and Profs. Alex Stoddard and
Roy Coeur of Auburn departed
Saturday for an extended vaca
tion and tour of the Western
states. While gone they will
visit the California summer re
sorts and will go on northward
by steamer into Washington and
Oregon. The trip "will be made
* ' , partially as an outing and for
j , ( the health of some of the mem-
bers'ot the partv. They expect

A meeting of the various com
mittees looking to the Fourth of
July celebration in Auburn was
held Tuesday evening at which
plans were discussed and meth
ods talked over. The committee
on speakers met later on the
same evening and decided to se
cure Congressman E. M. Pollard
as orator of the day. It has
been decided that instead of
importing a band for the occas
ion that Auburn will make use
of its good home talent and em
ploy both the Auburn Cornet

morning. Yoch Michael of
Falls City will move here and
run one of the wagons. Mr.
Bowlsby has gone to North Da
kota , where he expects to take
a homestead. By this deal Mr.
Kroh becomes possessor of the
team of young draft colts , which
are coveted by all admirers of
fine horses : Stella Press.
The annual saloon fight is
now on with all the bitterness
and enmity that such a fight
causes in a small town. The
town board met in regular ses
sion last Friday evening , but as
Saturday was a legal holiday
nothing was done and the board
adjourned to meet last Monday
evening , when last night was
set for the time to hear the re
monstrances. Attorney Mcln-
inch ot Auburn will represent
the temperance people and
Frank Eeavis of Falls City the
license people. The saloons
- have been closed the past four
days and the meeting last night
will determine whether or not
they will be allowed to open.

While in the field inspecting
the condition of his conn , last
Friday morning , Emile Stoehr ,
who lives two miles southeast
of Johnson , was taken with an
epipletic attack , superinduced
it is thought by the bad out'
look for his crop. He fell to
the ground and died in great
agony , his body being found nol
long afterward. The deceased
was an aged man and leaves his
wife and several children , mosl
of whom are grown. He was E
man of modest demeanor ant
fine character and owned eightj
acres of land on which he lived
Last Thursday night some o
those who were out at a lat <
hour , when the storm was ii
progress heard a roaring soum
in the air as though a cycloni
was in progress. Guy Souden
was one of those who heard tin
noise. Between the lightnin {
Hashes as he looked in the side
he could see a cyclone pass eve
the city. It was quite high bu
its shape could be determinei
and there was no mistake as to
what it was. A number of per
sons remarked at the roaring
sound next morning and at Tal-
mage the paper made mention
of it. NemahaCobnty Republi

Dick Horn and family had
quite a serious runaway while
returning to Auburn from Brock
Saturday night. The tongue of
the spring wagon came down
and the ponies which are rather
wild became badly frightened
and ran away upsetting the rig
and throwing everyone out.
Mrs. Horn was quite seriously
hurt and one child , a little girl
about two years old , received a
bad cut in the face requiring
eleven stitches to close the
wound. The other children , Mr ,
Horn and Virgil Green who was
with them , escaped with bad
bruises and the baby , but a lew
months old was not hurt at all.
Kathryne Melissa , who gradu
ated at the Falls City high
school , will spend the major
portion of her vacation in Ver-
don. This fall Miss Melizawill
either go to Cotner or the State
university to complete her mus
ical education. She has laith-
fully devoted herself to the
piano and has progressed rapid
ly with her musical studies.
Verdon Vedette ,
Mr. Ratekin went to Falls
! ity with his team two weeks
go and on account of high
vatef could not get back with
he team. In a few days he
tarted for his team but more
am had again spread the Ne-
maha and he had to come back.
Tuesday he went again expect-
ng to be able to cross at Pres-
on. Hiawatha World.
The Little Things.
People who mean well , and
ivouldn't give pain to any living
hing , intentionally , are olten
jiving pain becnuse they are
leedless of the little things.
Yesterday , for instance , a man
went to the athletic festivities
and left his horse tied outside
he grounds for three hours or
ID. It was a fine horse , that
deserved good treatment ; yet
ts head was strapped up by a
ight checkrein so that its nose
pointed skyward , and only a
: iorse can know how much it
uttered. A little twist of the
, vrist would have unhooked the
checkrein , and the horse would
lave been comfortable , but the
man didn't think of it.
A man was walking down
own. He pulled a handkerchief
rom his pocket to mop his fev
ered brow , and his bankbook
came out with it and fell to the
ground. A boy who was todd-
ing along behind picked up the
book , and gave it to the man ,
who put it back in his pocket
with the remark that he didn't
mow he had dropped it. Not a
word of thanks or appreciation.
Perhaps when that boy finds
something else he will keep it ,
having been convinced thai
there is no object in going oul
of one's way to be honest. Boys
and girls are usually sensitive
to a high degree , and appreciate
a word of thanks as much as
they feel the absence of it.
Every day in the year people
are doing little things that
wound , or offend , or cause pain
and many of them never Ifnov ,
it , and some of them often won
der why they can't retain friends

Extravagance.
What n. wonderfully extravagant
) eoplo wo nro ! At the recent con-
jresB of governors in Washington ,
) r. I. 0. White , elate geologist of
Vest Virginia , made the statement
, lmt natural gas IB escaping into
.he air from uncontrolled wollB ,
'rom oil wells , from leaking pipe
ines , and many other methods at
lie rate of not lees than ono bil-
ion cubic feet daily , or enough to
upply Atchisou natural as eon-
umers for 500 days. For every
) arrelof oil taken from the ground ,
gas equal to ten times its heating
) o\V5r , is wasted. Five m llion
ons of coal have been taken froin
he ground since coal mining be
gun , and at least an equal amount
ias been left in abandoned mines.
Mie loss , on account of the extra-
'iigant destruction of forests in or-
, er to secure more tillable land ,
caches into the billions , not Ink-
ng into account the washing away
of surface soil , the greater loss by
loads , etc. Look in any family's
) nck yard and you will see evi-
leuces of extravagance. Nine out
of every ten farms visited show
waste in caring for crops , feeding
stock , cariug for machinery , etc.
And it can also be said that in a
majority of business offices you
will find employes who are wasting
ime , as well as the materials they
mndle. Careless train men cause
vrecks , and there is a waste of
jroperty. Owners and lessees of
wildings do not watch for defect-
ivfv flues , defective electric light
wiring , and the accumniatiou of
combustible rubbish and there is a
. .wasting fire , Aichisou Globe.
Wcuk women should try Dr. Snoop's
STight Cure. These soothing , healing ,
intlseptlc suppositories go direct to the
eat of these weaknesses. My "Hook

iblo hints to women , and It is free. Ask

lay questions you wish answered. Dr.
Snoop's flight Cure is sold by all deal
ers.

WAS THROUGH WITH RUM.
iVhen Stuff Steals Away Man's Senses
It Was Time to Quit.
'I'm through with the drink thing
"orevor , " remarked the smooth-fnced
man with the llttlo nub of a cigar lu
that snmo tone 'that the hero uses
down at the Cleveland theater when
ho says : "Yes , I'm goln * away from
hyah forovah ! " The smooth-faced
man was just that positive about It.
"Nope , " ho said , as ho brushed the
ashes off his coat lapel , "tho rum prop
osition leads only to mortification , and
ruin. When a man gets so ho pushes
the bottoii and don't know It when It
comes to a situation Hko that , It's
' .Ime "
"Walt ! " broke in the llltlo chap with
iho Hat-top soft hat. "Just pause and
slip hack up the track about n car
length ! When you tell anything kindly
begin nt the table of contents ; then go
to chapter one , and so on , will yuh ?
You tnlk llko a busted down phone
graph. "
"As I was about to say , " went on
.ho man with the nub of a cigar , just
as if no one had stopped him , "when
' vc got through settling the street rail
way question and n few other matters
of moment that had to bo disposed of
before the bunch broke away last
night , it was lacking just a few rain-
: ites of being 2:30 : o'clock. When I
jot homo I says to myself : 'Why wako
up llttlo wlfey when she needs the
sleep ? '
"Acting on that suggestion , I took
off my shoes Just before I started to
climb tip the stops to our front porch ,
wondering to myself all the tirno how
much of a discount I'd bo able to deduct -
duct from tlio tlmo I came homo when
I spoke of it at the breakfast table
next morning.
"I walked up to the door just as
quietly as a cat and then rang the
doorbell. Yep , I just pressed the
dinky little electric button , and then
I came to. I had my key In my pocket
all the time ! It wasn't moro'n a mln-
ute till my wlfo opened the door and
saw mo standing there , shoes in hand.
"Without going into nay moro details -
tails , Is it any wonder I'm sere on the
stuff that Btonls ' '
away men's senses ?
Cleveland Plain Dealer.
She Saw Her.
"Tho late Clara Uloodgood , " said n
theatrical manager of Chicago , "was
witty as she was talented and beau
tiful. Sometimes , Indeed , her keei
wit carried her rather far.
"I remember once , at a tea at tlu
Auditorium , a remark that the brll
Hant actress made to a socletj
woman.
' "You were nt Bar Harbor , I ho
lleve , in the summer ? ' said the eo
clcty woman.
" 'Yes , ' said the actress.
" 'And did you see much of mj
daughter there ? '
" 'Rather , ' was the answer. 'Slu
wore n bathing suit in the morning
riding bloomers In the afternoon am
low neck at night. "
Don't Be Left Handed.
It has been estimated that abou
ono boy out of 15 is left-handed whci
ho reaches the ago of ten. This Is hi :
mother's fault In not making him nsi
his right hand moro during his baby
hood. In Germany there are school
where the boy Is taught to bo right
handed. Nearly all tools are made fo
right-handed men , and the boy win
grows up left-handed will bo awi
ward.
If ono can use both hands alike h
has an advantage in some things ; bu
it seems as If imturo intended th
right arm to do most of the work.
A WOMAN OF BKAUTY AND ELEGANCE
Is tlie one who doesn't allow defective
tcctli to mar her beauty or her appenr-
ancc of refinement. A womnn who
would be attractive and possess the
charm of elegance has her teeth rcgtt
larly attended by a tlrst-cla&s dentist ,
who can remedy nil defects l > y crown
or brldpc work , and everything per
taining to scientific surgical dentistry ,
