COOK’S CASH. Afraid of Banks. Nevada Mail. M. B. Cook, a farmer who resides in Barto. county, two wiles south of Irwin on the Lamar and Sheldon road was robbed of $1,500 recently while his family wes absent from home. Mrs. Cook and her daughter Mrs. Ashbaugh, were visiting at Sheldon atthe time. Mr. Cook and a hired man were at workin a field near by. When Mrs. Cook and her R. E.

Among the buildiugs burned was the Farnam opera house. One fireman was kill- ed and a number badly injured. While the department were fighting the fire at the opermhouse five other alarms were sounded in different parts of the city and the force had all they could attend to for five hours. The latest fake that has struck us is a gang of men asking permiseion to paint farmers’ barns for the priv ilege of placing a sign thereon. As the work progresses they ask their | farmer friend to sign a paper in evi ! dence of its being done, which later, shows up at some bank in the form | of a promissory note. Every farm- er should establish a shotgun quar- | antine about his premises against | all sorts of agents.—Ex. | When such men as Judge Reese! and Sheriff Colyer get wrapped over | the knuckles because forsooth, the editor of the Times does not like them, then any other man can afford to care but little for animadversions. —Democrat It may be possible the Times has made mistakes in its career and said things it might have left unsaid. But there is one thing the Trves has not been guilty of. It has never played a man of Judge Reese's intelligeuce for afool Not even to court fayor in the matter of a little county print- ing. daughter returned late in the evening they found that the trunk, which had been a receptacle for Mr. Cooks cash, had been opened and the boxes containing the money were lying on the floor. $1,200 of the money was in gold and $300 in paper. Mr. Cook 18 at a loss to know how any one knew of the money being kept there as he had had it for years without even the knowledge of his family.
