    HAPPENINGS IN
THE JIAGIC CITY
Sheep Farmer From Near
Newman Grove Makes Pile
of Money in Few Months.
AGED WOMAN FOUND DEAD
'One thousand sheep, (our months'
eare, $7,000 net return.
Jens Paulson, a "sheep king," who
has charge of one of the minor "gold
mines" of central Nebraska, the par
ticular vicinity being Newman Grove,
is the beneficiary. Mr. Paulson early
last October put to feed in the neigh
borhood of 1,000 lambs he had pur
chased at $973 per hundred on the
local market, the original buy aver
aging 47 pounds.
'Wednesday Mr. Paulson brought
the lambs back in the form of full
fledged sheep and marketed them at
$13.95, or as high as. was paid for
western lambs on the market. The
consignment scaled at 84 pounds
average, or a gain of 37 pounds in
four months, in addition to the in
crease in price of $4.20. Bringing
these figures down to terms of a sin
gle head, it is shown that the actual
cost of each lamb was $4.58 and the
actual selling price per head was
$11.71, which left $7.13 for Mr. Paul
ion to pay for the cost of feeding
and handling the lambs.
Find Body of Aged Woman.
"Granny is dead," a small voice
piped over the wire to Sergeant Bill
Smith at the South Side police sta
tion late yesterday afternoon. "Please,
ir, is Captain Briggs there?" The
small one was gratified in his quest
and in another five minutes the big
South Side captain was. headed to
wards the packing house district.
In a-shed, on a little stool, her
gray hair covered with an "old-country"
shawl, sat 'tJranny." The po
licemen were led to the shed by the
two grandchildren, Sophia and John
ny Vorsdak, each 12 years old. who
had discovered the body.
The two grandchildren, leaving
their books at home after school, im
mediately sought the aged woman's
cottage. They searched the three
rooms, all spotlessly clean and tidy,
bat found nothing but a burning
kettle of soup on the small two-hole
jack stove. They searched the prem
ises and at last located "Granny" in
the coal shed, where she probably
had sat still a moment to rest
Undertaker George Brewer took
charge of the body.

FORTY-ONE ABOARD
CALIFORNIA PERISH
Armed Liner Struck by Tor
pedo Just After Training Gun
in U-Boat's Direction.
OIL BUBBLE ON THE WATER
London, Feb. 9. The British pas
senger steamer California of the An
chor line, bound from New York for
Glasgow, was torpedoed at 9 o'clock
Wednesday morning off the Irish
coast and sank in nine minutes, with
the loss of forty-one lives. The
stricken ship was able to send out
"S. O. S." calls and help arrived
promptly. Nevertheless five persons
were killed by the explosion and thirty-six
were drowned in the launching
of the lifeboats.
News of the sinking of the Califor
nia reached London yesterday after
noon before the survivors had landed,
but publication was not permitted un
til more than twenty-four hours later.
An Armed Liner.
The California was an armed liner,
carrying a single 4.7 gun mounted on
the stern. The gunner was just train
ing the weapon on the spot where
oil bubbles revealed the presence of
the underwater enemy when a tor
pedo struck the port side with an ex
plosion so violent that most of the
people aboard were thrown off their
feel, five being killed and a score In
jured. A second torpedo followed in an
apparent effort to accelerate the sink
ing, but the second shot missed, al
though both torpedoes were fired
from a distance of less than 300 yards.
There was only one American
aboard . the California, John A. Lee.
and he is among the survivors. ,
Conduct Exemplary.
Captain Henderson, commander of
the California, declares that the con
duct of the passengers and crew was
exemplary, I here had h-en careful
drills on the ship on the way across,
and every person aboard had been as
signed a place in a lifeboat and pro
vided with a lifebelt. But, despite the
coolness of the passengers and the
seamanship of the crew, the success
ful launching of the boats was made
impossible by the shortness of the
time between the torpedoing of the
vessel and its disappearance beneath
the waves, which did not permit wait
ing until the ship had lost headway.
While the boats were being lowered
from the sloping decks the California
continued to move forward, lurching
like a drunken man, and the roar of
water rushing through the gaping
wound in its side could be heard
above the shouts of officers and men.
In a number of cases it was necessary
for the passengers to jump into the
boats after they were in water and
in one case a boat with its appor
tioned load was swamped and sank,
many of the occupants being swept
under the ship before the other boats
could give help.
Sea Is Glassy.
Some of the lifeboats in the after
part of the ship were actually in the
wate'r when released from the davits,
so rapidly did the ship settle by the
stern. A considerable number of the
crew jumped from their stations into
the sea and swam to the boats. It
was extremely fortunate that the
weather was calm and the sea glassy;

Asks Kaiser Grace
For Bernstorff Ship
New York, Feb. 8v-The Ger

by the Scandinavian-American Una
to assure safe passage through the
recently defined war sone for the
steamer Frederick VIII, on which
Count von Bernstorff, the former
German ambassador, and bis party
will sail for home February 13.
This assurance, officials of the line
here laid today, it requested in
addition to the life conduct
through the blockade tone asked
for by the American State depart
ment and promised by Great Brit
ain and France,
otherwise it probably would have
been impossible to launch a single
boat.
The townspeople (name of port
omitted) who crowded the quays,
carried blankets, clothing and food,
and were eager to be of tome assist
ance to the survivors when they were
brought ashore. Aside from those in
jured, few of the survivors needed
much help, but some were thinly clad
and gladly accepted gifts of clothing.
Naval and military Red Cross con
tingents were present to care for the
injured, who were removed to hos
pitals. Just One Submarine.
According to reports received by
the American embassy from some of
the survivors, there was only one
submarine, which, however, fired two
torpedoes, one of which missed by a
few yards, the other hitting the Cali
fornia squarely on the port quarter.
It was the captain from the bridge
who discerned suspicious oil bubbles
on the surface of the water 300 yards
'distant. He instantly divined that a
submarine was tnere and ordered tne
gunner to fire. Before this could be
done the ship was torpedoed. The
track of the torpedo and the periscope
of the submarine conld be teen, but
no warning waa given and the sub
marine did not speak the boatt after
the survivors were in the water. Cap
tain Henderson and the other officers
remained ; aboard the California until
the ship went down. Among the of
ficers missing are Chief Engineer
Smith, Engineer Cunningham and
Third Officer Simpson.

SWEDEN REJECTS
WILSOfS APPEAL
Refuses to Join With United
States in Breaking: Off Re
lations With Germany.
IT WILL REMAIN NEUTRAL
Stockholm, Feb. 9. (Via London)
The Swedish government rejects
President Wilson't tuggestion that
other neutral countries Join with the
United States in severing diplomatic
relations with Germany, and declares
itt Intention to follow the strictest
neutrality as long as It Is possible.
Sweden's reply was delivered to the
American minister today.
"The government of the United
States has chosen as a means of ar
riving at the realization of peace a
method absolutely contrary to the
principles which have guided the pol
icy of the Swedish government up to
the present hour."
So declares the Swedish note,
which the minister of foreign affairs,
K. A. Wallenberg, delivered to the
American minister, Ira Nelson Mor
rit, in reply to President Wilson't
invitation to Sweden to join with the
United States, which Mr. Morris
communicated to the Swedish govern
ment Monday.
The note says in part:
" Th policy followed by the royal
government during the war hat been
one of strictly impartial neutrality.
The royal government has done
everything m its power to fulfill all
the datics which this policy imposes
upon it and at the same time it hat
rendered effective at far at possible
the right! derived therefrom,
"With a view to obtaining a prac
tical result in upholding the principles
of international law, the royal govern
ment hat several timet addressed it
self to neutral powert in order to ef
fect cooperation, with the aforesaid
object in view. Above all, ihe. royal
government has not failed to submit
to the government of the United
States a proposal to this effect.
"The royal government hat ob
served with great regret that the in
terests of the United States have not
permitted It to accept thete proposals.
"The royal government, supported
by public opinion, confirmed by the
unanimous solicitation of the coun
try's representatives, intends to fol
low in the future, at in the past, t
policy of neutrality and impartiality
toward both belligerent groups, and
it it not proposed to abandon this
policy unless the vital .interests of
the countrr and the dignity of the
nation oblige it so to do."

Why Rheumatism Come?
With Cold Weather
(By Valentine Mott, Pierce, M. D.)
A close connection exists between
these two cold weather and rheu
matism. Prof. Alex. Haig, of Lon
don, has tKe most followers in tht
medical profession in the belief thai
the presence in the system of uric
acid, or its salts in excess, is the real
cause of rheumatism. Every one has
recognized the difference in the ap
pearance of their water as soon as
it gets cold; there is often a copious
sediment of "brickdust." -
Several causes may lead up to an
accumulation of uric acid in the sys
tem, which, in turn, cause rheumatisre
or gout, or creaky joints, swollen fin
gers, or painful joints.- For one rea
son the skin does not throw off tht
uric acid, by profuse sweating, as ii
the hot weather, and the kidneys are
unable to take care of the double
burden. Another reason is that peo
ple do not drink as much water in
cold weather as in summer, which
helps to flush the kidneys. Again, they
eat more meat in cold weather, and
some people are so' susceptible that
they soon develop rheumatism after
eating meat.
At all such times persons should
drink copiously of hot water, say, a
pint morning and night, and take
Anurie (double strength) three -or
four times a day. This Anuric comes
in tablet form and can be had at al
most any drug store. It dissolves the
uric acid in the system and carries
it outward. I would advise everyone
to take Anuric occasionally, and con
tinue for three or four weeks, and in
that way avoid rheumatism, gout and
many of the painful disorders due to
uric acid in the system.
