ANDREWVILLE.

She storm of Sunday did considerable
damage in this section. Many windows
were blown out and others broken by the
hail and flying debris. Quite lot of hail
fell in this section, but at places a few
miles distant it was not so heavy. A
great many lives were endangered as a
result of the high winds and those caught
on the road had difficulty in reaching
safety.
George Torbert and family, who we're
riding in a Dayton had a narrow escape
from death. They were on their way
home and were nearing Pennington,
when the wind turned over the carriage
throwing all the occupants out, but Mr..
Torbert, and he was pinioned beneath
the carriage where he remained until
aid was secured to help remove the car
riage. The pole of the carriage struck a
pear tree, and thus the horses were pre-
vented from running away.
Joseph Baker and Edwin Bowen were
also among the unfortunates. They at
tended services at Epworth on ST. nday
afternoon. As Mr.. Bowen was endeav-
oring to reach place of safety, the horse
got frightened and became unmanagea-
BILE and ran into a wire fence and tore
out the shafts, and almost got away. Mr..
Bowen and Mr.. Baker were forced to

son? Because he was a Frenchman.
Boldly confronting the mob. he mount

effective that the crowd carried him on

GLENDALE

Jennie c. Dickers wife of w. 5
Dick erson, died at her home on Satur
day, April 10th, 1915, aged SO years,
months, and days. She was born il
Rochester, New York, and came t,
Ellendale to live in 1879. A HUSBAND
and three children survive her.
Alone and in sorrow we see that vacant
chair in our home. where sorrow agair
prevails, for we have buried a sweet anC
charming companion who God saw fl
to give us in our youth, and with heI
has gone the comfort of our life. We
were fortunate enough to find this
Prairie Flower while young cowboy
returning from railroad building on the
Kansas prairie in 1876. In early March
of 1879 we brought her to her Ellendale
home, happy bride. and amid poverty
and privation but proud and honest, we
started together, heart and hand, for
lifes fortune. For thirty-six years we
have struggled and laughed at poverty
and reverses. We have reared to
maturity three children, Mrs. Mary
Price, of Skillman, New Jersey, and
Miss Gertrude and Willard Salisbury
Dickerson, Jr. Mrs. Dickerson died
after more than year of suffering from
dropsy and on Saturday last passed to
her reward in heaven in the same sweet
christian spirit that has characterized
her whole life. Many of the older cit
liens remember her a most charming
bride of long age, and all Ellendale has
never ceased to praise and love her.
The funeral services were held at the
home on Monday, where large number
of relatives and friends gathered to pay
tribute to her memory, and listened to
the words of praise of Brothers Behringe-
and Kelley Many followed the remains
TO their last resting place in Odd Eel
lows Cemetery in Milford. The funeral
services were conducted by VIM. G.

able management is proof that he is

citation.

MEDICINE HAT.
The Indian Chief From Whom the Ca.
madam City Was Named.

| The Indian Chief From Whom the Ca
madam City Was Named.
Not many persons know what was
the origin OF the strange name borne
by the Canadian city that Mr.. Rud-
yard Kipling once called the city
born lucky"
The word medicine" means more to
an Indian than to Us. We think of it as
meaning something nasty that is good
for us. but the Indian distinguishes as
good medicine" and bad medicine"
anything that he fancies will change
his fortunes for better or for worse
Imagine that 10 is hunting antelope
and meeting with no success. Pres
emily he finds an empty cartridge shell
or the top of tomato tin. and shortly
afterward he gels a shot at his game.
Can be doubt that the piece of tin or
the shell gave the luck? Not he He
wears that fragment of tomato tin or
empty shell about his neck with his
other jewelry, and it is good medi-
cine"
Several years ago there was a Black
foot chief who lived in the vicinity OF
Seven Persons River, where now
stands the city Of Medicine Hat. He
and his tribe were fond of hunting and
Of making war ON their enemies. the
Crees. This chief always wore head
dress of feathers that he called his
medicine hat" for he thought that 1t
brought him good fortune.
1t was dark day for the chief when
he last met the Crees at the place
where now stands the growing city.
He and his men fell upon the enemy
with great bravery and even put them
to ignominious fight But just then
a gust of wind whirled out of the west,
caught the magic hat and tossed It
into the swift running Saskatchewan
river Instantly the poor chief lost all |
in himself and his cause. |
and with victory in his hand he for
bore to grasp it, but ded over the
plains toward the Rockies, followed by
his tribe.-YOuth's Companion.

Science proves that the germs only
thrive when the system is weakened from
colds or sickness, overwork, confning
duties or when general weakness exists.
The best physicians point out that
during changing seasons the blood should
be made rich and pure and active by TAX
ing Scott Emulsion after meals. The cod
liver oil in Scotts Emulsion warns the
body by enriching the blood; it peculiarly
strengthens the lungs and throat, while it
upbuilds the resistive forces of the body
to avoid colds and prevent consumption.
If you work indoors, tire easily, feel

PRELUDE.

For the articles which appear be-
low. the Tribune is indebted to the
teachers OF the La Junta High
School. These articles were contrib
uted by them upon request in the
endeavor to convey some idea OF the
La Junta High School to the citi-
zens of La Junta The progress OF
a good school is determined by those
who run it and it is due FOR the most
part to the work of the La Junta
teachers in the past four years that
We have reached this standard OF et-
ficiency. Some OF our teachers have
been with US for four or five years.
and it is through their continuous
efforts that we may attribute this
Improvement. To advance consist
emily school must have the same
teachers year after year, confusion
comes from constant changes To
keep efficient teachers We must APP
preciate them and show that appre-
citation in more ways than one. Let's
show that appreciation
