The Fremont correspondent of the

following: Mrs. Jennie T, North of this
city and Fred H. Frahm of Lincoln were
married yesterday afternoon at the
home of the bride's mother on East
Third street in the presence of a few
near relatives of the contracting parties.
The home was tastily decorated for the
occasion. Rev. Bass performed the cer
emony. The bride is well and favorably
known in Fremont, where she has lived
for some time. Mr. Frahm is a travel
ing salesman for Harsgraves Bros, of
Lincoln. Mr. and Mrs. Frahm will be

Monday night of last week, about 10
o'clock, the Creston roller mill, owned
by J. Palmateer, burned down. The
bnilding and machinery were a loss, as
well as two carloads of flour, a large
amount of bran, feed, grain, etc. The
loss is estimated at $10,000, about $3,000
insurance. The mill was one of the
chief institutions of Creston, and the
village will sadly feel the loss. Coming
upon the other very serious losses by
fire of a recent date, makes it all the
more disastrous. There is talk that the
fire started in a pile of rubbish on the
second floor by spontaneous combustion.

origin.

Mr. Swearingen bad been away visiting
over in Iowa, enjoying himself, seeing
the sights and comparing this country
against all out-doors, with a remainder
over in favor of Nebraska. But Satur
day was somewhat of an exceptional
day, and the two men, for the most part,
were not directors of their own fortune,
but rather drifted with tha tide. At
least, after the bronchos were tied to the
surrey in the morning, the responsibility
was mixed, to say the least. Mr. Swear
iniren savs he believes he never had
before such an uncontrollable desire to
grab the lines aad direct the devious
way past team after team across the
long Loup bridge anil out of danger, and
he don't know how it was donp, but it
was, and they pnlleJ throngh ahve. Mr.
Hoadley suffered the fracture of Lis left
arm, below the elbow, which Dr. Arnold
put to rights, and a boy caught the
runaway team near the Union Pacific
railroad bridge. Of course the team
were not hurt to sneak of. It is some
thing wonderful, however, the difference
in a Nebraska landscape when yon are
behind an ordinary, well-bahave.l team,
and one that is inclined to go its own
gait. Stand up for Nebraska.
R. G. Emmons, the Lincoln blood
hound man, was in the city today, hav
ing been engaged in tracing a number
of fellows who dt9tnrbed a religious
gathering in Stanton county, "east of
Madison, Sunday night, by throwing
two dozen rotten eggs. The matter wks
referred to Chief of Police Conley and
he recommended Mr. Emmons as being
the man to catch the offenders. The
Lincoln man set bis dogs to work yes
terday and, in spite of the fact that it
had rained since the deed was commit
ted, succeeded in locating four of the
fellows concerned at distances of from
four to seven miles from the placo of
meeting. The four pleaded guilty to
the charge and were fined 824.50 each.
Figured at S49adoz?n the eggs attained
Klondike prices and were more or less
ancient at that. It was an expensive
experiment to thoe concerned. Mr.
Emmons has Chi.f ConleVs dog in
training and says that he promises well
as a trailer of men. NorfolJc Xowa.
