NEBRASKA LAND MARKS
* Land Marks That Will Interest Ne
braska People
In the eastern part of Pawnee
! c< tv are >om old land marks
1 \v ch are of inter* si to all true
N iraskans.
(Tie nt th As*• ,an*i marks is tin*;
fro i Table 1 It>va re
c iv* d it-, name. This rock is
h . ated about two miles from
th present location of the
t* n. The rock as it stands
n ■ . is about tift*en feet high
'and lias about the same diame
ter at its base. Portlier I y an
other rock rested upon this one,
which resembled a table, hence
the name. Being composed of
sandstone, the erosion of many!
years and perhaps centuries, 1
ha-caused it to entirely disap
pear. The lower rock is com-!
posed of the same material so
that it is gradually going the
way of its predecessor.
Tradition has it that the sav
ages who roamed this region*
years ago, used this rock for ai
table, which is not improbable, I
for from the top we get an ex
cellent view of the Nemaha val
ley for quite a distance and the
approach of an enemy could
easily be seen.
Around this rock toward the
north, are the fatuous caves, in
| whjch the Indians cooked their
{meals, fought with their ene
; imes and when all was quiet, it
i was here they smoked their
l
peace pipes.
The most famous of all these
land marks Is a little east and
i across the river from the rock
and caves, ft is the famous
Blacklaw mill. It is said to be
the tirst milt to grind ttour in
Nebraska.
The mill has not been used
I since Blacklaw was shot. Su
perstitious people say that
Blacklaw’s ghost still visits the
old mill at the mystic hour of
darkness.
The town of Table Rock tirst
started around this mill. Be
cause of the overflowing of the
Nemaha river, the town was
moved farther west across the
river. For the same reason
they nere again forced to move.
This time ttie city was moved to
its present site on the hill,where
it could be destroyed by floods
no more. .1. G. Dodds.
Dislocated Shoulder
Mrs. H. E. Boyd of Humboldt,
has been suffering this week from
a dislocated shoulder sustained in
a peculiar manner. In putting
on her jacket about two weeks
ago, she ihrew her arm back far
enough to cause a sharp pain, of
which “she thought little at the
time The member continued to
give her trouble until last Friday
evening, when a medical examin
ation revealed a dislocation of
the bone as stated It was re
stored to place and the patient
will doubtless soon be fully re
covered from her unpleasant c.\
oerience.—Humboldt Leader
Wins First Place
Miss -Jessie Draper is continu
ing her enviable record made ;
while a student of the Humboldt |
high school, and on last Friday
evening was successful in winning j
first place in an oratorical contest
at the Grand Island college, which |
institution she has been attending
the past year, the contest being
given to determine who should!
represent the college at the state
contest at Crete on April 16th.
M iss Draper will, therefore repre
sent Grand Island at this time.
Humboldt friends are pleased to
learn of her success. Standard.
