S. Sanders Monday morning. The Doctor for severa month has had a withering of one of his lower limbs accompanied by acute pain. This was caused by the contraction of the sciatic nerve. The operation consisted of opening the thigh to the sciatic nerve and then stretching the nerve to its natural length. To accomplish this a pair of hand scales were used, and the nerve stretched until the scales register ed 40 pounds. The Doctor recov ered nicely from the immediate effects of the operation and is making satisfactorily progress toward complete recovery. Stock Sold Well. The report from the Delaney sale near Maud last Wednesday is that stock all sold well. 1 mare brought $250, 1 draft colt sold for 510. The native ewes averaged about $4 per head. 45 heifers averaged $27 per head. Brood sows sold for from $15 to $20 and seven jennets and two colts averaged over $200 per head. Mr. Jacobs also assisted Armon Drake at a sale east of Bethel last Saturday and reports stock selling well there also. The late fall and the abundance of pasture is mak ing farmers look for stock.

Frank Thomas has rented the Shale building and is fixing it up for a nickelodium. He expects to open up Friday night with a free show and give his first pay show Saturday night. Frank has purchased an entirely new outfit and will put on nothing but the cleanest and best reels. 300 Blacks Imported. JohnEllsperman Jr. has collect ed evidence and information, which he will import to Judge Culver in the St. Louis contests. to the effect that over 300 negroes. were herded at Memphis, Tenn., and shipped to St. Louis secretly to be used in the 1910 election. These negroes were met by Re publican politicians and some unloaded at Jefferson Barracks, some at Tower Grove and some at Broadway station. They were shipped over the Iron Mountain and few were allowedjto ride into Union Station, as they would at tract too much attention there. A white Republican politician went after them and brought them to St. Louis. Each negro gave a ficticious name at the registration. For carpets and 9x12 rugs see Eberhard'. Want New Depots. 1 Canton, Palmyra and Shelbina are sion.linr lots of good time in i trying to get thr ' Burlington to j erect new depots at their respec- j tive towns. These villages should ; have large and spacious depots for I the accommodation o; their citizens, who couldn't sleep at niirht if they hadn't seen every train pass during tve day. It is an important matter There is a big bunch of men each day who congregate at these places and talk about the women, and say tilings rsal cute and witty if a .irl or woman happens to look out of a car window. Then there is always a few girls who regularly- meet the trains to Ihrt a little with the bra key or baggage man. The railroad .should furnish these people more commodious quarters. The citizens of Clarence are so busily engaged in piling up bank deposits, and in attending to business that they care very jiittle about a depot. T! jy seldom go to the depot only on business, transact their business and hurry away. When leaving town they give themselves just time enough to get to the depot, buy a ticket and get on board '.he cars.. jThe regularity with which thcBur-liugton run their trains greatly aids in this performance. Clarence citizens have ! time"to wssle loafir.g around a depot. If the Burlington wants lo put "a new depot at Clarence f r theaccoin-niodation of their employees and for their own pleasure, the town board will not get out an njunc tion to stop them: but we haven't time to fuss with the Railroad about so unimportant a proposi-tian. Dam Breaks Killing 250. A flood, followed by (ire, killed 250 people in Austin, Pennsylvan ia. last Saturday. The water came from the reservoir of the Bay less Pulp and Paper Company, which is located a mile and a halt above the city, which has about 3200 inhabitants. The town was in a valley below the reservoir. ThAdum was 530 feet bnsr. 4'.t feet high and 32 feat thick at the base and was made of concrete It held back over 500 million gallons of watar. It had been con structed two years and this was the lirst time water had ever ran over the top, which was caused by the recent heavy rains. The wall of water 20 feet high swept over the town at 2:30 o'clock Saturday afternoon. The inhabitants had no warning until the town was engulfed. Gas mains were broken and fire followed the water Hardly a residence or building of any kind was left standing. War Declared. War was declared last Friday by Italy against Turkey after the latter nation had refused to recognize Italy's right to seize Tripoli. Italy demanded that Turkey, which has dominated Tripoli for 300 years, should surrender all rights to Italy so that the African Colony could be developed. Tri poli is very fertile on the coast, a desert in the interior; but capable of great development. The New Collector. The city last week employed Miss Jennie Farrell as collector of the electric light accounts. These bills are due the tirst of each month and should be paid promptly. Miss Jennie is a good collector and the city's interests along that line will be well cared for. Mrs. Rev. M. H.
