Remote orauin Of Alcohol.

No one knowsaewhen alcohol was
first made. Il is commonly taught
that it was firstAdtgtilled by the Ara
bians about theztenth century, but
there is little douEbthat they obtained
the secret fromSataiian doctors. who
had long been spracticing it. Paul
Richter, in a recent number of the
Berliner Kltnfa.he Wochenschrift,
shows that a knowledge of aqua
ardens." or burning water" may be
traced as far backRas the second cen

Few counties in the state can show

far up towards the top this year. MIR.
LippencOtt's wheat threshed out a
little better than thirty four bushels
per acre, Mr.. Platts yielded nearly
thirtyone and others have twenty six
10 twenty eight bushels. When we
take into consideration that the aver.
age yield in the state Is under twenty
bushels we will see the splendid posi-
tion Of our own county.
Notwithstanding The fact that we
have had long dry speff Of extremely
hot weather corn has withstood the
unusual conditions in a remarkable
manner and II y good rain comes this
week the corn crop will be excellent.
The crop conditions speak high praise
for the scientific manner with which

Sunday. The gentlemen who are

Nebraska and Omaha.

The meeting held Tuesday after.
noon in the Chamber of Commerce
rooms showed conclusively that the
stock holders Of the chautauqua asso.
citation were in favor Of pushing this
years meeting with energy and max.
ing it the best ever held in the city
The officers called the meeting because
they wished the stock holders to know
the true conditions. 1t seems that
the committee has purchased the most
expensive talent ever provided for u
chautauqua here and they desired to
know whether or not their actions
would meet with the approval Of the
association. After some discussion u
vote was taken and the association ex.
pressed its approval Of she sctiob iof
the committee.
This we think is wise move. We
cannot have talent that is too good
for this community and the better the
program the larger the crowds which
will insure financial success. We
have taken hold Of this form Of enter.
tainment aud instruction and the Chief
believes that We should keep it up and
make it better and better as the years
go by. The program selected this year
Is very strong aud of 4 character that
will not only give us intellectual ad.
vancement but 1t will also give us ma.
terial financial aid. The Corn man
Bowen will be worth thousands Of
dollars to this community alone. We
believe in keeping the good work 60
ing and We believe in giving the very
best that can be secured. We aie
very much pleased at the disposition
of the stock holders to continue even
in the face Of possible deficit but
with such attractions as we will offer
this year there ought not to be any de-
felt.

files Of the Chief Of September l6, 1912

Among other things the following
were suggested:
