A. Both residence property east of the Catholic church and will occupy it as soon as Mr. Both moves into his new house. On account of the wet grounds in many fields of grain a number of farm ers placed a small gasoline engine on their binders to run the machinery. This plan enabled them to harvest grain where otherwise it would have been practically impossible. People of Silver Creek had begun to wonder what was the matter. At least two months had passed without a dray changing owners when the monotony was relieved last Tuesday by Lewis Cotton purchasing the G. H. Lacy dray outfit. With the job of marshal, street com missioner and a city dray, Lewis ought to keep tolerably busy. HOWELLS From the Journal. New potatoes are now bringing fifty cents per bushel on the local market, but they will not stay at that figure long as the crop is a good one. On Wednesday last Alois Bogner threshed out a fifteen-acre field of winter wheat on his farm southeast of town which made an average yield of a little better than twenty-five bushels per acre. Another high water mark in the price of Lincoln precinct real estate was reach ed on Tuesday when Bierbaum & Sinde lar sold the Anton Seda farm of eighty acres, one mile north and a half mile west of Ho wells, to Joseph Pojar of the Olean neighborhood for $137.50 per acre. Mrs. James Gillispie, accompanied by her three youngest children, Mary, Flo rence and Harry, returned Monday from a visit at the home of her daughter at Monroe. The latter lady had been seriously ill, caused by eating canned salmon for sapper the Sunday before. She is now convalescing. The past week Will H. Dickinson marketed the hay out from a fifteen acre field of red clover on the Reuben Dickenson farm, a mile south of town. He sold the same to Henry Laur and it brought him $165. Not a bad return from fifteen acres of land when we bear in mind that there will be another crop of hay harvested from the same field before the end of the season. Mr. and Mrs. Henry Pasold and son Gustav, Ferdinand Kraus, Mr. W. Krause and son Charles, and W. F. Schwanke and wife were at Snyder Mon day to attend the funeral of August Zahn, a stepson of Martin Pasold of that place, who was drowned in Pebble creek while fishing last Saturday. The young man wm eighteen years of age and was well spoken of by his friends and associates. Columbna. PLATTK CKSTtt From the Signal. Jfiss Johanna Bnrke cprre up from Columbus last Saturday ev niatto visit her relatives and many fiisad at this place during the week. Mis. John Hassebrook west down to Columbus Wednesday to accompany her daughter, Miss Edith home from St Mary's hospital. Miss Hsasebrook's many friends will be pleased to learn that she is much improved in health. Roberts received a hog on yesterday morning's freight, shipped from Oconee by J. C. Dawson. While he lives bnt three miles from Monroe, Mr. Dawson says he made money by paying freight on the hog to the Platte Center market. It weighed over 600 pounds Louie 8cbroeder of Columbus, came np Wednesday and took the contract for raising the Bruckner More eighteen inches. This is no small job, the build ing having a frontage of sixty-six feet The object of raising this store is to put it beyond the possibility of being flood ed when the creek overflows. A very serious accident happened Monday afternoon to a nine-year old son of Mr. and Mrs. Dick Jones, living in the Postville neighborhood. The boy ran in front of a mowing ma chine and the sickle caught one of his ankles on the front side, near the joint and cut it so badly that the best Dr. Pugh, who was called to dress the wound, says he can hope for is to save the foot, with a permanently stiff ankle. Onr people were somewhat startled last Saturday morning when it was learned that a five year-old son of Mike Kaipust, living on the Cronin farm about a half a mile west of town, had that morning died of diphtheria. It was not known by the public that the child was sick, and evidently the parents did not realize the nature of the disease as a physician was not called until Fri day evening. The remains were taken to Tarnov Saturday evening and interred. Two older boys in the family were also afflicted, but they are now nearly well again. The house is under quarantine. It was discovered that same day that the two year old daughter of Mr. and Mrs. W. T. Bipp, who had been sick for several days, also had diphtheria, al though she was fast recovering. How ever, this house was also placed under quarantine. No other cases have de veloped, and is surely hoped that none will. P. S. Since the above was in type the house of John Kaipust, near the high school building, was quaran tined yesterday, a son having been stricken with the disease. This is par ticularly unfortunate as a child was born to the parents Wednesday evening. ALBION. From the News. The county attorney has agreed to an arrangement whereby the restaurants and dealers in refreshments may sell all kinds of perishable merchandise on Sunday from 8 a. m. to 2 p. m. and from 5 to 7 p. m. This will include ice cream but not cigars. t Will Olsen sustained a broken leg Tuesday night as the result of a run away. Mr. Olsen and Gilbert Eacker were driving into town from the north east, when they came to McGill's auto near Tom Pain's residence. The auto was standing still and the engine was not running, but for some reason the team started to run, breaking the neck yoke. Mr. Eacker managed to get out of the rig, but Mr. Olsen was not so fortunate. In trying to get out, his foot caught some way throwing him and breaking both bones in one leg just above the ankle. The accident will lay him up for some time. From the Argus. One of the biggest parties for little folks ever held in Albion was at the home of James Ne vela Thursday. It was Bonnie's birthday so they made him a party with the yard full of little fellows. They had all kinds of good things to ea that little ones delight in. All this was for sale but there was plenty of ready cash furnished so no one was cramped for lack of money. It was the old greenback idea a little extended, as the money was home made and furnish ed to those who asked. The party wtyl long be remembered by those present and they will wish Bonnie might have a birthday every day. AH things come to those who wait, so at last it came Leonard Hold's turn to take a vacation. He and his wife and daughter Clara started Saturday for fort Laramie, Wyo. to visit his son Lieut. Lawrence. He will be gone a couple of weeks while Clara and her mother expect to spend the rest of the summer. We don't see how the TJ. P. office will survive during his absence but then there is Billy Calhoun. All this is no reflection on Mr. Ford, the supply man. Conductor Compton said it was worse than a Sunday raw. We have heard of a loud calm but never apprie ciated Hohl's noise till since he is gone. MONROE. From the Republican. Mr. A Griffin and son James went to Schuyler last week to attend the f nneral of Mrs. Sumption. They returned Sat urday. The board of education are contem plating having "cement walks built around the school house yard before the fall term opens. While the present board walks are in fair condition, they are in constant need of repairs and this would be a substantial and in the end, an economical improvement. There was a pleasant surprise for Prof, and Mrs. J. B. Aloook Tuesday evening at the Ziegler home, being planned by Mrs. D. W. Ziegler as, a farewell party for them prior to their leaving for their new home in Bntte, Neb. A social evening was enjoyed and refreshments were served. A very sad accident happened on the route Monday, little Loaia Jones, son of I B. H. Jonas being the victim. Ha was Witt Sectional Book Case Fresh stock just received E1TGA2S i 219-21-23 West Eleventh St. visiting his grand mother, Mrs. Thomas Jones and went out in the yard to watch his Uncle Will mow and in some manner got in front of the sickle and had one of his legs almost amputated at the ankle, all of the cords beini; severed. Medical aid was summoned and the wound dress ed, and he bore up under the ordeal bravely, never uttering a ciy. It is thought he will be crippled for life, but his many friends hope this will not be the case as he is a bright little fellow. At a special meeting Wednesday evening the village board took steps toward getting construction work on the water works started. Engineer Early of Oolumubs was present and submitted a plan, which was adopted, and the board also authorized the ad vertisement for both bids for construc tion and sale of the bonds, which appear this week. The location of the pump ing station will be on the rear of the lot owned by the village, a portion of which is now occupied by the town hall. It is the intention of the board to have the wells sunk at once, and then test them out to be sure of their supply. The bids for construction will be opened in twenty days, at which time the contract will be awarded, and it is expected that the successful bidder will begin work as soon as possible. LEIGH. From the World. Small pox was discovered at the homo of Peter Clausaen last Sunday, the son Fred being the victim. The quarantine law was placed in effect immediately. Mr. and Mrs. B. B. Held went to Col umbus in their auto last Saturday lo see Mr. Held's father who is undergoing treatment in the hospital at that place. They report that the old gentleman n getting along nicely. Early Wednesday morning Nick Dun kle met with au accident at the elevat or, the effects of wbioh will be felt for sometime. While trying to start the gasoline engine he braced his right foot on the franoe of the pitman. The euine started suddenly and his foot was caught between the frame and the oil cup. The fore half of his foot was badly mangled and although no bones were broken it is a distressing and painful accident. At the Catholic church in Snyder at 8:30 o'clock Wednesday morning, by Bev. Father Bothe, Miss. Edith Kloppel and Eugene H. Hyland. The ceremony was performed in the presence of Mr. and Mrs. Thos. Hyland parents of the groom, and Mr. and Mrs. Julius H. Pie per. During the ceremony nuptial high mass was celebrated and immediately after a wedding breakfast was served at the priest's home. The groom needs no introduction, having grown to manhood in this vicinity. Last Spring he was graduated from the Kansas City Veter inary College and since that time has been a practicing veterinary at Colum bus. He is a young man of sterling qualities, exemplary in word and deed. The young couple left on the morning passenger for Columbus and will visit relatives and friends in Stanton and Boon county for about three weeks. They will go to housekeeping in Colum bus after August 15th. He F. Greiner I STAPLE AND FANCY GROCERIES. The best of every thing in my line con stantly on hand. My stock is fresh and clean and your wants will be supplied at short notice. We have an especially well selected line of garden and flower seeds. H. F. Greiner ELEVENTH ST. COLUMBUS,NEBRASKA m CENTRAL CITt. From the Nonpareil. William Oarns, one of the old settlers of Merrick county, passed away at his home in this city on Wednesday even ing, July 15, 1908. The Union Pacific added another to its long list of victims in Central City Tuesday when Andrew Carlo, a section hand, was struck by No. 13, the local westbound passenger, and instantly (rilled. The section gang, under Fore man Tbomassen, was working about two miles east of town. The men had just finished their dinner and were returning to work when Carlo suggested to the foreman that they count the ties that had been put in that morning on the south or eastbound track. Accordingly, they started westward on the south track, Carlo counting the ties as they went, Thomassen walking ahead of him a few steps. Soon the latter heard a train approaching from the east and knowing it to be on the opposite track only stepped to the south side of the track on which he was walking, sup posing that Carlo would follow his ex ample. It appears, however, that, his mind occupied with the counting of the ties, he became momentarily confused when he heard the train, for he stepped aoroas the space between the two tracks and directly in front of the train whioh was running rapidly. No one saw the train strike him, bat the other members of the gang, who were on the north side of the traok, saw bis body as it was thrown into the air above the engine. The supposition is that the pilot of the engine struck him, as his hips were broken and the back of his skull orushed. His body was thrown fully seventy-five feet and a strange feature of the acci dent was that both shoes were jerked from his feet, one being thrown north and the other south of the tracks. His ankles were also broken. That Old Ham 'Bone. This need not be thrown away just because you have taken off all the slices. When you cannot get any more (apparently) scrape every ves tige of lean and fat from the bone. Chop fine and put in a baking dish. Add a layer of bread crumbs, then another layer of the meat, and so on, until all Is used. Pour over it a little water' and set in oven till nicely browned. Even the bone itself need not be thrown away. Crack well and let simmer for three hours. Add some rice, a clove or two, a few celery leaves (dried or fresh), and any vegetables, raw or cooked, that you happen to have in the pantry. So the ham will have done yet another faith ful service, for the combination of the savory soup, and the delicate baked ham, will make an appetizing and wholesome dinner. Sheep's Tongue with Spinach. Take six sheep's tongues, blanch them for five minutes to enable the white skin to be removed, then trim and put them in a frying pan with about a pint of broth of consomme (which can be bought in tins), one bay leaf, a little thyme, salt and pep per. Set the frying pan over the fire until it comes to the boiling point, then let It simmer until the tongues are well cooked and glazed, take them out, cut them lengthwise In halves and return them to the frying pan. Meanwhile dish some spinach, place the pieces of tongue over the spin ach, pour the gravy over and serve immediately. Put Pineapple Through Chopper. Slice and pare pineapples, then put them through a meat chopper. Save the hard center and put' through last. Save the juice and no water will be needed. It is much easier than cut ting pineapple with a knife. Mint Sauce. Take three tablespoonfuls of freshly gathered mint, chopped fine; dissolve two tablespoonfuls of sugar in three tablespoonfuls of vinegar; mix all to gether. Serve in sauce boat. 31 Fish Suggestions. Vinegar is better than ice for keep ing fish, and a fish often improvon iu flavor by putting a little vinegar on it. - Vinegar added to the water for boil ing any kind of fish, except salt fish, hardens the flesh and is a great im provement. While baking fish should be laid on strips of salt pork, as this not only im proves the fish but ket?.s It from stick ing, also. Chicken, Creole Style. Heat three tablespoonfuls of drip ping in a skillet and fry in it until light brown three sliced onions. Dis joint a large tender chicken, roll it in flour and fry it in the hot fat until brown. Place the chicken in a large heated casserole. Add to the fat in the skillet two tablespoons of flour and stir it until smooth; then add slowly one pint of strained tomatoes, three or four minced green peppers, one-half bay leaf, a sprig of parsley, minced, and a teaspoonful of salt Cook five minutes and then pour over the chicken. Bake two hours. Good Housekeeping. THE COLORADO SPECIAL. Electric Lighted Throughout.
