Although the Office of coroner is not
a remunerative one, Ben Person has
the satisfaction of knowing that he is
the only candidate in the field for an
office that was originally instituted in
the year 1894. In early days, says a
writer in The Union, the coroner had
wider and more general jurisdiction
than he now enjoys. Coroners were
wont to ''hold their views" not only
upon deaths where an investigation
was considered necessary, but also up
on various serious crimes which were
treated as occasion for the raising of
revenue for the crown. The mission
of the coroner of the state was not
alone to investigate crimes and bring
felOns to justice. He superintended
the forfeiture of money and personal
property by criminals to the crown.
for the recording of which he was re-
sponsible.

From the Sand:
Word was received from Mrs. w.
S. Gray who is at Walled Lake.

Ranons, died last Tuesday morning.
Mrs. Gray left Thursday of last week
so that she arrived there in time to
see him before he died.
Merrick county has one supervisor
of whom it should be proud. A. J.
Parker came to Lone Tree without any
more clothes than Father Adam Wore
when he was born. 1t was in 1856.
Ad. is still there and making good.
A few days ago he sold five acres of
land for So. 500, off from which he
kicked the coyotes in the early days.
When Ad came here he started in
teaching school, putting in six months
of his time at that tiresOme job.
Then seeing that he could not get
rich at that, he bought pony and
Chaps and went to herding cattle.
Like the wise boy he was, he saved
his money and bought piece of land
near where Central City now is and
has lived respectable life ever
since. He sold five acres of it the
other day at $500. 90 an acre just
to show what Nebraska land is good
for. He has plenty of it left. Also.
he is supervisor of his district and is
making good on that. If You want
