hope of ever being better when an old gentleman from Bath N Y advised me to take Dodds Kid ney Pills telling me they had cured him of the same disease I had tried so many remedies that I was past hoping and told him so but when he bought me a box of Dodds Kidney Pills and coaxed me to try them I did so just to humor his whim That was the means of saving my life I took that box and half a dozen more Thanks to that old man and Dodds Kidney Pills I am cured If half the world knew what the other half were doing wed be kepi busy turning green with envy and melting with pity w P I NEBRASKA IN GENERAL I X WANTED TO OWN THE FARM t BRIEF NEWS NOTES Why Borchers Boys Murdered Their Stepfather in Cold Blood COLUMBUS Excitement over the disappearance of Gerrard Borchers from his home near Humphrey was greatly increased by the report that the skeleton of a man supposed to be Mr Borchers was found in the re mains of a straw stack on his farm burned since he left home All the flesh except a part of one foot was burned from the bones and one of the bones of the leg was broken Later Herman and August Borch ers two of the three boys who were brought to Columbus by Sheriff Byrnes to answer to the charge of murdering their stepfather Girhard Borchers and cremating his remains in a strawstack at their home near Humphrey are in jail pending pre liminary hearing John the youngest boy was permitted to accompany his uncle George Borchers to the latters homo near Humphrey the officers considering him innocent of real com plicity It is now said that the hoped for ac quisition of the farm prompted Her man the 14-year-old boy to plan the crime and that they believed them selves proprietors of the place is evi denced by the fact that two days af ter the tragedy and before the dis covery of the cremated remains the boys drove to Humphrey and ordered a windmill to be put up on the farm remarking that as their father had disappeared they thought they would fix the place up It has come to light that the two older boys commonly known as step sons of the deceased were in reality the illegitimate offspring of the de ceased mother by a German before her removal from the old country It is also said that the father of the boys was an unprincipled scoundrel and it is thought that the depravity manifested by the boys was inherited from the father Confession of the crime is this That about 9 oclock Friday morning the father was sitting in the kitchen reading a newspaper when Herman slipped in and placing the gun within two feet of his fathers head fired with deadly effect After having done the shooting he proceeded to the barn harnessed a team hitched to a plow and plowed a fire line around an old straw stack which stood about twen ty rods from the house Then he went back to the house fastened a rope around his father and dragged him out into the straw stack Then Herman hitched to the plow and plowed up to the house covering the stains of blood The boy then hitch ed the team to the wagon and got a load of fresh straw and piled it on the body and cremated it wth the ex ception of one foot which was the only portion of the body left IT LOOKS MUCH LIKE FRAUD Land
