with her good mother is touring the
Pacific coast, written under date of
August 4th, and who were at Seattle
at that time, advises us that they
had finished there and were to start
the following Monday (the Ilth) for
Milton, Oregon, on their homeward
journey. She said, in part: “We
have enjoyed the Northwestern so
much. We could hardly wait until
we got t& Seattle and to my sisters to
read it. I think I appreciated it
more than ever before, as it seemed
so long since we had seen aDy one or
beard from home. We are having a
lovely time and seeing lots of sights.
Hope you are all well and standing
the intense heat back there. It is
quite cool here. Thanks for being so
thoughtful to send the paper. I did
not know I would appreciate it so
much.”
Nearly 2-Inch Rain
' Bad Electric Storm
A heavy rain of 1 92-100th inches
visited Loup City, Tuesday evening
about 0 o’clock, accompanied by a
iieavy cannonading and pyrotechnic
display, piaying havoc with the elec
tric and telephone systems. One bolt
of heavens-controlied fluid put the
electric lights out at the editorial
home, and caused the editor to have
seventeen kinds of fits when his little
daughter Hazel received a shock from
the bolt, being burned slightly above
the forehead, leaving the mother and
daughter with bad headaches and the
editor and Master Duane in a state of
daze over said event. However, no
serious results followed and all is
well. But, believe us, it was some
fortunate experience, just the same.
Several similar experiences have
been reported to us, with alike fortu
nate outcome.

Guardians Appointed for
the Szydzik Children
The seven children of Michael Szy
dzik, who was killed several years ago
by lightning, and of his widow, Roza
lia Szydzik Derdowski, who died a
few weeks ago, were all brought be
fore County J udge Smith and R. H.
Mathew, attorney for the estates, last
Saturday, for the purpose of having
a guardian appointed and looking
toward the finding of good, perma
nent homes for the children. Stephen
S. Polski of Ashton was selected by
the relatives as guardian, after which
various brothers and sisters of Mr.
and Mrs. Szy dzik, deceased, applied
for the temporary custody of the chil
dren, which was awarded as follows:
Aloizi to John Szydzik.
Edmund to Anton Szydzik.
Mary to Susie Otiewski Zaworski.
Michael to Ignac Januelwicz.
John to John Rewolinski.
Harry to Wenzel Rewolinski.
Quite an active contest developed
over Leon Szydzik. aged 13, as Joseph
Syzdzik, an uncle, and Mrs. Frank
Cnilewski, both wished to take him.
Both are of good families and so the
judge has taken the case of this child
under advisement and tbe boy will be
left at tbe Joe Szydzik place thirty
days and at Frank Chilewski’s place
thirty days, after which time more
evidence will be taken with a view to
securing the boy the best permanent
home. Most of the children were
taken by their god-parents, and Jit
speaks well for Snerman county, and
tnese children in particular, that it
is easy to find good homes for such a
large family of young children.

The following officers were installed
at the last .meeting of the Encamp
ment:
Chief Patriarch—T. R. Lay.
Senior Warden—John Foy.

ular young people, at the M. E.
church at 10 o’clock on said morning.
We offer our warmest pre-nuptial
congratulations.
