Arrest of Supposed Rape Fiend On last Thursday, Sheriff Williams received a telephone message from Blue Hill, in the north part of Webster coun ty, this state, to arrest one Pearl Wautfles, supposed to be up in Wash ington township, this county, at the home of a brother, and who was wanted on an information charging him with the rape of a 13-year old girl at Blue Hill. Sheriff Williams, accompanied by Walt. McNulty, iir.mediatly started for his bird, but when down near the mill, he ran across his man, who was helping the brother drive a number of cattle to a south county. By a little diplomacy, the Sheriff arrested his man who was possessed of a wicked revolver and precious pair of “knucks,’’ and held him in charge till Friday, when an officer came in on the U, P. and took the suspected man to Blue Ilill. The officer said there was not the least doubt of the fellow's guilt, and lie will undoubtedly get his just deserts. The girl in the case did not at first rejort the ca.e to her father, being threatened i»y the dastard, which accounts for the fellow getting away lor a time Wauffles acknowledged to Sheriff Williams, while in custody, that he had been concerned in several holdups in the past, and had served time, but denied, of course, his guilt in the case at stake. The officer, in taking charge of Wauffles. said, “It is not the first time Pearl, I have had to take you in tow.’’ The arrested m in was between 25 and 30 years of age, apparently, and had all the facial expression of a hardened criminal, and seemed to take his arrest as a matter of cours**. It is a pity state law’s do not prescribe a j cert tin drastic remedy for such fiends. Dr. Jones is on the sick list.

IF YOU BUY a heating stove without a reputation, because it is low priced, and you take it home aud put a fire in it and it does not do the work as you think it ought to, what are you go ing to do? There is trouble ahead, no matter what is done. You know, or, if not, it ean be proved to you, before you take a genuine Round Oak home, that it is absolutely the best of all heoting stoves. It is guaranteed—you are not al lowed to take any chances. We, therefor**, advire our customers that it is economy for them to buy the enuine Round Oak. We know that, tor soft coal, with the new hot blast it makes the finest fire ever seen in a heating stove; that it will — also burn hard coal (with or without magazine) to your per fect satisfaction; also coke or wood, and it will last. How long do you think theoidinary cheap heating stove will stand up? There is a point it will pay you well to look into. Only the genuine has the name “Round Oak” on the / teg. 6 “This is the famous, genuine Round Oak, Fritz—the stove you heard about way over in Germany. It is conceded to lie the best heating stove in the world. It is the most popular stove ever made, and has the largest sale.” A. P. CULLEY, President. * W. F.

We are constantly tempted to look for the sources of individual power to educational opportunities, instead of temperament and inheritance. One's disposition may be one-sided or many sided ; in any case it depends on the temperament and thereby we become ourselves apart from others. It is not easy to trace the predominating points in the character of a domestic, retiring nature without one lias an intimate acquaintance extending over a period of years. For that reason we may not be able to do full justice to the subjects of these short biographies. Juliette Roseberv, who traces descent on the paternal side trom the English House ot Rosebery, was born in 1834 in Hutterdon county, N. J. Her mother belonged to the family of Harrison’s of which William Ilenrv Harrison was its most conspicious member. She was married to John Waite in 1854, and the union was blessed with live sons. In 1880 they moved to Nebraska, where her husband died in 1891. Grandma Waite, as we affectionately call her, came to this village and lives with her son, Wilber. Her simple sincerity and kindly practical nature endear her to neighbors and friends and her energetic temperament keeps her in touch with the actualities of life. She belongs to the generation of pioneer women who knew hardship and privation and were immersed in that great wave ot energy and life that fertilized and humanized the central West, and who in their own worth and way were among the real founders of what was good, strong and indestructable in the foundation of this part of our state. Mother Waite is an earnest church and temperance advocate, ever ready to help the needy and unfortunate. I had much pleasure in looking over a collection of scrap-books she had made, eleven immense volumes, containing in their pasted clippings an epitome of contemporaneous history. In later years her grandchildren will say, in looking up reference to some national historical event: “You will find it in Grandma’s scrap-book,’’ and j they will prove a treasure trove to the student and a legacy worth the keeping to her descendants. This aged mother has had her share of troubles, but she locks them in her own consciousness »nd ever turns a I smiling face to the world, and to the future, and the memories of bygone years that grieve and depress, are buried in the gulf of days that lengthen their »p.»n behind her and she turts her face resolutely toward the sunset, where are garnered the rewards of a lifetime of effort. Here we leave her leeling that when she goes to her home the reward will not be withheld. The Woman's Club has begun another years’ work. Mrs. Main is hostess for Oct. 20th.
