A Gigantic
Power Plant
—
AbouLfifteen prominent Grand
Island business men made a trip
to the Loup river near the town
of Boelus to inspect the work that
is being done on the big electric
power project, when completed by
November next will deliver into
Grand Island between three and
four thousand horse power of
electJtjcity, \fhich, will be sold at
i a povv'er rate of half that now paid
by users of steam, according to
I the Lincoln Daily Star.
A part of the canal, which is to
be three miles long has already
been dug and a big dredge will be
on the ground during the present
week. The big dam 2,100 feet
long across the river will not be
built until next spring. A fter go
ing over the work at the head of
the canal, the party drove along
the proposed course of the canal,
some three miles distance, where
it again empties into the Loup.
Here is a sheer drop of thirty
six. feet into the river and nearby
is the site for the power house.
From this point to Grand Island
is twenty-seven miles and the
transmission line will be built into
that city in the early spring. The
whole project is being financed by
eastern capital, Mr. Sunny of
Chicago, being one of the princi
pal stockholders in1 the Imdertak
ing.
$otor Car Factory
in Action Seen Here
Packed to the point of standing
room and after great crowds have
been turned away, the Opera
House was the scene of a com
plete automobile factory in action
Thursday night.
The complete process of build*
ing the famous Maxwell “25”
from raw material to the finished
car was shown and explained.
Beginning at the steel mills,
showing the preparation of raw
stock, the testing in the chemical
laboratories, then the foundry and
forge shoos, and the machining of
the parts were shown in detail.
Possibly one of the most inter
esting features is the final assem
bly of the car and the different
road testing put into practice by
this Company.
At no time did the interest of
the audience wane and the pic
tures were cleverly explained byi
j an expert from the factory, who
was thoroughly familiar with
the subject and proved to be an
interesting speaker.
By illustrating and explaining
the operations and manufacture it
is easily seen how some of
the industries of the United
States have risen to the
point where it is possible to
give quality, refinement and finish
at low cost.
As an attraction, a travelogue
feature was added which took up
one thousand feet of film.
California in all her beauty and
splendor, the virgin forests of the
Cascades in Washington and Ore
gon, and the now famous drive of
“Wild Bill” Turner in his Max
well “25” where he broke the
world’s record, were shown.
Tiie Maxwell Agents through
out the country have entertained
in a similiar way a short time ago
but the new features in the films
as shown here Thursday night
have certainly added to a great
degree to the educational value of
tills work.

What the Country
Cousin Did
A city man recently visited his
“country cousin.” The man from
the city wishing to explain the joy
of metropolitan life, said: We
have certainly been having fun
the last few days. Thursday wc
autoed to the country club and
golfed until dark, then trollied
back to own and danced until
morning.” The country cousin
not to be stumped in the least, so
began telling some of the simple
life: “We have had pretty good
times here, too. One day we bug
gied out to Uucle Ned’s and went
out to the back lot, where we
baseballed all that afternoon. In
the evening we sneaked up into
attic and pokered until morning.”
A sturdy old farmer who was
listening, not to be outdone, took
up the conversation at this point
and said: “I was having some fun
about that time myself, I muled
to the com field and gee hawed
until sundown then I suppered till
dark, piped until 9 o’clock, after
which I bedsteaded until the clock
lived, after which I breakfasted
until it was time to go muling
again.”
Onde Tom’s
Cabin Coming
The teachers in the schools, the
preachers in their pulpits, the
press and in fact every right
minded citizen endorses and en
courages the attendance to see
Uncle Tom’s cabin. Nothing is
more discouraging however, than
to see the false and cut versions
as given by many so-called Uncle
Tom’s Cabin Companies who do
not even try to give a satisfactory
performance. For nearly a quar
ter of a century the Terry’s Big
Uncle Tom’s Cabin Company has
been the monarch of them all.
This company uses the G. L.
Aiken version which is acknow
leged to be the only true repre
sentation of the author’s story.
This version is not used by other
companies on amount of scenery
required and the large cast. This
company carries the best actors,
Cuban bloodhounds, and every
thing necessary to give a worthy
presentation at Harriet Boer her
i
Stowe’s wonderful story of slav
ery days. At the Opera house
Saturday, November 28.
Telegram Case
Decision Rendered
The case of the Telegram Co.
vs. Anto M. Weidner was decided
in district court at Columbus last
week in favor of the plaintiff. The
case was a suit for $2.35 due the
plaintiff on subscription. Defend
ant had subscribed for the Col
umbus Telegram. When the year
was up, the publisher continued
to send the paper, as was their
custom and as is the custom of
most country papers. The defend
ant Weidner continued to re
ceive the paper for a year and
seven months, then refused it. He
was immediately sent a statement
of account and refused to pay.
Suit was started and won by the
plaintiff. Defendant appealed to
the dislrict court and the matter
has dragged along for three years,
finally being settled in flavor of
the plaintiff, and the defendant
will have to pay the $2.35 sub
scription and a lot of costs. There
has been a belief, which is erron
eous, that newspaper subscriptions
cannot be collected. If a man con
tinues to take the paper he will
have to pay if the neeessary legal
steps are taken and he is good for
the amount.
Will SaveFifty
Per Cent of Lives
A preparation which, it is said,
will stop almost instantly the flow
of blood from a wound, has been
invented by Prof. Theodore Koch
er of Berne, who was awarded the
Nobel prize of surgery in 1912.
and his assistant, Dr. A. Fonce.
The new preparation is called
eoagulen.
It is in the form of a powder
and is dissolved in water before
being applied to a wound. The
discoverers of eoagulen have made
a gift of their invention to the
armies in the field and have, sent
large quantities of the powder to
the surgical headquarters of both
the German and French armies.
The discovery is regarded by
medical men here as likely tosa\e
the lives of thousands of soldier-,
since it can be applied by untrai:i
ed hands so that the wounded man
himself or his comrade might u-e
the solution.
Who will be the winner of that
beautiful 1915 Maxwell Touring
car? Will it be you or one of
your more ambitious friends?
