DIED.
J. M. Clarkson died Wednesday
afternoon , June ? , 1905 , from
asthma and a complication of dis
eases. The funeral will be held
at the M. E Church at 2:00 : p. m.
Friday *
John M. Clarkson was born in
Lawrence county , Ohio , March 23 ,
1831 and died June 7 , 1905 , aged
71 years , 2 months , and 4 : days.
He was married in Clay county ,
111. , to Mary H. Brainard , August
22 , 1S58. To this union five chil
dren were born , one dying in in
fancy and one about a year ago.
This was more than he could bear
and he began to fail from that
time. He became a member of
the Kugular Missionary Baptist
church in 1S73 and Jived a devoted
Christian life. He was a kind and
loving father and a devoted hus
band. He leaves three children ,
one sister , two brothers and a be
loved companion to mourn his loss.
He was loved by all who knew
him and will be greatly missed by
all his friends and especially by his
beloved wife and children.
James King died yesterday af
ternoon , June 7 , from tuberculosis
of the lungs after a lingering ill
ness of several months. The fun
eral will be held Friday morning
at 10:00 : o'clock from the Catholic
church.
The U. S. weather bureau re
port for the week ending June T ,
1905 , shows the extremes of tem
perature as 75 ° and 40 ° , giving
a range of 35 ° and a mean of
68 ° , the latter compared with the
normal shows a loss of 7 ° . The
precipitation was .92 of an inch ,
.15 above the normal. Winds of
25 to 40 miles per hour occurred
on 4 days of the week. The weath
er has been propitious to all crops.
The report from the whole state
of Nebraska shows favorably for
crop interests. Replanting of
corn progressed rapidly and is a-
bout finished. Some low lands
still too wet. Corn has improved
in condition but the stand is thin
in many fields * Winter wheat
continues in good condition , but
some damage from the Hessian fly
and rust is reported from Seward ,
York , Saline and Filmore counties.
Oats have improved and generally
are growing nicely. Alfalfa is be
ing cut and a heavy crop is being
secured. Potatoes are growing
finely. Pastures and meadows are
in exceptionally good condition ,
The "Valentine Colts" went
down to Ainsworth today to play
ball with the Ainsworth nine. We
wish them success.
A colored man by the name of
Henry Smith was drowned in the
Niobrara river last Saturday after
noon. He was bathing with sev
eral women when the accident
occurred. He was seen to dive
into the water and did not come
up again. The women thought
that he had played a joke on them
and had swam around the bend un
der water. His body was found
some time later quite a distance
down stream , the face and body
being considerable bruised. It
seems that when he dove into the
river he struct a rock which
stunned him , rendering him help
less. He was interred in the ceme
tery southeast of town Monday.
OBITUARY.
Solomon L. Ellis was born Feb.
26 , 1865 , in Keokuk county , Iowa.
The family moved to Kansas and
for awhile Mr. Ellis attended the
Kansas Agricultural College at
Manhattan. Later he went west
and came to Nebraska , settling
near Harrison in Sioux county ,
where he was a highly esteemed
neighbor and citizen. In conver
sation with J. H. Newlin of "The
Harrison Sun" we learned that
Mr. Ellis was as well liked and as
popular there as he has been in ou--
county. He held the office of
county surveyor of Sioux county
and was the nominee for county
commissioner two years ago in this
county , getting nearly every vote
in his neighborhood and running
ahead of his ticket in the county ,
though he made no . effort to get
votes whatever. He was married
Dec. 28 , 1S92 to Miss Ella Mor-
gareidge , next oldest daughter of
Mr. and Mrs. W. D. Morgareidge ,
then living at Simeon Nebr.
Mr. Ellis came to Cherry county
seven years ago and has lived at
Simeon since , during which time
he conducted the Simeon store and
kept the postoffice , and from which
he retired May 1st to go onto his
homestead north of Simeon one
and one-half miles where he had
built a temporary house to live in
until he could build a dwelling
which he was preparing to build
and was surveying the line between
his place and the Hobbs' place
when he was struck down by light
ning , Wednesday afternoon , May
31 , 1905 , his watch stopping at
2:17 : and was partly melted from
the intense heat.
A number of Woodmen of Val
entine lodge , of which Mr. Ellis
was a member , went out to attend
the funeral last Friday and assisted
in conducting the funeral , Rev.
Holsclaw preaching the funeral
sermon in. the yard at the Ellis
home. Neighbors and friends con
gregated from miles around and
seldom have we seen a larger
gathering upon a similar occasion
in our city. Mr. Ellis' mother
and sister , Mrs. Deuel , and L. L.
Wilson , a half-brother , came down
from Harrison to attend the fun
eral.
eral.A
A friend and neighbor has gone
from among us. We won't meet
him again as we have in the past ,
a cheerful man carrying sunshine
with him wherever he went. Quot
ing Judge Walcott in part in a
brief address delivered at the grave
after conducting the Woodmen
ceremonies , "We are all of us bet
ter for having met him and known
him. " His life has not been in
vain though the cruel hand of death
has taken him away from his wife
and five boys , his brothers , sisters
and his aged mother at a time
when it seemed that he was most
needed. His life has truly been
an inspiration to all who have been
associated with him or met him in
his daily walk.
Mr. Ellis provided well for his
family in life. He provided for
them also in case of his death , He
carried § 2,000 insurance in the M.
W. A. and § 1,000 in the New York
Life.
