Alpha Graf, a farmer living northeast of Beatrice, says that his corn averaged about fif ty bushels to the acre. Fort Omaha has been designated as I the location for the U. S. army ba | loon school. Estimates are that about 250 officers and men will be attached j to the post. It will be the instruction station of the United States aviation I corps. A. Jamieson, an old resident of j Beatrice, has received word to the 1 effect that his cousin, P. G. Clark ! Duff, who enlisted in a company ! from Toronto, Canada, had been kill ed in action in a heavy battle on the Somme front.

He was the father of Horace M. Davis, pastmas ter and editor of the Ord Journal. Walter, the 12year-old son of Mr. and Mrs. Umbert Oechin. who resides northeast of Fremont, died from an at tack of lockjaw after suffering for several days. The boy stepped on a nail and tetanus developed. Jerry Kean, a farmer living near ; Stella, lost six horsps within a week, j death being due, it is believpd, to poison from forage All of his horses were afflicted witli the disease, and only one recovered. Burglars entered the hardware store of F. W. Scholz at Duncan and : carried away merchandise amounting I to more than $100. This is the second time within two weeks that the store has been entered. Charles W. Burrows. 23 years old, democrat, who won over G. W. Stein tneyer as representative from Gage county, will undoubtedly be the youngest member of the Nebraska legislature at the session this winter.

Barton, a member of the Sixty-third congress, representing the Fifth Nebraska district, and the republican candidate for election to the same office in competition with Congressman Ashton C. Shallenberger, died suddenly at Grand Island of heart trouble, election day.

The Nebraska-Iowa Fruit Jobbers’ association has been permitted by the interstate commerce commission^ to intervene in the case of the Nebraska state grange against the Union Pa cific, involving the right of producers to sell food stuffs from open car. An animal, claimed by naturalists to be a Canadian lynx, was killed by Fred Leaffler near Lindsay several days ago, and the people in the com munity are at a loss as to where it came from, as no other similar one has ever been seen in this part of the country. The sixty-third wedding anniversary of their marriage was celebrated by Mr. and Mrs. J. C. Corless of Hooper last week. The Masonic lodge at Auburn is contemplating the erecting of a new building for its members. Alex Lundgren, aged 35, was in stantly killed and his 6-year-old son fatally injured when an automobile in which they were riding,'was struck by a Union Pacific passenger train near North Platte. One dollar and fifty-one cents a bushel was paid for a car load of Box Butte county potatoes at Alliance a few days ago, which is said to be the highest price ever paid a farmer for spuds in -history. Two thousand catfish were depos ited in the. Blue river at Wymore a few days ay^ The Union Pacific Railroad Co. filed suit in federal court at Omaha to test the constitutionality of the eight-hour law. recently passed by congress, and known as the Adamson law. Thomas S. Allen, United States district attorney, and four Union Pacific trainmen, representing the different railroad brotherhoods, are made parties defendant. The bill of complaint alleges that the law is un constitutional because it is not a proper regulation of interstate com merce, because it violates the guar antees of the Fifth amendment to the federal constitution, and because it is unworkable as applied to existing con ditions under which the trainmen are operating. The bill of complaint is a printed document of considerable size and contains copies of all the schedules under which the trainmen work. With the opening of the extension to rural route No. 2 in Lincoln county, that route was nearly doubled in length and daily mail service is given to the inland town of Bignell, eleven miles east of North Platte, and to sev enty families in the surrounding terri tory. The route, which was formerly thirty-eight miles long, is now fifty two miles in length. Bignell formerly had a three-times a week mail service from Maxwell, while the farmers of the neighborhood were not served at all. Mrs. S. Aldrich of Elmwood, who writes under the name of Margaret Dean Stevens, has for some time been a contributor to the leading eastern magazines, and some of her stories have been highly commended by some of the best judges of good literature. One of her short stories, “The Light of Day,” appears in the November Woman's Home Companion, and in the October Delineator appears anoth er one, ”The Cat Is On the Mat.” A committee lias been named by the Commercial club of Superior to raise the sum of $30,000 for the pur pose of building a new hotel for the town. A New York financier has of fered $20,000 towards the project, which is expected to cost, when com pleted, about $50,000. Ten thousand dollars has already been subscribed by Superior citizens. Fire destroyed a barn containing four tons of hay, and a corn crib with three hundred bushels of corn, be longing to Ed Stone, who lives two and one-half miles southwest of York. John Jones has been appointed chief of police of North Platte, filling the va cancy caused by the death of H. L. Baker. Jones was formerly night pa trolman. Announcement has been made by the Seventh Day Adventists from the headquarters at Washington, D. C., that members of the church contribu ted $3,407,298.17 for evangelistic pur poses during the last year. The Ad ventists have a large center in Col lege View, near Lincoln, where the leading educational institution in the world is located. Many suggestions are being offered as to what Hastings will do with her brewery after May 1 next year, when state-wide prohibition becomes effect ive. The Commercial club suggests a condensory or cold storage plant, while some of the dry boosters think the beer factory would make a good flour mill. How the University of Nebrasca can co- perate with the Nebraska manu facturers, and be of material assist ance to them, will be explained to tho Nebraska association, by Chancellor Avery at the annual convention in Omaha November 21 and 22. Prospects look very favorable for a new federal building at O'Neill. Con gressman Kinkaid, who resides in the town, has sent word that an appro priation has been made to buy the site. A monster mass meeting was held at Columbus last week to arrange for bringing a canning factory to that city, located at another point, and financing it on a larger scale.

Holdrege has been made a transfer point on the Burlington for high line freight, which means that all freight intended for the high line will be re worked there by a night gang, thereby saving much time on switching and economizing on operating expense by increasing the load. Burlington railroad officials have ordered removed a blockade of two boxcars plaoed in such a way as to prevent the Union Pacific from dou ble-tracking across the former’s right of-way in Hastings. The blockade was placed in August, 1912. Fire originating from oil beneath an automobile undergoing repairs, caused the destruction of a barn owned by Ray Nye at Fremont, entailing a loss estimated at $15,000, with insurance of $5,000.

The Leonard’s church at Madison, one of the finest in Nebraska, recent lv dedicated it’s splendid new pipe organ.
