Mrs. Rapp of Medora was painfully
injured last week when she fell on the

ten minutes past its usual time Of de-

John DeVorak, an Austrian 20 years

The electric light plant at Marmath

that amputation would be necessary,
but at last reports she is getting along
nicely.
Ralph Beedle of Rolla, son of Rev.
DR.. Beede, has written a story for
Harper's which brought him a check
for a hundred dollars. Since Ralph
has been able to break into that very
conservative magazine, it must be that
his literary talents are directed along
more conventional lines that those of
his rough-shod old daddy, who never
stops to look up the chronological or
geological names when he wants to
speak of louise, or skunk, or bear
or a jackass.

not an aged relative seeking some ben
eficiary for his estate. 1t was better

sailed twenty years ago for the Klon-
dixie, and who was believed to have
persisted, is in Fresno, Cal, and thru

his home in childhood, sought word of
the family from whom he had not
heard in twenty years. The Rapps
