Jorgen Hansen, of north Sharon
township, has purchased Chris Hem
riksen's S0-acre farm south of the
Sharon creamery, paying S3s per
acre. We understand that Mr.. Ham
sen does not intend to occupy the
farm himself but will rent it out to
some responsible party between now
and spring.
Caspar Jensen, a young man who
has been making his home in north
Sharon township, the past year, has
gone to Ross to accept a position as
assistant at the Ross creamery with
Bertel Jensen. Caspar has had some
experience in this line of work in
Denmark and should prove a very
valuable man.
Chris Petersen, the contractor was
busy the first of the week tearing
down the old hotel building at Kim
ballton, better known as the "Trav-
eller's Home. +" Thus another old
landmark that served the public for
many day and served its purposes
well, has vanished and gone-gone
with the fleeing wings of time.
Last Friday night the home of Mr..
and Mrs Nels Jensen, of Elkhorn.
was the scene of gay party of
merrymakers who had come to help
Mr.. Jensen celebrate his 3Sth birthday
in due style and manner The event
was also the sixth anniversary of the
wedding day of the host and hostess,
so the occasion was doubly impor-
tant. The happy couple who were
somewhat taken by surprise, were
the recipients of some very beautiful
and valuable presents. 1t was most
pleasant and enjoyable affair and the
twinkling stars had already began tot
blink in the early morn when the
guests took their departure.
We learn that Mr.. Lauridsen, of
Brayton, concluded not to accept the.
proposition of putting in a meat MARI
ket at Elkhorn. The deal will not
go begging however, as Mis- Larsen
and Willads Rattenborg have decided
to engage i'll the business at once with
vim. They purpose putting in a
market at Elkhorn tirst-class in every
respect and in connection will run
wagons through the country to sup
| ply the demand of the farmers. Mr..
Larsen is closing out his confection-
airy stock this week so as to be less,
hampered in his new venture. This
makes very strong firm and we pre-
dict for them unlimited success.
s. T. kaae, the proprietor of the
Boston store at Elkhorn came near
meeting with serious accident last
Wednesday evenining while return-
ing from Harlan with a big load of
holiday goods. A deep rut in the,
road caused breakdown Of his wagon
and 5. Z. was thrown out, his right
foot catching in the spokes of the
wheel. Before he succeeded in stop
ping the horses he came very near
having limb twisted off and to cap
the climax about half the load came
/ tumbling off and buried him beneath
! an avalanche of boxes. In response
to his calls for help neighboring far
mers came TO the rescue and extricat-
ed him from his perilous position.
He was able to reach Elkhorn that
night himself and had his load taken
in the next day. Ii was a hard trip
/ but the little nobleman still lives and
is able for duty.
