Hastings, Neb., Aug. 5. Dr. King had a rather strange experience last evening, which, while possibly making him the means of saving the life of a little tot of a girl, came very nearly causing him to be instrumental in her death.

Peter Peter son.' ' Hall Damage Overestimated. Edgar, Neb., Aug. 5. As reports come in from the country throughout the hailed district in Clay county it appears that farmers overestimated their damage in many instances. Many of them find on going carefully through their fields that considerable portions have been left untouched by the hail and that some of the earliest corn, even where the hail was severe, will still mature quite a respectable crop. It Is now thought that through out the hailed district nearly, it not quite, half a crop will be harvested. This is quite a different estimate than it was believed possible to give last week. Edgar and vicinity seems to have been in the very center of the storm. Fall Broke His Neck.

Omaha, Neb., Aug. 4. The Populist state nominating convention will be held at Hastings, Wednesday, and, judging from present indications, (hero will be a bitter contest, though the middle-of-the-road men are in a hopeless minority.

It Is intimated by those in a position to know that electors will be named as Bryan men and they will not at tempt to instruct them for, Sewall also. Whether the minority will make a fight for Watson remains to be seen, bnt the leaders hope to bo able to avoid a fight on that issue by ignoring the vice presidential question altogether. Their plan is to nam an electoral commission composed of two Democrats, two free silver Republi cans and four Populists. Calls for Many Dollars. Nebraska City, Neb., Aug. 4. While Attorney John V.
