Sheriff Williams has received a I petition from over on Clear Creek, protesting against Sunday ball games. We do not see how the sheriff could interfere without complaint tiled, and as one of the petitioners is a justice of the peace, it would seem he had the proper authority within himself. It's a horse on Conger, yet. Some three weeks ago, The Northwest ern published a stray notice of a blind horse taken up by Stewart Con ger, and thereby hangs a tale, horse and all. It seems that somdtime in March Thos. Shettler gave an old blind horse to Ed. Knight. Knight’s boy came after the horse, but in the meantime the equine had strayed away, and the boy returned home minus said horse, but witliont notify ing Mr. Shettler of the sad (?) quest. The animal came to the hospitable stables of Stewart Conger and put up for feed and recreation. Stewart advertised it in The Northwestern and finally Lee Burnett accepted the blind staggers, with the understand ing to pay the advertising bill. He then gave the horse to Jake Ben schoter on the latter’s settlement of all advertising and feed accounts, which the latter generously paid, “unsight and unseen.” Jake then disposed of the four-footed ancient to B. W. Parkhurst, in return therefor receiving another horse, which he sold or traded to J. S. Casada. Park hurst. after seeing what he had, took the beast back to Conger’s comfort able quarters, notified Stewart of the advent of the much transported skel eton to his tender care, where it now rests. In the meantime, Parkhurst replevins the horse traded to Casada, and there the matter rests, with the “horse on Stewart Conger.” Mother Called Home. On Tuesday morning of this week, at 5:30 o’clock, Grandma Long, amidst her surviving sons, daughter and other near relatives, sweetly breathed her last, passing into the great beyond as quietly and painlessly as into the sleep of an innocent babe. Funeral ceremonies were conducted from the home of her son, John W. Long, with whom she has passed the later years of her life, Rev. Wise of the Methodist church conducting the services, and this morning her remains, accompanied by the immediate fami ly and relatives, were taken to the old home at Clarinda, Iowa, there to be deposited by the side of her husband, a son and a daughter, who had passed on before. Grandma Long (Catherine Reid) was born in Pick away county, Ohio, Nov. 17th, 1819; departed this life May 8tli, 1906, at Loup City, Nebraska, aged 86 years, 5 months and 25 days. She was mar ried to Edward Long, Sept. 12tli, 1844. and was the mother of seven children, three of whom survive her, namely, George G.. Ella R., and John Wallace Long. She with her hus band, shortly after their marriage, removed to Page county, Iowa, where she lived after the death of her husband until 1887, when with her surviving children she removed to Loup City, which has been her home till the angel of death summoned her to meet those gone before. From early life she had been a consistent and earnest worker in the Methodist church, finding her chief source of joy and comfort in its devotional services. Grandma Long was one of those self-sacrificing characters, who ever believed it was more blessed to give than to receive. She gave her all to her children, endeavoring to guide their feet in the paths of happiness and peace, and though far past the allotted span of life, her life has been one perpetual blessing to those she loved and to the community in which she lived. Requiescat in peace. The order of Knights of Pythias met at the residence of their es teemed brother. Sir Knight Long, this morning, and acted as escort to the family and remains of the dear mother to the U. P. train which con them on their sad errand. A large concourse of our citizens also assem bled at the depot in kindly memory of the dear old lady. The Northwestern is requested by the bereaved family to tender their heartfelt thanks to all those whose kindness, sympathy and assistance was extended to them during the ill ness and subsequent death of their beloved mother.

Dr. Long has received word that his daughter. Miss Hazel Long, at San Francisco, is nicely recovering from her siege of inflammatory rheumatism, and will soon be able to make her journey to Loup City. And the good doctor is correspondingly elated over the prospect of soon see ing his loved one. A new partnership in the real estate business in Loup City has been formed between Editor E. A. Brown of the Times-Independent and .1. F. Nicoson, with office in the Times editorial rooms. Now will the old firms have to spiel harder than ever, when Ed's gentle, persuasive powers are enlisted in the same cause. We wish the new firm unbounded success. The services at the Presbyterian church last Sunday were of especial interest- Besides the always ex cellent discourses of the pastor, Rev. McEwen. the morning service was enlivened by a glorious duet by Mr. and Mrs. Chas. Leininger, while at the evening service, besides a most difficult, though very sweet anthem by the choir, Messrs. Bert McKinnie and Charlie Minshull gave most ap preciative solos. The Presbyterian services each Sunday are proving a very joy in the church musical lines of our city. • Rockville Items.

In reality it is the most § important part of the whole machine when it comes to satisfactory % work. J The Beater Wheel on the Litchfield Spreader is peculiarly con structed. It is different from other machines, like many other features on this original spreader. It is built for strength, but 4 everything else is not sacrificed. Wa have often wondered why some makers of spreaders give se little attention to this most important part of the machine. It is the part where the least aggravation or un-necessary friction multiplies rapidly by the time it reaches the team. The bars in the Litchfield Beater Wheel are cross pivoted and .] the teeth are square, but have a screwed end so that when they are put in the bars under heavy pressure, they turn once around and it is ' simply impossible to get them out without splitting the wood. No other machine uses this precaution, which prevents the teeth com- 2 ing loose in cold weather when frozen material is handled and other 5 obstructions are encountered. The teeth are extremely long so that . the load is distributed without resting against the bars themselves and for this reason light draft Is the result. These teeth are set so tliat every fraction of the surface of the load is penetrated at each revolution of the wheel, A verv import- rmu. ant point. The arrangement of these teeth is so planned' that the T material is thrown from the center outward, making perfectly even distribution, although the load may be piled higher In the center If any of our customers will compare the long, high carbon teeth of this beater and their arrangement and the method of attachimr 1 them, with any other machine on the market, we will abide bv t e ! results. Come and let us show you. We can do It. We have m « 7 machine to back up every statement. nave t,le i Do not fail to read next week what we have to sav aliom traction drive on this modem Spreader. - a*out fche _TJWI. PEED. \
