There are MJ.ooo rural letter boxes
in the country and, before the close of
the summer, these boxes will be res
plendent in a coat of brilliant green
paint, which paint will In? furnished
the rural letter carriers by the depart
ment. Some days ago Postmaster General
Cortelyou asked the comptroller of the
treasury if he could employ the rural
letter carriers to paint the rural letter
boxes. The comptroller decided that
the postmaster general could contract
with the carriers to paint these boxes,
provided it did not Interfere with the
mail service and the carriers were will
ing to do the work. The comptroller
also suggested that it would be only
proper to see that the work was done
at a uniform price.
In a few days the rural carriers will
be informed by the department that
they will be allowed so much per box
the price not being yet fixed by the
postmaster general the department

Mrs. W. A. Swearinger succeeded in
surprising her neice, Miss Beatrice
Hasse, most completely Saturday, from
4:.'J0 to 1 p. m., in response to invita
tions sent out to twenty-four boys and
girls in honor of her fifteenth birth
day anniversary.
To say the honored guest was sur
prised would be too paint a description
judging from the expression which
dawned upon the worthy face.
After a few pleasant hours in chat
and games and much merry-making,
the guests were told to match rhyms
of "Little Ro Peep" and "Mother
Hubbard," which was done in a short
time.

Hasse. The tables were veryjbeauti
ful with their floral decoration in sweet
peas. In the center of the large table
was a birthday cake on which was
placed fifteen candles indicating the
age of Miss Beatrice.
After eating the birthday cake great
excitement prevailed until it was dis
covered that Elmer Spies had found
the silver thimble, Kathyrn Windham
the gold ring, set with turquoise, and
Helen Spies the coin. The thimble
indicates an old bachelor, the ring
early marriage, the coin that of
wealth. Later high-tive and flinch
were the principal source of amuse
ment, while music and dancing were
another pleasant feature of the even
ing. Beatrice was the recipient of many
pretty and dainty gifts and the best
wishes from her friends for many hap
py returns of the day. The guests de
parted after having had a most de
lightful time.
Mrs. Swearinger was complimented
very highly for the successful manner
in which she had planned and carried
out the surprise.
Those present were: Misses Ellen
Pollock, Lucille Gass, Hallie Parmele,
Helen Spies, Helen Clark, Madeline

ROMANTIC CHAPTER ENDED
Charlie Webb, Searching for His Mother,
is Called to Ashland, Neb., to
Learn Her Whereabouts.
Thursday, for the tirsl t ime in main
!?ars, tin' boy who b'-lieves himself a
! Charlie Webb, heard what lie U'lieves
j to have been his mother's voice. It
was about 2 o'clock when a telephone
call came from Ashland, asking for
Charlie Webb The boy could not at
once be located but after careful
search a small boy was found who said
Charlie had gone fishing. A messen
ger was sent for him and lie was
brought to the telephone.
"Is this Charlie Webb?" asked a
woman's voice at the other end of the
'phone. It was a tender and wistful
voice. It was such a voice as might
well belong to a woman speaking to a
long-lost son.
The boy replied that he was Charlie
Webb. A short silence followed and
then the voice at the other end spoke
again.
"Charlie," it said, "I want you to
come to me. I am in Ashland and I
will telegraph a ticket to you at
Plattsmouth."
Charlie Webb asked w ho the woman
was to which she replied that she did
not wish to say, but that he should
come to her at once and she would tell
him where to find his mother.
The young man went to the Bur
lington station. He had scarcely ar
rived there when the message came to
issue him a ticket. He left on the af
ternoon train for Ashland.
Thus may end a romance extending
over twenty years, involving the guilty
love of a man and woman, their sepa
ration, the death of the man and all
the awful harvest of ill that is inevit
ably the wages of sin.
Accident Near Murray.
Andrew Beck, the 14-year-old son of
Mac Beck, met with a very .serious
accident near Avoca while visiting it
the home of Ernest Saling last Sun
day. The boy was playing about the barn
and had climbed up the side of a corn
crib. He was about half way up when
his lingers slipped, he lost his hold
and fell backward. One of his shoes
was tightly wedged in between two
slats and stuck fast when he fell. His
weight came upon the one leg,
it broke; under the strain like a twig
add the jagged end of the bone forced
its way through the llesh making an
ugly bleeding wound.
And there the boy hung by his
mutilated leg. The pain was awfnl
and the boy's cries soon brought help.
He was taken to the house and a phy
sician summoned. The doctor at once
saw it was an ugly compound fracture.
He advised sending the boy to a hos
pital and this was done.
The boy is now in an Omaha hos
pital where scant hopes are enter
tained of saving his leg.
One of Cass County's Pioneers.
William M. Wiley was in the city
Friday, where he comes regularly,
at least once a week, to trade with
home merchants. He is one of the
oldest pioneer settlers of Cass county,
having settled on the home where he,
with his wife, now live in 18..
He then built a log house, and al
though has added many acres to his
landed estate and made many and val
uable improvements, he will not give
up that old log house. To him it is
the sacred memory of fifty years ago,
when struggling youth w orked at hard
est toil in field and forest. The same
old log house he built to pay in part,
his pre-emption of land from the gov
ernment fifty years ago, he still pre
serves and in which he still has his old
bed-room and old fashioned fire place.
His home is a short distance from
Rock Bluffs, in a neighborhood where
many of the old pioneers of Cass coun
ty settled in the early days, but now,
few of whom remain.
Mr. Wiley is one of the few pioneer
democrats of Cass county now remain
ing, but still adheres to that political
faith to which he pledged his early
manhood.
Mr. Wiley has been twice married
and is the father of twenty children,
sixteen of whom grew to manhood and
womanhood and are still living.
President Roosevelt would get illus
trative wisdom from Mr. Wiley on the
question of race and family suicide.
Mrs. Rawls Entertains.
Mrs. C. A. Rawls entertained most
delightfully Friday evening in ton jrof
