A story Is going the rounds of late
about DIR. Peter Dockler, of Onaga,
He came to Kansas fifty or more years
ago and settled in Neuchatel in the
southwestern part of Nemaha county.
He is said to be an old-fashioned kind
of doctor who gathers and brews
herbs for his patients, and some old
fashioned people, who believe in the
herb treatment rather than in patent
medicines, refuse to have any other
physician. He lives alone in a cot
tage of three rooms in Onaga and
does all his own cooking and work, as
he has done for many years. He was
born in Athens, Greece, October 5,
1905.

The little snow-bird which heralds
the approach of or accompanies the
blizzard is one of the best friends
that the farmer has among the birds
that spends a part of it's time here.
An eastern scientist has discovered
that this bird has about the greatest
capacity for consuming weed seed of
any bird in existance and is of great
assistance in helping to keep the
weed growth down to the minimum.

at Plainville, and find that it works
successfully. A tank hung higher
than the stove feeds the oil to coal
fire in a gentle drip, taking a whole
day to consume gallon. A strong,
hot fire is kept up, but the coal is
consumed very slowly, the supply on

of oil will last twelve hours or more,
and when bought by the barrel and

two and half cents per gallon. The

WESTON IS TO
SUCCEED WOOD

WASHINGTON, D. c., Feb. IL
General John F. Weston, who is slat-
ed to succeed Major General Leonard
Wood when the latter is recalled from
the Philippines, is one of the most
popular officers of the army. Gen
eral Weston is at present in COM
mand OF the department of Luzon.
General Weston is a native of Ken
lucky and served through the civil
war with the 4th Kentucky volunteer
cavalry. At the beginning of the
Spanish war he was appointed briga-
dier-general of volunteers. and in 1899
succeeded General Egan as head of
the commissary department of the
army.
Few officers of high rank in the
army have been so popular as General
Weston, who has been called the
Rory O'Moore" of the army. This
nickname was given him because of
his unfailing good nature and kindli-
ness, mixed with an Irish humor.
AT the same time he has always had
a high reputation for executive
ability.

FOR LEWISTON

The track team of the Spokane High
school has decided to pass up the Of.
fer of the University of Washington,
for a place in her interscholastic
meet this spring because Of its com.
ing so close to the meet at the Wash.
ington State college at Pullman.
The Spokane team regards the con.
test with the local High school too in.
teresting to pass by, and because Of
the fact that Lewiston High captured
practically all of the honors at tho
meet last year, Spokane wants venge-
ance.
The Spokane Chronicle says:
The local boys do rot intend to
stay out of the Inland Empire cham.
pionships to go away from home to
compete. The Pullman meet has al.
ways been the big event in the High
school track season and this year the
team is more than anxious to win
from Lewiston, her old time rival"

JUSTICE FULLER
NOT TO RETIRE
Great Jurist Enters Upon
His Seventy=Fifth
Year Today
Special to Evening Teller.

WASHINGTON, d. c., Fec. IL
Chief Justice Fuller of the United
states supreme court entered upon
his seventy fifth year today. AL
though he has been eligable for re-
tirement for four years, so far as his
friends know he has at M time since
he reached the age of 20 Thought
seriously of taking advantage of the
privilege.
He apparently is in good health,
and enjoys Washington life.
For man of his age he is well pre-
served, and the general opinion here
is that unless his health should sud.
denly fail he will certainly remain on
the federal bench until after the next
presidential election.
Wants Democrats Successor.
Chief Justice Fuller is a democrat,
and though he is compelled by pre-
cedent and good taste to keep out of
and would leave no stone unturned TO
see his successor a man of the same
political faith as himself
If Theodore Roosevelt is succeeded
as president by democrat, barring
IL r+alh, Chief Justice Fuller will
likely not retire from the federal
bench before March 1, 1909 at which
time he will be rs years old.
BY pursuing such course the chief
justice would have the pleasure of
seeing his successor democrat.
At the present time there is but one
member OF the supreme bench elegi-
Bile for retirement besides Justice
Fuller. This is Associate Justice
Harlan.
He is only three mouths the junior
of the chief justice, but ne is giant
physically. and seemingly in the best
OF health.
Justice Brewers Time Short.
He is a republican and pretty
strict party man, and should the dem
ocrats win next year ne would prob
ably give President Roosevelt the
privilege OF appointing his successor.
Associate Justice Brewer will be
eligible for retirement next June,
when he will have reached the al
lotted three score 49,
ne will avail himself of the oppor-
tunity to retire Is not known. He
appears to be a man Of excellent
health. He is a republican, and he
would probably give Theodore Roose-
welt the opportunity to appoint his
successor should the next president
be a democrat.
Justice Peckham is siekly.
Associate Justice Peckham has been
in poor health for some time, and
1t is not at all unlikely that his will
be the next retirement from the SUI
preme bench. He would be eligible
to retirement with pay after Novem-
Der s. 1908, but he may retire before
that time. He took his seat in 1905.
Thh other members of the court
have more than five years before any
of them would be eligible to retire.
