Frank Davis, an old timer in Co' iumbus, editor, postmaster, and lawyer, and who is now editing a rattling good local paper in Silver Creek, says in an ewer to queries why he adopted the name "Sand" for his publication as fol lows: This paper was named Sand be cause we knew it would take sand to run a paper in a town which had been a graveyard for newspapers. We made good and were making a living, thanks to the good people of the town and country, when the fire struck us. We lost the profits of three years' labor in a few minutes, but we still have the "sand" and will make good, so don't worry about us. We need your patronage and will work to deserve it.

Last Thursday Mr. Kuntzelman chased a large gray wolf out of his yard, and the animal was so hold as to loiter about the place, but remaining a safe distance from the muzzle of a shot gun. He has lost much, small stock through the work of these pests, and the other day together with a Journal reporter it was decided for a general round-up in the near future. The town is long on hounds and enough people can be had for the chase by say ing the word, and a general "cleaning-up" of the coyote will be the result. There are many mean tricks and jokes played on some one every day of the year but the very meanest to be thought of is one to be played oa an editor or a preacher. The editor of the Lindsay Post is the very latest victim, and says: "The editor was greatly surprised last Thursday morning on going out to his chicken coop to find the door open and five of his nicest fowls missing. Not surprised alone at finding the chickens missing, as there are anch tilings hap pening in every town, bat surprised when we were informed as to who did the work. I am told that it has base a passtime with a few of our citizens for a number of years to have a chicken fry several times during the season, and to get their birds through this dishonest method, thinking it sport I am really at a loss to know what steps to take in this matter, or whether to pass it up as a cheap joke, as I know every maa that took part in the deal, three reliable gen tlemen having given me their Barnes. It is not the loss of the chickens so much as it is the fact that Lindsay.bss men with no more priuciple than Una as it's citizens, as well as being treated in this manner that hurts, although it is a loss to me."

They know his ability as a a masioisn and teaoher, having been musical director in our city schoola a few years ago,, besides doing class teach ing and enjoying while here the promi nence of leader in most all musical faactioaa. He is now located at North Platte, and the following news taken from the Tribune, n paper at that place, says of him: The writer believes in speaking the word of appreciation and totaisintsat desires to commend the work aad painstaking' care of Prof. .Garliaab, an instructor of innsic in our pabue schools. It ia manifest to all havbjgtodo with church work that there hss been a noticeable improvement ia singing on the part of our boys and girls. In my parish lsst week one of oar members ata rehearsal for our ehildrsa's Christmas program expressed surprise that the children took hold of the musio so readily,' remarking that the eoatraat with that of preceding!- yean wan quite noticeable and asked the therefor. To me the result in measure, at least, is to be attribatad to the instruction received under the direction of Prof. Garliseh in the public schools, and for this I am heartily glsd. All of us recognize how incieuaingry useful, we might almost say aeosssary, is the ability to sing or play soma musical instrument to our young maa aad women today and all caanot afford technical private it is, a cause of gratification that owpujrim school music is in such 'Ifr LmttSttlxt?' x Governor Mickey made tha list act of his administration the issuing of a'fuH and complete pardon to Maa, Lena Lillie She wa serving a, Hftv sentence ia th penitentiary for the. supposed murder of her husband, Harvey Liilie. at David City. 'The governor had given this case particular'stucly, and the flood of politi cians and prominent people working for her liberation, had much.to.do with the oake.x She had served about two yearsof her sentence. The following history of the crime, for which she was convicted, is given below, taken from the Bellwood Gazette, published at the home of her parents, and formerly her old home: "The murder of Harvey Lillie occurred in David Cityia October, 1903 His wire was arrested soon afterwards, and her trial a few months later resaltedin her conviction and sentence 'for life. Prior to that she bad, been out on bail. .She was kept at David City until .after the supreme court had twice decided against her. Then she was brought here. Alf though Mrs. Lillie did not take the stand in her own defense or attempt to explain away the charges. There has1 always been a large contingent of Nebraakans who do' not believe her guilty, and regard her aa the victim of a great wrong; Many of these have been active ia bring ing pressure to bear upon the governor and their efforts have been supplement ed by attorneys and friends and rekv tives. The mother of Mr. Lillie has always insisted that down in her heart she has a conviction that Mrs. Lillie did not kill her husband, and she is anxious that a pardon issue. Mrs. Lillie hsf been well treated at the prison. One correspondent who has visited her saya her room is more like a parlor' than a cell, and that she has been given uunsua) freedom, being permitted to take long walks attended, and otherwise been favored above others. She slill stoutly maintains her innocence, and has im pressed many besides the governor with the justice of her cause. The bearing this afternoon before the governor is being warmly contested, protest sgainat as well as appeals for a pardon being made.' On behalf of Mrs. Lillie it is in sisted that the evidence was not con--clusive, and that an insufficient motive was shown. That motive was that she killed him to get money to gamble on the local board of trade. It is iusisted that in view of the very cordial relations ex isting between hnsband and wife, a fact uncontradicted, this i.s improbable espe cially on the partpf a -woman or Mrs. Lillie s refinement. It is also contended mat tue evidence is entirely -circum stantial, and that it does not conclusive ly prove her guilt. On the other hand it is contedned that the woman has had a fair trial, that a jnry of intelligentmen in her home connty hud reluctantly con victed her, and that the supreme court. after tvrb hearings, bad held that the evidence was sufficient to uphold a con-' vie t ion and that she bad a fair trial." Mrs. Peter Bender sr. for more thsn 21 ytars a continions resident of- Hum phrey, died at her home in this city last Saturday morning at 6:45 o'clock after an illness of short duration. Mrs. Ben der, seemingly, was possessed of a strong and hearty constitution and not with standing her advanced age she bad every appearance of being able to live for sev eral years yet. But when the ravages of disease once took hold of her it was soon apparent that her constitution, due to old age, was not strong enough to free her. She passed away peacefully, surrounded by her lifelong partner aad her children, happy in the thought that she was heir to all that is good in the world above us. Catherine Mailman was born in Udenbauaen, Germany, on April 17, 1832, consequently at the time of her. death ahe was 74 years, 8 months ann 12 daya old.

Box rent rates have beea fixed hereto fore upon no estsblishsd beam, with the result that at certaia large post oflees rates i are 'lever' than at many small offices; that taa oharga for email bases is ia many eases higher than that which ahonld.be nmde. for large boxes; that rents are sometisMS collected at the saaae rate for boxes of all sizes; aad that at post offloeu of like elass, ia the same vicinity, equipped with similar boxes, rente are collected at widely different rates. In order to mmedy these condi tions aad to provide a definite and satis factory rule for the collectioa of box rents tbe4 following schedule, based upon the kind and capacity of boxes, and the gross receipts at post offices, has been adopted and will be strictly adhered to by the-Department in the establishment of all box rent rates, from and after Jan nary 1, 1907: . . Under this order box rents in Colum bus will be sixty cents aad 91 for three months. This is quite a .raise and hss oreated a good deal of dissatisfaction, but the postmaster is not to blame for it, exoept that! perhaps herotofore he baa not charged enough for box teats. The highest prises for box rente, are charged in Chicago and Nsw York city, where large boxes rest for Pfi per year. BsCsieiai Waara yam "Spit."
