Injured in Runaway.

On Thursday afternoon when Mrs.
John Koenig and her father Mr..
VIM Wiedersten had gotten into the
buggy and were backing out to start
home the neck yoke came loose and
the pole dropped IT, the ground. This
caused the buggy to run against the
horses and of course there was i'm
mediate trouble. A hay rack in the
way caused the team to make a short
turn which turned the buggy over and
fortunately broke the doubletrees,
which prevented their dragging the
buggy and it's occupants through the
streets and possibly to their death.
Mrs. KeOnig was not injured but her
father was considerably bruised a.
bout the shoulders, though we under
stand no bones were broken. In con-
versatiOn with the lady she says the
ponies are quite gentle and that she
can drive them anywhere, but with the
tongue on the ground nothing could be
done.

GREAT NEWSPAPER PROPOSl.

The Daily NonpareiI of Council Bluffs,
Records.
Newspaper publishers east and west,
the merchants ofCouncil Bluffs and of
Omaha and general advertisers all
over the country, are discussing the
unparalleled growth and increasing
excellence of The Daily Nonpareil of
Council Bluffs Iowa. From a morn
ing newspaper of a somewhat limited
circulation few years ago, it has
taken place in the front rank Of the
leading newspapers of the west. Last
year The Morning Nonpareil had the
largest circulation of any newspaper
in the state of Iowa making a sworn
affidavit of circulation, with one eX-
ception. With the addition of the
evening paper started May /, 1906, it
has increased that circulation so per
cent In Council Bluffs the paper
goes to so per cent of the homes in
that city, and no other paper publish
ed goes to as many homes in western
Iowa as The Daily Nonpareil. Infor-
nation comes from Council Bluffs
that the paper has had an exception
ally prosperous year, that its adver-
Using patronage has had an extraor-
binary increase and that plans are un-
der consideration for enlargement of
the facilities and the scope of the pap
err. If you are not already taking
this newspaper, which is representa-
tive of all that is highest and best in
Iowa journalism, you should cores
pond with the office at once and get
full information regarding it.

A Very Tired Woman.

Here lies poor woman who always
was tired,
Who lived in house where help was
tsc ~ not hired,
Her last words on earth were: Dear
friends am going
Where washing is not done, nor
sweeping nor sewing,
But every thing there is exact to my
wishes.
For where they don't eat, there's no
washing of dishes.
I'll be where loud anthems will always
be ringing,
But having no voice, I'll get clear o.
the singing
Don't mourn for me now; don't mourn
for me never;
!, am going to do nothing for ever ant
ever"

A CRYSTAL WEDDING
Mr.. and Mrs. r. o. Craney Surprised
Their Friends.

Sixteen years ago Mr.. Ross O.
Craney and Miss Francis E. Norton
we're united in marriage at Walnut.
Iowa. This fact was remembered by
some of their friends who made it the
the occasion for a general surprise.
AS Mr.. Craney was away from home,
they postponed it until Monday even
ing but as it turned out that was
too soon as he did not get back
until Thursday evening. Friends from
Atlantic, Stuart and Walnut came up
on the train Monday afternoon and
taking q back street went direct to the
house so as to surprise Mrs. Craney
when she went from the store to sup
per. A number of others from Audu-
bon had also assembled and a boun-
teOuS supper was brought in by the
guests. Though year after the time
! they concluded to call it the crystal
wedding and make them number of
elegant presents of cut glass including
dishes, water set, glasses, candelabra
and other articles. Those present
from Stuart were Mrs. Craney's moth
er and family, her sister Mrs. Stat
ford and family and her sister Miss
Nellie Norton: from Walnut were his
mother Mrs. Craney and little grand.
daughter from Atlantic were Mrs.
Joseph Marshall, Miss Della Rey-
nolds, Mrs. Taylor and Mrs. Alec
Stuart: among those from Audubon
were the three Kerwin families, the
two Foley families, Mr.. and Mrs.
Mcclure, Martin Smith and wife, p.
Mccall and wife, Mrs. CASTOR and
family Mrs. BoOten, Miss Mcclure
Miss Cunningham, Mrs. Thos. Kenn-
edy and Mrs. Anderson. The even.
ing was spent very pleasantly, the
only lack being the presence of Mr.
Craney.

The King Road Drag.

Too much can hardly be said of the
road drag. An evide nee of its eifectiv-
ness may be seen on almost any of the
roads leading into Dexter. The resi-
dents along these roads have quite
gener ally been converted to the use of
the drag and with truly commendable
spirit have cared for the roads adj
Joining their farms. The roads so
recently almost impossible, which
have been dragged are in excellent
condition. just as the mud begins to
dry and while the clouds are yet PHI
able is the time to use the drag most
effectively. The direct result is a
smooth road but not the only benefit of
this work, for the experience of those
who have used the drag for a number
of years shows that the road becomes
of a firmer texture after being dragg-
ed for several seasons and not only
sheds water better, but offers firmer
road bed. Every encouragement
should be given an extended use of the
drag. Sentinel.

NO RAILROAD STRIKE.
Differences Between the Railways and
Their Employees are Settled.

What promised to be the most stu
pendous and disastrous strike that
even occurred in this country has been
happily adjusted by a compromise
between the contending parties. The
men demanded an increase of twelve
per cent for nine hour day. This
does not mean that they would work
but nine hours in day, but that they
would get extra pay for all time over
that. The areement finally reached
was ten per cent increase for ten
hour day. This will affect wages OF
all men running trains. handling bag

agreement is to be congratulated or
