even to the. clothing, nothing being

that will be to him 'a reminder of' the
occasion long to be remembered. He
has a toy cannon, the gift of his father
when John was a boy, and which he has
used ever since, on occasion, and which
makes a good-sized fuss for a little gun.
'He had charged it as usual, taking the
fuse of a fire cracker for use at the
touch-hole. But this time, for some
reason or other, the powder discharged
itself at the touch-bole, and with such
force as to strike Mr. Becher in the eyes
and forehead. The accident happened
about 10 o'clock. Occasionally since
powder has been extracted at different
times,-some from the pupil of the right
eye. We write this on Friday. Mr.
Becher says that the sight of his right
eye is a little blurred, and the digging

What does- the Schuyler Herald
mean by saying that one of our newspa
per men has been "working" Schuyler
ites? Its reference is to "Warwick
Saunders, proprietor of the Argus, gov
ernment inspector of oils, and promoter
of irrigation lands." Was it in the last
capacity that he was "working the
Schuylerites? The Jocbxal cannot
allow this slighting reference to one of
our esteemed contemporaries to pass
without rebuke. Stand up, Mr. Herald,
and give us your reason for thus slan
dering one of our citizens.

Ia Memoriae.
Hiram Standish, a direct descendant
of Capt Miles Standish of the May
flower,
county.
was born at Benson, Rutland
Yt, May 2C, 1809, and died
June 25,
1S95, aged 86 years, at the
home of his daughter, Mrs. W. W. Shep
ard, near Columbus, Xebr.
His early life was spent in New Eng
land, bnt early in the 30s he came to
Napierville, DL, where, in 1833, he was
associated with the father of Rev.
Joaiah Strong, D D and others in the
organization of the Congregational
church at that place. For a number of
years after the close of the war. of the
rebellion, he was a trusted and faithful
employe of the C.B.iQ. road as station
agent.at different places in-Dlinois. In
1885, age creeping on, he came to Co
lumbus, and bis' home has since been
with Mrs. Shepard. He was a member
of the Congregational church of our
dty.
Since early boyhood he has been a
faithful worker for Christ and the
church, a prominent and loved member.
and worker in various official positions
in the church .'and Sunday school.
Through all the suffering of the last
few years of his life, his sweet and quiet
Christian spirit has been manifested as'
he -has patiently waited, with never a
word of complaint, the call to leave the
earthly house and go to the eternal life
and rest in the presence of the Lord.
Four children survive him and with a
large circle otrelatives and friends, will
ever cherish hie blessed memory. H. '

At a mass meeting of the dtizens of

Hendryx -was called to preside, and
George S. Truman appointed to act aa
secretary, the object of the' meeting
being stated to be to take such action as
will insure the prompt removal of the
Russian thistle from our community.
The following preamble and resolu
tions were read, and after a free discus
sion and interchange of thought, were
unanimously adopted:
Whereas, A much dreaded pest known
as the Russian thistle, has made its ap
pearance'in our midst and-
Whereas, This nuisance has become a
menace and detriment to the agricul
tural interests in many sections of our
state, therefore
Resolved, That it is the sense of this
meeting that the existing laws for the
destruction of -the above named nui
sance shall be vigorously enforced' in
Monroe township and its adjoining lo;
calities without delay, and for this
purpose should have the concerted
efforts of each and every individual for
the mutual benefit of .alL
Resolved, That we discourage the pur
chase of Iate-maturiag grain for seed
especially flax and millet that have been
grown . in the northwest, where said
thistle has become so numerous.
Resolved, That all who are willing to
donate help in the way of labor to re
move this, nuisance report to,the chair
man, who shall keep a record of the
same and furnish help to such as need,
upon application, and: it is further
Resolved, That we will individually
give a day's work to assist the overseers
in clearing infested lands when called on
by them for that purpose.
Resolved, That a copy of these- pro
ceedings be furnished to the county
papers for information and with the
view that the people in general may
realize the necessity of prompt and con
certed action in the work of extermina
tion before it may become a hopeless
task.
The meeting then adjourned, subject
to the call of the chairman.

the following figures, viz:
Average annual rain fall for the past

Amount of rain in March, April, May

Rain fall for the same months in 1895,

Average rain fall for the same months

The greatest amount in the same

The least amount in the same months
in any one year'(1879), 8.17 inches.
The amount of rain in those months
of 1895- reduced to gallons, amounts to
360.33332 gallons nearly Co the acre, cer-
Ltainly' sufficient to mature our crops
without irrigation.

Schuyler Herald: The group of society
young men who have started a series of
private daace parties are to be congrat
ulated upon the successful beginning
they made last week. The first party
was at the home of Frank Faulkner.
Everything passed off beautifully except
for one little matter which the
t)0"V8
overlooked; every man of them forgot to
engage and take a lady to the party.
When the gay company was assembled
it was found that fifteen gallantgentle
men had gathered and one lone lady
had managed to arrive. The lady does
not dance. Again we congratulate our
gallant young men on their peculiar
success in entertaining and escorting
the young ladies! Mrs. Antonio.
Mastny living five-, miles south
west of Clarksoc was found dead, Friday
about 4 p. m. rfn the floor in an upstairs
room in herhome. Her husband John
Mastny was away at Clarkson and-ehe
had sent her children away to a neigu-
bor's'It was on the return of the
cniklrea tnat tnev discoverea tueir
other dead. A mysterious circum
stance connected with the deceased is
the finding of a letter written in Bohe
mian pasted on the inside of the up
stairs door. The verdict of the coron
er's jury was that she came to her death
by poison- supposed to have been ad
ministered bv her own hands.
Osceola Record: Theo. Beebe took his
pacing horse, Harry Holton, to Red Oak,
Iowa, to the meeting of fast horses.
Harry went into the 2:20 pacing race
and took first place making a record of
2 J6J. This was one of the large racing
events of the year. All the great fast
horses were there in all, over fifteen
hundred fast horses were in attendance.
When this is taken into consideration it
will be seen that Harry's victory was
something of an event Some of the
boys were trying to usher in the glo
rious Fourth a day ahead of schedule
time yesterday by shooting fire crackers
and filling a paper shotgun shell with
powder and firing it off,' down on the
creek. The usual results followed. The
shell exploded at the wrong time and
Willie Cole was the unlucky victim. His
face and eyes are badly burned, his right
eye dangerously.
David City News: Last week we made
mention of burglars breaking into the
store cf Hurd & Ladd Bros, at Rising,
on Saturday evening before. They sent
out to the different towns a description
of two men who were seen in Rising
during the day, and now they are board
ing at our county hotel, the jail, having
been picked up by the dty marshal at
North Bend. We suggested last week
that a good jail would not be a bad
thing for Butler county to bcild, but
from the way in which prisoners are
falling into the hands of Sheriff Derby,
we begin to think that a small peniten
tiary would not come amiss. As. ordi-.
nary jail will soon become too small.
Leigh World: Elliot Niccolls was in
jured while riding a horse last week and
is on the sick list this week with mala
rial troubles. The horse he was riding
when he was hurt fell with him and
broke, its leg. The horse was shot
