Notary Public,
Exciting Runaway.
A very exciting runaway occur
red at the depot last Thursday
morning. A young man by the
name of Shepherdson had driven
to the station with some cans o
cream, and just about that tim
a freight from the north wa
coming in on the sidetrack to
await the passing of the north
bound local freight. The horse
hitched to the vehicle began to
rare and plunge, and getting
loose from the buggy started
down the railroad track to mee
the incoming train from the
south. In its attempt to cross
the bridge it went through with
all fours, and the trainmen had
to stop and assist in relieving the
frightened animal, which was
done in a short time. Strange to
say, with the exception of a few
scratches, the animal was not in
jured, but the vehicle was con
siderably broken up. This dash
afforded some excitement to those
about the depot.
Old Resident Here.
Stephen Duer, a former pioneer
resident of Rock Bluffs, came in
from his home at Franklin, Neb
Friday to pay a short visit to his
boyhood home. Mark White
took charge of Mr. Duer and in
his auto conveyed that gentle
man to a number of the homes
of those who knew Mr. Duer in
the early days of the country,
Among those whom they visited
was D. A. Young, where they took
dinner and spent several hours
most pleasantly conversing about
their younger days. They also
met many other pioneer citizens,
and Mark made Mr. Duer's visit
as pleasant as possible. It has
been over forty years since Mr.
Duer left ' here, when a young
man, and since that time he has
become financially well fixed and
is the possessor of many broad
acres near Franklin. He depart
ed for his home Monday night.
Change of Firm.
W. S. Smith, formerly of the
firm of Holmes & Smith, but who
has been on the road most of the
time since the firm sold out, has
purchased the stock of Joe Cook,
and will hold forth in the Mc-
Daniel building in the future. Mr
Smith is now engaged in over
hauling and arranging things to
his notion, and will put in a nice
clean stock of goods. Will is well
known to the people of this vi
cinity, and being a nice clean
gentleman and fully understand
ing the business in which he is
engaged, the Journal bespeaks
for him a liberal share of the
public patronage.
They Do the Business.
Hiatt & Tutt are the up-to-date
merchants of Murray. They
don't believe in keeping shop
worn goods on their shelves from
season to season, when a reduc
tion in prices will move them".
That's the reason- they are doing
the business, and the people are
getting the benefit of the bar.
gains offered. And then, you
know Demmie and Ed are clever
and accommodating to do busi
ness with. ,

up the Crete plan of domestic
science. The talk of Miss Foster
