The funeral of Grandma Smith oc curred last Thursday afternoon from the residence of her son, George VV. Hunter, the services being conducted by Pastor James of the Baptist church, a goodly number paying their last sad respects to the departed and accompany the remains to their final resting place in our Silent City of the dead. Grandma Smith, whose maiden name was Phoebe N. Fowler, was born in Salem, Mass.. Aug. 5, 1811! passing away Sept. 24. 1908. at the ad vanced age of 95 years, 1 month and 19 days. In her early years, she was married to Clias. Hunter, and to this union were born two sons and on* daughter, husband and daughter pre ceding her to the spirit land, Mr H unter’s death occuring in 1864. Shf was married in after years to Mr. Jno Smith, and to them were born thret sons and two daughters. hustrand and one son passing on before. None ol the sons and daughters from a dis tance were able to be present. Tin Northwestern, with the entire com | munity, sympathize with those whc mourn the loss of a loving mother. Mrs. Hans Petersen. Last week we mentioned the sudder death of Mrs. Petersen of Boelus i mother of C. F. Petersen of the Louj City Flouring Mills, which occurrec j last week Wednesday. The saddest thing about tier death was that it occurred while attending the funeral of a frfend at Cairo, when she was siezfd with an attack of paralysis, hei death occurring a few hours later Mrs. Hans Petersen was born ir Stobberup. Denmark. March 16, 1844 and came to America in 1872, and ir November of the same year wat married to Mr. Hans Petersen, tc whom 6 children were born.2 of whotr are living, 2 sons and a daughter She lived in Chicago a few years and later moved to Nebraska, and at the time of her death was living at Boel us The funeral was held last Friday at the M. E. church in Boelus and was largely attended by neighbors and friends. The many friends of de ceased in this and'Howard counties will deeply sympathize with the be reaved husband and children in theii hour of sorrow. CARD OF THANKS. We desire to thank our many friend and also the D. S. S. and Brotherhood who assisted us during the illness and death of our loving wife and mother. IIans Petersen and Children. Narrow Escape. A narrow escape from serious inju ry and possible death occurred on oui main business thoroughfare Tuesday afternoon. While Baby Margaret, the infant daughter of John W. Long, and Baby Hazel, infant daughter ol the editor of this paper, were crossing the street between Conhiser's and Chase’s drug store, and nearly across, the reckless driver of a tw'o-seated carriage going at a brisk trot bore down upon the hapless little tots and in spite of the warnings of horror stricken witnesses, one of the horses threw little Margaret to the ground both right wheel passing over her form while little Hazel just barely missed the other horse's hoofs and' escaped to the sidewalk. The injured little tot was driven hurriedly home, and upon examination by Dr. Longacre was found not to be hurt internally, though badly bruised over the body. Luckily the wheels passed over the lower part of the body instead of over the chest, which might have proved fatal as she is a frail little 4-year-old and the carriage weighs fully 80<i pounds. This should be sufficient warning to drivers of vehicles to be more careful in the future lest fatal ity be the next result of such work. Majestic Demonstration. The demonstration all this week at the Hayhurst-Gallaway Hardware store of the great Majestic stove cook ing exhibition is a most marked suc cess. II. S. Campbell, the demonstra tor, has proved to the entire satis faction of throngs of Loup City and Sherman county ladies that the Ma jestic is the king of cookers, and up to last evening nine of these stoves were sold as a result of the exhibition the following persons being the luckv purchasers: Mrs. Stanley Carter, Mrs. Claus Eggers, Mrs. Llovd Blv, Conger Bros., Mrs. E. E. Tracy, Mrs. W. T. Gibson. Mrs. H. Dietz, Mrs. B. M. Thompson and Mrs. S. Youngland. The exhibition yesterday afternoon wherein a dozen ladies stood on a plank over a cake baked in one of the ranges, mashing the six-layer cake to the thinness of a single layer, after which the cake resumed its former shape immediately upon being re leased from the heft of some fourteen hundred pounds of angelic weight, was witnessed by a large number of people, and tlie cake afterward eaten by the people gave ample evidence that nothing can harm anything cooked upon the perfect Majestic. The demonstration lasts all this week and crowds of people daily eat of the dainty biscuits baked upon the same, to which are added elegent cups oi coffee prepared by the ladies of the Hayhurst and Gallaway households. You should not miss going at least once to see the demonstration. Mrs. Mary A. Gardner returned last week from Shelton,where she had been called by the serious condition of her little grandson as a result of drinking a quantity of lye water. She left the htuie suuerei' somewnatnuprovea,out tire tn-roat still in such a state as tc make the taking of riouriihmenfc very difficult, but the little one is thought to be out of danger. Wedding Bells. On Wednesday evening, September 30, 1908. at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Henry George in this city, occurred the marriage of their son, August George, to Miss Theresa Dolling, the ceremony being performed by Rev. L. C. McEwen in the presence of the immediate familiesand a few intimate friends, after which a bounteous wedding supper was served. The bride is the daughter of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Dolling and has grown to young womanhood in this community, while the groom has resided here for some time. Both young people have a host of friends and will receive the heartvcongratulations and best wishes of alb Baby Goodwin Dead. . Frank Goodwin was called up from Grand Island last Friday on account of the serious illness of his infant daughter. Mrs. Goodwin and baby be ing here at the home of her parents, Mr. and Mrs. M. C.

Mr. Eisner informs us he runs the plant each evening, j tiie necessary three or four hours, at a cost not exceeding ten cents for gasoline, and that the saving in one year over the old cost of lighting will pay for the cost of putting in the plant. Jim and Ashley Conger, Frank Foster and Ernie Milburn finished their hunting and fishing up on the j lakes, our boys returning Friday night. They brought us some juicv samples of their fishing in the shape of a nice mess of bull heads. The Conger boys returned by wagon, but Mr. Foster visited a day at Ord and bringing his wife and baby home from there by train.
