morning and iff one of the fastest trains
on the road. The only marks on Tobias
were a long gash just back of the right
ear and a black eye. The body had evi
dently not been dragged by the train as
the clothing was not torn and there were
no marks in the gravel to indicate that
it had moved after being first struck.

A number of people on the route were
surprised when they learned of the
marriage of Hay Griffin and Miss Julia
Dorr of West Hill, at Worthington,
Minn., on September 15. Mr. Griffin is
well known on the route and his bride
has been a resident of the West Hill lo
cality for a n timber of years.
The rain Sunday night wet up the
ground in good shape, and will start the
fall wheat nicely. Jacob Smyer has a
field that he started to plant the last
day of August, and a good many said
that it waa too early. But our obser
vation has been that the early plowing,
and early sown wheat is the best, and
Jake's field is at present the finest on
the route. Now, watch next fall anil
see if ho doesn't have the beet crop of
wheat in this locality. He did this year.
James Tbomazin of this route and
Miss Lois McCombs of near Columbus
were married in Columbus Monday,
Rev. Kay of the Methodist church per
forming the ceremony, only relatives
being present. Jim, as everybody calls
him, is the third son of Mra. Geo. Thorn
azin, and has been farming the old
home place this year, and is one of She'll
Creek's prominent young men. The
bride is the only daughter of Mr. and
Mrs. It. W. MrCombs, living near Oo
lumbuB, but who, until a year ago, were
residents of the Shell Creek neighbor
hood . The bride and groom arrived on
the evening train, coming by way of
Tarnov, where they were met by the
Polish band and, as everyone who knows
Jim, knows they did not go away with
out a good treat. After a wedding sup
per at the home of Mr. Thomszin's sis
ter, Mrs. T. S. Uoare, they left for their
home on Shell Creel:, where about forty
of their friends were in waiting to give
them a good reception, and serenade.
scnurLER.
From the Ban.
Thursday afternoon of last week a
jury rendered a verdict of not guilty in
the case of the State of Nebraska vs.
Mrs. Martha Vincent, charged with
shooting George Sheldon with intent to
kill.
On Thursday afternoon of last week,
Walter the thirteen year old son of Mr.
and Mrs. 11. J. Little, living seven miles
north of Schuyler, was kicked by a horse
and was quite severely injured, having
both bones in his right leg broken be
tween the knee and ankle.
Last Wednesday afternoon Jacob Pa
cas, jr. and bis two children attended the
funeral of Joseph Cernin, who commit
ted suicide last Sunday night, the burial
being made in Clarkson cemetery. Re
turning home late in the evening, after
dark, they ate supper and the two child
ren Mary aged 15 and Adolph aged 12
went up stairs to retire for the night
leaving their father seated at the table
eating his supper. Shortly after going
up stairs they hrnrd the father call
"Adolph," ami a moment later they
heard a shot. Going down to the din
ing room they found the room in
darkness and the father laying on the
lloor lifeless. Mr. Pacaa had been drink
ing quite heavily of late and brooded
very much over domestic difficulties.
He was divorced from his second wife
here last May in the district court.
Joseph Cernin. aged 27 years, a farmer
living fourteen miles northwest of
Schuyler committed snicide last Sunday
night by jumping into a well and then
shooting himself. Mr. Cernin worried
much since receiving a summons to serve
ae a juror in the last term of the district
court. He dreaded the idea. In the
jury term of court just closed last week
he was one of the jurors that acquitted
Mrs. Vincent. Having served as a juror
only seemed to worry him the more.
About six o'clock last Sunday evening
after Mr. Cernin having returned home
he left the house and was never seen
alive afterwards. First taking the pre
caution to cut the telephone wires to the
house, he wandered down into the pas
ture, took a board from the top of a well
ten feet deep with about five feet of
water in it, lot himself down into the
well and then shot himself with a 33
calibre revolver in the right temple.

HUMPHREY.
From the Democrat
Last Sunday evening, whileeverybody
was in Humphrey attending the Mission
Services in 8t. Francis church the
school house in District No. C6, better
known as the Bunker school, was struck
by lightning and with its entirecontenta
was burned to the ground. Nothing
could be done to save any of the con
tents, for by the time the first people
arrived on the scene the building waa
practically consumed. The loss is es
timated to have been about $1,000. The
building and contents was insured for
$700. The school will be re-built, but
there will not be any school in the dis
trict this year. Miss Mabel Iagatrom
was the teacher.
Some of the Spalding people have a
grievance at the management of the
Albion fair. We know of three or four
Humphrey women who have a grievance
at somebody in Albion to. The ladies
in question went np to Albion one day
to attend the fair and on their way out
to the fair grounds and in passing they
dropped in to view the interior of the
beautiful Catholic church. The ladies
had heard thnt in previous years visitors
to the Albion fair had considerable
difficult in getting anything to eat, so not
being willing to take chances on a pro
position of this kind, they took a goodly
supply of lunch with them. Not caring
to carry their lunch to the fair ground?,
one of the lad its suggested that the
church would be a good and safe place
to hide their lunch, so they deposited
their packages behind the confessional.
All agreed that the church was about
the finest they bad ever seen, and then
they went out to do the fair pro(ier.
Returning in the evening they found
that somebody bad taken their lunch.
Now if that wasn't cause for a grievance
we would like to know what i9. And
say some of those packages contained
some of the finest spring chicken that
ever crossed a fence.
GENOA.
From the Time.
The day previous to the one on which
Wm. Gillespie met with the accident
which resulted ho fatally, his brother,
R. W. Gillespie, of Boone county, broke
his right arm while leading a horse to
water.
Frid Jernberg turned over to Sam
Anderson last Saturday a check for

Joe Krause has a field of corn planted
in Jnne that will yield twice as many
bushels per acre as some fields planted
three weeks earlier. There is also a
field of corn on the Indian school farm
that was planted in June and which has
matured rapidly. If the frost holds off
a few days longer the qunlity of the corn
will be first class and the yield np to
the average of other years.
About the only relic left by the Mor
mons who settled here sixty years ago
and were compelled by the government
to vacate the land as it was an Indian
reservation, is a door taken from a log
cabin that stood on the Indian school
grounds in the early eighties. The door
was placed on the roof of a small brick
building near the government barn, and
the carpenters shingled over it.
Since the present superintendent took
charge of the Indian school, he has aim
ed to improve the finality of stock on the
school farm. There are now in the
school herd ninety head of Holsteins,
some of them registered, and a finer lot
of cattle of this breed cannot be found
in Nance county. Two thoroughbred
Percberon mares have lieen purchased
for breeding purposes at a cost of 1,300.

A Cargo Hard to Handle.
Asphalt Is said to be the most diffi
cult cargo for a vessel to unload. The
asphalt Is taken out of tho asphalt
lakes in Trinidad in a semifluid state
and by the time the vessel reaches a
northern port has hardened, so that
to unload it it is necessary for the men
to go into the hold and dig it out with
pick nnd shovel. This takes time, and
a vessel carrying such cargo always
has to arrange for a considerable stay
in port

A WITTY PASHA.
Ma TaW the Missionary a Story te Pit
the Occasion.
Official bribery is common in the
cast, and it Is a tender subject there,
as a humorous story told by the late
Rev. H. H. Jessup, D. D., In his book.
"Fifty-three Years In Syria." bears
witness.
One day in 1S73 Dr. Van Dyck, man
ager of the press in connection with
the work of propaganda of the Syrian
Protestant college at Beirut, was sent
for by Kamil Pasha, the governor, to
come to the serai, as he was about to
shut up the press for a violation of the
press laws. Dr. Van Dyck proceeded
to the serai and asked the pasha what
he meant
The pasha, holding up a little tract,
said, "Was this printed at your press?"
"Yes."
"Then it must be confiscated, as it
contains an attack on the Turkish government"
"Wherein." asked Dr. Vnn Dyck.
"docs it attack the government?"
The pasha pointed out several pas
sages which criticised the bribery and
corruption everywhere prevalent, per
jury and lying among witnesses and
public officials and the fact that "truth
had fallen in the streets and equity
could not enter."
''Arc not these statements true?"
said Dr. Van Dyck. "Your excellency
ought to put a copy into the hands of
every government official in your pa
shallc. Is it not so?'
"nave yon never heard tho story of
the Cadi el Ah War?' asked the pasha.
"And what is that? queried the doc
tor. "Well," began the pasha, "once there
was a famous one eyed cadi Cadge).
One day a man came to court and ad
dressed him as follows:
"'Good morning, O one eyed cadi!
May your day be blessed, O one eyed
cadi! I have heard of the noble char
acter and justice of the one eyed cadi,
and I would ask the distinguished nnd
revered one eyed cadi to do me jus
tice, and
'Stop! Interrupted the cadi. 'Sup
posing I am one eyed, do I want to be
everlastingly reminded of it? Get out
of my sight!'
"And so." concluded the pasha, "we
know that these reflections on our
country and our courts are true, but
we don't want to be publicly reminded
of it!"
ANCESTRY.
Some Famous Personages to Whom It
Meant Nothing.
The making famous of the expres
sion "I am tay own ancestor" is usual
ly credited 'to Andoche Junot, for a
time a marshal of France. Junot had
risen 'from the ranks and became the
Duke of Abrantcs and an important
figure at Napoleon's newly formed
court One day a nobleman of the old
regime asked him what was his ances
try. "Ah. sir," replied the spirited sol
dier, "I know nothing about it. I am
my own ancestor." Probably be had
never heard of the similar remark
made by Tiberius about Curtius Ru
fus. "He seems to me to be descended
from himself."
Napoleon's reply to the emperor of
Austria was in a kindred vein. The
Austrian when Napoleon became his
prospective son-in-law would fain have
traced the Bonaparte lineage to some
petty prince of Treviso. "I am my
own Rudolph of Hapsburg," said Na--poleon.
Under similar circumstance
Napoleon silenced n genealogist.
"Friend, my patent of nobility dates
from Montenotte." his first great vic
tory. When Iplchrates. the Athenian gen
eral, had It cast up in his face by n
descendant of HarmodJus that he was
a shoemaker's son he calmly replied.
"The nobility of my family begins
with me; yours ends with you."
Almost the same words were used
by Alexander Dumas when asked If be
were not descended from an ape
(covert sneer at his negro grandmoth
er). "Very likely my ancestry begins
where yours ends."
Voltaire in his "Merope" says: "The
first to become king was a successful
soldier. He who serves well bis coun
try has no need of ancestry."
Conquered the Orchestra.
In his early days DTerr Arthur NI
kiscb. the famous conductor, was ap
pointed to conduct a performance of
"Tniinhaetiser" at the Leipzig opera.
He was but a young chorus master at
the time, nnd the orchestra absolutely
refused to play under so youthful a
conductor. They were only induced to
do so when n director said that if they
were of the same mind after the over
ture had been played they could then
and there hand in their resignations.
The overture was a veritable triumph
for Nlkiscb. and with profuse apolo
gies the orchestra offered him their
congratulations. London Tit-Bits.
Dodging the Bore.
The tardy clubman paused at the
door of the smoking room.
"Bingley." he asked, in a whisper,
"has Slodger given out the dally state
ment of his health and told all about
his symptoms yet?'
"Yes." said the man inside the door,
"He's just finished."
"All right, I'll come in." Chicago
Tribune.
An Unfortunate rtesponsa.
The problem of too many churches
In a given locality is often a perplex
ing one. It is said that the churches
In a certain village, on opposite sides
of the streets, were so close that when
the congregation in one church sang
"Will There Be Any Stars In My
Crown?" the congregation in the other
church promptly responded, "No. Not
One; No. Not One" Fortunate is it if
the seeming .contradiction is confined
to the unintentional inharmonious re
sponses in songSw Llpplncott's.

PIRATES OF HONGKONG.
They Are the Real Old Fashioned
Bloodthirsty Kind.
There are pirates In Ilougkoug not
the usual kiud that greet the gentle
stranger with an expansive smile and
take what he has for worthless rub
bish, nor yet the petty thieves that go
by that name on our own water fronts.
but the real old fashioned, murderous
kind, who count not the victims as
they reckon the spoils.
Of course they do not swagger in cos
tume, as all real pirates should, or ply
their trade in Hongkong's immediate
waters, but among the thousands of
fishermen, stevedores and coal han
dlers that crowd tin hnrlair's edge they
mingle and gossip water front news,
knowing well when a particularly rich
cargo is due from the Interior.
And In the purple twilight a junk
darts out of one of the many estuaries
far up the West or Pearl river and
swoops with the suddenness of a hawk
on the heavily laden prize. The strug
gle is short. Over the hills on the
naked backs of a swarming crew the
loot disappears forever from a smoking
hulk In the rice swamps, or. ns hap
pened in the case of the Sainam. half
a hundred take passage in the crowded
hold of a river steamer and when the
handful of unsuspecting whites gather
at dinner raise a heathenish yell on
the startled air. and the ship is taken.
Rifles thrust through bolted doors
subdue the pitiful tire that lasts a lit
tle while from behind tho shot torn
tablecloth, but the ship is already
beaded for the bank by the quarter
master with a rifle at his ear. and one
more tragedy is added to the long list
of crimes on the Sikiang. W. J. Ayl
ward in Harper's .Magazine.
Suicide by Swallowing Gold.
Suicide by swallowing gold is some
times accomplished in China. The
following is au authoritative account,
written by a very lennud t'hinese for
the Westminster Gazette, of how this
much contested form of suicide is ac
complished: "Iu swallowing gold it Is not loose
gold leaf or gold dust that Is swal
lowed, but a solid lump of gold, or
even a gold ring, weighing about half
an ounce. Gold ! not at any time
of a corrupting nature, but when a
lump of it is swallowed and gets into
the bowel it falls, on account of its
intrinsic weight, to rise and surmount
the convolutions of the bowels and
can therefore never complete its pas
sage. After two or three days it there
fore sinks through the bowel and de
stroys life without any suffering."
Laughter.
Without laughter the human race
would hare wept Itself to death or ex
terminated Itself long ago. Pathos Is
beautiful: tragedy Is absorbing. But
both pathos and tragedy are instantly
routed by the laugh.
