4 I Senator Jewell was &C years old. He
was born in Mount Vernon, Knox coun-
,ty, Ohio, Jan. 1, 1848. His parents
moved in 1856 to Carroll county, ILL.,,

Albert Stevens Of Acme has purch'
ased of the Thos. McCook estate the
farm known as the Thos. McCook place,
consisting of about 3l2 acres, Con.
sideration $llO per acre. This will
make Mr.. Stevens land holdings am.
cunt to something over 800 acres,
practically all clear and most Of which
is very valuable land. highly improved.
Mr.. and Mrs. Stevens may be rated as
among the most prosperous farmers in
Howard county, and perhaps the most
successful when it is considered that
their Accommodations represent the earn
ings of their own hands and heads
rather than the grow h Of inherited
capital. This property has been. eac,
cumulated within the past twenty five
years solely by farming and raising
stock. But it is no lazy mans job.
We are certain that MI. Stevens could
have satisfied Bill Nye's curiosity when
the latter remarked, IF the sun rises
as beautiful as the sun sets it must be
. charming sight. - Elma New Era.

without saying that Mr.. Meyer is very
much pleased with the gift, not SO
much the value of the gift but the

discharging his duty without fear or

able man on the Board; and to say
that he will be missed fora long time.
