CROSSES MISSOURI PACIFIC
THE LITTLE DREDCE BOAT NOW
EAST OF RAILROAD.
Much Interest Manifested BY Citi-
zens In the Work-A Large
Crowd Of OnIookers.

Saturday night the ditching ma
chine in the lateral ditch just south
of town reached the Missouri Paci-
fic trestle work at the place of cross
ing, and Sunday last, at 200, after
No. 103 had passed over, was the
time selected for the ditching ma
chine to pass through the trestle.
All arrangements had been made.
The telegraph wires had been raised
in readiness, and the pile driver and
a force of men awaited the moment
Of commencing operations. When
all was in readiness there vas some
quick work done by experienced and
efficient men. The timbers were
removed, the piling drawn from their
resting place and the little ditching
machine signaled to go ahead, which
she did in a manner that startled
the natives. The engine coughed
and strained, and the big scoop
bucket worked with a precision and
speed that was good to look upon.
To pass through and clear the trestle
called for an excavation of 8 feet in
depth, 20 feet in width, for stretch
of 80 feet The ditching machine
commenced operations at 800, COM
pleting it's task at midnight, when the
piling were hurridly replaced and all
work done necessary for the passing
of trains.
The ditching machine now has
an unobstructed line to follow to
Persons Point, where it's labors will
cease for this lateral. 1t will then
be dismantled and removed to new
scat of operation.

BEAT A WOMAN
And Judge Spragins Said, Twenty
Five Dollars"

Athur Nixon of Barada, who has
figured quite largely as the defendant
in boot-legging prosecutions for sew
eral years past, suffered a brain
storm last Sunday and got up cour-
age enough to whip his wife. The
unusual battle took place en- the road,
about a mile from Barada, while the
parties were in an automobile which
Mr.. Nixon sports. The man, or
brute, just as you please, blacked
the ladys eye, cut her lips, and bruis-
ed her cheeks until they were badly
swollen and discolored.
Judge Spragins said, twenty-five
dollars" when this estimable citizen
plead guilty, and promised a winter
in Jail if the offense was repeated.
We think it was a French lady who
said, "The more | see of men, the
better l like dogs and she didn't
know Nixon, either.

en- words thanked those assembled for
the compliment paid him.
There We're numerous musical num-

Citations with the Presbyterian church

were enjoyed, until late hour when
refreshments were served. The ev-
ening was one of the most pleasant
social events of the week.
