The Woodman Circle last even
ing held a meeting at the A. O. U.
W. hall that was attended by a
very large number of the mem
bership of the order, and there
was much interest shown in the
gathering. The drill team of the
order conducted three candidates
into the mysteries of the lodge in
their usual impressive manner,
and thus the membership of this
thriving lodge was increased as
the result of the work of the offi
cers and the deputy,' who have
labored long and faithfully for
the betterment of the order here.
At the close of the regular busi
ness session of the lodge the
members enjoyed a most delight
ful social time for several hours
in dancing and there were quite a
number of the friends of the
order present to take part in the
pleasures of the evening. During
the evening some very delicious
refreshments were served which
added a most pleasant featuer to
an evening of enjoyment, and it
was a late hour when the mem
bers departed for their homes,
feeling that as entertainers the
Woodman Circle were right on
to their business and to be there
was certainly a rare pleasure.

St. John's church in this city, de
parted last evening on No. 2 for
Rulo, Xeb., where he goes to take
part in the ceremonies of dedicat

that place. Owing to the poor
train service it required quite a
fatiguing journey, with several
long waits for Father Shine to
reach his destination, being com

hours for a train that would con

Yesterday W. S. Wetenkamp of
near Mynard was in the city for a
few hours, and while here called
at the Journal ollice and renewed
his subscription to the daily for
another year. Mr. Wetenkamp,
wife and mother, Mrs. William
Wetenkamp, and brother, Albert
Wetenkamp, made an auto trip to
Eagle on Saturday in the line
nter-State touring car of Will's,
being called there by the death of
an uncle, Deitrich Schwegman,
who passed away at his home
near that village on Thursday
last. After the funeral, which
was behl from the late home of
the deceased, two miles west and
four miles south of Kagle, the
parly returned home Sunday aft
ernoon, visiting for the night
with some relatives in Kagle.
While making the trip through
the county Mr. Wetenkamp says
they noted the line appearance of
the crops, and that fall wheat
in the western part of the county
was as fine appearing- as he ever
saw it, and on every hand there
were indications for a bumper
crop. Mr. Wetenkamp is one of
the progressive young farmers of
the county and his judgment on
the grain is good, and unless
something unforseen happens the
crop this year will be a record-breaker.

PIONEER LADY OF
GREENWOOD DIES
AT HERX
Now that the summer season is
drawing on apace tin? question of
public improvements is one that
will occupy the attention of the
public of the city, and among
these is the fact that the three
avenues of the city, Chicago,
Washington and Lincoln, should
be kept in the best of condition
for travel, as these three high
ways allow the people Irom the
county to reach the business part
of the cily, am! in order that they
may experience no hardship in
dointr so it is necessarv that these
streets be kept in the best of
shape. Tn this city the task of
keeping the avenues grade ! up is
a very diflicult one, owing to the
fact' that the water from the
numerous lulls all runs onto
these thoroughfares, and it
makes the work of the street de
partment quite strenuous, but
there should be no effort spared
to see that they are kept as
smooth and free from ruts and
gullies as possible and that the
grader is run over them quite
frequently to keep them in the
best of shape. "
WILLIAM URWIN
OF LOUISVILLE BEFORE
THE INSANITY BOARD
From AVednesday's lally.
This morning the county board
of insanity had before them Wil
liam Urwin, a resident of Louis
ville, who was brought down by
Deputy Sheriff Manspeaker, com
plaint having been tiled against
him by Marshal Seybert of that
place for being insane. The man
seems rational enough in most
matters, but claims that he has
been shot several times by the
residents and neighbors, and on
Ibis point lie is very much off his
base mentally. lie has an im
pression that he has been shot
several times through the breast
bv Marshal Seybert and that
others in that same village have
made attacks on him. There
were several present, at the hear
ing from Louisville, who testified
as to his actions on this point and
his frequent assertions that lie
had been badly wounded. lie is a
man about 50 ears of age and
stales he has a wife and family
of six children. The testimony or
the witnesses shows that on all
subjects except the one of his be
ing shot he is apparently as
sound in mind as anyone. The
board, after hearing the testi
mony in the case, derided to send
him to the state-hospital, where
he will be given treatment in the
hopes of restoring his former
healthy mental state.

This morning about 8:30 Mrs.
Homer McKay met with a very
painful accident at her home in
the north part of the cily. She
was walking around the yard at
the home when she suddenly slip
ped and fell, and in falling struck
on her left arm, spraining it quite
badly, and at lirst it was thought
that she had broken the member,
but on examination by the physi
cian it was found only to be a
very severe .sprain, which will,
however, cause her to lose the
use of the arm for some time, as
the sprain is at the wrist and will
of necessity be quite painful for
several week?. As soon as the
accident oecurred the members of
the family hastened to her aid
and she was conveyed to the
house and medical assistance
summoned l care- for her and
the injury dressed and the patient
made as comfortable as possible
under the circumstances. About
eight years ago Mrs. McKay suf
fered a bVeak of this arm and it
was feared by her family that a
similar accident bad befallen her
again. At last reports she was
resting easily and will probably,
