Monday, September 2(5. at 12::t0 p. m , Nathan Doxey passed suddenly away from the scenes of this life. Although very old and feeble, Doxey was appar ently feeling as well as UBual for some time, when all nt once he passed away, j presumably of heart trouble. For some years he hftB made his home with his daughter, Mra. Sol C. Towslee, and was there when death occurred. Mr. Doxey was born at Albany, N.

The train was wrecked on a long trestle, a portion of which had been washed out by a Hood caused by the re cent late rains in that vicinity. News of his death reached St. Edward late last Friday evening. He had been ab sent from St. Edward only a few days and was on his way to eastern Colorado where he had filed on a homestead.

He was leading this team behind his buggy and it is supposed that they were the cause of the accident. Mr. Gillespie was taken at once to his home where everything hus been done to resuscitate him. His most dangerous injury was a blow on the head which has caused a blood clot to form at the base of the brain. Con sulting physicians have decided that an operation to relieve this condition is not advisable. Mr. Gillespie has at no time regained consciousness. ALBION. From the Nowh.

It seems strange that a trade which pays the highest wages agoing should not have plenty of applicants. It will be recorded that the first frost or the rail of HUO came Sept. 27 in this locality. It was light, especially on the higher ground and did practically no damage. It followed a spell of wet cold weather and it may be some time before another one visits us. The farmer who will spend one dol lar and fifty cents an acre in the con- Mxuctionof a modern highway will im mediately realize an increase from ten to twenty-five dollars an acre to the value of his laud, in addition to the great saving in the coBt of transporta tion, and the value of having nn acces sible market every day in the year. Until farmers recognize the difference between a wise business investment of that kind and the extreme folly of pay ing tribute from their net earnings to maintain mud roads, the highways or Nebraska will not be improved. Fre mont Herald. One day last week, Geo. Grndon and Harry McOonnell each got a letter from the post-office, both mailed from some town in Colorado, the imprint of the mailing stamp being so dim ns to be un readable. Both letters contained a scrap of newspaper enclosing a twenty dollar bill and n five dollar bill. There was not a scratch of writing to indicate who the sender was, and neither of the recipients have the least clue as to their identity. Their exact similarity in every respect, except the handwriting which was evidently disguised, would indicate that the same person sent both. The mystery needs a Sherlock Homes to unravel it. A Hard Problem. A certain debating society is discuss ing the question as to which is the an grier, the husband who goes home and finds that tin dinner is not ready or the wife who has dinner ready and whose husband does not come home.

Mr. and Mrs. Jacob Smyer returned Thursday morning from their visit to the old home in Indiana. While there bad been many changes sinoe they left, they enjoyed a very pleasant visit. Henry CXayburn still believes in the road drag, and the road at his place shows it, for after each rain he hitches up and drags his part of the road. Henry is ail right and so is the road drag. Wm. Webster left Thursday for Los Angeles, Cal., where he will attend the bankers' convention, and from there he goes to San Francisco, returning from there with his family, who have been in the west for some time Louis and Will Jones sold the old home place this week for $77.50 per acre to a German, Elliot, Spiece & Co. making the sale. The boys have not as yet de cided what they will do as they still own an eighty in that neighborhood. Mr and Mrs. F. A. Matson were guests of relatives and friends in Monroe and vicinity last week. This is the first time, since leaving Monroe, that they have been able to visit- here at the same time, bnt now that Frank is on the road for an implement firm be took the op portunity to visit Monroe at that time. Thursday Mrs. D. W. Ziegler received a telegram from Chicago telling her of the death of Mrs. E. P. Hornbostel in that city the same day. Mrs. Hornbos tel was a resident of this locality about twenty years ai;o. living on the place now owned by Cbas. Potter. No other particulars were given in the message. Chas. Watts has leased the Wilson building, just west of the livery stable, for a term of five years, and the switch board of the Monroe Independent Tele phone conlpany will be moved into it as soon as possible. And in addition to changing the switchboard the company expect to make quite a number of other improvements in this locality. The Jencka building, which will be vacated by Mr. Watts, has not as yet been rent ed, bnt parties are expecting to use it for a dwelling this winter. J. Will Campbell, who will succeed B. S.

The last year he has been located at Gam bridge, Nob., but he expects to make Monroe his permanent residence. PLATTK CKNTKB Prom the SUtnaL There seems to be a great amonntof building going on among the farmers this fall. Material is being hauled out almost continually and lumberyard em ployes seem to be kept on a jump all the time. The freight trafio on this branoh of railroad hae become so heavy lately'that it cannot be bandied on time and the freight trains, especially those going south, are from one to four hours late. Frequently the morning train has to be cut in two to get over the hill south of Platte Center, notwithstanding they arc hauled by two engines. A large acreage of winter wheat has been put in in this vicinity this season. The weather was favorable for early plowing, consequently the wheat was sowed early and the majority of it is up, and many fields of the earliest is already nearly covering the ground. Experience has taught farmers that the earlier the land is plowed and the seed sowed the surer they arc of a good crop. Last week Messrs. Adolf Schmidt and Ed J. Mark bought of the heirs of the late Thos. Jones the old Jones farm in Joliet township, consisting of 160 acres . Schmidt getting the 80 on which the buildings are located, and Mark the other eighty. This farm is the one on which the Postville postoffice was locat ed until rural free delivery put it out of date. The price paid was 877J per acre. Adolf will move onto the farm March 1st. Mr. and Mrs. Emil Schoen went to Madison Tuesday evening, called there by the death of Matt Zambrucn, Mr. Schoen's brother-in-law which occurred last Saturday evening, at his home near Madison. He had for some years been afflicted with hay fever which had grad ually weakened his system. He was not confined to his bed until Friday, and his death came very unexpected. Mr. Zum brunn and his family were former resi dents of Grand Prairie township, this county, and he was well known here. They moved to Madison county some eight or nine years ago. He was 42 years of age. He is survived by his wife three daughters and one son. The funeral was held from the Reform church at Madison, at one o'clock Wednesday, and interment made in the Madison cemetery. To Be Neble.

POWDER QKHOA. From the Times. A writer in the Lincoln Journal, who recently visited Nance county, says: Nance county was once the PawBes Indian reservation, aad every once in awhile some of the old burying places in the vicinity of Genoa are uncovered. Fallerton is located on a part of the old reservation. Its first resident was Ran dall Fuller, for whom the town was named. Way back in 187G Fuller lived ia a little aback on the to wnaite. A abort distance above town lies the farm where Alfred Bixby. father of the Journal poet philosopher, A. L. Bixby, located when he came down from Minnesota in search of a climate that included more than three months of good weather. "Biz" helped break the greatest part of the farm land, and later edited a paper in the town. He also won the title of "Doc." through his essaying to heal the physical ills of bis fellows. A heartless board of health ended his usefulness in that line by asking him bothersome questions One of the little tales of interest the visitor hears is how a Penn sylvania man got rich through trouble that came upon him at home. He was mixed up in tho star route scandals of many years ago, nobody-knew just bow, aad came west until things blew over. He had money and be invested it in Nance county lands when the govern ment was selling them for a song after the Indians had been moved away. He purchased about five thousand acres for 910,000, and although he long since died back in his old home, whither be return ed a short time after his trip to Ne braska, his heirs still own the lands. Their present worth is in the neighbor hood or $400,000. Along the south side of the Loup valley is a lot of bad land or at least it was so considered by the first settlers, being sandy. On this Jim North, of Oolumbus, years ago, located about twenty-five families of Polanders. They extracted much riches from the soil, living very frugally and working hard. They have made so much money and have increased so greatly in num bers that they crossed the valley and are buying the $90 an acre lands north and west of Genoa. HAIR HEALTH.

One thing not commonly understood among civilians is the completeness of the barrier which divides army offi cers from the soldiers, or, as they are more generally called, the "men." It Is always vastly amusing to those fa miliar with the service to observe the errors in this respect frequently made by the novelist and the playwright Personal qualifications have nothing whatever to do with the matter. A soldier may be a gentleman who has enlisted with the purpose of obtaining a commission, yet there can be be tween him and bis officers no social intercourse of any sort, and severe penalties would be inflicted upon the officer who would attempt to disregard the rule. .It might seem that this enforcement of a caste sense would result in much bard feeling on the side of the men. Such, however. Is not actually the case. It Istaken for granted and rec ognized as conducive to "good order and military discipline." It Is a mili tary regulation like any other and im plies no disgrace. Directly a soldier's enlistment is out or directly he rises from the ranks the prohibition is re moved. Delineator.

It is a sin to make a picture of any living thing The elaborate decorations of the pal aces and mosques of the east are al most exclusively made up of ingenious ly interlaced geometric designs, ara besques or flowers, intermixed with sentences of tho Koran. There is a belief among Mussulmans that at the day of Judgment Allah will demand that the artist who has made, the image of a living thing shall endow that image with life and that, falling to do this, the artist will be sent to perdition for his sin. A gentleman who visited a mosque in Algiers found that the tiles with which the building Is decorated, which are very old and very beautiful, are adorned with flights of birds. He ex pressed surprise at this and asked if the command against such representa tion were a modern edict. "Oh, no," answered the pious Alge rian to whom bo addressed the ques tion. "These are not pictures of liv ing birds." "But they are painted as if flying across the tiles." the other said In some astonishment. "Yes," the Mussulman replied, "but do yon not see that about the neck of each there Is a fine black line? That Is to show that the artist painted only dead birds, and the command of the Koran is not violated." The Astonishing Part. Lord Townsbena at the battle of Dettengen was standing quite near a drummer boy whose bruins were dash ed out by a cannon ball.
