SECRETS OF THE WENDELS
HELD BY O’NEILL LADIES
The Denver Post of a recent issue
carried the pictures of Mrs. Lewis
Ward and Miss Catherine Hynes
connected with a story of the famous
Wendel fortune of 100 million dol
lars. The Post article says:
“Secrets of the Wendels are kept
inviolate by Miss Catherine Hynes
(left) and Mrs. Lewis Ward, of
O’Neill, Neb., wtoo, although they
were intimate with the household of
the Wendel family of New York, re
fuse to reveal domestic glimpses of
millionaire home life. Miss Hynes
was employed thirty years by the
Wendels, who left a 100-million dol
lar fortune.”

DR. PRITCHARD, BONESTEEL,
INJURED IN AUTO ACCIDENT
Dr. Pritchard, of Bonesteel, South
Dakota, was quite seriously injured
and Mrs. Pritchard suffered sprains
and bruises when their sedan was
wrecked by a trailer of an approach
ing car that became loosened from
the on-coming car and crashed into
his car; Dr. and Mrs. Pritchard were
brought to O’Neill where they were
given first aid and accompanied to
Spencer, Nebraska, by Dr. Brown.
They were taken to Spencer in the
Biglin ambulance.
We were unable to learn to whom
the trailer belonged that crashed
into the Pritchard car.
ALVIN MILLAGE PLEADS
GUILTY TO HOG THEFT
Alvin Millage, quite well known to
people in this county, was arrested
with Mrs. Millage and a partner, in
Sioux City, a short time ago on a
charge ot' stealing a new truck in
Sioux City and then stealing eighteen
hogs of the American Serum Co., of
Sioux City; the hogs were taken to
Omaha and sold in the name of Fred
Allen; the fellow who sold the hogs
claimed that the truck carried a Holt
county license plate of a number that
was registered to a party at Stuart,
Nebraska, which was learned when i
an investigation was made by a dep
uty sheriff and a state officer who
came here from Sioux City to check
up on the sale of the hogs.
The fact that some part of the en
gine of the truck burned out, appar
ently was the cause of capturing Mil
lage and his pal; it seems that Mil
lage and his wife pulled the truck
away from the stock yards with a
Buick car; parties obtained a good;
description of both of them and when
the theft was discovered the descrip
tion was furnished the state men;
state men came to Holt county and
gave Deputy Sheriff Bergstrom this
description; Deputy Bergstrom told
them that Mr. and Mrs. Millage were
perhaps the parties they were look
ing for; Millage and a fellow by the
name of James Thomas were taken
into custody and Millage and his pal,
who might have been Thomas, con
fessed. Millage was given a sentence
of five years in the state peniten
tiary at Anamosa, Iowa, to which
place he will be taken as soon as he
serves a ninety day sentence in the
Woodbury county, Iowa jail, on a li
quor charge. His pal was returned
to the state penitentiary at Jefferson
City, Missouri, from which place he
had escaped.
NEW DANCE PAVILION AT
HIGHWAY INTERSECTION
Tom Jordan, of New York City, a
brother of R. L. Jordan of this city,
has acquired a two and one-half acre
tract of ground southwest of the in
tersection of Highways Nos. 20 and
8, two miles northwest of O’Neill,
where he has started the erection of
a dance pavilion which will be 81
feet in diameter; it will be built cir
cular and when completed will be the
largest in this part of the state. The
floors will be of solid maple and will
contain approximately 46,000 feet of
lumber.
Mr. Jordan tells us that he expects
to have the building complete and
ready to open with Red Wilson’s band
some time during the latter part of
June.
Arrangements are being made to
have a deputy sheriff on the grounds
at all times when dances are in prog
ress and every effort will be made to
preserve law and order.
The grounds will be electric light
ed with a special wire from the sub
station. There will be a flood light'
covering the entire plot so that park
ing can be easily made on the prem
ises.
A building of this kind adjacent to
O’Neill will be quite an asset to the
community and will be available for
the handling of large crowds. Mr.
Jordan should receive the congratu
lation of the people of O’Neill for
erecting such a building here.
The Seth Noble Lumber yard have
the contract for the erection of the
building.
The grounds will be landscaped and
beautified as quickly as possible
after the completion of the pavilion.
