A Correction

In the supplement Of this issue
we say w. j. Taylor made appli-
cation to Judge Hostetler for a
recount of the democrat vote be-
tween himself and j r. Dean of
the district. We should have
said county instead Of district.
The canvas was completed yester-
day noon under the order of the
court and Taylor gained one vote
as the result, which leaves j. r.
Dean majority of four in the
district on the democrat ticket.

Big Increase In Custer County

Washington, Aug, 31.-Official
figures made public today give
Custer county Nebraska, a popul-
lation Of 25,66S, as against 1888
ten years ago, an increase of5,91O.
Thecencus of 1890 showed that
Custer county at that time had
21,677 inhabitants. During the
decade between 1890 and 1900
the population fell off 1919. The
increase from 1900 to 1910
the cencus officials attribute to
the successful operation of dry
farming methods.

Probably no invention of late
years has been so much interest
to the public as that of the air
ship. There is something about
the act of Hyirg through the air
which appeals to everybody.
There is a certain facination
about il which attracts every
body and causes them to pay
particular attention whenever
flight is about to be made.
When the State Fair management
concluded to make an attempt to
secure someone to make flights
for the state fair, they touched
the popular chord and in going
after the best they kept up their
reputation of giving the people
just as good and in some
instances better than other fairs
have been able to secure. In
securing the famous Wright
brothers they made a grand move
and 1nsures visitors to the fair
the opportunity of seeing the
best. AS Wright brothers have
have electrified the old world
with their aeroplane flights so
also will the people of Nebraska
have a like opportunity to see
the same article of flying as has
brought to these famous brothers
the title of the "Krugs of the
Air" They will fly each day

A Matter of Conscience
By NJ Quad. Copyright

before he could start out Deacon No
Bile, who was laboring under nervous
excitement. arose and said that he
had burden on his conscience that
he was determined to get rid Of
Something might have come of the
two confessions then and there but for
break up the meeting. They let a lot
Of bees loose on the people and created
a diversion lasting an hour and when
1t was over 1t was found that both
deacons had been stung so many times
that any matters Of conscience had
been adjourned to more propitious
occasion. That occasion came just
year later. There was a food In the
river. and both deacons turned out to
help the sawmil man save his prop
erty. They were engaged In this
neighborly task when both found
themselves seated on the same log and
being whired downstream. It was
then that Deacon Hart said:
abraham, we are In danger"
We are. Uriah."
I'VE may never see home again"
"I'm afraid we won't"
"Then I'll make that confession to
you. and you make yours to me-"
Yes; the time has surely come"

thought you cheated me-"

you had beat me In that horse trade,
and one night sneaked over into your
pasture and knocked the horns of

symptoms OF blood poisoning set IN.
He feared that his days were num-
bered. and he sent for Deacon Noble
and said:
abraham, l may die Of this, and l
want to leave my house in order. My
conscience is pricking me about GER
tain thing in connection with you, and
want to get 1t Off my mind"
THAT'S right, Uriah," urged the 9th
er. mo one ought to go. to the grave
with anything on his mind. Pm ready
to hear your confession"
But no confession was made. The
doctor came In just then to examine
and dress the wound. and he said he
was glad to inform Deacon Hope that
the bad symptoms had disappeared
and that the leg would now do nicely.
These words had wonderful effect
on conscience, and the deacon shut his
lips and waited for some other time.
That time didn't come for year or
more. Then Deacon Mobiles wife was
taken III with typhoid fever. When
the crisis approached and the doctor
said the chances were all against her
the husband broke down. He was out
under an apple tree, and when Deacon
Hart came along and began to express
his sympathy Deacon Noble decided to
relieve his conscience.
But he didn't relieve it. The doctor
came to the door and beckoned to him
and whispered that he believed the crisis
was passed. 1t was such good news that
Deacon Noble wouldn't have confessed
anything for hundred dollars. His
wife convalesced, and time ran along
until the biannual camp meeting
opened. Both deacons were particu-
larly strong on camp meetings. They
were there and enthusiastic. On the
third day Of the camping the spirits Of
all were aroused by the words Of a
visiting minister, and at length Deacon
Hart got up and said that he could
stand It no longer. He was admon-
