ALBION. From the Nen Mr. Cunningham admitted while in town the other day that he. was probably the raus'e of the recent dry spell, although unintentionally no. Ho finally asked Mr. Day his opinion a, to why it didu't rain and was told it was only waiting for him to coinmeuce cutting alfalfa. So they hitched up four teamB right away aud went to mowing. It was raining before they got around ouce. Noel Watson is confined at his home with a broken anklo as the result of a fall which he had while working on M. K. Whalen's new barn lait Wednesday. The scaffolding on winch he was work ing at the top of the building gave way precipitating him to the second lloor. His left ankle was broken in two places and the other one sprained A physi cian was called and the rmcture reduced. His father had heen working on the same tcauolding with him but a few minutes before it gave way. having got ten down to get some nails Meyers found the bottle and wrote to Miss Launer. She answered. Six mon ths ago the couple wanted to" wed and in the absence of parental consent, start ed to elope, but were overtaken by the girl's father. The necessary consent was obtained last week and Saturday the couple were married in Omaha. 11KM.WOOII. From the (iaiettf. Fresh tyi-h will bink when placed in water ami lie in a horizontal position.

CENTRAL CITT. From the Nonpareil. Fred Parks, foreman on T. B. Hord's ranch east of town, got into an alterca tion with a mule Friday and came out of the mix-up with a badly cut scalp, lie wa driving a bunch of the mules in the pasture when one of them got too close and struck him on the back of his head with its hoof. A long scalp wound was intlicted, but the injury will not be senoiiB. Realty & Hubbard's ditching gang has completed the ditches on Jos. Qaw's farm and the Hord section and are now working on Nels Hampton's farm. Mr. Hamilton expects to have a ditch about a hundred and sixty rods long made across his farm. The work has pro ceeded very satisfactorily so far and is being pushed rapidly. With everything favorable tin- gang is able lo complete one hundred rods of ditch a day. The horses are changed every lifteen or twenty miuutes, the work being very heavy. The machine makes a very clean, neat ditch and one that will carry an abundance of water. It was not so very long ago that one of Central Cit's ministers, on one of his round of calls, rang the hell at a certain home anil was met at the door by the five-year-old son of the family. The mother was upstairs when the bell tang and as she hurried down she was horri fied to hear her youug hopeful informing the caller that "Mamma don't want to buy anything today." Before she could get to the door the minister had reached the street. On a subsequent occasion he called again, the lady meeting him at the door this time. He was ushered in and as they sat chatting there was a territlc explosion in the kitchen. A hasty inves tigation developed that the son of inde pendence had this time put three can non crackers in the stove and the noise that resulted was equal to an admiral's salute. When ttie minister calb at that home now the son and heir is locked in the coal shed. M0NB0. From the Republican. Mrs. Henry Olayburn and daughter Pearl are visiting Mrs. OUyburn'a sister in South Dakota D. J. Gleason left last Friday for Buckley, 111., called there by the death of his uncle, Dennis Gleason. Monroe teachers attending the county institute at Columbus this week are the Misses Anna Potter, Susie Smith and Nellie Gleason. On Tuesday morning Will Talbitzer and his family came for a vi6it with the home folks. Will looks as if he had come ont second best in an encounter with a saw mill, but is on the highway of recovery now. Albert Carper was called to Salt Lake last Saturday on account of his sister being shot, and at the time he started she was not expected to live. A let'er from Mr. Carper says that she is still alive ami there are still hopes of her re covery. The annual school meeting for district No. 7 will be held at the school house on Monday, Juue 27, at 10 o'clock a. m. Besides the election of two members of the board, the advisability of adding an other grade will be discussed. The two members whose terms expire this year are O. W. Talbitzer and John Gibbon. We clip the following from the Mo Cook Republican of last week. The many friends of Frank Smith, son of G. C. Smith formerly of Monroe, will be glad to learn of bis success since leaving here: The first of the month U. P. Sutton, the well known jeweler of this city, took into business with him in the jewelry store, his son, Harold P. Sut ton and Frank Smith, and the tirni will be known hereafter as the Sutton Jew elry Company. Both young men aie well know to the citizens, Harold having lived here since he was a babe. He graduated from one of the leading opti cal schools of the country the first of the year. Frank Smith has been head watchmaker for Mr. Sutton for the past four years and has since made friends with all whom he haB come in contact. He is an expert workman, and this com bination should make an ideal firm COLUMBUS All Is Not Lion That Roars. A negro was arrested for stealing coal and employed n lawyer of loud oratorical voice to defend him in a justice court. "That lawyer could roar like a lion," the negro said. "I thought he was go ing to talk that judge off the bench and that jury out of the box. I got one continuance and hurried up to burn all that coal and hide the evi dence. Then came the day of my trial. That roariu lawyer went up and whis pered to the judge. Then he came back and whispered to me: " You better send that coal back or you'll co to 1ail.'

Laniberson of Osceola waB on the South Omaha market last week with a bunch of heifers that sold at the top of the market for that kind of stuff at $7.10. These cattle were purchased at Colum bus last December and put on feed about the first of January. They were fed mostly alfalfa hay with a mixture or corn. When bought last fall they weigh ed 350 pounds and when weighed at the yards today they tipped the beam at 647li pounds. Through the courtesy of Uncle Wil liam Vau Hooeen the editor of the Rec ord had the privilege of seeing the final discharge of the first veteran volunteer in the U. S. army in the civil war. Mr. Van Hoosen enlisted June V-i. ISf.l. in Co. I, First Iowa cavalry, and veteran ized Dec. U, 18;:J. at which time he was the only man to respond to the call of Gen. Steele under whom he served, although the rail was for :I00 men. Mr. Van Hoosen at that time went on a vet eran furlough. President Lincoln did not affix his signature to the act provid ing for volunteer veterans till the 22d of December, but having already re enlist ed, Mr. Van Hooeen hail that much time advantage of those who yet veteranized and as he was the only man in the com mand of Gen. Steele who accepted the offer at the time, his claim to this distinction appears to be well establish ed . The attention of Congressman II l n - shaw has been directed to these facts and in all probability Mr. Van Hoosen will receive metited recognition.

Frank and George Wittier received word yesterday morning of the death of Frank Weibel at bis home at Jonesboro. Ark., due to an illness of several months duration. The deceased will be remem bered by many Humphrey people as he made his home hete with bis parents ror several years, moving to Arkansas several years ago. A pretty wedding was solemnized at St. Francis Catholic church, at nine o'clock, Wednesday morning. The contracting parties were Miss Helena Weber and Mr. John J. Theisen. Rev. Father Uilde brand was the officiating clergyman, who tied the nuptial knot whirh united the lives of these estimable young people of our city. On Tuesday morning at St. Francis ohurcb, occurred the marriage of Miss Frances Olmer to Killian Ottis. At about nine o'clock Mr. J. E. Hugg came to the home of the bride and took the wedding party to the church in his auto mobile and as the beautiful strains of the wedding march, rendered by one of the Franciscan sisters, tloated through the church, the bridal party marched up to the altar, where Rev. FatLer Ililde- brand spoke the words which united the two hearts for the remainder of life's journey. GENOA. From the Time?. Mrs. Joseph Tarnick, who has been serionsly ill for the past faw weeks, was taken to the Columbus hospital last Saturday, where, it is hoped, careful nursing will restore her to health. Word has been received in Genoa that Amos Munson and C. A. BrookB, went to the Frnitland Valley district or Utah fourteen month ago. have struck a rich deposit of lava polishing dust nnd are now numbered among the plutocrats. Having readied the nge or 70, Moses W. Canon, a member or Genoa Lodge. No. 141, Ancient Order of United Work men, has made application for a final card and the return of the money he ha paid into the order on assessments with interest on the amount at the rate of I per cent per annum . At a special meet ing of the lodge held last Monday evening, the application of Mr. Cannon was granted, and the papers properly signed were sent to the grand recorder of the state jurisdiction Tuesday, who, on receipt of same, will forward Mr. Cannon a draft for 107.K0. At the last session of the grand ledge of United Workmen a law was parsed which allows all members of the order who have reached the age of 70, to withdraw, nnd by surrendering the lienefieiary certifi cate, ri ceive back all the money they have paid on assessments, with interest milled . PLATTK CENTHU From thnSiirnnl. Last Friday Charley Bacon was com pelled to take to bis bed with what his physician pronounces typhoid fever, and has been quite sick since, although his symptoms nre somewhat Iietter now. We hear of several parlies in Platte Center who dug potatoes large enough toeatoutof their gardens the fore part of last week. The strange thing about this is that the late fronts bit the vine." nnd thay never blossomed. A number of people from town attend ed the funeral of Mm. John T. Kvans lost Saturday, which was held from the Welsh Methodist church near the homo, nine miles northwest. It was the larg et funeral Hint has been held in that locality for years, and was a manifesta tion of the high esteem in which Mrs. Kvans was held among her neighbors and acquaintances. Mr. and Mrs. Mike Jones, of Burke, South Dakota, Mrs Edith Henrinhnnd Mrs. Lizzie Spangler, of Yemette, III., were present. These ladies are sisters of Mrs. Kvans. Her uncle, Hugh llnglies. of Columbus, was also present. I.OCA1. KKI'KKSKNTATIVi: Salary l to JI.V) month.

Sh rill ui'! .tr ! the prot;rnm at CHAUTAUQUA The Voracious Cormorant, now n cormorant dives for sea trout and sets them is told by a writer: "I had the cormorant under observa tion only for the space of four or live minutes, mid during Hint short period it had captured four sea trout, all of considerable size- After being under water for :i few seconds the bird would reappear with a sea trout wrig gling in its bill. Kilt in spite of the victim's desperate efforts lo escape it xr-is ileftlv swallowed, nnd after :i few- gulps the cormorant would resume its fishing operations. One of the sea trout gave it considerable trouble, how ever, for the lih struggled violently for some moments, but was deftly placed so that its head pointed down Its captor's throat, mid thus its own struggles assisted the bird to swallow It. After a time the cormorant niisinl Itself in the water. Happing Its wings vigorously, as though to help it pack away its heavy repast, and then ro?e heavily and winged its way up stream." Simple Transaction. "I like de 'pea ranee o dat turkey misht v well." said Mr. Johnson after a long mid wNlful study of the bird. The dusky inarketnian seemed strange ly deaf. "How could 1 What arrangements could a pusson make dat wanted to buy dat turkey?" Mr. Johnson asked after a pause. "Easy terms iiougli," said the inar ketnian briskly. "You get him by means o a note o hand." "A note o hand." repeated Mr. John son, brightening up at once. "Do you mean I writes it out and pays some time when" Hut his hope in this glo rious prospect was rudely shattered by the uiarketinan. "A note o hand means in dis case," he said, with disheartening clearness, "dat you hands me a two dollar note. Mr. Johnson, and I hands you de tur key in response to dat note." Otprauing Sights.

One thing is definitely shown by the tests that have been made for color blindness In various races no race, however primitive, has been discov ered in which red-green blindness was the universal or general condition, and this is a tact of some interest in con nection with the physiology of color vision, for it seems probable that red green blindness bince it is not by any means a diseased condition represents a reversion to a more primitive state of the color sense. If this Is so no race nf men remains in the primitive stages of the evolution or the color sense.
