Only two mail trains last Tuesday, and no trains at all on Wednesday was the result of the heavy snow storm of Monday night and Tuesday. On ac count of the heavy winds it would be hard to estimate the amount of snow that fell as the drifts varv from two to six feet in depth. The heavy snow caused Albert Hunt's front porch to collapse Tuesday morn ing, breaking a couple of windows out of the store front. Nehawka (From the Kegister.) Mrs. Wm.

FRY PASSES AWAY Occurred at Iowa City About a Yeek Ago Brother of Thomas Fry Last summer some time the brother of Thomas Fry of this city, Elias H. Fry of near Iowa City, was stricken with a cancer and grew rapidly worse, the malady making quick ravages on his face, where located and causing ex treme sulfering.

The funeral accurred a week ago last Monday, Mr. Thomas Fry re turned home last evening, from his attendence at the last sad rite tendered the remains of his brother. WILL THE LAW BE ENFORCED? This is the Query Which is Agitating the Minds of the Telegraphers and the Telegraph Companies and Railroads. The national nine-hour telegraph law which is to go into effect and operation on March 4, next, is creating much un rest with the various railroads and tele graph companies, and is a matter which the Order of Railway Telegraphers are watching with a great deal of interest. The lodge of the order which embraces Nebraska, on the Burlington, has for its head officers: M. J. Johnson, of An selmo, president; and W. A. Henry, of Ericksan, secretary, are now in Chica go, watching what is to be done, look ing towards the enforcement of the law or the placing of obsticles in its way which will prevent its going into opera tion. The Burlington system, which hire direct all their operators, have de cided to make application for postpon ing the enforcement of the law and with the various other railway companies, which are making applications for simi lar injunctions, if granted, would be a decided blow toward defeating the in auguration of the working of the law. The Order of Railway Telegraphers, who are now maintaining headquarters at the Saratoga Hotel, in Chicago, and putting fourth all efforts possible to col lect such data as will combat the argu ment which the railroad companies may offer for the asking of an injunction. They are in touch with every division of every road who are asking for an in junction, and when the time comes for the arguments to be heard, will present a list of operators out of employment, who are competent and desirous of working, that can be had to supply those needed for the extra amount which will be needed when the law is put into op eration. It is estimated that on this division of the Burlington about twenty extra oper ators will be required, and from statis tics furnished by the order they can be had and are, in fact, anxious to secure employment. What the result will be when the time comes for the hearing of the application for the injunction, will remain a problem until that time. Lent Comes Late. The 1908 Lenton season commences this year on March the 4th, the latest for several years. Last year Lent began on Feb. 12th, nearly, a month earlier than this year. The full list of church dates for the year is as follows: Eeptagesima February 16. Sxgseima Sunday March 1. Shrove Tuesday March 3. Ash Wednesday March 4. Quadragesima Sunday -March 8. Palm Sunday April 12. Good Friday April 17. Easter Sunday April 19. Eighteen Inches of Snow Those who were hunting the fective rabbit yesterday in the timber, where the wind did not have a chance at the snow, and where it lies on the level, say that the snow is eighteen inches deep. This is more snow at one time than we have had for years, and should be a source of a good deal of moisture which will be acceptable for the farm ers, when it comes time to begin spring work. Skin Disease of Twenty Years Standing Cured I want you to know how much Chamb erlain's Salve has done for me. It has cured my face of a skin disease of almost twenty years' standing. I have been treated by several as smart physicians as we have in thi3 country and they did me no good, but two boxes of this salve has cured me. Mrs. Fannie Griffin, Troy, Ala. Chamberlain's Salve is for ale by F. G. Fricke & Co. mum TAILKS IF HEBBflSKfl POLITICS I The President Thinks Question as to the Attitude of the Repub lican Party in Nebraska. A special from Washington, under- date of February 17, says: "The east ern papers reports of the doings of the Lancaster county republicans continue to attract much attention. This morn ing Senator Burkett and Congressman Pollard, were among the callers at the White house, and it is known that Mr. Pollard, at least, discussed the Nebras ka situation with the president. Later in the day Mr. Pollard gave out a type written statement to the press, declar ing that Nebraska ought to line up for Taft. The statement concluded with the words: "It is significant that Mr. Pollard gave out this interview im mediately after leaving the White house this morning." Mr. Pollard's statement said: "On being asked what he had to say concern ing the action of the Lancaster county convention instructing for President Roosevelt, for a third term, Mr. Pollard replied: I have just received a paper which gives a full account of the con vention. It seems the supporters of the administration are divided between the president and Secretary Taft. Un der the existing circumstances it seems to me that there ought to be no ques tion as to the attitude of the party in Nebraska. I have talked with the pres ident a great many times about the presidential situation and have repeat edly urged him to simply remain inactive and that the country would unquestion ably renominate him. He has invari ably said his published statement im mediately after election three years ago, recently repeated, expresses his WILL PLOW WITH GASOLINE The Cass County Land Com pany Have Purchased a Gasoline Engine With Which to Break j Prairie The Cass County Land company, by i their manager, J. G. Richey, today purchased a gasoline engine from the Kennard & Haines manufacturing com pany, though their local agent, W. II . Warner, and their traveling salesman, Geo. Dalmars, of Minneopolis. The engine is a traction, and is known as the "Four City," is a twenty-five horse power machine capable of pull ing in ordinary old ground eight 14 inch plows in a gang, and on which, in the prairie sod, only seven and worked. With this machine and the plows which Mr. Richey went to Omaha this after noon to purchase they expect to break about 15 acres on an average per day. The engine is to be shipped to Grenada, Colorado, where Mr. Richey will go during the next month to get the ap paratus in operation. The company ex pect to break about five hundred acres of prairie during the coming spring, and with the plowing of the old land will make nearly as much more. The apparatus as arranged will plow on the outside round of a section of land in old ground two acres at one round, while on the sod it will hardly plow quite so much. Baker Has An Apprentice At Ed. Kuncl's bakery the cigars were in evidence yesterday, and 10 centers to all, on account of a ten pound boy that has come to make his home with the baker. The mother and little boy are doing nicely and the father well, while he gets along at the the bakery, he can hardly hold himself together for pure joy. You have heard of the smile that wont rub off well, just glance at our good-natured baker and see for yourself. Now when you are buying cookies, and ask for a half dozen, and receive ten instead, remem ber he is thinking of how much the boy weighs, (just ten pounds. ) You need not call his attention to the mis take in the count he wont take them back he is satisfied. Please accept our congratulations, old boy, may you live long and prosper. CASTOR I A t For Infants and Children. . The Kind You Have Alwajs Bought Bears the Signature of There Ought to Be No position clearly and honestly, and that he trusted the people would accept his statement without question. I am con vinced that under no circumstances will he accept a nomination for a third term. He is strongly of the opinion that the precedent established by George Washington at the expiration of his second term ought not to be set aside. The president has repeatedly told me that his only desire was that the re publican nominated to succeed him should be a man thoroughly in sympathy with his administration and that the policy he has inaugurated should be prosecuted vigorously until finally writ ten into law. Secretary Taft has leen the president's close adviser and coun selor. He has contributed more than any other man in the cabinet to thesuc cess of the Roosevelt administration, in fact, he is a part of it. The presi dent has a wider acquaintance among public men than any man in official life today. He is in a better position to judge who is best capable of perpetu ating the policies of his administration than anyone else. The fact that Presi dent Roosevelt is giving his faithful support to Secretary Taft, and his re peated declination to become a candi date for renomination ought to be sufficient for all in favor of reforms. " 'If I thought the president would accept the nomination for a third term I would be most heartily in favor of his nomination. Being convinced he will not, I think it best policy not to compli cate the situation by sending an in structed delegation to the Chicago con vention for him.' " Will Rap-rap At Oreapolis Will H. Russell of the Burlington, came in last evening from Fremont, where he with his crow of workman have just put in two large mats, for the protection of the Burlingtons bridge at that point. They immediately begin on the weaving a mat for the protection of one of the piers of the Burlington bridge across the Platte river, at Ore apolis. "NOT BECAUSE HIS EYES WERE BLUE" A Man Nearly Answering the Discription of James Clark. Apprehended at St. Joseph Some few days since Sheriff Carroll D. Quinton received information of the arrest of a person at St. Joseph, answering the discription very closely of the man who was in jail at this place for some time charged with loot ing the home of W. E. Stander, near Murdock, and on which charge he was held to the district court, breaking jail, with the assistance of someone outside, and for whom the officers have since been looking. Monday Sheriff Quinton departed for St. Joseph, where he went to identify the party, and if he be the man bring him back. Upon ar rival at St. Joseph the man proved to not be the man, but resembled him so closely that it required very close in spection to determine the difference. The man who escaped and who gave his name as Clark, has brown eyes, of a peculiar snappishness, while the man at St Joseph, who gave hi3 name as Earl Jamison, has blue eyes, but with much the same expression. The build was about the same, with the dark hair and nervous disposition which characterized the man who broke jail here. Jamison was apprehended for having stolen shoes in his possession, and was given GO days in the work house for telling a wrong story about how he obtained possession of the goods. The shoes were turned over to the railroad detectives that they might ferret out the robbery from which they came. Sheriff Quinton returned home last evening by the way of the Missouri Pacific. Moving to Hamburg, Iowa. J. B. Breedlove, after having lived in this city for some time, is moving to Hamburg, Iowa, the place from which he came when coming here. His son, J. H. Breedlove, i3 here from Hamburg, assisting in getting the household goods loaded and shipped. The extremely stormy weather which has prevail for the past two days is making it very difficult for the moving.
