Farm for Steinke Clothing
Stock in Atlantic.

A deal was concluded this week
by which Ben Nellis and George
Young formerly of the L. D. Nellis
& Co., general merchandise firm,
traded the big Schwenneker farm
they got last fall to Steinke of At
lantic, for his big clothing stock.
Mr.. Steinke had made deal last
fall by which he traded off every
stitch of old goods he had in the
house for Missouri lands and all
now is new. We understand he
now expects to locate in some larger
place.
The new firm will be known as
Nellis & Young and step into a big
concern established and we'll
grounded. AS business men in this
town they met with very general
success and all will regret their
departure from our midst.
They will begin the invoice
Immediately and Mr.. Young ex-
poets to have charge by the twenty
third day of the month. All their
old patrons here wish them
prosperity and success in their new
line of business.

Editor ournal:-Permit us to say
your paper that the Extra

but of the future. The Extra

cooperative and there will be no

CHRISTMAS WEDDING.
Wedding Surprise to Relatives
and Friends.

Lafayette Simpson and Kath-
ryn Connrardy were quietly mar
ried Christmas day at the home of
the brides parents in the south
part of town, the Rev. w. w. Hart
sough performing the ceremony
before only the immediate rela-
tives of the contracting parties.
The wedding came as surprise to
all their friends as the bride has
been in Lincoln, Nebraska, all fall
attending college and the people
were not in keeping with events.
The groom is the son of Mr.. and
Mrs. Ben Simpson of Stillside farm
east of Brayton. He has inherited
the keen business ability of his
parents and is young man we'll
thought of in his community and
wherever he is known. He is a
hustler and not afraid of work and
will be able to hue his path along
life's pathway.
The bride is the daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. John Connrardy and one
of the bellies of the town. She has
grown from infancy in this com
punity and as womanly ways and
actions came to her friends have
bespoken for her life's companion
whoever he should be, helpful
| helpmate. She has kind and Low.
ing disposition and those womanly
graces that weave a web around
human hearts and binds them
close to her through all coming
time.
Thus have the holy ties of wed
lock been spoken, the pledges made
the voyage started along life's un
even pathway. Dangerous shoals
and whirling maelstroms lie in thei
path. Their missing them lies
with themselves. They are tn,
pilots and the guides. Their many
friends join in wishing them !;
pleasant journey over sea "cloud
less save with rare and roseat
shadows" their home bower musi
cal with birds that will syllable
only words of help and cheer.

A BANK CHAN G E 5!
N. P. Christensen Sells Business,
Building and Good Will to Leet &
Boysen, of Audubon.
Mr.. Christensen will remain Resi-
dent of Extra but devote his en-
tire time to Real Estate.

One of the biggest deals in the
commercial world of Extra is the
selling of the business, building
and good will of the Stuart Bank Of
which N. p. Christensen was
cashier, to Leet & Boysen OF Audu-
bon, they expect to take possession
Jan. 9Th. Mr.. Christensen has had
this in view for some time as the
land business has taken up more
aud more of his time until he felt
he could no longer properly look
after the affairs of the bank al
though the volume of it's business
has been constantly increasing.
1t was no desire of Mrs. Stuart, the
president of the bank to quit, the
point only on the urgent request of
Mr.. Christensen. He and his clerks
will remain in the bank until all
the books are properly closed and
the new firm acquainted with the
depositors and patrons who he
hopes will give, the new firm the
hearty support he has always en-
ioyed. He wishes it understood
however that his trade mark "The
Honest Real Estate Dealer" does
not go with the deal, as that is his
to be retained until death and then
inherited by N. p. c. Jr.
The new firm is well known in
the banking world and bring to the
town one of the strongest financial
concerns in the west. There credit
is unlimited in eastern markets and
they have big outstanding loans on
real estate and plenty more to put
out in the future.
The new bank will be known in
the future as the Merchants and
Farmers Bank. Frank Leet will be
President, Asnus Boysen, Vice
President and ]. E. Mcclure will be
Cashier.
Mr.. Mcclure has been cashier Of
the Farmers Exchange Bank al
Gray. for the same company the
past year and has become valu
able factor in that community. His
immense popularity there as bust
ness man and his courtesy tt
, his patrons has wonderfully in
creased the volume of their bust
. ness and proves him an able cash
} Ter. He is well known to most O
3 our citizens and will make a goo,
| citizen for the town.
