the birth still born of their infant,
which occured Thursday eveoiug
last. Mrs. Hay is improvingslowly.
Born Tuesday evening July 11th,
to Mr. and Mrs. Chris Jessen eastof
town, a fine chubby babe, the same
as all other infants with this ad
ditional start it haB two well de
veloped teeth.
While cutting hay, one day last
week, the team of mules belonging
to Andrew Denesen became fright
ened and ran away, breaking the
mower to pieces. Luckily, no other
damage was done.
One of the baloons sent up at At
lantic a few days ago dropped in a
vacant lot four miles north, setting
fire to the dry
graBS.
Timely assis­
tance extinguished the threatened
spread of a big fire.

again denied them.
The Benton Bros, of North Branch
drove in twenty head of two year
old Hereford steers last Saturday
that waa certainly prime beef and
fit for any market under the sun.
The Benton boys are all good far
mers and when it comes to fitting
cattle for market they can always
be found with the goods.
It certainly pertains, to a clouded
condition of an editor's brains,
when he takes such pleasures and
pains, in telling the public (most of
whom don't care a lick) about the
little troubles that occur in the
neighboring town. Tbey said
"Smith was arrested down there
and fined five dollars" while several
Jones had been arrested up there
and nothing said about it. Is that
fair? Then John Doe made a die
tarbance on the streets, was fined
$5.00 and trimmings down at
while two young men stole a team
there, sold it in Omaha, were
caught, broke jail and are free, and
atill no mention waa made of the
crime, Are we giving our sister
town impartial news in such repor
ting?
