Mr.. Peter Schwab. of Greeley,
sold a bunch of fat steers to Mr.. J.

men at Extra, this week which were
like a hard boiled egg; hard to beat.
There were twenty head of them
they averaged fifteen hundred
pounds each and MIR. Schwab re-
ceived the fancy price of five dollars
and fifty cents per hundred; but
they are worth it and were perhaps
the best lot of cattle, of that kind
ever delivered in Extra.

Here's brand new one on Maude.
He, haw! "Maude Mailer on a sum-
mer day with her fellow ran away,
in benzine touring car, scooting
to preacher far. Maude's father
saw the fleeing pair, smelled the
benzine scented air; caught mule
whose name was Jane, and galloped
down the dusty lane; the mobile
very swiftly ran, but burned the oil
all out the can. The motor stopped
upon the hill, but Jane ran on just
tit to kill. Alas for maid, also for
man, also for empty benzine can.
Maude's father on the old gray
mule came and took her off to

a broken heart. The moral of this
tale so sad: Don't steal the girl; go

"A Soldier Mustered Out"

Abraham Cole Howard was born
in the state of New Jersey on the
seventh day of April, 1857, and
died at Extra, Audubon county,
Iowa, on the third day of October,
1906. For a long time Mr.. Howard
was resident OF Casey, Iowa, hav-
ing moved there from Illinois in
1865, for the past twenty years, how
ever, he had lived at Port Huron,
Nlchlgan, and from which place he
came to Extra, two weeks ago last
Tuesday, expecting to pass the re-
nainder of his days with his son,
Mayor ]. o. Howard, of this city.
In feeble health when he arrived,
suffering of fever, he rapidly grew
worse and on Wednesday,, the third
day of October, about FIVE O'Clock
he gathered up his feet in death.
Mr.. Howard was the father of three
children, two girls and one boy; all
of whom have preceded him to the
better land, save the son at whose
house he died; twenty-nine years
ago his wife passed away, leaving
him to walk the pathway of life
alone. The subject of this sketch,
for several years, was faithful
member of the Universalist church;
for four years, during the entire
civil war; he was a soldier in the
service of his country, and belong
ed to the Thirteenth Illinois Infant.
ry. From the effects of hardships
and exposures then endured he
never recovered, having been prac-
tically an invalid since his dis
charge, it being beautiful tribute
to his memory that the comrades
of Oliver P. Morton Post, Number
Thirty-Five, 6. A. R., of this place,
attended his funeral, carrying the
flag under which he had fought SO
long, and subsequently escorted
the body to the depot from whence
it was conveyed on the cars over to
Casey and there laid to rest by the
side of the wife of his youth. His
sudden demise has shocked the
entire community and their sympa-
thy is with his only son, thus left
fatherless, and with all the friends
who knew him and recognized his
worth. Brief funeral services were
held at the home of Mayor Howard
at ten o'clock, last Friday morning,
conducted by Elder II. A. Pallister,
pastor of the Christian church, his
remarks being based upon the
scriptures as found in the Twenty.
Third Psalm.
"The dead are like the stars by day,
Withdrawn from mortal eye,
Yet holding, unperceived. their way
Through the unclouded sky.
By them, through holy hope and love,
We feel, in hours serene,
Connected with world above,

A GOOD PROSPECT IN

A letter from II. l.. Andrew, superin-
tendent Of the Chiquita companys prop
critics in the Good Springs region, south
ern Nevada. indicates that he is just
now giving particular attention TO the
development of the Hoosier group Of
lead claims. He is opening a new tun-
mel inu the vein fifty feet above the old
Hardy tunnel which is In ore all the
way, with everything to indicate that all
is ore between thetwo tunnel levels. Ore
is being sacked for shipment right along,
ard by this time. according to the let
ter, Superintendent Andrew has probably
pu chased ten burros on which the ore
is to be carried out of the box canyon
In which the mine is located to the
wagon road leading out to the railroad
station. Ii was found impossible TO con-
company will add another team to its
camp equipment and do its own haul
ing, just as 1t will do it's own burgo
packing. 1t is expected to have every
thing moving so that the first car of ore
can be landed at the railroad during the
coming month.
Work for the time has been suspended
on the Chiquita gold property. This is
due tothe fact that one strike or another
that had been relocated at the camp
caused every man, including the cook,
to pack his traps and leave. 1t is prob
able therefore that no attempt will be
made to resume here until after the first
o. the year.
