The following article is incorrect
in the statement that the Little Falls
HOtel Co. is at Little Falls MINI.
The fact that it's ''assignment' was
made at Louisville, indicates where
it is controlled.
From the Louisville Courier Journal Nov IS, 1891.
The Little Falls Hotel Company
at Little Falls, Mimi, Made a deed
OF assignment yesterday morning to
Peyton N. Clark. The liabilities are
estimated by the company at $25,0O0
with assets about the same sum.
The assets will probably he less how
ever. The President OF the company
is E. NJ. Hubert. Mr.. Clark, the
assignee, says the assignment was
merely formal, and only made in
order to wind up the affairs Of the
company.
The hotel company is said to be in
no way connected with the Little
Falls Improvement Company nor
with the Little Falls Water Power
Company, in which so many Louis
Vile men are interested. The chief
part of the stock is owned here, but
it is SO scattered that no one holder
will sustain any great loss.
The Little Falls Hotel Co., is of
Louisville, KY, and not of Little
Falls-none of it's officers ever being
Little Falls people. The Little Falls
people however gave bonus in land
to the company which today is
worth many times it's debts. The
affairs have been managed for
some time past by Peyton N. Clarke,
of Louisville. We are not having
failuresand assignments at Little
Falls, but general prosperity.

LOWER GRAIN RATES.
The Missouri Commissioners Request q
Reduction.

The Missouri Commissioners Request q
Reduction.
JEFFERSON CITY, Mo-, July 1.-THE
state board of railroad commissioners
has made the following order:
On Tuesday. July Z, the commissioners
made an inquiry regarding the rates in force
for the transportation of grain from Mis-.
souri, points to St Louis. For the purpoS
of proper investigation they had cited the
traffic managers of two of the principal lines
running into st. Louis to be present at the
inquiry to cause why a reduction in existing
rates aforesaid should not be made. A
full dscu sion of the matter was had, with
the following results:
1t agreed that reduction in wheat
rates should be made over the territory af-
fected by the existing rates, said reduction
varying in accordance with the varying con-
ditiOnS governing from l to cents per l01
pounds, the average reduction being about
SIS per carload. The reduced rates are to be
put in force as soon practicable, the un-
Outstanding being that. If not promptly put
in force, the commissioners will make their
order compelling the reduction to take ef-
feet on the day after the receipt thereof by
the proper officer of the railroad upon which
said reductions are made.
This notice is made public for the reason
that letters are constantly received at this
Office in regard to the wheat rates and urg-
ing the commissioners to take some action
to bring about reduction therein. 1t is
deemed pro per to make the notice in this
way without waiting for the tariff OF
rates, the matter being one in which a very
large number Of citize ms of Missouri are di-
rectly interested.
By order OF the railroad and wareho use
commissioners JAMKS HARDING.

He Gives Up His Own Life But Saves His

CHICAGO, July S.-A sensational train
wrecking is being Investigated by the
Chicago, Milwaukee & St Paul road.
The wrecking occurred near Lansing,
Ia, July 4, and has, up to this time, es-
capped publication. A prisoner was to-
day taken into custody at Lans-
ing, and the officials are on the
track of his three confederates.
The McGregor passenger train
bound for La Crosse, Wis, with several
cars heavily loaded with passengers
when near Lansing struck an obstruc-
ton placed upon the rails and the en-
CINE was hurled over the bank into the
Mississippi river. Fortunately the cars
remained on the track. the engineer,
Charles Todd, giving up his life to save
his passengers.
The fireman jumped and saved him
self. The engineer reversed the lever
and opened the sand valve SO that the
cars might stay on the rails. His
first question when rescued from the
ruins of the engine, badly scalded
and writhing in agony. was if any
passengers had been hurt. Upon re-
ceiving the negative answer from the
passengers who crowded about him,
Todd smiled as he looked around.
"Well, this is glorious Fourth we are
having. l am afraid we had too many
fireworks" Todd died shortly after
wards. The culprits are said to be

STOCK ITEMS.

It is only in exceptional cases that it
will pay to fatten stock in hot weather.
Keep in a good, thrifty condition and
fatten when the weather gets cooler.
Hogs like q wallowing place in hot
weather, yet should not be compelled
to drink water from such place. The
wallow is not SO bad If they can have
pure. fresh water to drink
If the sows cannot be bred so as to
farrow early in the fall. so that the pigs
can get good growth before cold
weather sets in, as a general rule it
will be best not to- breed until fall
If oats are to be fed out to stock ON
the farm, it is adding to the expense to
thresh them. They make better and
more wholesome feed to run through
cutting box, while there is little or no
waste.
When the mares are depended upon
to help with the spring crops, in many
cases it will be best to breed so that
they Will foal late, as mare can do
more work while in foal than when
sucking colt.
A reputation for breeding good horses
is valuable to any man, and the way to
acquire it is to begin now if you have
not already done SO. Buyers will go
where they know they can get what
they want, and a community establish
ing a reputation for good horses will
never be troubled with surplus stock.
A common cause of bad feet in the
horse comes of letting the animal stand
on plank floors laid on an incline, with
spaces one inch or so apart Standing
on such floor one side of the web of
the shoe is liable to drop into the open
space and so turn the foot, and the
horse is inclined to travel with his an
kle twisted, which causes him to cut it.
Many seem to think that a hog can
not be overfed and that it makes no diff
ference if they do leave a lot of feed at
one meal they will come back and eat
it up when they are hungry, so that
there is nothing wasted after all, says
a writer; but it is possible to go to the
other extreme-to either feed too little,
so as not to secure steady gain, or to
feed too much and so increase the cost
as to materially lessen the profits.
Feeding too little is a loss, while feed
ing too much is a waste.
When a COW that is near her calving
time continues her flow of milk and it
is inclined to increase, she should be
MIXED clean at every milking. regard
less of other conditions. The only OBJ
lection that can be urged to this course
is the drain upon the system and, con-
sequently, weaken the unborn calf.
By extra care and feeding, a calf arriv-
ing weakened by sach a cause may be
nursed into a robust and growing con-
dition, but an udder once impaired,
even slightly, can never be restored to
its full measure of value and that OF
the COW for dairy and breeding pur-
poses will be proportionately lessened.

AWFUL TRAGEDY.
The Terrible Work Of q Crazy Nebraska
Farmer-Kills His Wife Children and

The Terrible Work Of q Crazy NebraskD
Farmer-KilIs His Wife Children and
Himself
ELLIS, Neb., July IL About
o'clock yesterday afternoon Mrs DIR.
Allen, of Beatrice. came to Ellis on
visit to her brother, John II. Puter-
baugh, who lived mile and half
south of town. She was driven to the
farm by Louis Perling and knocked at
the door. but receiving no response en-
tered. the door not being locked
As she entered Mrs Allen saw her
brother lying on the floor near the
door and supposed he was asleep. She
spoke to him. but there being no re-
Spouse looked more closely and saw
blood on her brothers CHASTITY face
Mrs Allen called Perling in and he
made an investigation and found hor-
rible state of affairs
In bed in room in which the hus-
band and father lay was the mother,
with a bullet through her head. In
bed with her was two-year-old baby,
also shot through the head.
On lounge in the room lay lad of
10 years, dead, shot through the head.
In the room above was another bed,
occupied by two young girls, one 13
in their heads
The dead were John Puterbaugh, his
wife and four children.
The general belief is that the terrible
deed was the work of the husband and
father, but no motive can be found as
he was a peaceable man in comfortable
circumstances and it is believed that no
trouble existed in the family.
It seems certain that terrible crime
was committed by Puterbaugh- By his
side under his arm lay 32-caliber six
chamber revolver with all the cham bers
empty.
The scene in the house was horrible
one and made the strongest hearted
turn away. The faces of the dead, al
though covered with blood, were as
calm as though sleeping. No signs of
fear were portrayed on any of them and
there were no evidences of struggle.
All seemed to have been killed while
sleeping and to have been shot directly
through the skull. In every case the
pistol was placed close to the head, as
the powder stains were visible upon
| pillows or bed clothing.
Puterbaugh was not a drinking man,
and had the reputation of being honest
and a good citizen. He suffered from
the grip last spring and since then had
! not been in the best of health, subse-
quently complaining of a pain in his
head. He was a man about IS or 40
| years of age.
Mrs. Puterbaugh was a year or two
| younger. The murdered children were
aged as follows: Carrie, Is years; Ma
| bel, Is; Charlie, 10, and Ralph, 2.
One son survives-Allen, II years of
age. He was away from home at
work, having left Wednesday last
Puterbaugh was in Beatrice Wednes-
| day, and it is said he then purchased
| the revolver with which the deed was
committed.
