Mrs. Clara Churchill, of Coleridge, Neb . formerly Miss Clara Hawles. of this county, visited her relatives in this vicinity the fore part of the week, re turning home this morning accompani ed by herister. Mrs. Churchill has had a sad experience in the paBt few weeka. She was married but a short time ago to Mr. Churchill, of Coleridge, and her hus band was shot to death by a woman who had been his former housekeeper. The town board inform- us that they are determined to put a stop to those people, who adopt pugilistic methods for settling their disputes, electing the streets of Shelby for a fighting ground, by prosecuting every person who be comes a law breaker in this respect. And the board is to be commended for this. If people will fight let them go out in the bluffs by themselves where they are out of sight and hearing of every other person and if they have not cooled down by this time, let them fight t ill they consider the question settled.

Pugsley, who has been taking treatment in Columbue, returned borne Thursday, ss bis condition took a turn for the worse. John Terry, who was operated on for appendicitis at the hospital in Colum bus, is getting along nicely and will be brought home aa soon as be is able. D. W. Jenkinson is bneking witb his husking machine and be also bas an elevator to unload the corn in tbe crib. To a passerby this is an uncommon sight for this locality. Eight o'clock closing by Monroe merchants, which went into effect Mon day of this week, and is proving quite satisfactory. Tbe new arrangements are appreciated by both clerks and em ployers. Wm. Talbitzer returned Monday of this week from Alliance, where be went to consult the chief surgeon of the Burlington at that point. He was sent back here to take treatment at Colum bus, which be will do until the injured knee yields to treatment. Roy and Kingsley Thurston left last Friday evening for Oregon witb a car load of household good, their destina tion being about fifteen miles south of Salem, in that btate. Word received from them along the route says they are getting along nicely and will reach their destination this week. Mon row school will c'ose Tuesday even ing of next week for the remainder of Thanksgiving week. This extra vaca tion for Thanksgiving i because of the State Teachers' i ssneiation in Lincoln, which is held next week, so that tbe teachers may attend, and all tbe Mon roe teachers are at present planing to at tend the meeting. Chas. Potter is Gguring on an innova tion at bis farm home, at least it will be new for this section . tie is contemplat ing putting in a private electric light plant for his farm borne, the system to reach all buildings on tbe farm where light is used. He bas just completed a private garage for bis automobile and when the plant is installed this would be used for an engine and dynamo house. While the expense of installing such a light plant is considerable, tbe cost of running it is not large. beginning witb Monday of this week the primary room of the Monroe schools was moved into tbe new school building, just completed. With tbe addition of this building the much needed room is provided, and a re-arrangement was made in tbe large building. Tbe gram mar room was changed from tbe second floor to the first in the room occupied by the intermediate department, and tbe latter given tbe room vacated by tbe primary department. Tbe upper floor of tbe main building is devoted entirely to the High school, tbe recitation room now being in tbe room formerly occupi ed by the grammer department. Here tofore tbe High school has been crowded owing to the fact that there were three grades in it. and also two teachers. This addition is an advantage to the en tire school, as it gives ample room for the present. For tbe present tbe rooms will be heated by stoves, but it is only a question of a few years until some me thod will be adopted. HUMPHREY. From tbe Democrat Mre. F. M. Oookingbam received word from her neice, Errua South of 1 Keno, Okla., was elected County Super intendent of schools on tbe republican ticket by a big majority. Word was received Monday by Mrs. Peter Eisenmenger and Andrew Magsa men from Colorado Springs, Colorado, that their sister, Sister Beatrix, bad died in that city that morning. Mrs. Eisen menger and a daughter went out there Tuesday to attend tbe funeral. Carpenters and plasters have been busy the past few weeks finishing up tbe work on the new school building being built in District No. 76 known as tbe Bunker district, where the school was recently struck by lightning, and it and its entire contents were burned to the ground. The new school will be twenty feet wide and thirty-eight feet long. They expect to have the school open again about tbe first week In December. Last Tuesday evening Chas. Herz berg's residence east of town caught on fire and burned to tbe ground. Tbe cause of tbe fire is unknown. Mr. Herz berg was in town at tbe time. Mrs. Herzberg was busy preparing supper when she noticed that a summer kitchen which bad been built on the east side of the house was on fire. She immediately telephoned to town and ber neighbors, but before any of them arrived on tbe scene the house was one mass of flames. Everything in the bouse was burned, ex cept one bed and a trunk.

To unquestionably prove to the people that indigestion and dspep-iu can be permanently relieved and that Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets will bring about this result, we will furnish the. medicine absolutely free if it fails to give satisfac tion to any one using it. The remarkable success of Rexall Dys pepsia Tablets is due to the high degree of scientific skill used in devising their formula as well as to the care exercised in their manufacture, whereby tbe well known properties of Bismutb-Subnitrate and Pepsin have been combined witb Carminatives and other agents. Bismuth Subnitrate and Pepsin are constantly employed and recognized by tbe entire medical profession as invalua ble in tbe treatment of indigestion and dyspepsia. Tbe Pepsin used in Rexall Dyspepsia Tablets is prepared by a process which develops its greatest efficiency. Pepsin supplies to the digestive apparatus one of tbe most important elements of tbe digestive fluid, and without it the diges tion and assimilation of food are im possible. The carminatives possess properties which aid in relieving tbe disturbances and pain caused by undigested food. This perfect combination of these ingre dients makes a remedy invaluable for the complete relief of indigestion and dys pepsia.

Robertsen, of tbe Univer sity of Minnesota, says that infantile paralysis is as incurable as leprosy. Physicians have been unable to diag nose the disease and are as much in tbe dark as ever as to tbe cause of tbe scourge. Here is an item of information taken from tbe Washington Post which should be given general publicity: "My con gregation coughed this morning,?1 said a minister to a physician . "I could hard ly make myself heard, it was so annoy ing." "Well," said the physician, "the next time they cough tell them to press tbe upper lip just beneath the nose. Pressing tbe nose in that quarter will stop the most obstinate cough and, by the same token, it will stop a sneeze, too. I'll tell you how to stop the hic-conghs. You press bard on the cheek right in front of tbe ear. Those nerves there control tbehic-coughs as money controls politics. You need only press the nerve will do the rest." The Baptist Home Missionary Society got its wires crossed in some mysterious manner when tbe officers of tbe society sent a missionary to Genoa to convert the natives here. Miss Bessie Freeman arrived in Genoa from Chicago three weeks ago to do missionary work. She came under the impression that tbe town was without a place of worship, and was surprised to find six churches dedicated to tbe worship of God, and four resident ministers administering to tbe spiritual needs of tbe people. She realized that her services were not in demand here as a missionary, and so in formed tbe officers of tbe society in Chi cago. She received orders to report for duty elsewhere, and departed fcr tbe east Tuesday. UNION PACIFIC THE TIILE rvn WEST BOCSD.

Mies Maude Browu, formerly a teacher in tbe schools here, and whose borne was here, has been elected to the otlice of county superintendent of Park county, Montana. She has been teaching in the Livingstone, Montana, schools of late years. A Nebraska paper, whose editor isn't emulating tbe late George Washington, says that one day last fall a farmer weut out after a load of straw Having co pole with which to bind bis load he took his ax and commenced to chop down a stalk of corn for that purpose. He bad it nearly cut in two when one of the ears of corn became detached and fell crushing him to the ground It broke his neck and one of bis legs in seven pieces. He would have died but for tbe health giving properties of tho Nebraska climate, which made him a well man again before he bad walked half way to the house. Anybody can soil the reputation of any individual, however pure and chaste, by uttering a suspicion that bis enemies will believe and bis friends never hear of. A puff of. the idle wind can take a million of tbe seeds of the thistle and do the work of mischief which the husband man must labor long to undo, the float ing particles being too fine to bo seeu and too light to he slopped, ouch nre the seed? of slander, so easily sown, so difficult tube gathered up, and yet ho pernicious in thoir fruits. Tbe slanderer knows that many n mind will catch up the plague and become poisoned by his insinuation, without seeking the uuti dote. No reputation can refute u sneer, nor any human skill prevent mischieT . John Sule was seriously injured while working at the mill last Friday. He wa9 assisting in unloading wheat from a car, (they have a patent machine for doing tbe work,) when in some manner be became entangled in a pulley rope getting one foot through the coils. He was jerked up against the ceiling and down to the floor again every two sec onds. His leg was badly broken and splintered between the knee and ankle. In his frantic efforts to free himself be caught hold of tbe rope and bis arm was carried around tbe pulley badly bruising it but did not break it. Finally on one of his descends he had presence of mind enough to catch hold of tbe weight on tbe gear and release tbe clntch thereby stopping the machine. Others about him were powerless to help him. OSCEOLA. From the Record. On tbe seventh day of November was performed and celebrated the dedication of the St. Andrews Catholic church in tbe valley. Rev. Bishop Bonacum of Lincoln performed the good work. Af ter the dedication High Muss was read by Father Lutz formerly of here now of Bellwood. Father Charlrs of Smarts ville. Neb, with Father llennaso of Cen ter. Nebr., Futhtr Bickert of Shelby witb the pastor of Duncan assisted. Father Bess of Steiuhanser preached the beautiful and touching sermon Then the Bishop confirmed tbe children. Af ter the services a good and plentiful din ner and supper was eervad at the hull which was prepared by tiiu ladies of the parish. Over two hundred people being present. The evening was turned over to tbe young folks also a large crowd there. The Shelby orchestra furnished the much appreciated music for tbe oc casion. "There was a Bound of revelry by night," last Friday night, down at Shel by. We were not there und can furnish an alibi and good corroborative testi mony. However from those who were there and saw the performance, we are satisfied that it was worth the price of admission and that standing room was at a premium although there was plenty of running room for somo. Witb the ex ception of a few precincts, the returns are now all in and tbe tabulation is now going merrily on, tbe dead have been laid away, the wounded have been cared for and the prisoners have been paroled or exchanged and 'the white dove of peace is flapping both wings and such few tail feathers as were not pulled out in tbe encounter. It all happened as tbe result of a little scholastic round of foot ball in which the local team and Shelby team bad engaged during the day. We are not acquainted witb all of the merits of tbe contention and many deny that it bad any merits at all. It was one of those unfortunate affairs which both sides keenly regret and to which the Re cord adds its full measure of sorrowing consolation. PLATTE CENTEh From the Signal. A quiet wedding occurred in St. Joseph's churcb, Platte Center, at 8:!50 Tuesday morning, when Timothy J. Cronin and Mibs Nellie Kenton were united in the holy bond of matrimony by Rev. Father Angel us. The many friends of Mrs. Ernest Arndt will be pleased to learn that she was able to come to town last Thursday in an auto, the first time in several mon ths, Mrs. Arndt is slowly recovering ber health and strength after a serious operation which Bbe underwent a few months ago. Clemens, tbe fourteen year old son of Mr. and Mrs. O. Werahoff, sr., of the St. Mary's neighborhood, last Friday, in taking a sandbur from bis husking glove with his teeth got the bur stuck in his throat. Medical aid was called, but tbe physicians of Humprey were unable to give the sufferer relief. The boy was taken to a specialist in Omaha Saturday. He is a brother of Mrs. Chris Greisen of this place. One of tbe men with the gang that is setting new poles for the Bell telephone line bad a close call last Friday. He was at tbe top of a twenty-five foot pole that was being pulled into position when the pole, which was defective, broke off near the ground, throwing tbe man to tbe ground, and falling on him. In some mysterious way be received no I more serious injury than a badly sprain- tie can congratulate nimseu was no worse.

The assessed value of all property in Nebraska has in creased from $171,747,593 in 1900 to $398,985,819 in 1909. There has been no more important factor than the Nebraska railroads in creating this enormous wealth. The resultant prosperity has increased the value of the railroad. In 1900 the Union Pacific Railroad paid taxes in the State of Nebraska amounting to $299,855.44. In 1909 ft paid $578,112.44. Progress for the Union Pacific means progress for the whole state. Every mile of additional track laid, every train or station, creates wealth, which is not shared only by the Union Pacific Railroad but by every citizen in the State of Nebraska. 9 We have a book on Nebraska and its resources which will be mailed to some friend in the East for the asking. Please send us his address. Every Union Pacific Ticket Office is a bureau of railroad information. Make your wants known there, or write to me.
