Hans Hansen, of the firm of Jensen
& Hansen in Poplar, has workmen
busy on a fine house that is being
built on the hill south of town.
When it is completed it will be one
of the incest in the country. We
rather believe Hans will not long re-
main bachelor after it is finished.

This will be the last week of the
business directories. We believe
much good has come from them to
the various towns. We have heard
much comment on them from various
parts of the county and even from
away from home. The people now
have better idea of the towns and
their business and the journal has
received much praise for having given
this knowledge to the people.
Rev. b. P. Jensen, of Neua, Wis.
was in Elkhorn last Sunday and helps
ed to install Mr.. Klever as the new
manager of the Orphans Home. He
was assisted by Rev. Kilsild from
Racine, Wis, Rev. Brede johnson,
who will preach at Botanic and the
pastor of the church here. The new
manager has good farm in Michi.
gan and pleasant home but has
rented it that with noble self sacrifice
he may care for the little ones at the
home.
Henry Hoogensen, of jackson town.
ship, was taken to the hospital at
Clarinda Thursday. His mind had
become deranged and Wednesday he
attempted to end his life by taking
strychnine. The timely arrival of
Doctor Bisgard, however, prevented
the dose from being fatal. Mr.. Hoo
gensen is one of Shelby county's
prosperous farmers and one of it's
most highly respected citizens. He
is fifty four years old and is the
father of nine children. He has lived
in the county for many years and has
always been known as an honest,
industrious man who always showed
good business judgment. He was
sociable and his home was always
open to neighbors and friends who
often enjoyed his genial hospitality.
None of his ancestors or relatives have
eyer been known to be afflicted in
that manner and no cause can be
assigned for his mental condition.
He has shown a rather melancholy
disposition for the past several
months but it was not regarded as
anything serious. -Harlan American.
Last Friday evening when Prof
Nielsen and his bride arrived at the
college in Elkhorn, they went into
the kitchen and were greeted by the
two girls who had prepared their
supper and the two ministers and
their wives who were to sup with
them, and looked contentedlv about
at the table, tastefully arranged for
them and their guests. They then
o'oA wa " iOoo tuO way W lu0 parlOr
and opened the door when there was
such burst of melody from hechoir
that it almost made them lose their
nerve. Then fifty young people filed
out and showered their best wishes
upon the newly welded couple.
After this the hungry travellers sat
down and ate their supper midst the
pleasant hum of young voices glad
they were in their midst. The pas
tor of the church spoke few words
to all as did the other preacher. Prof.
Nielsen then in few timely and we'll
chosen remarks, told them how glad
he was to receive such a welcome and
thanked them for their presence. 1t
was a notable gathering and one that
places the Prof. and his bride in a
warm place in the affection of every
person present.
