleven children,
the following of whom were present:
Mrs. Dolly Moon, Galena, 111.; Gus, of
Dubuque; Jack and Tom, of Milwau
kee; Ben, of O’Neill, Neb.; Mrs. James
Morrissey, Mrs. Foster Roberts and
George of this city. Mike and Mrs.
Patrick London, of Colome, S. D., and
Patrick, of O’Neill, Neb., were unable
to be present.
A number of Chinese lanterns and
the wonderful light of the moon turned
the lawn into a fairy picpic ground,
and the evening was spent in singing
and dancing, interspersed with /many
stores of the olde'n and present days.
At the usual hour of 10:00 p. m. Mr.
and Mrs.. Harty were reminded of their
wedding fifty years ago by an old time
charivari, in which all of the guests
took part; and thus ended a perfect
day. All present had a fine time, and
departed for their homes wishing Mr.
and Mrs. Harty many more years of
happy married life, in which wish the
Pick and Gad and their host of friends
join.
