Obituary..

Last Friday Mary Sornson, wife of
Nels Sorensen, just in the south edge
of town, died aud Monday the remains
were shipped to Harlan to be buried by
the side of others she had known and
loved.
The ever darkening shadow of the
black winged destroying angel has
desolated another home of that rare
jewel, a mother. A husband sad-eyed
and heavy of heart feels no longer the
breath of one he loves, and the child
rem no more shall know and experience
those happy Fluctuations a mothers
loving heart can give. But with the
flight OF years comes the healing lotion
of time to fit them for the the trials of
life and the hope beyond.
Last Sunday the people at the Meth
odist church got tired of the old-time
organ that has done service so long
and purchased, or subscribed enough
money to purchase fine new piano
for future use. The organ has seen
many varying changes in the church.
Has heard many different voices of
different choirs and pastors. Has peal
ed forth anthems of triumphant praise
and solemn death marches. Has peal
ed in gladness for blushing brides and
and happy bridegrooms and heard the
triumphant shouts of those born anew
to new life and the groans of sinners
in penitence bending. But now it
mustgo. New worlds of thought hang
trembling on the axis of new move.
ments and in the future the reed gives
place to the vibrations of strings, and
withal the old story changes not.

narried.

Christmas day witnessed the mar
riage of Charles Layland and Miss
Winfield Moon, at the home of her
sister Minnie.
Few people expected it and it was a
general surprise to the people. But
they are both young people who have
strong hold upon the hearts Of those
with whom they associate and have
many friends.
The groom is the son of William
Layland and is we'll known to many
men in the county who have always
found him an honorable and upright
man and abundantly capable of taking
care OF himself
The bride is the daughter of Joe
Moon and one of the teachers of the
county. She has grown from child
hood to womanhood in this county
and has wide circle of friends who
join in wishing her long and happy
life.
People seldom do deeds of charity
for public notice. nor do we speak of
acts to bring the people into conspic-
uous notice and we like those who do
the deeds would rather people, saw not
the people, OF the act, but rather would
look at the motive and then catch the
inspiration and determination, that on
next Christmas, they too would glad
den some little heart, who otherwise
might have to look with longing eyes
toward more successful children Be
fore Christmas day, Miss Lowene Van
Gorder went to nearly every street in
town, finding the names and number
Of children, who would not likely re-
ceive presents and then the day before
Christmas night she was seen with a
great load of things, gladdening many
poor little heart who otherwise would
have been hungering for some bright
remembrance. From this home Mr..
Van Gorder sent turkeys to numerous
families as did Mr.. Bilharz and many
other families remember the poor, but
let this be a remembrance to others
that" the poor ye have with you al
ways"

was practically ended Rubin gave
every appearance OF being distressed.
He said something 10 Billy Madden,
and then Denver" Ed Martin walked
to the centre of the ring and hailed
Referee Corbett.
1--WE give up said Martin, and the
fight was over.
The spectators rose as one man and
oheered the champion, while they de-
nounced Rubin as a quitter and faldr.
The police .tumbed into the ring.
stopped two fights in which Corbett,
the referee. and officers of the club
were involved The utmost excite
ment prevailed during which Rubin
made his wny out of the ring.
While some expressions we're heard
in the throng after the fight placing
the stigma OF a fake on the manage
ment, il was the conoensus of opinion
that Rubin fought a losing battle in
order to obtain the short end Of an
enormous prize.
10 is estimated that there was some
thing over $4,000 realized at the box
Office, and Of this 62h per cent. di-
vided in purses of 75 and 25 per cent,
goes to the participants.
On behalf Of Tom Sharkey. Tim Nc
Crath challenged the winner of the
contest
What Jeffries Says.
When seen in his dressing room
after the fight. Champion Jeffries said:
81 was surprised at my easy victory
and Ruhlln's amazing defeat While It
10 true that he did not punch me hard
enough during the five rounds to
cause me any alarm, | believed him
strong and cautious up TO the moment
OF his collapse and was surprised
when he quit certainly had no trou-
bic in whipping him, and had the fight
gone on the result would have been
the same. Rubin was inaccurate and
in poor wind, and | cannot say that
he even had the courage and force
that expected to encounter in him.
Rubin took a stiff punch in the stom-
ach in the fourth round which / pre-
sumo gave him trouble, nevertheless
expected him TO lose harder than he
did Rubin can doubtless best explain
his own position, and as for myself, /
am willing TO meet Sharkey next
month and thereafter to defend as
best / can the title ! hold"
Rubin Tries to Explain.
When Rubin went TO his dressing
room he was followed by a very de-
pressed retinuc The defeated man
complained OF no pain and moved
about without assistance He said:
Il believed from the start of the
gong that I would win but as the
fight progressed I was beaten down,
until received blow on the stomach
which / must say was very low. II
may not have been a foul, and no liv-
ing man could have survived it, JEFF
departed from the written rules and
from the common regulations Of box
ing when he threw himself upon me
and wrestled rather than spared.
do believe that had / not received
the stomach punch which ended me
in the fifth round I would have worn
down Jem a few rounds later and
beaten him as a matter of endurance
am ready to fight him again, and
believe that i'm time ! will have the
