PLATTsMOUTH, Neb., March 6.-CSpe-
cial.)-John Meyer. a farmer residing near
this city, was making some repairs ru his
barn, and while digging a hole for one of
The corner posts, he brought to light an
old rusty tin can.
The weight OF the can and the fact that
a wire was wrapped around il to keep the
cover on, Indicated that 1t contained valu-
ables. Investigation showed that the find
contained a gold watch, six $40 bills. a set
Of silver spoons, several gold rings and
other. small articles.
The watch proved to be in fairly good
condition, although IL will need some re-
pairs before II will perform good service.
The bills we're also In a fair state OF
preservation, indicating that they had not
been there for any length of time. Tie
strange feature connected with the And,
however, is the fact that the teaspoons

and placed them under the barn until

A cold is the beginning of catarrh. It
may cause catarrh OF any OF the internal

Spring storms Expected to
BE Heavy,

CHEYENNE, Wyo., March 6.-(Special.)-
Unpleasant weather has prevailed in this
section for two days. Tuesday night con-
siderable snow fell and for the last thirty
six hours the country has been enveloped
in a heavy fog. The mist freezes to every
thing it touches and this has added dis
comforts to those who are compelled to be
out Of the range. This kind of weather
does stock no good and owners are in any
thing but a pleasant frame Of mind as a
result. Stock is getting weaker, the supply
Of hay is growing smaller and smaller and
unless a very early spring prevails the
losses in this state will be considerable.
SYBILLE. Wyo.. March 6.-(Special.)-
Stock in this section is In poor condition.
Nearly all ranchmen are short of hay and
