Word was recently received here OF
the death OF Edmond, Robinson on April
22d at his home in Rock county, Nebras-
/ ka. Mr.. Robinson was the first settler
on the present town site of Audubon
He settled here, from the best we can
learn, in about 1868 when this part of the
county was bleak and unsettled
prairie. He built little house on the
location where the cottonwood trees now
are near the North Western depot.
where the Heibel house now is He
simply squatted on this land, surprising
it was open to homestead, but when he
tried to get his title he found the land
belonged to the Rock Island Rail Road
company. He gave peaceabe possession
to the company and they gave him
few acres in the vicinity of his house.
He moved away from here several years
ago. At the time of his death he was
fifty four years old. He visited his
friends here only few months ago. Mr..
Robinson is spoken of by the old settlers
as having been a man of industry and
possessing many good qualities.

advantages of a college education. His
talk was we'll appreciated by the

Mr.. Hooker is trying to organize an
anticipation league in the B algebra
class.
The school entertainment will be
given in the Presbyterian church Fri

the school liabrary.
The B algebra is having some "stun

The high school base ball team of this
place had agreed to play return game
with the Atlantic high school team, but
the Atlantic team, on thinking matters
over and remembering Audubon's strong
players, evidently got scared and abso-

That shows our team is getting way up
reputation in base ball as we'll as in
other things. They will play Manning
return game Decoration day.
Prof. Hooker received a communica-
ton this week admitting the Audubon
high school to the list of schools, the
graduates from which are admitted to
the freshman course of practically all
colleges in the state without more
preparation. Our high school is some
thing to be proud of.
