prehensive descriptions of the county

Hymeneal.
Married, in Loup City, Neb., at high
noon, Wednesday, Sept. 14.1904, at the
home of the bride’s parents, Mr. and
Mrs Oliver Dubry, Judge Hunter offi
ciating, Mjss Mae Dubry and Mr. Fred
Smith of Benedict. The bride is the
youngest daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Du
bry and is one of our most highly respect
ed young ladies. Mr. Smith comes here
from Benedict, bearing the reputation
of an honest, industrious and steady
young man. As the organ pealed forth
the strains of a wedding march played
by Mrs. Chas. Rowe, the bride and
groom entered the parlor, supported by
Mi.*sRo9a Rowe and Mr, Charles Rowp,
and paused under an arch of lace and
evergreens, constructed by Mr. Dubry.
After the ceremony and congratula
tions, the guests, led by Mr. and Mrs.
Dubry and the newiy wedded pair,
were seated around a table sumptuous
ly filled with the choicest of viands, the
bride presiding over the cake, present
ed by her oldest sister, Mrs. Win. Rowe.
The bride was exquisitely attired in a
costume of silver gr«*y and white, while
the groom wore conventional black.
The presents were numerous and ele
gant. Mr. Smith contemplates build
ing and residing in Loup City. We be
speak for the couple a happy and pros
perous life.
Lazy Koreans.
It Is hardly an exaggeration to say
that the Koreans are the laziest peo
ple on earth. All day long they lie
about the streets smoking their gigan
tic pipes. A native pipe is a six-foot
length of bamboo with a metal bowl,
and is carried tucked Into the neck
band and down the trouser leg. All
work of very nearly every kind is done
by the women, who occupy perhaps
the most degraded position held by
tne sex of any nation. The unfortu
nate female population is collectively
a beast of burden and denied even
the most elementary recognition as
human beings: A Korean girl has no
name; she is merely known as
“Daughter of So-and-so,” her father.
. A Sad Case.
Last Monday morning, a young
man named Marion Zink was taker,
to the hospital for insane at Lin
coln by Sheriff Williams, and was
accompanied by his uncle, A. Zink,
and a brother, Clarence. It was nec
essary to strap his arms to his side
to prevent his doing violence to
those about him. The facts relat
ing to the young man’s dementia are
as follows: It seems that he was
in Denver when he showed first
signs of insanity, a few weeks since,
in attendance on a religious meeting
where he persisted in disturbance.
The police were notified and be was
locked up. He was only able to say
he had an aunt in the city, whose
address be could not give, and to
give his own name. He was later
taken to his aunt and turned loose,
she taking care-of him till his uncle
and brother, Alonzo and John Zink,
accompanied bv their attorney,
Judge Wall, could arrive. They
found the boy badly beaten and
brused, undoubtedly by police or
prison officials, but could not fix the
guilt on the brute or brutes, owing
to the officials shielding one anoth
er. Mr. A. Zink informs us that the
poor boy was beaten over the bead
aDd thrust into a cell bleeding and
covered with blood and left there
without attention, sweltering in his
own gore till morning. When ar
rested he was peaceable, but since
has been more or less violent, and
incohereutly speaks of three men
beating him. He seemed less violent
as the days passed, and the belief is
strong that to his treatment while in
prison is due the violence of his de
mentia, and that kindness will at
least in time make his case a mild
form of insanity, with hopes of ulti
mate recovery.

Everybody
or most everybody, knows
the Round Oak
Stove. We can give you fr
plenty of testimonials as to
its superiority. In its new,
up-to-date dress it is the
handsomest stove on the
market, and in tight fitting,
fine workmanship and “bus -
ness” it excels all others. Do
not mistake other stoves for
the genuine. Look for the
name on the leg, “ROUND
OAK.” It is the stove you
have always heard about.
We will be pleased to explain
it fully. Rpspt. ypurs,
