WHI French Badly Hurt
While engaged in moving the Betts
building from the street, last Satur
day, and when near the proposed lo
cation of the building on the Ohlsen
lots in the south part of town Will
French came near losing his life. He
was driving one 6f the teams engaged
in drawing the puilding, when the
double-tree suddenly broke, striking
him about half between the knees
and groin throwing him some thirty
feet. Had the blow been a few inches
higher, or had he been further away
from the doubletrees, the chances
are that his life would have paid the
forfeit. As it is he is laid up at
home with his legs black as ink from
knees to hip and in much pain. Un
less complioations set In, he will
likely recover speedily. It was a
narrow escape.

most interesting events. We have

programs given by the churches, nor
the various social events of the day

enumerate a number, we could not
learn of only in part, hence pass them

EMBEZZLEMENT
IS ALLEGED
RouJ. Holman charged with
• wrongfully using $866 of
Loup City Mill & Light Co’s
money—Agent of Company
At Ansley
IS PENITENTIARY OFFENSE
The lure of getting rich quick was
too great to be resisted by another of
the young men of this county in the
person of Ross J. Holman of Ansley.
Just what the man himself thinks or
what his excuse for his actions may
be, is unknown, however, he is in ful
some sort of a time in the di>tr.ci
court as a warrant has been issued
for his apprehension. The warrant
was issued on the complaint of ihe
Loup City Mill and Light Cnnprny
of Loup City.
The agent of that company was to
Broken Bow the first of the week and
stated that the trouble was the re
sult of Holman acting as the agent
of the company in handling feed and
mill stuff. The agent alleged that
the other had received goods from
them amount of $886 for which he
had made no returns to the company
at all and that he had thus embez
zled that amount of money which
belonged to the company.
Also it is stated that Holman had
made no denial of the money he had
spent but had simply replied when
asked what he had done with the
money that lie had spent part of it
to pay the expense of erecting his
new house and that he did not know
what had become of the rest of the
money.
The offense is a serious one and if
proven as charged will result in the
sending of the accused to the pen
itentiary for a term of years the num
ber of which is in the discretion of
the court. Deputy Sheriff C. Penn
went to Ansley Tuesday and arrested
the man.
He promised Mr. Penn that he
would appear in Broken Bow Wed
nesday tand that officer returned
Tuesday night. Holman came up to
to this city Wednesday and asked
that his hearing be continued for
30 days which request was granted.
He has employed Judge Dean as his
attorney and expects to fight the
case.—Custer County Republican.
SHOT FINGER OFF
10 yaar-old Sen of Paul Haisnar
Accidentally Injured
Paul Heisner, Jr., the 10-year-old
son of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Heisner, of
near Rockville, wrs seriously injured
by the accidental discharge of a shot
gun, Monday evening of this week.
Some of the older boys of the family
had neglected to remove the shells
from a shot gun which was kept iu
Mr. Heisner's bedroom. The little
boy found the gun and was playing
with it when it was discharged and
the middle finger of his right hand
was blown off entirely and the bal
ance of the hand considerably lacer
ated. Dr. Dickenson, of Rockville,
was called and amputated the finger
at the knuckle, and the rest of the
hand will be saved. No one was in
the root* with the boy at the time
the accident occurred and it is not
known just how it happened.—Rav

The Sharp divorce case before the

was before the court, mostly being
routine civil cases concerning only
parties directly interested.

LAND plus WATER-GOOD CROPS
LAND minus WATE—FAILURE
The Big Horn Basin and Yellowstone Talley Have an Abun
dance of Water for Irrigation Purposes.
The Government has made ample provision to supply each and every far
mer under it6 canals with sufficient water during the crop growing
season to cover every acre of his farm two feet deep. This is equal to
twelve heavy rains of qwo inches each. Just think what it would have
meant to your community during the crop growing season of 1911 if
your farmers could have turned on twelve two inch rains at will. You
can do this next year and every year thereafter as long as you are far
mer. if you will go with me to Powell, Wyoming, and file on one of the
Government irrigated homesteads, now ready for entry.
