All of our readers in this locality are no doubt well aware of the fact that the M. P. Ry. Co.. experienced quite a serious wreck south of Mur ray Wednesday morning, also that no trains were sent through Murray until late in the evening of that day. They also well know that the public highway was in a very poor condition for traveling in an auto or buggy, and that eight miles and return would b quite a distance for one of our corpul ency to travel on foot. Thus the cause for the shortage of news in our Mur ray department this week. We were promised a number of new items by mail and we thought this would as st us to a great extent, but lo these promises did .not materialize with the required budget of happenings of this locality. However, we acknowledge one letter from one of the faithful and we are reminded of the old say ing that "the friend in need is the friend indeed." If the many hundred readers who look forward to this lit tle section of the paper each week will bear with us this issue we will try and make amends in the future. C. F. Harris was looking after some matters of business in the county seat Wednesday. Mrs. John Lloyd of Fairbury, Neb., is here visiting at the home of Mr. and Mrs. D. C. Rhoden.

Mr. Beckman was driving borne from Plattsmouth in a buggy with a sinele horse and when Uncle Tien was iust turninc- into his farm cast of Murray an auto came ru-hirg j from the direction of Murray and was on him before he could gut out of the buggy. The car demolished one wheel of the buggv and broke the shafts, re leasing the horse and had it not been for the quickness of our old friend in keeping the buggy balanced it would have turned over and while he was trying to prevent the buggy from turning over lie sustained a very se- vere sprined back, who the parties mobile were.
