The following clipping from the
David City Banner concerns F. F..
Ware, one of Norfolk's new citizens:
y. F. Ware came in last Wednesday
evening from Norfolk, and packed up
his household goods for shipment to
that place, where he has recently To-
Gated and engaged in the drug busi-
ness. He has also purchased fine
residence property there. Mr.. Ware
returned to Norfolk on Friday even
ing but Mrs. Ware visited with rel
atives at Surprise and Miss Ada and
Joy visited here until Tuesday, when
they all departed for their new home.
Mr. Ware was engaged in the drug
business here for over ten years and
built up a large, prosperous business,
and his numerous friends and custom
ers very much regretted his retire
ment from business in our city. Mr..
Ware concluded to retire from bust
ness and take rest for the benefit of
his health, but like all other energetic
business men he could not stay re
tired" He was like a fish out OF
water until he was again located in
business. The many friends here OF
Mr.. Ware and his estimable family
wish them success in their new home
Mr.. Ware is now settled in his new
home, recently purchased on North
Ninth street. He says that he hopes
to treat the people fairly and to be
given a fair amount of patronage il
the drug business. He will have {
first class drug store in Norfolk as
soon as he gets settled in the new
store, Koenigsteins old stand, ana
will have for sale everything TO be
found in an up-to-date store.

Cuban Diarrhoea,

U. S. soldiers who served in Cuba
during the Spanish war know what
this disease is and that ordinary rem
edies have little more effect than so
much water. Cuban diarrhoea is al
most as severe and dangerous as a
mild attack of cholera. There is one
remedy, however, that can always be
depended upon as will be seen by the
following certificate >from Mrs. Min.
ME Jacobs of Houston, Texas: Il
hereby certify that Chamberlain col
ic, cholera and diarrhoea remedy
cured my husband of a severe attack
of Cuban diarrhoea, which he brought
home from Cuba. We had several
doctors but they did him no good.
One bottle of this remedy cured him,
as our neighbors will testify, | thank
God for so valuable a medicine" For

GRASSES IN SANDY LAND
CONGRESSMAN klNkAip TELLS
OF EXPERIMENTING.
90 PERCENT IMPROVEMENT
Bronze Grass, Which Mats the Sand

For Hay, viii Wonderfully Improve
the Sandy Lands OF the State.

lfTOm lnnfSuHN = bHllN,I
Congressman M. p. Kinkaid OF
O'Neill. who represents the big Sixth
district in Washington, was in Nor.
folk today on his way from Anoka to
Holt county. He had been north on
the Bonesteel line for the purpose Of
inspecting the grasses which the gov.
ernment has been starting in the
Sixth district by way of experiment.
ing.
1--WE are very much interested all
north of the Platte river in grasses,
said the congressman. "The grass is
vital thing in our stock country
advocate that all flesh is really grass
for the cattle are made of grass and
we eat meat, 1t is therefore a vital
thing. We have been looking for a
grass which will grow on the sandy
lands and make hay. We want 1t tc
grow long, and our experiments thus
far have been more than satisfactory
Bronze Grass Great Stuff.
"The alfalfa has done very well,
continued the congressman, "but
bronze grass has done much better
and this alone is going to make oul
country 100 percent better than Il
ever was before. The bronze grass
mats the send together and grows
long, so that it develops into gooC
hay. We are more than delighted
with It."
Judge Kinlsaid says, too, that the
is good deal of activity in the Sixtl
in the establishing Of star mail route
and new postoffices along the routes

had to put on two extra clerks eac'
for the section home rush, are stii

ARMATURE BURNED OUT
Small Machine at Electric Light Sta.
ton Cause Of Fire Alarm.


An alarm of fire was turned in from
the power house of the Norfolk Elec-
trio Light and Power company Sun
day morning, between and 8 o'clock,
two hose companies responding to
the call, but their services were not
required and they were ordered bach
to the engine house before they had
a chance to throw a stream of water.
The excitement was caused by the
burning out Of the armature of the
small auxiliary dynamo. The dyna-
mo had been left in connection with
the day circuit and when the big dy-
namo at the mill was started there
was trouble. The little dynamo
was built to stand ten amperes OF
electricity, but when the forty am
peres from the mill power were
connected the lightning sizzled around
the machine and took off everything
burnable that it could reach. A few
dippers of water stopped the burning
process, but not before the machine
had been badly damaged The ce
ment floor and other fire proof ar
rangements at the lighting station
prevented a spread of the trouble.
President Bullock of the company
estimates the damage at $500, the dy
namo as ii now stands having value
of not more than $40. 1t will require
new machine to repair the loss.

G. Lerum of Plainview, who used to

now in the fine stock business and
his just bought a fine Galloway bull,

Mr. and Mrs. w. f. Ross, who have
just returned from their visit at To-
peka, Kan, and whose home was en-
tered by burglars during their alb
sence, found that nothing Of great
value had been stolen by the robbers.
They are of the opinion that boys Of
the neighborhood broke into the mousse
as pins belonging to the engineers
society were taken, and these would
never be taken by professional burg
lars. 1t will be remembered that this
house was entered about two weeks
ago, and was discovered to have been
robbed when the neighbors saw the
doors standing open. Mr.. and Mrs.
Ross are not sure that the burglary
was not committed on circus day. as
the crowds might have brought
thieves with them, but they are more
strongly Of the opinion it was boys.

M0META AVENUE LINE
TO REACH ASCOT PARK
RAILWAY COMPANY MAKES AN
'Ess EXTENSION
Big Tract Opened Up at the Corner of
Main Street and SIauson Avenue.
Cars From Many Branches May Be
Operated Over New Road

The announcement is made by F. D..
Parker, an attorney with offices in the
Orpheum Theater building, that ar
rangements have been concluded with
the Huntington railway interests for
the immediate extension of the Moneta
avenue car line south on Moneta avenue
from Fifty-third street to SiXty-tirSt
street, and thence east on SiXty-first
street in a direct line to South Park
avenue, to a point directly opposite
the entrance to Ascot park.
The Los Angeles Railway company
already has franchise on Moneta ave-
nue. as far south as Slauson avenue,
which is the city limits, and for the
balance of the way a private right of
way has been secured through private
property. This was necessary because
Mr.. Huntington will not construct or
operate any car line under n twenty
one-year franchise.
The line Is already partially con-
structed as far south as Slauson ave-
nue., and the work will be pushed as
rapidly as possible. In all probability
the new line will be completed and in
regular operation within the next three
weeks, and this will then be the most
direct car line to Ascot park and will
enable the railway company to run
any of the Main-street, Spring-street
or Broadway cars direct to the park.
Mr.. Parker has had this plan under
way since the Interruption of service
on the San Pedro line. but the nego-
tiations were not concluded until yes
terday.
Announcement is also made of the
sale to a local syndicate through the
agency of Mr. Parker, of six pieces of
