NAPER PIONEER HAS
INTERESTING STORY
(Norfolk News.)
Naper, Neb., Dec. 1. Nearly fifty
years of pioneering has not seriously
hurt Henry Tinkam, who lives in his
comfortable home in Naper, recalling
in memory the many thrilling expe
rienced with blizzards, Indians and
outlaws. Mr. Tinkman came to Yank
ton,, South Dakota, the spring after
General Custer wintered there. It was j
a hard winter and Custer had ordered
the men with him to turn the stock
loose, break camp and seek shelter in
Yankton. This was the winter of
1870.
With a friend William Friese they
settled near Niobrara, which was the
the Indian name for the stream, “run
ning water, and this stream was gen
erally called Running Water by the
older settlers. Together, he and his
partner worked at farming and rais
ing horses and cattle. Grasshoppers
ate the crops and they had to go to
Norfolk for flour.
The Sioux Indians and! the Poncas
were continually fighting and the
Sioux seemed to be the aggressors.
He says the Sioux would smoke the
pipe of peace in the fall and make
many presents of ponies. Buffalo
robes, etc; then the following sum
mer when the ponies were fat and
everything favorable the Sioux would
raid the Poncus and drive off many
ponies. x
The government and the missionar
ies gave many things to the Poncas
and they in turn traded all articles
of clothing to the settlers as they pre
ferred their own costunjes. Mr. Tin
kam thus secured a good Russian
overcoat from one Indian who liked
best his blanket.
When they were ready to build log
sheds for the stock they found the
logs were on the reservation side of
the river. The agent denied them the
privilege of taking any logs but they
thought some could be secured with
out permission after the ice began
running so the Indians could not cross
readily. Following this plan they
crossed the stream late in the fall and
had a nice bunch of logs cut when
they were startled by the noisy sal
utation of two Indians who were
standing just behind them before they
knew of their presence. The Indians
said, “Soldiers, Agency, Guard
House," and holding their hands up
together indicated wre would be hand
cuffed. Mr. Tinkam was greatly dis
turbed, thinking they would surely
have to pay a penalty but Fries was
an oldl soldier and coolly motioned to
the sun, indicated it was time to eat.
He motioned the Indians to follow
and gave them a good feed, after
which thej^ were easy to deal with.
Receiving some pork, flour and to
bacco, they agreed to let the two:
wh'tes have all the logs they needed.
One Indian traded Mr. Tinkam a
team of oxen for a team of ponies
then later stole the oxen After a
race he was able to recover the oxen.
The first time Kid Wade was ar
rested he was found to be riding Tin
kam’s favorite saddle horse.
RABBIT DISEASE.
A dispatch from Lincoln Nebraska
says indication that “tuleremia,” more
commonly known as “rabbit disease,"
has become more or less prevalent
among the wild rabbits in Nebraska
is seen in six cases that have recently i
been called to the attention of L. 0. j

partment of public welfare.
Although the disease,* when con
tracted by human beings, is not often
fatal, it does cause a serious Illness
and considerable suffering. The most
recent report received by Mr. Vose is
that from Dr. J. B. Williams of Bea
ver Crossing, who has been attending
Mrs. Jake Hubertas and her son,
Cloyd, for several weeks. Mr. Wil
liams said both of his patients are re
covering. They contracted the dis
ease three weeks ago after eating
wild rabbit.
BRICK BATS.
The Christmas season once again j
is with us one and all, from castle
grand to beggar’s den wc hear the
good will call. The windows of the
shops with toys are lit in splendor
grand, the the joy of all the girls and
boys throughout their native land.
Each day upon the street we pause
and watch with keen delight, the
youngsters greeting Santa Claus, j
who’s on his magic flight. We plan
a happy Christmas day with many
gladsome hours, with scores of toys
in colors gay, with candy, nuts and
flowers. We greet our friends upon
the street with "Merry Christmas
day;" the same to us they will repeat,
for all the world Is gay. The pres
ents and the joys aro fine, the Christ
mas spirit, too; the rood things upon
which we dine, the Yuletide greeting*.
I too. Yet in our joy let us take heed
of why this day of cheer; the Christ
! nas story let us read, as Christmas
•lay draws near. The story, wonder
, now as than, of Shepherds and the
Star: of "Peace on Earth, Good WU!
110 Men”—the story time can’t mar.—

COUNTRY SAUSAGE.
The following recipe for pork sau
sage is tak^en from Extension Circu
lar 228, Farm Slaughter of Hogs: 10
pounds sausage trimmings, throo
fourths lean, one-fourth fat; 6 table
spoons salt; 4 teaspoons white pop
per; 2 tablespoons ground sage. A
little red pepper, ground cinnamon,
ground cloves, or ground allspice may ;
be used also if the: o flavors are de
sired.
ihe seasoning should be sprink'e !
over the pieces of mea‘ and rubbed
into them before they arc ground. The
sausage may bo fried down or cased
in either small intestines of the hog
or in muslin bags. When bags are
used they should be made the desired
size, stuffed tightly with a spoon,!
sewed up, plunged into hut water to
melt the lard on the outside, the»i j
plunged into ice water V) sot the
grease and seal the sausage.
FACTS ABOUT NEBRASKA.
Nebraska was first claimed as Span
ish territory because it was supposed
to be a part of Florida which Desoto
discovered in 1613. La Salle later set
up a claim to it in 1682 along with all
of the land that was draiaed by the
Mississippi and its tributaries. Eng
land also claimed it as a part of North |
Virginia. Under the terms of treaty1
following the French and Indian war
all land west of the Mississippi was
ceded to the Spanish colonies. Na
poleon wrested it from Spanish in the
war of 1789 and later sold it in 1803
to the United States.
Nebraska will ship more than 100,- .
000 barrels of apples out of tho state
this year. Many of these will go to
the Atlantic and Pacific coast states
and will command the highest market
prices.
The first telegram was sent from
Nebraska August 29, I860, upon com
pletion of a line from St. Joseph to
Brownville.
