f; ct that Earl R. Travis, for the past
twelve years court reporter in the
district court of the second district
of Nebraska will retire at the expira
tion of his present term on January
lst and will in the future look after
his private business interests.
Mr. Travis has been one of the
most efficient court reporters in the
state and during his twelve years of
service has made a host of friends
among the members of the bar and
the bench cf the state. He was first
prpointed to this position in 1908
by his father. Judge H. D. Travis
ted has served during his terms of
office as weil as seven years with
Judge James T. Begley. He has
been devoted strictly to the interests

southern climate will benefit him.
The many friends of Mr. Travis will
regret to see him leave this city as
he has a warm host of friends here

greater than brunished gold.

accident occurred at Union, when
Miss Alice Todd, sixteen-year-old

The rifle had been a Christmas

familiar with handling the gun.
As soon as the accident occurre
Dr. C. M.--Swab was called and it
was- found that one of . the small
shot had penetrated just below the

injury although it is thought that
the eye will not sustain any serious
