Ohio, paper Ten-Year-Old Boy Has finger Mashed The little 10-year-oid son of W. Jung last Wednesday in some manner mashed the fore finger of his right hand at the first joint, pulling the nail from that digit. Dr. Main was called and attended the littte fellow who will escape without amputation, though the finger was put in very bad shape. Threshing Machine Destroyed by Fire Last Thursday the steam thresher owned by Pete Lewandowski, some few miles northeast of Loup City, was destroyed by fire.' Just how the fire started is not known. The first noticed was a blaze under the machine, which ignited and burned the thresher before it could be put out. Pete left Saturday morning eastward to secure a new machine. The loss will be upwards of sev eral hundred dollars, covered by a little over one hundred dollars of insurance. Bloomer Boy Will Eat Standing a Few Days Last Wednesday evening while the Bloomer boy-girl aggregation was enroute from Rockville to Arcadia on the train to play ball, one of the boy portion of the ag gregation plumped down in a seat covered with glass from a broken window, seriously interfering with his convenience in using his pos terior anatomy for a few days. One of our physicians was advised to meet the train at the depot in Loup City &s/ the train passed through and pick the bits of broken glass from his seat of intelligence, which was successfully done and the Bloomer passed on his way. The Town’s Representative Have you ever thought how thoroughly representative a news paper is of its home town? A newspaper is the only home institution that travels around tc distant cities. Buildings and streets cannot be seen unless one visits a place. The newspaper goes as far as the mails. The home newspaper furnishes a means by which distant people gain an idea of the place where i is published. If a Newspaper i; newsy and clean typographically I and has liberal advertising, every man from Los Angeles to the At lantic who sees it gets the idea [ that the town is native. * i People have no idea how news ' papers circulate away from their j home town, says the Meridan (Conn.) Journal. Every publisher has a considerable list of subscrib ers who formerly lived where it is published, or are interested in the place for business reasons. And people send away many papers. If you want your town to cut a good fignre before the world, sub scribe for the home paper, and advertise as much as your business will fairly warrant. Aren’t You Glad It Wasn’t Yon? Rain and accompanied wind storms are all right in their place, but when good people are placed in them, not by their own volition, and gain the experience of one of our physicians and his good wife, as was the case one day last week, they fail to be a thing of beauty and a joy forever. During the big storm of last Tuesday, the alo.esaid doctor and his better half, attempted to return to town from a call in the country, only to be caught in their auto just this jsiie of the west bridge, their | horseless carriage taking to the i ditch and failing to respond to j their desire to get home and out i of the elements then raging. Abandoning the auto, they trapsed through the mud and rain to the home of Will Engle* in the west ' end of town only to find the doors and windows open, no one at home and the rain flooding the floors. Entering, the doctors : wife shooed the water to the out I side, closed up the house properly and then, being drenched through j and through found some dr%y ! clothing, and the rain refusing to quit business resumed their home . | ward way feeling and evidently looking anyway but prepared for , a society function. However, in , spite of the inconvenience they s had passed through, no ills result . ed, and they are able to ascribe , their troubles as one of the inci dents of a doctor’s life, ! i-ien Stm Ahead. , rite iien lifted up her voice. ‘‘They -<ay unscramble an omelet,” she cried, bat I'd like to see them uncackle a a cafifle.” * Bryan’s Inadequate Pay S. E. Kiser, in Chicago Inter-Ocean Poor Br.van complains that he can't get along on $33 a day He sings a very disconsolate song About his inadequate pay; He dosen't smoke and he dosen't drink, He's a dutiful Cristian mr.n. Oh, where does his mney go, do you think? Please make it clear, if you can. He gets twelve thovsand a year, and yet His salary's far too small; He says he’s afraid he must run in debt— Oh, what does he do with it till ? He finds he must lecture to make ends meet. He is singing a doleful song: His children are few and his ways are discreet ^ There is certainly something wrong. Consider the case of Pereival Parr, Who is living next door to me. He has a six-cylinder touring car, And his habits are somewhat five; He belongs to clubs, five or six. at least And he and his well-dressed wife Aro inclined to rollick and revel and feast— They are leading the glad, gay life. And Pereival Parr has an income which May amount to say, sixty a week: He indulges in all the pleasures the rich The rich aiv inclined to seek; No sign of worry distorts his face. No troubles weigh on his mind Nor is his case an exceptional case, The country's full of his kindv He orders wine, he smokes good cigars. And he seems to be free from care; We are all acquainted with Pereival Parrs. They are “going it" everywhere. So, what is the matter with William .T. With his $12,OCX* a year? Why, the matter's as clear as the light of day; He isn’t a financier. Harry K. Thaw Escapes from Prison Harry Thaw, the notorious New York murderer of Stanford White and husband of the equally noto rious Evelyn Thaw, and who was sentenced to life imprisonment in Matteawan hospital for the crimi nally insane, made his escape last Sunday morning at 7:45 in a big touring car and is supposed to be now on the ocean bound for for eign countries. Supposed confed erates passed the asylum just as the guard opened the gate for the milkman to drive in and Thaw, who had the run of the grounds as a “trusty,” and had evidently arose early and dressed for the es cape, dashed through the open way and into the car, which whizzed out of sight before the guard could give the alarm. It was an admirably planned getaway. It is very probable the authorities will never get him again. How* ever, many of the Thaw millions have been dissipated up to this last contretemps to justice. A. N. Cook Suffers Broken Ankle Bone During the big storm of last week, while A. N. Cook of this city was driving in a buggy near Comstock he was thrown out, bad ly spraining one ankle and frac turing one of the bones in that useful member of the body. Dr. Bowman was called and reduced the fracture and A. N. is getting along finely. Grand Island Blaze Fireman Electrocuted A fireman named Tony Fleischer was electrocuted and $70,000 worth of property detroy ed by fire at Grand Island last Sunday, and which at one time threatened to traverse the heart of the rail road section and cut a wide path path through the city. The heat of the flames from a livery stable melted a wire of the electric com pany charged with 2,300 volts, dropped down on the fireman, coming in, contact with the nozzle, blue flames shooting from the noz as from a fountain, and the fire man fell with the nozzle under him and when pulled away life was found extinct. f THE IDEAL 1 When Looking For a Squae Meal Drop In At The IDEAL also for a Good Lunch We also carry a Full Line of Bread and Pastry Goods and also send Bread by parcel post.

Mildred Gallaham Meets With Accident Last week Wednesday, while little Mildred Callaham, who, with her mother, Mi's. Gay Callaham, is visiting here, was out spending a few days with her uncle, Ed Angier, in Webster township, was attorn]tting to get down from a seat on the binder, she in some way slipped, striking her right knee on the sickle guard cutting the flesh from the knee upwards on both sides some six inches, lay ing the knee cap open.

Chris Domgard Has Badly Mashed Finger While helping in the work at the new laundry last week, Chris Domgard caught the forefinger of one hand in the ironer. mashing the joint of that digit to a fare-you well. so to speak. It is thought the finger may be saved without amputation, but Chris is having a time with it all the same. Fingers Mashed in a Hay Stacker While Frank Kowalewski was working with a hay stacker last Thursday, he had the three last fingers on one hand badly crushed. He came in to see Dr. Bowman, who attended the injured man and he is getting along as well as the nature of the case will allow.
