Schuyler Sun.
About a year ago Will Brown
obtained possession of a curiously mark
ed flint spade about 4 by 21 inches,
taken from the bank of the Cedar, near
Fullerton. This he took with him to
Lincoln and exhibited it there during
the meeting of the State Historical
society, in January, and Mr. J. A. Barett,
librarian, became interested in the relic.
He sent a description to several institu
tions, among them the Smithsonian, and
replies stated that nothing similar had
ever been found. Albion News.
Thursday last C. H. Galbraitb, a
prominent young farmer ten miles west
of Schuyler was killed by a west bound
freight train, at the Union Pacific depot
in Schuyler. He attempted to get on
the cars while the train was in motion
and fell nnder the wheels; his left leg
was cut off, and his right arm, right leg
and head badly mangled. He had been
in this city earlier in the evening, having
some money, drinking, etc When pulled
out he was unconscious and in that con
dition died in a few minutes. He was
about 22 years old, and leaves a wife.
The Union Pacific officials on Mon
day found about the same state of feel
ing as formerly in regard to M street,
themselves contending that the street
was legally at their disposal, and inter
ested property owners on Eleventh
street and elsewhere strenuous in con
tending for their rights in the business
streets of the city. It seems to be the
general opinion that Monday was only
intended as an occasion for the re-assertion
of the intention of the Union Pacific
officials in regard to the freight depot
It is presumed that only a legal contest
will decide the matter.
John Neumarker went to Kearney
Friday as the contestant from this dis
trict in the High school oratorical con
test held there in the evening. He was

ant and should have rightfully belonged
to Neumarker as the South Omaha boy
had been given second place in the Nor
folk contest and according to the con
stitution of the association, had no right
to be on the program. Neumarker re
cited the same piece that won the prizes
in Columbus and Norfolk.

The Omaha World-Herald of Satur
day has the following paragraph, which
will be interesting news to many Jour
nal readers: Edward W. North, presi
dent of the Blnestone-Alaska Mining
company has news that makes him feel
as happy as though he had owned 1,000
shares of Northern Pacific stock and bad
let it go when it was at the highest
point. His advices are to the effect that
the men engaged in the mines have
struck pay dirt that is running from $1
to f 10 per pan. The letter informs him
that six men working on an adjoining
claim, took out $14,000 in six days. The
Bluestone property is located under the

...ANOTHER...
FREE BUGGY !
Read What I am
Going to Do.
BUY ONE OF MY 81.00 WHIPS FOR CASH
and get a Buggy Free. For every 100 whips
sold for cash at 1.00 each I am going to give each pur
chaser of same a ticket, and the lucky one in the drawing
will get the Buggy. So you have one chance out of 100
to get a buggy free, besides each purchaser of a whip gets
value received for his money. The drawing will take
place as soon as 100 whips have been sold, so you will not
have long to wait if you come at once and select your
whip.
I also extend you a cordial invitation to come and
look us over, because everything I have is for your benefit.
Fly season is here and you will need Screen Doors and
Wire Screens for your windows, Poultry Netting for
chicks. The Great American Ball Bearing Lawn Mow
ers and Lawn Hose, the Progress Refrigerators, nothing
better made. Call and see my new line of Gasoline
Stoves, they are the finest in the city and my prices the
best $3.50 up. I have something new in the way of a
Gasoline Stove with a lamp attachment. Call and see
it work.
Also just received a fresh, new line of Masury's
Paints and Varnishes, and the best stock of Farming Im
plements and Machinery in the market, consisting of
Avery Corn Planters and Cultivators, Janesville Disc
Cultivators, Rakes, Standard Mowers, Champion Binders,
Sweeps and Hay Stackers.
Call and get my prices and see for yourself.
