Moore of the M. L. church Mr. Charles Abel of Emerson, and Mrs. M.

F. Trus.sell of St. Joseph, Mo. Mr. and Mrs.

Abel, after a short sojourn in Omaha and Council Bluffs, went directly to their new home on a farm near Emer80n. Mrs. Abel has resided in St. Louis and St. Joseph for the last few years, but thinks she will be delighted with her country home.

Mr. Abel is Jone of our successful farmers: and is very happy with his new wife. During the extreme cold weather last February John Benscoter of Plattsville township went over to Plattsmouth and partaking too freely of liquor lay over night in an alley in that city badly freezing his hands and feet. In the trial of the damage suit for $10,000 which Mrs. Julia A.

Benscoter brought against the Plattsmouth saloonkeepers for selling her hueband the liquor the jury after being out a day and a half failed to agree and were discharged. The suit was brought in the United States court at Omaha and another trial will likely take place. Dennis Dwyer of Plattsmouth was the attorney for Mrs. Benscoter, the four saloonkeepers sued being Broback Nitka, Ed. Donat, Fred Egenberger and Hans Goos, together with their bondsmen.

At Chicago last Saturday the jury in the case of the Illinois State Univerity against the bondsmen of Chas. W. Spaulding brought in a verdict for $231,000 in favor of the university. The amount sued for was $575,000, the total amount of the bond being $600,000. The verdict was a big surprise and it is likely a new trial will be.

ordered on account of the small amount found by the jury. Spaulding it will be remembered was an old time resident of Glenwood, being at one time city engineer. He was for a number of years associated with the late Wm. Kempton in the sale of railroad lands. Spaulding is now serving out a sentence: in an Ili nois state prison for fraudulanc banking and wrongfully using fuuds entrusted to his care as treasurer of the state university.

One of his men was John Hayes of Red Oak and in a suit brought by the university about a year ago the jury decided that Hayes was exempt from liability on the bond for some technical reason. Spaulding was angociated among others with H. G. Cilley, also a well known former Glenwood citizen, in the Globe Savings Bank at Chicago is complete in all these seasonable several goods.

Still his mind bright and never failed till after final failure set in. He was at the table for breakfast Sunday morning before his death and had been at the table for nearly every meal up to that time. He left the table feeling very and went to his bed from which he never again arose. He was conscious till Monday night and recognized all his children who were hastily summoned to his bed side. But the decline from that time was rapid, and nine o'clock and ten minutes Thursday night Dee.

21st he passed away peacefully and without a struggle. He was buried Saturday at 1:30 p.m, Dec. 23, in the Emerson cemetery the side of his life helpmate who died in Feb. 26th, 1894. He leaves children to mourn his loss.

All were present at the funeral except the oldest Charles, living in Indiana, and son, who was detained by an invalid wife. Besides the above and Attorney O. Patrick, of Glenwood, the children are: A. F. Willis' and Miss Jessie, all of Emerson; A.

Renstrom estate in trying to find the per heirs to which to pay the money in his charge some 81200. Renetrom who was a bachelor died in August, 1898. He had two brothers living in Illinois and some sisters and nephews and nieces living in Nebraska, while his father lived at Kritedella, Sweden. It seems: when the family came to America the children changed their name and this tangled up matters. Then after hunting up the father, whose name WAS Andrew Carlson, and while Mr.

Creamer was in correspondence with him the former died. This tangled up matters still worse. The law of Iowa says the of kin" when an unmarried dies is the parents to whom person the money should be paid. After the father's death the administrator was unable to get the authorities in. Sweden to appoint a proper person over there to receive the money so Judge Smith wag asked to help him out.

With his bland, good natured smile and pen and ink his honor soon untangled the troublesome knot for Mr. Creamer, by issuing an order that was expended for a monument in the Henderson cemetery. the balance should be sent to Sweden to the administrator of the father's estate, who after following up several rods of red tape will then send the money, if by that time there is any left, back to America where in course of a few years it may reach the pockets of the deceased Mills county man's brothers and sisters.
