Herald Adopts New Type
Face With This Issue

This issue of The Herald comes to
readers "all dressed up" in a new
type face.
The type, named "Textype" de-
signed and manufacture by the Mer-
genthaler Linotype company, is strict
ly modern.
Optometrists, oculists and educators
aided in designing the type which, it
is said, gives less eye strain and ia
tigue from reading.
The type is by far more readable
than what The Herald has used for
several years.
The Herald is pleased to present its
new dress" to its subscribers-one
more step in the effort to give Sheri-
dan county a good community news
paper.

GUN SHOT WOUND

An accidental discharge OF a shot
gun snuffed out the life of Carl Freid-
rich, l6-year-old son of Mrs C. E.
Friedrich who lives 10 miles east of
Plentywood Saturday.
The lad, a student at the Antelope
high school, left the Friedrich farm
home shortly before noon in company
with his younger brother Robert and
Wyman Anholdt in search of rabbits.
Carl was sitting in the rear of the
sled. He had put one shell in the gun
and rested the firearm against the
side of the sled. The gun slipped. The
youth grabbed for the gun and the
fatal charge struck him in the chest.
The boy was rushed to Plentywood
but life was extinct when brought
here.
The tragedy cast a pail of gloom
over communities where the boy and
Friedrich family are well known.
Funeral Tuesday
Funeral services were held from
the Trinity Lutheran church Ia miles
east of Dooley Tuesday The body
was inferred in Freidrichdorf ceme-
terry neal there.

and received his early education in
that community. He attended the
Plentywood high school for two years
and while going to school here made
his home with Mr.. and Mrs. Walt
Raess.
His mother, who has remained re-
markably brave in face of the sudden
tragedy, survives besides three broth
ers and one sister.

years ago.

In order to prevent the handsome

THE police arrangements for the
occasion were admirable and reflect
great credit upon Supt Richards, who
was present in person. The detail
consisted of 80 men, under Sergt.

been well posted throughout the build

direction to move and prevent crowd

gained admittance.

1t is almost impossible to visualize
our Washington the beautiful with
the nud-hole Washington Of long
ago, and which probably had reached
it's worst stage toward the end Of
President Lincoln's first adminiStTa-
ton.
THE Washington press did not print
nearly so much social news in
those days as it does at present, since
this class of reading was probably
crowded out by political anu war news,
mainly the latter. But the writer did
come across a good item in the edi-
torial column of The Star, which
gives splendid account of Lincoln's
last New Year day reception, and
which follows:
I'm accordance with the time-hon-
ored custom, the President held his
New Year reception today. and we
do not remember Of ever having seen
larger crowd in attendance upon
any similar occasion.
Twelve O'Clock was the hour desig-
mated for the reception of the foreign
ministers and members of the cabi-
net, but 20 minutes before that time
they began to arrive, and the first
to enter the mansion was Mr.. AL

eral rush was made by those eager to
gain admittance to the mansion.
Marshall Lamon introduced the
visitors to the President, while Com
missioner French presented them to
Mrs. Lincoln. The President received
all with the greatest cordianty and
took each individual by the hand. The
crowd. after passing through the red,
blue, green and east rooms, emerged
from the mansion through one of the
side windows, over a substantial
wooden platform leading to the por-

titled the city and laid the founda-
tion of the Washington OF today that
his fellow natives and fellow citizens
erected this slight tribute to his
memory.
And, after due respect has been
paid to Gov. Shepherd, may the writer
further suggest that the many late
arrivals to the city step inside the
main door of the Municipal Building
and view the bronze bust of Crosby
S. Noyes, who, personally, and with
the force Of his powerful newspaper.
backed up Shepherd in all the good
work he did for the Capital City Of
the Nation and made it possible for
him to carry on at time when Con-
gress would do substantially nothing.
INDEED, at a period much earlier
than this, when the conditions here
were even worse, If possible. 1t was not
infreQuently that residents and
transients alike frequently made fun
of this deplorable situation, as "Old
Chronicler" did when he sent to the
Intelligencer the following letter, in
which he said:
THE 28th of last month, as a Fred
erick County wagner was .whistling,
his team, consisting Of six fine horses,
all merrily jingling their bells, just as
he came near the valuable improve

the Secretary Of State, driver, wagon,
horses and all suddenly disappeared.
Luckily. however, the end of the
drivers whip remained visible above
ground. which, being laid hold of by a
hackman, brought the whole affair to
light.

great hole near the Mansion House
Hotel, and would certainly have dis

his assistance by the aid of which

Two days after, a lady In a large
hat was pulled out of hole near
the corner of F street by the feathers,
as it happened, very luckily, that her
hat was fastened to her head by three
dozen and half hatpins. N. B.
The lady did not wear false hair.

inquired the nearest way out.

too much for them"
CONSIDERABLE has been written
since Lincoln's death of the way
Mrs. Lincoln packed up and carted
away nearly everything in the White
House that was not nailed down, and
though some of the statements might
be true, yet it is more than likely that
the majority we're without foundation
aud could not be proven, and yet,
were it all true, a person in the frame
of mind she must have been in after
the death Of the President. deserved
the pity of all rather than the censure
of single soul.
Mrs. Lincoln was not seccud Lady
Macbeth woman of iron nerve
but Just such a woman, and with the
same impulses, passions, and tender
emotions as we might find anywhere
in Washington today, and few women
during the entire Civil War suffered
more real heartaches and genuine sor-
rows than did she.
In 1852 her son, William W., died
in the White House; her half brothers,
Samuel B., David and Alexander Todd,
and her brother -in-law, Maj. Gen
Ben Hardin Helm, died fighting fol

it all, the President was asssSsinated
Indeed, it is hard to see how any
woman. of a tender, sympathetic ma
ture, such was Mrs. Lincoln's, could
under such circumstances, retain k-
tact her mental faculties. But, prob
ably, at no time did her condition
warrant her son, Robert. in placing
her in an asylum for the insane.
However, her sister, Mrs. Edwards
came to her rescue and petitioned the
court for her release, and she was
found sane, after which she was re-
leased on June Is, 1876, after having
