Austrian lcicIe Factory.
From the Pathfinder.

From the Pathfinder.
 In Austria flee sticks are manufac- tured at a profit.
 A series of poles is arranged so that the water will fall slowly over each one in the series. Of course, the water in the winter time freezes, forming large icicles. When the icicles have attained the prop CT size the employees of the ''ice plant come around with carts, break off the great sticks of ice, and haul them away to place where they are put in storage.
 Of course, 1t is much easier to handle a large quantity of ice in this way than 1t is to cut it from some stream and then pack it away. There may, however, be a difference in quality between stick ice and lake or river ice.

Thomas Vodden, bachelor of
20 years of age and living alone
on his place about eight miles
west, was found dead in his
corntield last Saturday morning,
holding a halter in his hands.
Neighbors had not seen any stir
about the place for several days
and went to see if he was sick,
and finding no one about the
place caused a search to be made
with the result as stated. 1t is
supposed that he had been lying
there about four days. Coroner
Swan was summoned and an IN
quest was held. Heart failure
is supposed to have been the di-
rect cause. On his person was
found two certificates OF deposit
on the Citizens, one for Il, 900
with accrued interest of $50, and
another for 1860 with accrued in
terest of $50. 20, besides S1l4. 20
in currency. He had clear title
to valuable quarter section of
land, 500 bushels of corn in crib,
IA new LOT of farming implements,
and several head of stock. The
only relative in this country is a
sister, Mrs. A. B. Wilcox, living
in Grant, Perkins county, Ne
braska, where his remains were
taken on Monday. Deceased
was a Canadian by birth, of En-
ghsh parents. J. A. Dawson
was selected as administrator of
the estate.

work the publisher of this paper
went about doing upon taking
charge was to solicit real estate
advertising. He got the cold
shoulder and was advised that
lit did not pay" But when the
description of Julesburg and
Sedgwick county appeared and
contained the name OF the princi-
pal real estate firm here there
was considerable objection from
every firm doing business, until
the firm, which was entitled to
the courtesy by reason of the
authorship being by one Of the
members. requested that the
credit be dropped from the arti-
Gle. But one firm has advertised
in these columns since taking
charge, and this week the sec.
ond advertiSement-that of the
Colorado Investment Co.-puts
up its sign.
The writer feels that every
real estate firm should advertise
in these columns. When he con
| templated the taking over of The
Grit-AdvOcate last summer he
thought that the absence of ad
vertising made Julesburg pret-
ty dull looking town, and espec-
tally the absence Of real estate
advertising. The advertising in
a newspaper is an index to the
town and whenarticles of unusual
interest appear they should not
only be taken advantage of by
real estate men but by citizens
generally or the effort is vast
ed.
One of the best letters we have
received comes from E. l.. Stick
ney, of Chicago, who addressed
his letter to The Editor of the
Leading Newspaper" and is in
point as follows will you
kindly send me a copy of one Of
the latest issues Of your paper,
and if you have any papers
giving a review of the various in
stitutions of your town, l should
be pleased to receive copy al
so. am considering a propo-
sition to locate in your neighbor-
hood and should like to receive a
sample of your paper for the
purpose Of Judging the character
of your merchants and business
men. as | consider a local news
paper a good criterion to Judge

AS to the advertising value of

comes from DR.. j. B. Dunham

Mr.. Smelser, of Rockville, Ne,

sibly become citizen of Jules
burg, the outgrowth of an adver,
tisement in this paper, thus
proving that advertising does
pay" and the weekly locals of a
