With the'great increase of val-

natural that the eastern importers I
will make strenuous efforts to show
, l
at the Nebraska state : fair , Sept. 5

is feeling that this department
will make such a record as to fully
satisfy all visitors , exhibitors and

ent in great numbers.
The contractors have begun/
work on the city water main ,
which comes down the east side of

to be a steel tank instead of a
.
cement twin reservoir as the peo-
ple expected for .their money.
Martin Haley , father of W. E.
Haley , of Valentine , .d ie.d very
suddenly of heart trouble last Sun-
day at the ranch : of A. F. Cum-
bow where he had been visiting
several days. He was a familiar
figure on our streets walking
along with his cane , bent with
years and rheumatic pains and al-
ways proudly wore the relics of
St Patrick's Day on the 17th of
larch : ; and like the famous
"turnip that gre\v and grew be
hind the barn , " Old Martin Hale .y
never did anyone any harm. lIe
came here several several years
ago from Iowa to make his home
with his son William \ . lie was
about 87 years of age.

old friend of the family was in-
vited to the family circle 'at din-
ner. Our home grown lettuce ,
radishes and onions were admit-
ted to be equal if not superior to
those raised.down in the United
States and barring former preju-
dices of this country it was fast
coming to the front and - * " really

better than it used to be or at least
than they had believed to be.r I

Valentine Will Celebrate.
At a meeting called in " Daven

committee was appointed to make
arrangements for .a celebration
, *
July 4th : Ed Clarke E : C. Dav I
enport , W. S. Barker , G. A . "
Chapman , II. E. Lay port , Yal
Nicholon and W. E. Haley. This I
committee is to be a general com- I I
mittee , with power to appoint

District Court. .
District court is in session this ) j
week with Judge Harrington pre-
siding and Jerry Scott . reporter ,
taking the place of his } brother
Charles , who is busy at O'Neill I I
building a home.
Tuesday forenoon was the busy
time for naturalization of German-
American citizens and'other mat-
ters coming before the court. i
Tuesday afternoon the case
against 'Burdick charged wiih I
horse stealing was tried. The
jury failed to convict the defend- I
ant , but Judge Harrington gave
the young a few words of warning
and good advice that ought to
keep him mindful of the narrow
cscapo , vhich is perhaps due most-
ly to his first defense and lack of
desire of neighbors to prosecute. :
Wednesday , the state vs Thomas
J. Brown on charge of cattle steel
ing , or receiving and disposing
stolen cattle was begun.
There a lai4j number of people
in town from different parts of the I
county and especially from Wood
Lake and southwards , Court will
likely continue in session through
out the week as there is suiilcient
business on the docket if cases are
all tried out in court.
A Wonderful , Case !
C. W. Cramer past 70 years of
r
age , . and for the past 17 years a
resident o'f Cherry county , had a
gold : headed ( needle n : : inches , long !
removed from the front part of'
his right leg about half way be-
tween the knee and ankle , three ,
weeks ago yesterday. "
lie has no recollection of com-
ing in contact with a needle that I
could have penetrated his flesh in
the past , and the needle is an old
design of which none have : been
in use to his knowledge for 40
years. Where it got there is a
question. We can only surmise
that it may have penetrated his
leg when he was a child too young
to know Wthat ailed him. ? 1r.
Cramer has suffered ( more or less
from what was thought to be scia-
tic rheumatism in his right leg
for the past 30 years.
.Recently he bumped his leg ]
against the wagon box , , which
caused the needle to penetrate ,
eye foremost , to the outer skin ,
which was very sensitive to the
touch thereafter , and upon con-
sulting Dr. Lewis , he thought it
to be a piece of slivered bone pro-
truding , only covered by the skin , .
and lancing l it , disclosed the head
of the needle and . pulled it out
with forceps.
Mr. : Cramer is still hobbling
around and his leg is very sore ,
I
but we'think he is improving. ,
is the assessor - for Table precinct- f
precinct'l
andis a highly respected , honest
and trustworthy citizen. I I i ,

I Moving Pictures
j Taken Here.
r Scenes in the streets of this city
will not only be taken by a moving
picture camera , but shown on the
circuits of a big film exchange , af-
ter running for several months in
the Ak-Sar-Ben den at Omaha. ,
Tnis is one of the benefits which
the city will receive as a result of
the visit of the Omaha and South
Omaha business men who are
coming one hundred and twenty-
five strong May : 2-j. They hare ar-
ranged with a motion picture
camera operator to accompany
their special train and make pic
I
tures in every town and city
where the light will permit.
The Omaha's have suggested
that if a city has any special ; , drive
or trip representative of Business I
or surroundings of this commun-
ity arrangements should be made
to take the moving , picture opera-
tor to the place [ irame'l lately on
arrival of the train. Some towns
have arranged to have a parade of
school children ; others their fire
department , while a few will have
a live stock parade for the moving :

picture man to take. : r
The Ak-Sar-Ben den in Omaha
is , the big meeting place of the
s
Nebraska boosters. It is where I
they entertain thousands : of visit- i <
ors every summer , beginning in
June and continuing until Octo , I
er. The films made on this , trip I
will be shown constantly at tie.

den and then turned over to an i
exchange which has contracted to I
shovv them in the leading moving ,
picture : theatres'in the. west.
Pictures taken in this city will
thus go around a long circuit ard
thousands will see the scenes re-
produced which will ! not be a bad '
advertisement for any town or
city. I
They will come here in a steel
train of modern equipped Pullman
coaches , and will have a military I
band and a big parade. Valentine
wants every man , woman and
child from the surrounding coun-
try to be in town Monday after-
noon and have your picture taken.
Don't miss it. It will be a sight
worth seeing.
They arrive here at 4:05 : p. m.
St. Nicholas Church.
Services will be held in - - - the-
Catholic church as follows :
The Mission that is to be con-
