There are rules for your behavior asa " a guest which the g"lrl who goes a-vlsltlng will do well to consider , says the September Delineator. Suppose we begin at the very be ginning. You have been asked by letter for a short visit of a week or two. Be sure in answering it to re peat the days for which your hostess has asked you. This is the first rule on your part. Also state in your acceptance the train on which yon arrive and , if. you wish , add the train on which you will depart. .Whether or not you do the latter , never fail to do the former. Don't miss that train or chance your mind and take another one. See that your baggage gets on the train with you. Attend to your baggage checks at the station yourself , unless you are met by a man of the family or a com petent man servant who insists upon taking this duty on himself. It is best to give your checks to the bag gage expressman who comes through the train , pay him and get a receipt. Have the change In your pocketbook - book to pay for the trunk when it arrives at the house. Never borrow the money from some one In the house or let your hostess pay for It. . There Is no intimacy or even relationship between friends that will allow this. From the moment you set foot In the house , whether the visit be for days or weeks , remind yourself over and over that all things In It , from the telephone to the chambermaid , are another person's property , and that you must seek permission for their use. Do not make demands on the ser vants In the house. They have other duties. When they offer their ser vices to you accept them graciously , but do not call the maid to fasten your gown fifteen minutes before din ner is served when she has to wait on the table. Ask the hours of meals and be punctual. Write that in your mind in letters of fire. It makes no difference whether you are hungry or not , at the appointed hour be at the table. Do not bother your hostess by re maining at her sldo nil the time. Lot her go about her household duties or to her room for a brief rest , without following her around. If you are visiting In a house where there are no servants , and where the housework Is done by the family , then you should try In every way to bo of help. It takes quite a little tact to And out whether you are In the way or not , hut you can at least make up your room and put away your clothes. CANDIDATE FOR ADVERTISING. Files for Governor To Boost His Paper. SXknno. | Wash. , Aug. 8. Oscar Nell , editor and publisher of Nya Varl- ilen , of Hulllngham , Wash. , who re cently fllud his declaration I < H candi date for the Republican nomination IIH governor , declares frankly In a leading article In hta journal that It was for the purpose of making a farce of the new primary law. He says ho will not even vote for himself nor ask any of his friends to do so , the chief purpose being to show up what ho considers one of the serious defects of the law , adding : "I want every Scandinavian In the state of Washington to know about myself and my paper , and I know of no better way to accomplish this than to spend $ GO In paying the foe required of a candidate for governor. This means that my name and my business will bo mentioned In practically every newspaper In the state , and I will get nn unlimited amount of adver tising without paying for It. If I can do tills others may do the same , and hero Is where the law is weak. Any patent medicine vender or other per son desiring notoriety can secure it by becoming a candidate. Before any person can become a candidate for office he should bo required to file a petition signed by a certain percentage of the voters. " PRESIDENT PILE HAS DECIDED NOT TO TAKE EUROPEAN TRIP.

Ho seized a horsewhip and was beating them when the women's cries attracted a crowd. Corey was arrested and Jailed , but the mob quick ly formed and broke In. The man was taken to the hlghvay , where ho was forced to run a gauntlet of men with blacksnakes. Many were In favor of lynching him , but the women of the town prevented this , and he was driven down the gulch and warned never to return. His wife and family will be provided for by Terry citizens. The person who has the best furn ished room for the price In the city found it by answering ads. Try a News want ad. SHIPMENTS THROUGH NORFOLK WILL BREAK ALL RECORDS. AND 10,000 , CARS OF CATTLE Northwest Developing As Sheep Rais ing Section 1,000 Cars Will Be Far Beyond Old Figures Cattle Move ment Will Approach Record. The range stock movement Is to play as Important n part In the rail road activities In this section during the next few months as It over has In past years. A heavy movement of stock Is expected , a movement which will exceed that of last year In vol ume. By the middle of this month the range movement will be at Its height. The big rush lasts two months. The cattle shlppllng season means more trains and more train crews. It Is a great period of railroad activ ity. It means added resources to Norfolk and other towns where rail road Interests are Important. The Northwestern has been filling up Its force and Is now running .eighty per cent of the maximum force. Sheep Movement Grows. This will bo a record year for shetSp shipments through Norfolk. The tributary country In the Black Hills territory Is Increasing rapidly In Importance as a sheep raising country. About 1,000 cars of sheep will pass through Norfolk this year , a number never before approached. The sheep movement is already heavy. 10,000 Cars This Season. . The cattle run Is very good. Rail road officials In close touch with the situation estimate that 10,000 cars of cattle will pass through Norfolk this season. To set a new record 10,500 cars would have to be reached. About 400 cars a week are passing through Norfolk just now from the range country. About 350 cars como from the main line , about 50 cars from Dallas , S. D. , on the Bonesteel lino. The main line between Long Pine and Chadron Is furnishing some 50 cars , the Casper line about 100 cars and the Belle Fourcho country about 200 cars. When the rush season Is on be tween GOO and 700 cars loaded with range cattle will pass through Norfolk each week. The range movement sot In about the middle of last month. It will run until the latter part of No vember. Last fall the panic cut the season short , cattle which wore ready for shipment , and some In cases even In cars , being turned back on the range when the bottom fell out of the market. It has been Interesting to note that the movement of cattle through Nor folk has not been perceptibly affected by the South Dakota extensions. MEN TO AID THE ROADS. Nebraska Employes Have Led In Cam paign for Increased Earnings. Chicago , Aug. 8. Railroad men in all parts of the United States are or ganizing to assist the railroads In ob taining an Increase in freight rates. Definite ways and means have not yet been decided upon , but the general scope of the plan includes an ex tensive campaign of education to show that the Interests of the public demand that the roads be allowed to Increase their earnings. It Is also proposed to present their sldo of the case before the interstate commerce commission and before the state rail road commissions whenever an op"- portunity presents Itself. The lead In the movement Is being taken by the recently organized Ne braska State Railway Employes' Pro tective association ana by the Amer ican Protective Association of 'Amer ica , with headquarters at Kansas City , which is now being organized , and which already includes members from thirteen western .states. Members of the Chicago division of the Order of Railway Conductors have already ta ken active steps in the matter and representatives of the other railway brotherhoods are taking an interest in the movement , although it has not yet been officially taken up by any of the latter organizations. The men point out that the ex penses of the railroads have been enormously increased during the late years , while freight rates have been gradually reduced and that matters have now come to the point whore an increase In revenue is Imperative If the railroads are to continue to main tain their property in first class con dition and make needed extensions and Improvements while maintaining the present scale of wages. WILL BUILD SOME DAY. Union Pacific Will Enter Lincoln With a Good Line. Lincoln Journal : Not a great while U Is declared that not a great while ago General Manager Mohler dis cussed construction of the long talked of Omaha-Lincoln line in a manner that indicated ho has no doubts that the road will bo built. When It will be built no one knows now , of course. Mr. Harriman said at Omaha Tues day that the road would begin building again when revenues warrant build ing. ing.M. M. Mohler Is credited with having said that when the road Is built It will be a "standard" line with low grades and double track. The surveys for this line took little account of the natural obstructions In the way of building a ralload , and If the line Is built there Is a feeling that it will be one of the best in the state , con structed in such a manner that much main line traffic will pass over it. Fremont Tribune : The theft of a watch and coat from the Northwest ern round house wan roixirtod to the police. Parties broke into the shop and committed the thoft. The stolen property belongs to Herman Suckland. The watch Is an Elgin movement , sll- verlne case , No. 9731111.

About 300 cars were marked for treat ment In this way. Only steel cars arc being repaired. Somebody lias sold that on cars standing on the ground taxes will not bo so high as on those which are on the track. The Atchlson , Topekn & Santa Fe has opened a new hoHpltnl at I a Junta , Colo. , for the benefit of Its sick and Injured employees. The building Is modern In every respect and has accomodatlons for sixty per sons , being designed to take care of the patients In the territory between Newton , Kan. , and Las Vegas , N. Mex.

No official Informa tion has been given out but It Is gen erally surmised that a water contract was closed and an order will be forth coming from the proper authority de claring Bonesteel to be division point of the great C. & N. W. railroad system. A. R. McDonald , , a baggageman at the Northwestern depot at Rapid City , S .D. , until ten days ago , and since then a fireman , was arrested here to day , charged with rifling suit cases while working at the depot. He de nied his guilt , but some of the stolen property was recovered from him. His parents live nt Creston and he is only twenty-five year old. Walter Werner of a wealthy Boston family , and former depot mall carrier , was arrested , charged with being an ac complice. The value of the stolen property aggregates several hundred dollars. Straw vote Wayne Herald : Six cars of fruit and a car load of beer went into the ditch on the Omaha road near Thurs- ton , Tuesday , caused by spreading of the rails as a result of expansion from the heat. The train was a fast freight from Omaha and was a double header. The first engine passed over the defective spot all right but the second end engine left the rails although it stayed on the ties , the seven cars Immediately behind the engines were sent crashing Into the ditch and the track torn up for a distance of 300 feet. The Sioux City train from Sioux City to Norfolk was over an hour late here as a result of having to wait at Emerson for connection with the de layed train from the south. No one was injured by the freight train wreck. North Plattc Tribune : William Jef- fers , who has been In the service of the Union Pacific for about thirty-five years will be retired August first and receive a pension'from the company. Thirty-five years of faithful , consecu tive work should 'entitle any man tea a respite from labor ; thus allowing him to spend the evening of life In a peaceful , pleasant manner. To Mr. Jeffers Is extended the wish that the remainder of his life may prove such. One of the oldest railroad men in the country in point of service Is George Hough of Bluffs , 111. , a brother of Dayton Hough , who recently visited friends in this city. Mr. Hough has been on the rails , either as brakeman or conductor , for fifty-five years , and it is estimated that he has during that time traveled one and one-half mil lion miles , or sixty times around the earth. Mr. Hough has four sons , and all are following their father's voca tion. Anoka Herald : R. B. Forbes , a member of the village council , and R. S. Scofield , village clerk , left for Norfolk - folk In response to an invitation for a consultation with Northwestern ofll- clals in regard to the location of a freight division at Anoka. The sur veying apparatus Is now hero at the depot and It is said some sllghl changes will be made in the old sur vey , so as lo avoid the removal of the cold storage and an elevator. In order to do this It Is said some con cessions will be asked from the town and that these gentlemen will have an important communication to present to the village board when they re turn from Norfolk. Both of them ad mitted the nature of their trip , but refused tlit Herald any definite Information mation until they learned the wishes of the officials ris to the pub licity of the matter at this time. With the largest business houeo in the county now under construction , n brick yard to start and water works to bo put in , and the enlarging of the yards , building of the round house , etc. , will make Anoka go some for awhile. Hungarian Partridges. Gordon Journal : Wo wish to again call the attention of hunters In regard to these fine game birds. Eight or ten pairs of them wore Introduced Into our county last spring In different places , and several good coveys of them have been seen. All parties are warned not to kill any of these birds as there is a heavy penalty for so doing. Let everyone Join in the pro tection of these beautiful birds and in a few years there will be fine snort bore for the nimrods. W. E. ELLENWOOD , ONCE OF NORFOLK - FOLK , HOME ON LEAVE. Sioux City , Aug. 8. That Panama Is n fine country In which to make money but a poor place to live In Is the view of William C. Ellenwood , a conductor on the Panama railroad , formerly a conductor on the Chicago , St Paul , Minneapolis and Omaha , with headquarters at Norfolk. Mr. Ellenwood. accompanied by Mrs. El lenwood and their two children , has arrived In Sioux City for , i visit with relatives. Ho has a leave of absence for forty-lino days with pay. The family returned via Now York , the trip on the water requiring seven days. Mr. Ellenwood will spend part of his vacation shooting chickens on his brother's ranch In Nebraska. In- cldcnttally he Intends to Invest a part of his Panama savings in farm land along the Nlobrara river. Been There Many Years. Mr. Ellenwood has run a train In Panama for seven years and Is quail- fled to speak of conditions there. As to the climate ho said the tempera ture never fell below 75 degrees Farcnhelt and never got above 00 de grees. The rnlny season , which comes" during our summer months , Is the most disagreeable part of the year. The rain doesn't drop ; it actually pours , sometimes raining almost con stantly for two weeks at n time. Nat urally the vegetation Is rank , and the weeds breed mosquitoes , reptiles , ta rantulas and the sort. Mr. Ellenwood has brought back a collection of skins of snakes ho has killed , remarkable among these being the coats of a whip snake and a coral snake. The sanitary crew of the United States government keeps the weeds cut down nround the houses where Its employes live , and that helps keep the reptiles away from the premises , although It Is not -uncommon thing to discover a deadly reptile under the house. All houses are built on stilts as a matter of protection In this regard. Railroad men and other employes of the government are given furnished houses free of rent. The houses are modern in every respect. Easy to Spend Money. The observation of Mr. Ellenwood has been that Panama is a better country for a married man who has his family with him than for a sin gle man. The trouble with so many single men Is that pay day finds them with a lot of money In their pockets , and they hike for cither Panama on the Pacific sldo or Colon on the At lantic side , which are only forty-seven miles apart , and proceed to give a fair imitation of riotous living. The temptations In these two cities are many. The demimonde of all coun tries are there and gambling houses are everywhere. The United States government does not control condi tions in these two terminal cities. Another trouble so many single men run into in Panama is the drinking of Intoxicants. The best booze fighter who ever lived In the states cannot "handle" the stuff in that tropical cli mate. He won't last ; that's all , Mr. Ellenwood says. The fever will got him , and a quick death will be the result. Uncle Sam Popular. Fine progress Is being mauo on the construction of the great canal , the most wonderful engineering project of nil time. Uncle Sam as all the natives or "Spheggeties , " Spaniards , Italians and other nationalities speak of the United States government , Is a mighty man , and down there ho com mands all the respect there is. An American woman is shown deference at all times , and room on the side walks or In public places is always made for American children. The feeling is that if harm should come to any of these that Uncle Sam would send a squadron of his big battleships the next day and blow up the whole country. Among the numerous Interesting collections brought back by Mr. El lenwood Is that of Panaman coins. The country has no gold coin or paper money. Rev. J. L. Headbloom , Pastor of Bap tist Church. Stromsburg , Neb , Aug. 8. The fol lowing resolutions touching the de parture of Rev. J. L. Headbloom and his family to Norfolk were adopted by the Eden Baptist church of Stroms burg : Whereas , Our beloved pastor , Rev. J. L. Headbloom has received a call from the first Baptist church of Norfolk - folk , Neb. , and for the purpose of ac cepting the same , has tendered his resignation as pastor of the Eden Baptist church therefore be it , Resolved , That wo accept with re gret and eadnese his resignation , that whereas the relations existing be tween pastor and church during the past twelve years .havo been usually pleasant , wo feel most keenly the separation , which must occur , yet wo do feel grateful to our heavenly Father for the spiritual blesHlnga which Imv6 entered Into our llvcfl through his ministrations , and for the Influence for good which has gene out to this community through hln godly and upright life , and for the many soulH which have been gnrnorcd for the kingdom , duilni ; bin ministrations. Also for the Innplilng and unllftlng of BOH I through sweet song , which It has been his Joy to bring to us , and through which ho loved to Intorpct the message of his mauler. Bo It further resolved that the best wishes and the prayers of this church will follow him and his esteemed * family to their new home , and may they reap four fold of that which they shall sow ; In the Ingathering of souls for Christ. And it Is the prayer of this church , that should it be the will of the father , wo may yet moot many times with these loved friends , while wo are still In this earthly tabernacle ; re newing the friendship which has in creased with the passing years. But If It should not be the will of the one who dooth all things well , then may wo meet again In the homo hot made with hands , where Christ has said , " ! go to prepare a place for you. " And whore parting shall be no more. Mrs. J. G. Green , Mrs. S. I. Moore , Mr. E. T. Taylor , committee CHARLES THOMPSON RECEIVES SERIOUS INJURIES.
