About Good Roads.
People living alOtig the line between -
tween Ohio and Falls City
precincts have been doing some
great work in the matter of securing -
curing better roads. The men
who have done this work are res-
idents of Ohio r rec'nct , whet
they reached the line they kept I
on with thc good work , gradhtg
into Falls City precinct as far as
the Sam Lichty place northwest
of town. They have not only
put in good shape their own road
but a long stretch of road in a
neighboring precinct. It would
be a fine thing if this road could
be properly graded and put in
fine condition clear to the city
limits of Falls City. The actual '
work would probably cost$25 and
the residents of Falls City pre-
cinct could well afford to contrib-
ate this amount in order to have
the good work continued. Good
road building is a matter of reci-
procity. Precinct lines must be
obliterated and each precinct
stand ready to' take up the work
where a neighbor has left off.
Died.
D. Shellenberger died at his
home a half mile west of Stella.
I-Ie came to this vicinity twenty-
one years ago and settled on his
farm on the hill west and over-
looking Stella , and during all
that time had been a sufferer
from an asthmetic and bronchial
trouble. I-Ie leaves a wife and
seven children to mourn his loss
All arc living at or near the home
place , with the exception . of '
Alaurice : , who is post master at 4
Locoridge , Okla.
James hill died at his residence
three miles west of Stella. NIl' :
hill was nearly 72 years of age
and nineteen months ago was up
a tree gathering apples when a
limb broke letting him fall to the
ground when he suffered an in-
jury to the spine which left him
partially paralyzed and from
which attending physicians
he could live but a short time.
However , his rugged constitution
was such that he lived a helplf s
cripple .during the last year and a
half. I-Ie leaves a wife and sex'
oral children.
The india..ns Won.
The base ball game between
the \llls City team and the Neb
raska Indians was played trade
adverse circumstances. T h e
heavy rain had put the diamoni
in bad shape and the continues
threatening weather had its ba '
effect on the size of the crowd
The game was as good as coup
h a v e been expected trade
the circumstances. The Indian !
were in the best of training
while the home , boys have not ye'
worked up to their best condition
The game resulted in a score 0
13 to 0 in favor of the Indians.
