The settlers on Loseke's creek are

Eliaa Atwood, near Albion, Boone county

George Lehman informs us that a new
school house is about to be erected in his
district, near Monroe. The erection of
' good substantial school bousas is evidence
.'a thrift, but employment of competent
teachers to take charge of the schools
(after the bouses are built) is still better
evidence of thrift and sound judgment.
The fruit prospects in Nebraska were
never better at this season of the year.
Usually plum trees are in full bloom at
the hrst of May, but the cold weather
this spring has kept the buds back and
they are but just swelling and bursting
out to form the leaves, and by the time
thr bloom forms it is not probable that
a frost will come to kill the fruit; we may
therefore reasonably expect an abun
dance of fruit the present season.
Last Saturday -evening about nine
o'clock the alarm of fire was sounded,
and in a minute the whole town was
astir. It seems that parties who weie

.- of town, but supposed it to besomebuild-
'.. in'g atire. and immediately gave the

Some of the Union Pacific employees
of Columbus have circulated a petition
requesting the state railway commission
not to make any further reduction in
freight rates at this time, anticipating
that if reductions are made that one
thing appears to be certain a cut in
wages. The same action has been taken
by the employees of the Northwestern
line in Nebraska. At Norfolk a com
mittee of railway employees went before
the commercial club of that place and
made a reqnest that, for the present a,
least, the club cease its efforts to secure
a cut in freight rates to that place, point
ing out that what little would be gain
ed by business men in a reduction from
the pre-ent rates, would mean a cut iu
wages paid to railway employees living
in Norfolk and a certain reduction in
the amount of money expended for the
necessities of life. The commercial club
finally agreed to cease the effort to se
cure lower rates for the present. The
fact that business in railway circles is
not an rushing as it was a year ago is
apparent from the amount of money
paid to railway employees in Columbus.
In March, 1907, the Union Pacific paid to
employees in Columbus $."5,503.55; for the
same period this year the amount was
$4,249.52, a decrease of S1.254 03. At
Grand Island, in March, 1907, employees
received S35.3S0.28. and for March, this
year, 2 1.577.54, a decrease of $10,802.74.
The amounts paid at Columbus and
Grand Island does not include the
amount naid for extra work, which has
ceased almost entirely since last fall.
The company has piled up at the various
towns on its branch lines material for
bridge construction and track work.
This material will not be used aud labor
again employed until such a time as the
business of the road will permit. Ex
treme agitation against railway com
panies works harm not only to the roads
but to the community as well.
Former Assistant Secretary of War,
George J. Mieklejohn, as well as former
lieutenant governor of Nebraska and
congressman, was in Omaha, Saturday
morning from his home at Fullerton.
"I had not seen the notice of my intend
ed marriage to some very wealthy widow
in Colombia," said Governor Meiklejohn.
"There is nothing to the matter. It is
true that I expect to leave for Colombia.
South America, the latter part of this
month. My business there will be whol
ly on business ninttess. connected with
interests I have there, only that and
nothing more. It is true that I may
eventually locate in Omaha, but for the
present I shall merely maintain an office
here, as being more convenient for my
business interests, which keep me on
the move much of the time. I have just
now returned from Denver, and expect
to leave the city again today. Possibly
when I return I may have something
more to say than I have time to tell you
today," Asked point blank in reference
to his intended marriage in Bogota,
Colombia, Governor Meiklejohn was not
disposed to say much, other than to in
dicate that "there was nothing to the
matter." Omaha Bae.
W. M. Cornelius went to Genoa last
Friday to represent a client before the
board of trustees of that village. At the 1
recent municipal election, Genoa voted
against license by four majority. Among
those who voted were eight employees
of the government Indian school dome
of the license men claimed that the
votes of the school employees were cast
against license; that as the village had
no legal authority to incorporate the'
government reservation, the votes cast
by the school emnloyees were illegal, and
should not be considered by the board
as a determining factor in the issue.
Mr. Cornelius presented decisions from
the supreme courts of Ohio and Massa
chusetts to sustain his contention that
the board had a moral as well as a legal
right to grant a liquor license to his
client, but the members of the board de
clined to go behind the returns and re
fused to grant the application asked for.
Extensive improvements are contem
plated at 6t. Bonaventura's church the
coming summer, wnicu, wneu complet
ed, will cost about $15,000. An addition
30x40 feet will be built on the west end
of the building, which will include a
tower. The interior of the church will
also be remodelled and redecorated. The
addition of the tower, which will be one
hunderd and six feet in height from the
ground to the top of the cress, will add
very much to the appearance of the
building. Already over $8,000 has been
raised for this work and it is expected to
have a considerable portion of the bal
ance on hand before the work is complet

D. A. Brown, representing an Omaha
insurance agency, while seated in the
lobby of a Columbus hotel the other
evening, made the remark that very few
men could say that they had shaken
the hand of a person of royal blood.' In
1882, when the Marquis of Lorne, who
married Queen Victoria's youngest
daughtei, was on his wedding tour, Mr.
Brown and his wife, who were also ou
their honeymoon trip, met the Marquis
of Lorne and his wife, and were enter
tained by them at Ottawa, Canada. As
Mr. Brown and his wife left the place
where their host and hostess were stop
ping, some one in the crowd in front of
the house asked who that distinguished
looking couple were. A bystander vol
unteered the information that it was
Duke of Omaha. Sneaking of royal
blood, calls to mind an article the writer
read many years ago, about everybody
having royal blood in their veins. Ever'
man has two parents, four grand parents,
eight great-grand parents, sixteen great-great-grand
parents, thirty-two great-great-great-grand
parents, etc. Now if
we reckon twenty-five years to a genera
tion, and carry on the above calculation
to the limit of William the Conqueror, it
will be found that each living person
must have had at that time 155,000,000 of
ancestors. Now, supposing we make the
usual allowance for crossing or inter
marrying of families in a geneaological
line, and tor the same nerson being in
many of the intersections of the family
tree, and still there will remain a number
at that period even to cover the whole
Norman and Anglo-Saxon races. What,
therefore, might have been pious, prince
ly, kingly or aristocratic, stauds side by
side in line with the most ignoble, pie
bian'or democratic. Etch man of the
present 'day may be certain of having
hod, not only barons and squires, but
even crowned heads, dukes, princes,
bishops, or renowned generals, etc.,
among his ancestors.
