ENJOY A SPLENDID OUTING DOWN IN STATE OF MISSOURI George Ray and wife and Frank Grauf and wife and daughter, Miss Emma, of near Murray who have been enjoying a visit several miles be low Burlington Junction, Mo., have returned home and were much pleased with the outing. The trip was made by auto and was without a mishap of any kind and one of the most com plete enjoyment as the route was along the excellent roads of that local itj While in Missouri the party were the guests of Joe and Ernest Mont gomery and it is stated that they showed their hosts something about playing cards. Frank states that a series of games of pitch were staged to settle the question of the supre macy of Nebraska or Missouri and in this the Nebraska boys proceeded to show the Missouri lads most success fully and got away with the honor of winning the series. i esterday a very serious runaway occurred south of the city in the vi cinity of Murray, that resulted very seriously for John Lowther, one of the leading farmers residing south of this city. Mr. Lowther had been at Murray to convey his son-in-law, Bei t Root, there to catch a train, and was bound for his home when the runaway occurred. As Mr. Lowther was driv ing along near the farm of Oscar Gapen, an automobile passed him. when the team became frightened and started to run and, being a very high- spirited team, soon got beyond control of Mr. Lowther and tore madly along the road, demolishing the buggy as they ran. When near the farm of D. A. Young the team completely de molished the buggy and Mr. Lowthi-r was hurled among the wreckage of the vehicle. Aid was soon on the scene and Dr. B. F. Brundel sum moned from Murray, and on examina tion it was found that Mr. Lowther had suffered the loss of the scalp from one side of his head and was i apparently suffering from a fracture of the skull. He was brought by automobile to this city and after :i consultation it was decided to removt him to the Presbyterian hospital in Omaha, where he was hurried, and at 9 o'clock last night the injured head was operated on. At last reports, re ceived today, the victim of the run away was reported as resting as easily as possible, but owing to the serious nature of the injuries it is feared it will be some time before he will lie out of danger.

FIRST DRY MEETING OF THE CAMPAIGN , The first dry meeting of the fall campaign was held in this city Sat urday evening at the corner of Fifth and Main streets where the band stand was stationed and from which the speaker of the evening, Attorney C. A. Rawls, delivered 'his address in advocacy of the adoption of the pro hibition amendment to the constitution of the state. A number of school children were seated on the platform and gave a number of the campaign songs of the dry forces including "Dry Clean Nebraska," and other se lections which have been used quite extensively by the adherents of the prohibition cause. Mr. Rawls in his remarks pointed out the betterment that would follow the adoption of the prohibition amendment. The address was litstened to by a large number of the workers in the prohibition and considering the numerous other at tractions going on in the city drew a very satisfactory crowd. It is the in tention of the dry federation of the county to hold these meetings each Saturday evening from now until election and speakers and workers from all sections of the county will be he.re to participate in the meetings and in that manner divide the work be tween the teamsf romthe different towns of the county.

Catarrhal Deafness Cannot Be Cured by local applications, as they cannot reach the diseased portion of the ear. There is only one way to cure catarrhal deafness, and that is by a constitutional remedy. Catarrhal Deafness is caused by an in flamed condition of the mucous lining of the Eustachian Tube. When this tube is inflamed you have a rumbling sound or im perfect hearing, and when it is entirely closed. Deafness is the result. Unless the inflammation can be reduced and this tube restored to its normal condition, hearine will bs destroyed forever. Many cases of deafness are caused by catarrh, which la an inflamed condition of the mucous sur faces. Hall's Catarrh Medicine acts thru the blood on the mucous surfaces of the system.

O. r Does the Open Saloon Produce Prosperity? Does Regulations Regulate the Open Saloon? m Practically every court in the United States, with one accorcJ, have answered these questrons. Below are given the answers from a few of the Courts of the several States and the United States Supreme Court: JSupreme Court of Illinois, says: r "Wo presume do one would have the hardihood to contend that the retail sale of intoxicating drinks does not tend, in a large degree, to demoralize the community, to foster vice, produce crime and beggary, want and misery." Schwuchow v. Chicago. C8 111. 444 Supreme Court of Iowa, says: "An enumeration of all the evils arising from the use of intoxicating liquors nee'l not be attempted. They are numerous and affect the people collectively and in dividually. Idleness, poverty, pauperism, crime, insanity, disease, and the destruction of human life, follow indulgence in the habit of using intoxicating drinks. Millions of our fellow-countrymen are addicted to this habit, and of these, millions become drunk ards. Homes are broken up and domestic peace is destroyed by drunkenness. The prisons, almshouses, and institutions for the care of orphans, insanity and afflicted, are largely filled by the vice." "Thinking men of this day concur in the opinion that the in fluence of saloon, and the idelness and vice of the multitude of its clientage, constitute the great peril of American institutions. We think none will deny that nothing but evil flows from this source." Pearson v. International Distillery, 72 la. 348 Supreme Court of Indiana, says: "The evils which attend ancj inhere in the business of handling and selling intoxi cating liquor are universally recognized, and the danger therefrom to the peace and good order of the community everywhere necessitates the exercises of the police power." Schmidt v. City, 80 N. E. G.'!2 Supreme Court of the United States, says: "By the general concurrence of opinion of every civilized and christian communi ty, there are few sources of crime and misery to society equal to the dram shop, where, intoxicating liquors in small quantities, to be drunk at the time are sold indiscriminately to all parties applying. The statistics of every State show a greater amount of crime and misery attributable to the use of ardent spirits obtianed at these retail liquor saloons than to any other source." Crowley v. Christensen, 137 U. S. 86 The U. S. Census Report 1910, shows: Delinquents committed to prison, in Nebraska 5,888 Delinquents committed to prison, in Kansas 3,594 P attsmouth Prosperity League
