Peter Ssaidt, oar miller, was in Fremont and Omaha last week on business in connection with his milL Mr. aad Mrs. ItcFariand returned last Friday from their trip to Wheat bad and other western points. They think Wheatland a nice looking conn try bat not nice enough to live there. Having sold there place here, they will soon move to town to live. The band boys in the neighborhood of Shell Greek Baptist church, are arranging to purchase new ba nd in strameats. The Standard bridge company have finished putting new bridges east and north of Henry Beckenhas's which ot coarse should have been dona long ago. ICr. and Mm. Fred Windrop were Columbus visitors on Saturday of last week. A nice sack of apples were found in Mr. Fred Belhens mail box last Saturday, all we could do was to follow carrier No. 2e example when such things occur on his route, "Hold thorn f or postage. They were as fine a harvest apple as ever fell to the fortune of a postman. And he will not forget the treat. Does it pay to renew the buoyancy and lightheadedness, the spontaneity and the enthusiasm of youth? Rev. Papenhausen, who by the way is quite a vegetarian, having a splen did garden which occupies a portion of his time, remembered as with a fine basket of cucumbers Monday. Considerable wheat was threshed the past week along the route from the shock. It running from 10 to -' ner acre. D. Belben threshed 80 acres averaging 30 bushels and Louis Saalfleld CO acres averaging 2a bushels were the largest fields threshed. Quite an unusual event was celebrat ed at Mr. Joe.

Her three sons from different portions of the state gathered with their wives and all of the grand children and great grand children were present. Also a large attendance of friends. A nraver service was new m wnicn their hearts opened up in praise to Him who has gives Grandmother Kamm the opportunity of living such a wonderful age of preservation, her mind and hearing, also her sight be ing perfectly clear at this timo. She not experiencing any ot those-difficulties which usually trouble people when they reach that age. Plenty of refreshments were served in the way of cakes and lemonade to which ample justice was done. A handsome purse weU filled with that which'goes to help out in the necessity of life was presented to Grandmother Kamm, whose heart no doubt was full of gratituae, not for the value of what the purse contained but for the ex pression it carried from the hearts of of those who gave it. Mrs. Kamm makes her home with her son Frank. Monroe (Correspondence.) Frank Van Allen is the only lucky man from Monroe who registered at Bonesteel, he having drawn No. 737. The actual value of his claim will depend on the good judgment of 73C other men who will be entitled to entry before Frank can file tor his claim. People who know say that his claim should be worth at least 110,000 more than it will cost him to secure it. P. 8. There are several peo ple in Monroe who were disappointed. Miss Eva Larson left Wednesday morning for her future home in Arcadia. She met her sister Mis. F. J. Russell in Columbus and they made the trip to gether. W. E.

Hugh Hill wss the first farmer near here who was so fortunate as to capture one. The bowery dance at W. M. Draper's on Saturday night was well attended and a good time reported by all. Autonomies are still new to us coun try people as was well demonstrated on Monday afternoon when Messrs. Need ham and Lidell of Albion ran into town to take coal and water. A crowd from Lindsay spent Monday and Tuesday camping and fishing on the river near town. They didn't have any fish stories to tell however, so we sup pose they were honest men. Mm.

Score Humphrey, 2 and Creston 1. Thursday evening a party of oar young people organized a party to what is known as a "hay rack ride" to the farm of August Bauaart about six mile from here. They engaged their driver and ha in turn engaged a hay rack. The party became so in terested in their dance and other games that they took no note of time. The driver however knew he mast re- tan the hay rack in time for aseia the morning ao drove home and left the party who were compelled to find their way home as best theyooald. To add to their comforts en route home they were caught in a rainstorm and that did not increase their pleas ure in the walk. Jacob Ripp left Moaday on a visit to Iowa friends. John Steffis won claim 1178. He likely will not file. F. J. Weisner, father of Mrs. A. J. Lunger, is visiting here. John Bender reports the people along "Slim Street" very basy in harvest between showers. N. Brewer of Cornlea was a Hum phrey visitor Friday. He reports there is more small pox in Cornlea. Humphrey is enjoying that quiet that always precedes a storm. You may look for something excit ing in the way of news, soon. Politics are very quiet here.. It seems the Bryan democrats are becom ing Parkerized. I do not want to be misunderstood. They have not taken to the water, bat they are saying nothing. Henry Kaas is completing his new hoase and it will be a nice addition to west Humphrey. Obe Terwilliger is building an addi tion to his already spacious residence.

Henry Welch of Shell Creek was in Columbus Saturday. Durward Davies was upfront Mr. Ren dell's where he is working, last Sun day to visit at home. His Bister Edna returned with him in the evening to visit the Misses Rendell for a few days. The carpenter work on Carl Rosche's store building was completed the hut of the week and the occasion was celebrated well jast celebrating. Mrs.Henry Welch has just recovered from a long Beige of illness and now she is suffering from inf tarnation of the eyes. Mrs. Welch is held in high esteem by all who know her and has been missed as post mistress. Since cherry season is over we have resumed the custom of driving one horse and changing at the other end of the route. Lost, strayed misappropriated. News Items. Or they may have been ab sorbed in poetry. The complainant might do well to enquire of P. J. Barron. There is no doubt about the demo crats and populists getting together in convention, if the democrats can name the man. but if the pops want to name the man he will be a rail road tool, like Mickey. A railroad faslonist who aspires to the' governorship of Nebraska has been cited but his name will be with held until after August 10. How plain it is. Mrs. J. W. Rendell ami her daugh ter Eva were in town the hut ot the week. The Rendells milk about 25 cows and bring about 50 pounds of good butter to town every week. aticMam ami Virility. Richland, Neb.

The nosts are three inches long and bring $12 (Mexi can) for bunches of ten or twelve, ac cording to size. The gum of which they are largely composed Is a secre tion from the salivary glands of the swallows. Life Belt With a Mask. A German inventor, working on the theory that most persons who are drowned are really overcome by the waves which cannot be kept from dashing into the face of the victim, has invented a mask to be worn in connection with a life preserver, and this, he thinks, will be the means of saving many lives. It is provided with valves, which will not permit of the entrance of water, but which respond easily to suction, so that the breath Ire cf (he V2arer is net Interfered :!! Met Her Match.
