Narrow Escape From Death of a Iitfll

Attbcbx, Neb., Aug. 5. A fatal acci
dent occurred day before yesterday on
the Missouri Pacific, some six miles
northwest of here. Doctors were called
from here and they bring back the
facts. William Hawkins, a farmer liv
ing in the village, while getting off of
the high side of a box hay rack had
one of his feet caught some way and
he tumbled to the ground, falling on
the end of a pitchfork handle. IIo
had thrown the fork to the ground be
fore starting to get down. The tines
sticking in the ground held the fork
handle upright. The handle was forced
some six inches into the body, passing
through the bladder. , He can not re

CHILD'S NARROW ESCAPE

Over by a Baggy.
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. He had driven several
miles into the country on a profession
al visit, accompanied by a physician
from Fairfield. When within a quar
ter of a mile of the house to which
they were going the horse suddenly
shied at an object lying directly in its
path. The occupants , of the buggy
felt the rear wheel bound over some
thing and were startled to hear the
scream of a child. Getting out they
found a little girl belonging to the
place to which they were going. She
had wandered down the road and be
coming tired had gone to sleep. The
buggy made a slight scalp wound.

The other day at Grand Island a lad

mark to this point. His name, Peter
Peterson, was written on a label, as
also bis destination, and as the boy
could not speak a word of English, he
was transported much like an express
package. His parents in Denmark had
both died and his only relative in the
old country was a brother much
younger than he. He was sent to
Dannebrog, this state, where he will
live with his uncle, Rev. 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.
Sidney, Neb., Aug. 5 Leopold Mack,

loaded wagon and frightened the
horses and in his efforts to bold the

the load, falling upon his head and

PREPARING THE CALLOWS
Sheriff of Douglas County Arranging
All
the Details.
Omaha, Aug. 4. Sheriff McDonald
commenced active preparations yester
day morning for carrying out the man
date of the supreme court in the case
of Claude Hoover, convicted of the mur
der of Samuel DuBois and sentenced
to be hanged on Friday of this week.
The sheriff made arrangements for
the construction of the palisade which
is to enclose the space about the scaf
fold, and the work of erecting the en
gine of death will be commenced in the
morning. .
The sheriff received a note from Gov
ernor Holcomb this morning to the ef
fect that the executive had declined to
interfere with the action of the court.
The question of admitting spectators
to the execution has given the sheriff
considerable annoyance, but plans have
been about completed for regulating
thU matter. . The sheriffs of about
fifteen counties in Nebraska and west
ern Iowa have signified their intention
of being present, and will be admitted
on account of their official position. A
large number of physicians have also
applied for admission, and several will
be allowed to be present. The news
paper representatives will form another
section of the witnesses, and the neces
sary deputy sheriffs will be detailed
for duty. Aside from those enumerated
above, the sheriff says the number ad
mitted will be very small, and he has
not yet determined just who will bo
given tickets of admission. The en
closure about the scaiioid wm e small
and therefore the "umber admitted
must be limited.
NEBRASKA POPS DIVIDED.
Mlddlo-of-the-Boad Hen Promise to
Make a Fight la the Convention.
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.
Leaders of the middle of the road
faction assert that Governor Holcomb
and Senator Allen have entered into a
compact with the Bryan managers by
which they are to deliver the Ne
braska vote to Bryan and Sewell, and
in return Bryan's influence is to be
used to procure a Democratic indorse
ment of the Populist State ticket
They refuse to be bound by such an
agreement. That they are strong
nough to prevent the renomination
of Governor Holcomb no one believes,
hut they announce their intention to
make a fight that will pave the way
for a straight ticket in ease an under
taking should seem practicable.
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.

The new industrial and political song
book.
It contains 150 pages 7x9 inches size.
Splendid new words and new music. Pro
nounced by all incomparably superior to
any book that has yet appeared.
H. E. Taubeneck says of it: "It Is the best
song book yet published. Introduce
it Into every household In the land. Our local
campaign speakers and committees ought to see
Hartford City Arena: "Any glee dub snpplied
with it will command the crowds."
Kockv Mountain Newa: "Best ot anything in
the line that we have seen."
Missouri World: "It tills a long felt want."
Gen. Van Dervoort: "I congratulate yon on
your great work. The whole country will slug
this music.
New York Voice: "A collection ot songs for the
times, with bright, catchy words and good stir
ring music."
The Sledge Hammer: "Every one ot the songs
gem. No chaff in the whole book."
Mdrshfilltown (Iowal PoDUlist: "Should be in
the hands of everyone who wishes to make a hit
during the campaign."
Prof. George D. Hereon: "I believe your book
of songs will be of immeasnrable and divine ser
vice In quickening and pervading the great move
ment tor the nocial change which is manifesting
itself everywhere among the common people. It
will inspire the people with courage and cheer
and fellowship in the great struggle that is be
fore them,"
Prof. W. M. Ross of Indiana, the great solo
singer of "The Van Bennett Nationals Team,"
siiys: "Have taken pains to run through the
work and pronounce it a grand collection ot
words and a high order oi music.
The Farm Field and Fireside says: "It has
been left to Mr. George Howard Gibson to Intro
duce anew tone into the songs of the party, and
to write a series of patriotic songs which are
hardly surpassed by any In our literature for
loftiness of motive and real merit from a literary
point of view, while at the same time they are not
at all lacking in the musical quality which must
necessarily be present before any song tonches
the chord of popularity. They are remarkable
for their fervid patriotism and broad humanity.
In fact, if the People's party rises to the patriotic
level of these songs, we have Uttie doubt of its
ultimate success as a party, 'ine song strike
the whole octave of human sympathy. Spark
ling humor, keen wit and biting sarcasm, as well
as the loftier patriotic themes, are touched In
turn by the talented author."
