Almost Fatally Poisoned.

At supper on Monday evening Mr.
A. II. Campbell and his daughter,
Miss Georgia English, remarked up.
on the creamed eggs, of which all
had eaten heartily, as tasting queer
ly. None of the rest of the family
noticed 1t, and nothing more was
thought of 1t for an hour or two, when
both Mr.. Campbell and Miss English
began to suffer from nausea. Their
illness was not violent and in the
morning when the doctor was called
he prescribed for them for the grip.
All day Tuesday they suffered more
or less, but their condition did not
excite alarm until about seven in the
evening, when both were taken with
violent vomiting, Mr.. Campbell par
ticularly having such violent spasms
and suffering such intense pain that
it seemed as If he could not live
through 1t. DIR. Chastain was called

both remained with the patient for
several hours. Under the influence
of opiates he at last became easier,
and in the morning the doctors report
ed both himand Mise English out OF
danger, greatly to the relief of their
anxiousifgiends.
1t is a well known fact that nearly
any kind of food at certain stages be-
comes poisonous, and in this case 1t Is
supposed that one of the eggs used in
preparing the dish was just at that
stage which made 1t poison instead OF
food. The escape was certainly anar.

An Old Soldier Dead.

Tuesday afternoon, Mr.. Clarke, an
old soldier, who made his home with
his daughter, Mrs. Ramsey, in the
southeast part OF town, stepped out of
doors and the cold air brought on a
violent coughing fit. The spasm so
wracked him that he sank down in
the room and in few minutes died
his heart having been affected and
stopped beating. He was subject to
heart failure and the violent cough
ing caused the fatal attack.
Mr.. Clarke was comparative
stranger here. The G.. A. r. post he'd
meeting at 2o'clock and took charge
of the funeral, which took place from
the Ramsey home at clock, inter-
ment being had in lola cemetery.
The bereaved family have the deep

VIII Begin Tomorrow

Agent Cozad has received notice
from 1.-THE general offices of the Mo.
Pac. at st. Louis that the new train
to be run between lola and LsHsrpe
of which the REGISTER has already
given due notice, will be put on Sat
urday, Feb. 4.
In the Instructions accompanying
the notice the, following statements
are made:
Single trip tickets from lola to La
Hsrpe or vice versa, will be sold for
five cents. Also a ten ride ticket
reading between lola and LaHarpe
will be sold at rate of fifty cents
This latter ticket will be limited for
80 days. The idea in providing the
ten ride tickets Is that there may lie
many who would prefer to buy q
number of tickets at once rather than
make the change each time.
Ii is distinctly understood that
these low rate tickets are good on
this train only, and that II presented
on the regular trains between lola
and LaHarpe the conductors will
take them up and collect the full fare
of seventeen cents. 1t il understood
also that in no case Is the low rate to
he used in connection with the sale OF
tickets to points beyond lola and La
Harpe.
This train will make four trips
daily, as previously scheduled in
the REGISTER, and will stop at Cas-
City and Lsnyonville. While in
tended specially for the accommodation
of smelter men, it will be available
for the general public. For the
present the train will consist of an
engine and one passenger coach.
And 30 another long step in Iols's
road to greatness is taken, for with
this train the continued supremacy
of lola as the central city of this gai
field il assured. 1t is worth more
than another smelter would be for Il
binds all the smelteTs to lola.

The weather of the past week in
lola has been 30 numerous and varied
as to suit the most pampered taste.
Friday was u lovely fall day, but
Saturday the dreams of rosebuds and

icy air which put white snow coat

decent, but cold, and on Monday
morning it was showing again as II

ternoon, thanks to the universal rum

that way until Wednesday when 1t
showed again more or less all day.
Thursday it looked very much like
