say : "We understand you will

etc. Well , Messrs. Nye & .Buch-
an'n , early this spring we did
have visions of waxing wealthy
from the sale of stock , but that
was when we put nice , fresh eggs
in the incubator. which was not ,
however , enjoving good health-
or something = -and on1 ' v thirty
birds materialized whe'n there
should i.ave been over four
hundred chirpers ; , hence it wil1
not be convenient for us to
consign several car loads to the
South Omaha firm , a fact which
we very much regret.
A serious smash-up by a runaway -
away horse was narrowly averted
last Saturday by the coolness of
Miss Faith Gutterson , a graduate

this year. She , in company wilh
\ \ ill Martin , was out riding and
while coming down a hill on the
north side the hold-back straps
gave away and the bug-g ) ' crowded -
'
ed against the horse which at
once-started to run. Fortunately i
Miss G. , held the lincs as Mr. i i
Martin was thrown from the
vehicle. and she guided the
animal in the middle of the rOiul
although running at it best. It
finally reduced speed and was I
driven into a vacant lot and iI i I
stopped. Both tugs had become
unhooked and during the run
Miss GutterSotl had pulled the
buggy by the lines. Mr. Martin
was not injured by the fall and
the lady's miraculous escape was
due to her bravery and self-
possession.

DEATH REMOVES TWO.
Two Young Peollo Pnll AWI\Y Within
Two Houra or El\ch Other.
ATlIIt\--8wICK-Sunday morning -
ing , June 3 , 190(1 , Elijah Howard
Athey , and AHa SWick died at
Gates , twentY-miles north of
Brol < en Bow. 1\hss Swicl ( who
was 14 years old was taken sick
last W edne3dav noon an.t Howard
Athey was t kcn sick on the
following Frida.y noon.
'rhe morning following the
day of taking sick each became
unconscious and remained so until -
til their death.
They both had the same s'm1 > -
toms , severe vomiting and re-
maincd in great agony until
death relieved them.
When taken sick both were at
the home : of Stillman Gatcs , but
Miss Swick was takcn home.
IIoward Athey was farming
the Gates place and Miss Swick ,
who livcd close by went over to
. help with the house work as her
. grandmother wa sick.
. That they atc something that
I poisoncd them is g"cnerall ) ' con-
cecded. ' 1 hey eat of canned
corn and pickels either of which
may have containcd the poison.
Three doctors wcre called ,
Wamsley , of West Union , l'-ence- '
maker , of Sargent , and .Penning-
ton , of Broken Bow. The two
former pronounced it poison , but
nci ther were able to relieve the
patients. Dr. Pennington held
that it was spinal trouble.
cerebrospinal meningitis.
'l'he pickels of which they had
been eating were preserved in
vinegar made of acid.
The theory of the oison froUl
eating the pickels is more generally -
ally believcd as both vomited
pici < cls , but when Dr. Penning-
ton saw them they were not
vomiting but wer in great
agony.
Miss Swick was tal < en sick two
days before Athey and died about
two hours before he died , at 7:40 :
a. m. lIe was the son of Mr.
and Mrs.v. . n. Athey of this
city and had grown to manhood
in thc county. He with his
parents had been residents of the
county 24 years. He was highly
rcspected by all who knew him.
His remains were brought to the
city Monday and the funeral held
Tuesday at 2:30 : in the M. E.
church. Hev. Chamberlain
preached the sermon. His remains -
mains were laid to rest in the
Broken Bow cemetery. He
leavcs parents , five brothers nd
one sister to mourn his death.
Miss Swick was the daughter
of Mr. and Mrs. Oliver Swick of
Gates , and was highly esteemed
by all who Imew her. She was
buried in the Gates cemetery
Monday. Rcv. Mitchell , pastor
of thc Presbyterian church of
this city preached the f-1 eral.
