fact that the goods were so conceal

of the whole thing Is that the tall

Conducting Examination.
Miss Foster is engaged today In
conducting the examination of ap

this county today. Another exami

number of applications for certifi

of town applicants aro Miss Ethel

Fern Kline of Cedar Creek, Miss Eva
Porter of Mynard, Misses Ednah and
Mayola Propst of Mynard. There are
also a great many applicants from
this city.
Mr. Will is hopeful that planting will
not make too great inroad on the

get the road in shape for the rock.
Manager Davis of the telephone
company has made every effort to get
the company stirred into action and
Is well pleased with the result. A

probably resulted in further compli

and the company as the city authori

DIED Johnson, Henry, at the Ma
sonic home, Plattsmouth, Nebras
ka, on Saturday, May 21, 1910, ol
uremia, aged 81 years, 7 months
and 6 days. Funeral at Wahoo,
. Neb., on Sunday, May 22, 1910,
under auspices of the Masonic
order.
After an illness extending over
several months Henry Johnson at one
time one of the most prominent men
in Saunders county and in eastern
Nebraska, passed to his reward. For
some time past his life had been de
spaired of owing to heart troubles
and other complications, uremia be
ing the direct cause of his demise.
Deceased was well known In this city
where he had had many business
dealings during his life time and was
highly esteemed and respected. He
was always in his life time a thor
oughly upright and most estimable
man and all who knew him honor and
respect his memory.
Deceased was born In Wayne
county, Ind., on October 15, 1828,
and at the time of his death was ap
roaching the age of eighty-two years.
At an early age he came to Nebras
ka and for many years was In the
livery business and also in the horse
business. He accumulated a fortune
in this business which afterwards he
lost in unfortunate business specula
tions. From Ashland, deceased moved
to Wahoo where he became a mem
ber of lodge No. 53, A. F. & A. M.,
and was one of its most prominent
and influential members. While at
Wahoo Mr. Johnson entered Into the
fast horse business and for many,
years he raced horses over the Unit
ed ,S tetaswog &and. .oc.mau.Reta
ed States owning some of the beet
and speediest animals to be had. He
also was honored by the citizens of
Saunders county with election to the
office of sheriff and in this position
he gave great satisfatclon, filling the
6fflce In an excellent manner. Mr.
Johnsons wife died a number of
years ago and he is not survived by
any family.
The remains of this excellent man
will be interred at Wahoo, his old
home tomorrow, Sunday, May 22, the
body being taken to that city this
afternoon on the Schuyler train.
Messrs. J. N. Davis and II. K. Marcey
of Wahoo came down this morning
and will accompany the remains to
that place. Mr. Johnson was ad.
mitted to the Masonic home in thl3
city on May 5, 1909, where he has
since spent his days1.
Poisoned Hand.
Ed. Kruger, the driver of Soen
nichsen's delivery wagon, has beea
taking a layorf of several days suf
fering from a poisoned hand. The
young man scratched his hand on a
piece of brass about a week ago but
paid little attention to the matter
until It became infected and commen
ced to swell up. It was necesBary
'to have the hand and arm lanced
several times by a surgeon before the
effects of the poison could be count
eracted but it is believed now that
the serious trouble Is over and that
all which will be required now is time
in which to permit the hand to heal
up. It will be several days, however,
before he is able to go to work again.
