If you havo any objections to, or

Last Sunday morning John Kra
tochvil, who lived three miles southwest
of here, left home saying that he was
coming' to town to get some ammunition
and that he would return and kill the
entire family. After he left home his
wife came to town and swore out a war
rant for his arrest before Justice Walker.
He must have suspicioned what was
going on as he left at once for home.
Constable Kuccra went out to serve the
warrant and found Kratochvil in bed
with a loaded gun standing near by, but
Joe had hold of him before he could use
the gun. On the way to town he told
Kucera that he had taken poison and
that he had intended to kill his wife.
Upon arriving in town he was placed in
jail and Dr. Wilber sent for. Every
thing was done to counteract the effects
of the poison that he had taken, and at
first it was thought that ho would re
cover, but between 9 and 10 o'clock on
Monday morning ho breathed his last.
The deceased has been in almost a con
tinuous stato of intoxication for several
years and has often threatened to kill
his wife and himself. On Tuesday the
remains were laid to rest in the Clarkson
cemetery. The deceased leaves a wife
and eight children. The woman had a
farm left her by her first husband and
that seems to have been the cause of
much of their family trouble. Schuy

If John Tannahill isn't careful, he
will get into trouble this timo out, among
the Indians. He described to us one
time how the Indians at Pine Ridge came
for their beeves. There is a large corral
into which the cattle are driven. Tho
sharpshooter takes a Winchester rifie
and shoots down the beeves wanted.
Then, there being two hostile bands of
Indians, representatives of one band
come in atone side of tho corral for their
share of the beef, while their enemies
use the other side of the corral, police
being on hand between the bands, to
keep the peace. On Friday last there
was an engagement between the Indian
police nnd Two Sticks' band, in which, it
is reported, one of Two Sticks' sons and
another buck were killed, and Two
Sticks and one of his men wounded.
This took place near the spot where four
white men were killed. These had found
Indians the day before killing a steer
belonging to their herd being held on the
agency for delivery at Pine Ridge. They
threatened to report the Indians, which
so maddened them that they made
threats which they afterwards carried
out in the murder of the cow boys named
George Hadeway, John Bennett, Rodney
Royce and Ed. Cochrane. John, come
home before they get your scalp.

A countryman was in town Saturday
with threo turkeys weighiug 18 pounds
each, intended for a raffle somewhere,
and dropped into a popular resort on
Twelfth street, suspecting nothing of
wrong about to take place. After pass
ing a few social minutes with jovial com
panions, ho retraced his steps to the
curbstone where he left his team and
turkeys but found that the sack full of
turkeys had disappeared and its place
taken by an empty sack. He involun
tarily oxclairaed to the crowd who were
taking in the situation: "Be jabers, a
man who will steal from poor people
when he comes to face St. Peter, it will
be hold up against him." When he
found tho namo of one of his fun-loving
neighbors on the empty sack, the truth
dawned upon the mind of the turkey
owner.

On Friday afternoon Mr. Burke re

school instructing him to arrest two
runaway Indian boys, aged thirteen and
eighteen years respectively, should he
see them. An hour later the boys came
walking in from the west along the
Union Pacific railroad track and were
promptly arrested. They were taken to
the hotel and given supper, then locked
up in the jail till the next day when the
niar8hal,fcper instructions, took them to
the train and turned them over to Super

The stealing of coal from theU. P.
R. R. cars is soon to come to a halt, if
indications point correctly. In the year
'92 there was a shortage o'f over 200 tons
of coal, and lately there has been on an
average of about one car a night lost
The company have been having a detec
tive at work lately who beguiled fifteen
into a building to get warm and secured
their names. One man says he counted
fifty wandering away from the tracks one
night carrying sacks. The company do
not wish to punish those who are not
guilty of taking from the cars, but they
want the stealing stopped, and will prob
ably bring a good many to time.
The Y. M. C. A. rooms were crowded
Saturday evening with an interested
crowd of ladies and gentlemen. It was
a reception given by the association to

short program was rendered, after which
refreshments were served. Later in the
evening several drills were given in the
gymnasium room, by young boys, which
was as interesting as anything during the
evening. We might mention here that
the gymnasium promises to be a great
success, thirty young boys alone hav
ing joined the association since the outfit
was put in. The reading room is amply
furnished with all the leading papers,
and old and young can find many hours'
pleasure in reading.

having formerly been an active young
business man at Schuyler. Now if our
prison system wero such that Dworak
could thero earn what his native industry
and genius, rightly directed, would bring

Miss Ella Lembach and Mr. Frank
Rorer were married at the residence of

Tuesday afternoon Jan. 31st, by Rev. J.

at the ceremony. Mr. Rorer is a leading
hardware merchant at Fairmont, Minne

ple as an excellent business man, having
been a resident here. Miss Lembach
has hosts of friends who know her as an
exemplary young lady. They took the

eastern cities where they will visit for
some time. May their lives be as happy

C. E. Early has opened out in the

insurance he represents a number of the

transact business for them on strictly
business principles valno received at
all times. Mr. Early is a young man
well known in this community, and
whose business record is a very enviable

in prices and values of land and city
property, those having purchases, sales
or exchanges of land to effect will do
well to give him a call, tf
Wednesday evening last there was
another meeting held with reference to
the Columbus Public Hospital project.
The committee on organization made
their report, which was accepted; one of
the committee on finance was present,
and reported subscriptions amounting
to $250; the committee on building and
grounds made no report several sites
had been talked of, but no definite plans
matured. It was the desire of the meet
ing that the chairmen of the several
committees call their forces together,
and especially that the finance committee
canvass very thoroughly by the next
meeting, Wednesday evening, Feb. 15.
Water powers derived from the
Loup and Platte rivers are being talked
of in more places than Columbus, Fre
mont and Omaha. The latest is the
Plattsmouth Motor Power company,with
a capital stock of 8500,000, the purpose
being to utilize the waters of the Platte
by, a canal, for the benefit of all the
manufacturing enterprises of that city.
These schemes have to be thought over
and talked of before they can become
real, but isn't it about time that the
first two processes mentioned should
merge in third for these places mentioned?

John Tannahill started Thursday
evening for a two weeks' trip among the
Indians at Rosebud sgency. John is
acquiring quite a fund of information
and a bundle of experience in his travels
recently. Among the red men he always
travels with an interpreter, and during
his trips among the Brule Sioux he has
been accompanied by a Mr. Walker and
Joseph Rogers, both full-blooded In
dians, both good men, and having an
abundance of the truo missionary feelintr.
giving or their time, thoir ability and
their work to tho betterment of their
fellow men. Mr. Tannahill thinks that
the labors of these two Indians among
meir own people do more good for them
than that of a thousand white men work
ing merely for pay. In nearly every
place at which they stopped for the night
there would be family worship, consist
ing of reading a chapter in the bible and
a prayer, conducted either by the inter
preter or a member of the family with
whom they were stopping. But John's
experiences are not all of the pleasant
sort, by any means. Some time after a
very hearty dinner, during whioh one of
the neighbor Indian women had brought
in a large supply of meat, the man of the
house asked Tannahill if he knew what
kind of meat he had eat for dinner. John
answered that it was jack rabbit it tast
ed so good. His feeling was changed
somewhat in regard to it when he was
assured that he had partaken of wolf
meat Of course if he had known it
beforehand, tho meat would have been
regarded the same as dog meat, but the
knowledge came so long after dinner
that the stomach continued its functions
undisturbed by the tardy information.
That country abounds with wolves, deer,
rabbits, grouse, gray squirrels and some
red squirrels. There aro so vera 1 coun
ties of South Dakota that have no water
except what they get from the Btreams
and by artesian wells, and thero are run
ning streams whose months empty a less
volume of water than is found above,
showing an under-ground outlet. Men
will undertake to bore wells and guaran
tee artesian flow for one dollar per foot
depth. In some places township bonds
aro voted for boring artesian wells, and
large reservoirs, called lake beds, receive
and hold the water until needed for use
by farmers. It is a great stock country,
cattle being brought in off the pasture
(buffalo grass), in fairly good order and
killed for beef. In some parts there are
indications of the surface vein of coal

the hills were so hot that it was danger

The Deadly Cornsheller Again.
O. Macaffie, who has been working for
O. S. Christian on tho old Payne place
got his right hand caught in the cogs
of a cornsheller last Friday night and
had his thumb and forefinger crushed
and pulled out of joint at the wrist.
The hand was almost denuded and some
of tho cords and muscles pulled out of
tho palm of the hand. Dr. Mackay am
putated the forefinger at the wrist as
well as what was left of tho thumb.
One of the bones of the wrist was also
removed to get skin enough to cover the
wound. The hand was so badly torn
that it will take a long time for it to
heal, and it may be that anothor ampu
tation will be necessary.
Another victim of the deadly machine
is Emery Penney, 25 years of age and
lately married living in Voorhees Valley,
Boone county, who had his arm so badly
crushed last week as to require amputa
tion above the elbow, which was per
formed by Drs. Lewis and Smith of
Albion. Madison Reporter.
