DuIJoies of New York, arrived here Friday to look after his property interests in Weeping Water, Nebraska City and Union. It has been three years since Mr. DuBoies paid his last visit to Nebraska and he says he notices many favorable changes in the growth of our city. He went to Ne hawka to spend Snnday with his old friend, Lawson Sheldon. Nehawka From the IJeglsteY. Carl Stone is breaking a colt these days, and incidently getting back his old time muscle Uncle Will Chapman says he saw the lirst potato bug the other day: It was injuring the way to a potato patch. Uncle Will set his heel on it and it lost all intejest in potato patches. A lot of Charlie Manning's cattle got on the clover the other day and were badly bleated from eating the green clover. One died, but he thinks the others will pull through. A dead bone was removed from the foot of Tommie, son of M. P. Whccl don, Monday. Tommie stepped on a nail last July, and has had trouble ever since. lie stood the operation nicely, and will probably have a good foot. Miss Edith Johnson closed her school in the Sturm district last Friday with a nice program and picnic dinner. We understand she is engaged to teach there again the coming year, which certainly speaks well for her teaching qualities. Clias. Harming and II. G. Stongwere in Greenwood, Friday to meet the county committee of Woodmen to arrange for the county annual log roll ing. Later: The next annual log rolling was located at (Jreenwood. Mrs. Sigler was heating some water in a wash boiler the other day, when there was an explosion that shook the house.

Lowther was called to Weeping Water last Friday by the serious Illness of her sister.

He also expects to scalp a few Indians I m-fore he returns. Uncle (leorge W. (t rimes, who has leen confined to the house a great deal of the time for the past year, was able to come to town last Saturday. II is many friends were much pleased to see him out again, and hope he may fully recover. Earl Pickett's dray team took a sudden notion to try their speed last Saturday morning, and made a good start for the North Pole, but a half mlie alnjve town Amos McNamee's red shirt waist frightened them toastand still. No damage was done, and Amos didn't lose one drop of blood in being a hero. The deal was consummated Wedr nesday evening whereby the yards and stock of Edwards & Bradford Lumber company in this village passed into the hands of new owners, the pur chasers ln'ing J. A. Nicholson and W. B. Banning. The change will take place next Monday morning, when the new linn will take full control as owners. The transfer includes every thing connected with the lumber business here, also the residence pro perty occupied by Mr. Nicholson. The IH'opIe of Union and vicinity will be pleased by the change, for the reason that it puts this line of business in the hands of men who are interested in the advancement of the town, men who are known to le energetic and entitled to the confidence and patron age of those who have had social and business relations with them hereto fore. Eagle From the lieaeon. Bom to Mr. and Mrs. Fred Schroed er, Saturday, a girl. Mrs. (i. W. Venner who has been very sick the past two weeks is much better. A few days ago while working in the field Will Burdick plowed out an old Indian hammer. A baby boy arrived Saturday night and will make his future home with his parents, Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Knap- ton. ("ran j? pa Umland's eyes are much better now than they have been for some time, he being able to walk up town alone. Mr. and Mrs. II. II. Bronson and son departed Saturday morning for Mis souri, where they will spend a month with friends and relatives. Mrs. Trunkenbolz who has been very sick the past four or live weeks is now able to be up a part of the time. Mrs. James Ferguson of Kingfisher, Oklahoma, departed for her home Monday after an extended visit with friends and relatives near Eagle. Mr. and Mrs. C. Wetenkamp, jr., are the proud parents of aibaby girl which came to their house last Saturday, so says Dr. Thomas. Mr. J. J. Blodgettcame home Satur day and packed up their household goods and on Monday with his family, left for Calhoun, Neb., where they will make their future home. The best wishes of their many friends go with them. Greenwood From the News. Mrs. Cheuvront, who has been at Lincoln having an operation performed on her eyes, returned home last night. Promoters of the electric railway, that is to be laid through here this fall some time, were in town on business Monday. Mrs. McLease, daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Coleman, came in last night from Alliance' to spend a few days with her parents. J. L. Tolk, mail clerk between Omaha and Denver on the B. & M. was in town Tuesday visiting with his his sister and friends. While in town Mr. Polk dropped in at the News oftice and made us a short call. We are glad to notice that he has been pro moted in the service to class No. J, which is the same class that Mr. Arm strong and Mr. Marshall are in. J. C. Stevenson lost a fine horse Tuesday. He was out in the field list ing with four horses hitched to the lister. The two horses on the inside are the ones that the lines are attached to while the horses on the outside are checked. The horse on the right side became unchecked and started around the others and in so doing caused one of them to fall back onto the lister, being terribly cut. It died in a very short time, before Mr. Lane, the veterinary could arrive. This isquite a loss to Mr. Stevenson as it was one of his most valuable horses. Loviisville From the Courier. The little child of Mrs. John Gobel has been quite sick the past week with the measles. A number of our town's people drove out to Jim Terry berry's farm home last Sunday and spent the day. George II. Wood, the blushingyoung cashier of the Bank of Commerce, went to Lincoln Thursday and met with the State Bankers' association and others.! Henry Standerof Souu. Bend was in town Thursday buying farm imple ments. Mr. Stander has his corn, ninety acres, all planted and says the ground is in good condition. Otto Becker has purchased one of the ljest h cated saloon properties in Council Bluffs and will take charge June 1. Mr. Becker will not move his family away from Louisville, however. Louisville would prefer to lie a little dry this year than to Ik; as wet assome of her sister towns, Plattsmouth or l'apillion for instance. The little four-year-old girl of Oscar Knutson poured a gallon of kerosene in a stove and had spilled the oil all over her clothing and was searching for a match when her mother came in. The little one would no doubt have been burned up had her mother not discovered what she did. George Frater and family left Tues day evening for Independence, Okla homa, where Mrs. Frater and her two children will spend the summer with her parents. Mr. Frater will remain two or three weeks with hopes of the change benefiting his health. The drug business is in charge of Harry Evans of Weeping Water during Mr. Prater's absence. The proper thing for Louisville to do now is to organize a stock company and build a flouring mill. Such an institution, if properly managed and backed up by the merchants, would pay good interest on the money in vested, besides being of great lenelit to the town. Elmwood From the leader-Kclio. Mrs. II. L. Clapp has lteen quite sick this week with malarial fever. Mrs. Henry Bornemier's daughter hay typhoid fever and is quite sick. The little four-year old son of Will Stokes fell Tuesday night, breaking bones of his left arm just below the elbow. Dr. Timothy TtKld, of Plattsmouth, called on his many Elmwood friends this week. Tim is now a full Hedged tooth manipulator and has opened up an office at Plattsmouth. Will Urban met with a very severe and painful accident Saturday, while working in the field with a riding lister. He reached down while the lister was running to pull out a corn stalk, when his left hand was caught inthecogsof the lister and terribly mashed. He immediately drove to town and Doctor Neely amputated the little finger close to the hand. The restj of the hand is terribly mashed, but the doctor has hopes of saving it. The many friends of Fred Sollers, an old Elmwood boy, but oj late years a resident of Montana, near . Decker, will be shocked to hear of the death of his wife, which occurred last week from typhoid fever. Two or three days later, his little daughter aged about five years, died from pneumonia, and his oldest boy now lies at the point of death with pneumonia. Mrs. David McCaig, a sister of the stricken hus band and father, left for Decker Mon day evening. Fred has the deep sym pathy of his many friends here. Maple Grove Special Correspondence. Mr. and Mrs. W. II. Puis and Luie Puis were among the Plattsmouth visitors last Thursday. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Wenke and family, were Louisville visitors Satur day and Sunday. Born to He v. Spreigel and wife, May 20th, a baby boy. This locality is getting its share of the rain now, quite a little corn has been washed out and corn planting starts in fresh again.

Query: What is worse than too much rain? Anwer: More rain. This is the situation: Corn planted mostly washed out, or buried beyond redemption. Rain every day, and then rain at night, morning, noon and eve. How long, O Lord, how long? Many farmers say that they will not try any more planting until the rains call a halt. The season is getting to be late, too. Four Mile creek's cup of happiness has been full to overflowing six times in the last ten days. Everybody says, "more rain, more rain." Phil Cook says it is enough to make a man leave his wife this thing of rain. There is some talk of a loat house being built here by a company of capi talists in the near fnture. We had a few items for the Journal, but the Journal will have to be content with a few "drowned" ones this trip. One item of interest is the tale of a far mer who tells of a spot of ground on his farm, twenty by thirty feet, on which there has no rain fallen in all this sea son, the ground being dry, and even dusty. No one can say Mynard items are dry this week. Yu No H Murray SH'lal Corresioiidenci) The adjuster for the German Mutual Insurance (Company, was in Murray Monday fixing up the damages on Ottis Mc.N'urlin's house which was struck by lightning several nights ago.

Puis all shipiwd cattle from here the first of the week. John Beck man lias lost several of his fine cows from green clover. Numer ous reports of this kind have come in from the fanners.

Edgar Marks is sorely distressed t his week. His pet coons have crawled up between the plastering and siding of his house and he cannot re-capture them without tearing down the build ing.
