AnsIeY Had Heavy Rain.

The most rain which fell in
this vicinity last Friday was re-
ported by Ansley who had rec
ord of five inches of rain in two
hours time.
Ansley was the storm center as
the down pour seemed to be
equally distributed on all sides
with perhaps little greater fall
northwest of the city and to-
wards Berwyn.
The streets of Ansley were
turned into small rivers wit the
water in them at a depth of
about six feet. Part of the busi-
ness houses of the town and
some of the cellars were flooded
with the rushing water. Ansley
was entertaining at the time
about 1900 Modern Woodmen of
America who were holding their
annual picnic.
The reports so far show the
damage to the caops as being
very heavy.
The railroad bridge near Ber
wyn which has caused so much
trouble before lost some of its
pilings and made it impossible
for trains to pass for some time.
Train No. 43 Sunday afternoon
being the first to cross since FRI
day night. The rest of the road
bed was able to be used by rum
ming slowly although it was in
bad shape in a few places.

The Primary Election.

The weather Tuesday after.
noon in this locality was very
onfavorable as a vote getter and
as a result light vote was poll
ed at the primary. A heavy rain
late in the afternoon 2A inches

from voting at all. In many
precircts of the county the vote
was light w 70 the time of going
to press but thlrteau voting pre-
cincts of the county have report
ed the vote cast and a complete
synopsis at this time can not be
given. However the vote report
ed indicates the general result in
the county.
The county precints which
have reported semi-oficially are
Algernon, Ansley, Arnold, Brok-
en- Bow North and South Side

The State Ticket.

The results in the senatorial
race are not in doubt in either of
the parties as Hitchcock and
Burkett both far ahead Of rhc
otner nominees
Shallenbarger and Dlhlman
are running a great race for the
governorship nomination. At
present the Omaha mayor has a
big lead but the returns which
constantly coming in show that
the voters are giving large maj
critics for the governor and is
making a tremendous gain Oh
his competitor. In the south,
western part Of the State Shall.
cnbarger is getting the greater
portion of the votes.
Douglas county gives maj.
ority of about 5000 for Mayor
Dahlman Aldrich has lead of
about 5000 not counting Douglas
county.
The Douglas county vote was
SOB for Aldrich and $500 for
Cady.

Senator Oils, who is superin-
tendent of the draft horse depart.
ment informs Secretary Mellor of
the board that the entries in his
class are greater than ever before
and that the exhibit of draft
horses bids fair to exceed in
quantity as we'll as quality all
previous exhibitions. In fact
the fair this year will far exceed
all former fairs in the way of
exhibits in all department. 1t
would seem each year that it
would be impossible to reach a
greater degree of excellence, but
the next year seems to increase
the exhibits and 1910 indications
look better at this time of any
former years. Fair dates this
year are Sept 5 to 9 and already
a great time is assured for those
who attend.

Miss Cutler EntertainS.

The MazGma club and their
escorts went to Merna on Satur-
day evening for a house party
given by Miss Dae Cutler.
A hay rack met them at the
station and the crowd of twenty
two were transported in this
manner the remainder of the
journey. Saturday evening they
went to a dance at New Helena.
The crowd returned Sunday
evening rather sleepy it is true
but very happy and extremely
we'll pleased with the entertain :
ment rendered them by their
charming hostess.
The only regrettable incident
of the affair was that Mrs ]. G..
Leonard who went with them as
chaperone had the misfortune to
sprain her ankle as she jumped
from the hay rack. She is able
to be about though by the use oi
pair Of crutches.

ANOTHER BIG WEDDING.
Levi EmpfieId Gets Married Again.

Prominent ranchman on lower
Spring Creek, near Mckinley,
faces the preacher second time
and takes unto himself a wife,
The above caption may be some
what mystifying to the many
readers of this paper who know
Mr.. and Mrs. Empfeld, and are
aware of the the fact that they
have been most happily welded
for the last eight years, have a
splendid ranch and are the par
ents of two bright fine little boys
All will be clear, however,
when it it is explained that the
high esteem in which Mr.. and
Mrs. Empfield are held by their
neighbors was made manifest
last Friday, Aug, 18th, it being
the eighth anniversary of their
wedding by big surprise party
being given them, and mock
Wedding, before Rev. G. P.
Netherly, being part of the pro-
gram.
On account of a fatal accident
in Galloway and the presence OF
a threshing machine in the
IL ighborhood not more than
half of the friends who intended
coming we're able to be present.
However sixty-f'e guests were
pt, sent, ladies bringing dinner,
OF course, for everybody. This
WIS placed on long improvised
table outside the house, and was
most hugely enjoyed.
A little present of most
beautiful and rich oak book case
and writing desk combined was
else made to Mr.. Empfeld and
vile by their visitors.

A Disturbance Nipped in the Bud.

Last Saturday night five of the
Reese ranch hands, c. B. Martin,
J. h. Martin, Ed Gracy, c.
Wright and Layman came driving
into the city behind a pair of
high stepping mules.
While driving around the
streets they became very loud
and boisterous in their speech
and when requested to stop such
talk by Marshal Draper they
hurled abusive epithets at him
and went on down the street past
the post Office towards the rail
road station. In the meantime
their language had been getting
more vulgar and louder every
moment and to cap the climax
as they were opposite the B. &M
restaurant they began shooting
with 80 winchester special.
This procedure was entirely
too much for our Irish marshal
to stand patiently and hear. AT
this time a gentleman was going
by in an automobile. Draper
called to him and turning his
machine they started after the
joyful ones.
The next thing those gentle
men knew was that the marshal
was navigating rapidly in their
direction IN a buzz wa gon and
the ensuing chase will probably
never be forgotten by the people
in it as it was certainly a thriller
in every respect. Not until the
gallopiug mules had put six long
muddy miles between them and
Broken Bow were they stopped
by the arm of the law and by
that time two of the men seeing
that their horse power did not
equal that of the on coming auto
left the rig to its fate and sought
safety in a nearby corn field.
The remaining three were
brought back and placed in the
city bastile and Sunday afternoon
the two who made their escape
were apprehended and brought to
town.
Later in the day however they
were all released on $500 bonds.
Their hearing is to be this after
noon in Police Judge Shinn's
Office.
Ed Gracey and c. Wright were
already under peace bonds OF $500
for playfully holding up a band
of Gypsies recently.

The dominion of man over the beasts
Of the field does not yet include the
rodents, say MrClure's Magazine.
Aurochs, cave-bear and mammoth we
put down with s~tone-headed arrows.
We have wiped out the buffalo: the
lion and the elephant will soon be
gone. But still the rabbits of Aus
tralia cost the colonies millions a
year; traps, ferrels and poison still
fail to make head against the rats,
mice and gophers of the United States.
While our animal enemies have be
come smaller in size, they have grown
more numerous. 1t is as If nature,
after trying vainly to chastise her in
surgent son with a catapult, had gone
after him with a shotgun.
The fact is that, of all warm-blood-
ed creatures, there are just two that
are really dominant, successful, in
~creasing in numbers n range, and
able to maintain themselves anywhere
in the world against all rivals. These
two are mar and the rats. The genus
homo and the genus mus go every
where and eat everything. They are
the two creatures that dwell in houses
and travel in ships. Each drives its
other rivals to the wall; but neither,
except locally and for brief periods,
has ever come near to DISCRIMINATING
the other. Civilized man has fought
the common rat for 200 years. and th
battle is still drawn.

SKINNED milk is a valuable pro-
tein feed if fed in not too large quanti-
ties. Experiments carried on by the
West Virginia Experiment Station
with several pens of birds and repeat
I'd two years in succession showed an
increase of approximately one egg for
every quart of milk fed, or, to be
more exact. a total gain of 7O2 eggs
from SOP quarts of milk fed during
the experiments. This gave a feed
ing value of ~ cents to 3 cents per
quart for the milk. In these expert
ments the milk was used to moisten
the mash feed and was given at the
rate Of approximately one quart per
day for each ten hens. Milk may also
be given sweet as a drink or fed when
completely curdleG. In feeding alone
the dishes in which it is fed must be
kept clean and should be frequently
scalded.
