PRIZE CASS COUNTY
BABY BOY AT NEB
RASKA STATE FAIR
From Tuesday a Dai:y.
That Cass county is pre-eminer.t in
the field of every line of the products
of the state has been often proven, and
the la.est honor to fall to this county
is the awarding of the prize as one of
the leading boys of the state to Fran
cis Brendel Marquardt, the little 20
montht"Old son of Mr. and Mrs. Harry
Marquardt of Avoca. The young man
in the state fair Better Rabies contest
won the prize with a score of t'b.5.
Francis Brendel Marquardt.
The little man is a bright, hund
some little fellow and his success in
the contest is well deserved, as he is
as near a perfect baby as it is possible
to find anywhere. He is a nephew of
County Superintendent Miss Eda Mar
Cjuardt, and the young man expects to
accorrrany his parents here tomorrow
to witness the ball game between
Flattsmouth and Avoca.
TWO GOOD-SIZED
RATTLESNAKES KILL
ED NEAR THE RIVER
From Wednesday's rally.
Another snake story is revealed in
the adventures of two young men who
Sunday were engaged in hazcl-nutting
along the river banks near the home
of John Gouchenour. The two young
men, Royal Smith and Will Nolting,
came onto two rattlers which were
curled up beneath some bushes, and
the snakes, as soon as they saw the
boys, coiled for a fight, but were dis
patched with clubs and put out of
commission. They measured four feet
in length and had ten rattles on them
and were very fierce specimens of the
snake family .
IDAHO AND CASS COUNTY
FRUiT SAMPLES RECEIVED
From Wednesday's D&Cr.
Several fine speciments of the fruit
of Idaho were presented to the Jour
nal office a few days ago by Mrs. F.
It. Guthman, who has returned from
the mountain state. The fruit con
sisted of Green Gage plum3 and
peaches, which were raised near Mur
phy, Idaho, where C. F. Guthmann has
made his home for a number of yeare,
and shows that the claims made for
the fruit of the mountain state have
not been overestimated.
Mrs. Mark "White also brought in a
fine specimen of Cass county produce;
ir) the form of a very large pear which
was grown at the country home near
Rock Bluffs, and the pear is one of the
finest and largest we have seen this
years and is typical of the fruit crop
raised this season in Cass county.
