flL J. Smiley has the logs out with
Which to build a new house on his home-

From the Rushville Standard it is
.earned that William UphofT had the
taisfortune to fall from a scaffold on
Which he and several others were stand
ing while engaged in shingling a barn
nd struck the ground with such force
s to break one of his arms in several
ylaees. ' Mr, Uphoil' was formerly a res-
Went of -Sioux county and his friends
Vvill regret that such misfortune has
Wallet) him.
f-An error was made in the statement
Ho the effect that a- party of Seandinav
Hans had leased twenty-four sections of
School land in the south part of Sioux
county. But twenty-three, sections of
.and were secured by those people as one
ection for which thtjy had made appl
"CatiOn had been leased by another party.
tt is quite likely that much of the gov
ernment land in that part of the county
Will soon be filed on for th ise people do

tart it but take all therein to be had.
ft will not be long until lliure will be
4juite a settlement there.
The particulars of the fate of Rev.
William Wilson, brother of Robert
Xilson, as near as can be obtained are
Hihat he started from Ham's Forks and
tittered Pomroy's basin. This is a terrible
Worm center and he was caught there in
fearful storm. On the night of Dec.
? tt was 40 below -zero and next day it
Was still colder. Mr. Wilson encounter
ted -deep snow -and had to leave his cart
Vni trunk -and later he abandoned his
.horses and taking his bed he wandered
(koroas the valley. He found a little
Shelter in -a gulch and made his bed
' tiheie. After the storm .passed he secur
, ed one of his horses and started back and
Matched a shepherds cabin Where he is
wqpnosed to -have stayed awhile. Here
Ihe-made a pair f snow shoes and at
tempted to waob a place -of shelter but
before he succeeded he was overcome by
cold and exhaustion and sank down and
4ied. As soon as the weather would -ad-j

body fend after 40 days he was success

flllinoiSi where his .parents reside, for
iburial. All his :papers and quite an

" A hail storm struck Sherman coun
ty last week and destroyed the entire
crop on a strip ot territory six miles
wide and the entire length of the county.
Considerable damage was done besides
the destruction of the crops.,
A storm struck the farm of County
Treasurer Gayhart one day last week
in the nature of a tornado. It unroofed
some of his sheds and twisted his wind
mill up pretty badly and then went off
across a field, mowing a path as it went.
During the past week a good deal of
rain has fallen in this county. It has
been very poorly distributed and as a
result some parts have had all the rain
they needed while others have been
somewhat slighted. So far as can be
learned there is no part of the county
which has not received some moisture
within the past few days and now that it
has got started rain is likely to come
quite frequently and plentifully.
When the editor of this paper came
do n to the office on tle morning of the
4th visions of a glorious time flitted
across his mind for Flacked up by the
door were three kegs built expressly to
hold a certain amber fluid said to drive
dull care away. But the dream soon
vanished for on examination it was
found that every keg had been drained
of the last drop it had contained before
they were placed by this office. It is
strange how some people delight in be
ing cruel.
foTlcwl
he hail which accompanied the rain
last Tuesday was the most destruc
tive that has visited this section of
country for years. The rain did much
good but the hail did considerable dam
age. Among the worst sufferers are B.
8irwasjoji,hi .grain mid 150
chickens; Hels fcngbret and Henry uovey
were used pretty badly, as most of their
crops were badly beaten down; E. E.
Livermore was also hailed out of almost
everything in the crop line; George
Walker mourns the loss of his potatoes
and cabbage and others sunered more
or less damage. It may be that local
ities from which no report has been re
ceived were not hailed on at all.
Most of the people from here went to
Plimpson s grove to celebrate on Tues
day. A short program was rendered and
dinner served, shortly after which a rain
and liail storm came up and put a stop
to the fun. Some of the teams got
away and others kept the owners busy
to control them. No one was hfct ex
cept Guy Hough, who had his arm in
jured in attempting to catch one of his
horses. J. lie trees protected the people
to a great extent anil tne storm soon
passed. Mrs. G. E. Lunsford and the
children were on their way home and
the storm struck them on the open
prairie and they were considerably cut
ami bruised by tne hail. Taken as i
whole the picnicers escaped very luckily
