Mr.. MAIDS Gregerson, of Elk Horn,
was seventy years of age last Sunday,
June "a, 1906, and a number of bis
friends decided that he should have a
gentle reminder of the high esteem in
which the good man is held in this
community; so they all "chippedin,' .
purchased an elegant easy chair and
soft downy coach which they pre-
sented to him and then turned in and
had the jolliest kind of birthday
party which was only broken up
when twilight warned them it was
time to go, and as each guest came to
bid him goodnight and wish him

notice little drops OF weep crawling
out the corners of his eyes and 20

keep 'em back, but it was no use
wnen he remembered what a big
army of true friends he had here
abouts.

Perhaps the most elaborate we'd
ding that has taken place in the
western part Of the county for good
many moons was the one which
occurred at the Danish Lutheran
church, in Kimballton, today Thurs
day June IS, 1906, at which time
Miss Nettie johnson, daughter of Mr..
and Mrs. Hans ohnsen; was joined in
marriage to Mr.. Thomas Thompson,
Rev. Johansen, pastor of Bethenia
church, performing the ceremony at
the hour of three o'clock in the after
noon in the presence of the relatives
and as many invited guests as could
get inside the beautiful country
church. Immediately following the
ceremony the three hundred in.
vited gueets repaired to the home of
the BRIDES parents, adjoining Kim
ballton on the north, where the re-
ception was held and where the we'd
ding feast had been spread, but
words are idle things when one tries
to tell of the goodies the housewife
had prepared for the occasion. A
pavilion dancing platform had been
erected on the spacious lawn at the
johnson home, the Kjar Brothers
orchestra, at Elk Horn, has been
engaged to furnish music and when
the evening shadows begin to gather
DER the lea the young people will
trip the light fantastic to their hearts
content. The bride is q most love-
able girl who has grown to woman
hoods estate upon her fathers farm
here, is possessed of all tho attributes
which go to make up Gods best gift
to man, loving wife; and her friends
afe 0s COUNTLESS dS tue saDQS Dy the
sea. The groom is the model of per-
lection in habits and industry, and is
the envy of many gallant swain
who was forced to stand idly by and
see him carry off such a capital prize
in:the matrimonial lottery. The hap
ply welded people were the recipients
of numerous costly and pretty gifts,
and figuratively speaking the newly
married pair may be said to begin
the new life with golden spoon in
their mouths, and with the best wish
es OF everybody.
George Feeburg, of Kimballtos,
sold that fine driving team he owned
to Walter Rasmussen, of Elk Horn,
one day this week.

more about this country. After you reach
before you get out of the sand hills; but
when you do you notice great change in
the soil, it being covered with fine grass,

you find plenty of water, as along the

Is ranching. You find thousands of head
OF cattle and horses out here. Some In

where we exchange mail. The postmaster

dwelling, and this is on stretch of 20
miles. Allen, Kyle, Henderson and Por-
cupine are small towns in which you find
sub agent or farmer, an Indian trader a
school teacher, and their respective fam
lilies. These people are all white. Besides
every town has got blacksmith, but
only Kyle and the agency have a doctor.
Our blacksmith is an old Danish fellow
from Roskilde, Sjalland.
The government does not permit any
outsider to enter the reservation, for

horses or cattle, except on application adj

CONFINED ABSENCE FROM RUS.
STA GIVES RISE TO coNJEc-
TURES.
SCORE ARE BEATEN TO DEATH
cOSSACKS THEN FORCE lNNO
CENT PEASANTS TO LASH
EACH OTHER.

New York, Oct. 3.-The czars alb
sence from Russia, a special cable dis
patch printed here says, has given rise
to discussions in Paris over report
there that his majesty might cease to
direct the affairs of his realm.
The Petit Parisien, in this connec-
tion, prints st. Petersburg dispatch
saying that court circles are seriously
discussing an eventual regency. The
reason given for such an eventuality
is that recent invidents have so affect
ed the czar's health that his condition
has inspired lively anxiety among his
encourage.
The Echo de Paris publishes, from
what it says is a good source, a per-
sistent report, circulating in Copen-
hagen, that the czar and czarina have
been in that city for two days.
Horrible Atrocities.
Kherson. Oct 2.-Ninety-seven peas
ants were tried yesterday on a charge
of having devastated the estate of M.
Krivoshein, formerly minister of rail
roads. Sixty-three were sentenced to
Imprisonment, while thirty-four were
acquitted.
The trial brought out details of a
number of horrible atrocities commit
ted by the authorities upon the ac-
cused. The chief of the district, ac-
companied by detachment of Cos
sacks, reached the eslate sc on after
the devastation. All the peasants on
the ground were at once gathered in.
No investigation was made.
The chief invited priests to admin
lister the last sacrament to the prison
ers and then ordered the Cossacks to
beat them all to death.
Beat Twenty-three to Death.
The butchery lasted for four hours.
Twenty-three peasants were killed and
1876 were mutilated. The Cossacks
then thoroughly tired out, compelled
the peasants to continue flogging each
other, and the men had to beat their
own brothers, sons and fathers.
The victims of this Slaughter were
innocent, those really guilty having es-
capped by fight.
In spite of these revelations the
court found sentences as related.
Find Threads Of Plot.
st. Petersburg, Oct 2.-Further de-
tails of the recent arrests of terrorists
in the palace of Peterhof were publish
ed yesterday by the Svet, from which
it appears that terrorists had been liv-
ing for time in the quarters of lack
ey named Klepnikoff, who was arrest
ed recently, charged with being con-
cerned in smuggling terrorists through
the guards and arranging their hiding
places, paying literally for information
about the movements of the members
of the imperial family.
The police found in the room of an
arrested youth, who was high school
student barely eighteen years old, cor
respondence with the revolutionists'
organization, from which it is hoped
to get hold of all the threads of the
plot.

TALK OF AN EXTRA SESSION.
Congress May Be Called as Result OF
Turn in Cuban Affairs.


Washington, Oct. 3.-In connection
with the return of President Roosevelt
discussion is precipitated regarding
the possibility of an extra session OF
congress as result of the develop
ment of affairs in Cuba. Intimations
are given that this subject will be con-
sidered among others at the meeting
of the cabinet to-day.
Just what basis there is for the sug-
gestion OF a possible meeting of con-
gress In special session is not known.
1t may be the result of intimations
received of criticism in congressional
circles over the action of President
Roosevelt and Secretary Taft in precip-
itating Intervention in Cuba without
consulting congress.
There are suggestions here from
high congressional sources that the
idea which pervaded the senate at the
time of the adoption of the Platt
amendment was that if Intervention in
Cuba should at any time become nee
essary the president would consult
with congress because of the fact that
Intervention under some circum-
stances would be tantamount to dec
laration OF war
The president is understood to feel
confident that the country will sustain
him in the steps that have been taken
up to this time.
