Nebraska town fights rabies
By Marcy Peterson Journal staff writer

125 years ago

MERE MENTIONS: The boys of Dakota City tell how Ben Hart found a bottle that he supposed contained peppermint in a barn, and took a snort of the same, only to find that it was mustache dye. A very sore mouth was the consequence of the mistake.

HANDS OF TIME: A citizen has been investigating the city clock question, and is satisfied that a good clock for the courthouse tower, with electric light attachments for nights, can be procured for $400. He suggested that the city stand half and the county the other half.

CATTLE TRADE: The sixteen Tredway steers sold by Ed Webster of Woodbury township, to Kent of St. Paul at $6 per 100 pounds, amounted to $1,602.90, or a trifle over $100 a head. This is believed to be the best price realized on a lot of steers recently in these parts. They were Shorthorn grades.

WELL ISN'T THAT SOMETHING: John Priest, a resident of Homer, Neb., had fallen in a well that was forty-eight feet deep. A Dakota county man, in town yesterday, brought the additional intelligence that Mr. Priest remained there forty-eight hours after falling in, and was yet unconscious when last heard from. He had been at a neighbor's farm and was returning home at night when, in passing through his own barn-yard, he walked into the disused well.

CALL FOR HELP ANSWERED: Mrs. Catherine Felner left yesterday for Calliope, east of which station she is to act as nurse in a family afflicted with smallpox. The lady went fully warned that this city would be quarantined against her return.

LET'S ROLL: S.N. Cornwall, who has conducted roller skating rinks at Cheyenne and Deadwood, has leased the ground at the southeast corner of Sixth and Nebraska streets and will open a rink Thursday evening. A floor 60 by 100 is being laid and a canvas top will be erected. The famous Richardson ball bearing roller skates will be used. Mr. Cornwall will not permit anybody but ladies and gentlemen on the floor.

FISHING GAME: The bass fishing season in the state of Nebraska will open next week. Dennis Finnerty, of Crystal lake said the lake was full of bass and that during the last few warm days they have been leaping out of the shallow water in great numbers.

POLICE NOTES: Maud Davis, Lizzie Smith and Blanche Kimball were arrested last night by Patrolmen Carraher and James on the charge of disturbing the peace. The police say they had been making themselves conspicuous on the streets.

CLOVERLEAF: Construction of the cloverleaf interchange at the north end of the Combination Bridge across the Missouri River is 10 percent completed and running ahead of schedule. A progress report issued by the State Highway Commission noted that piling has been driven, the floor poured and walls built for extension of the Perry Creek conduit which outlets at the site.

MOTHER OF THE YEAR: Mrs. Earl A. Roadma, wife of the president emeritus of Morningside College, has been selected as 1957 Iowa Mother of the Year. Dr. and Mrs. Roadman now reside at Reinbeck, Iowa, where Dr. Roadman is pastor of the Methodist Church.

RADIO MAN: Don Stone, Mr. Radio of Siouxland, again will substitute for Don McNeill as master-of-ceremonies of the famed Breakfast Club program carried by 360 radio stations of the ABC network. The popular Sioux Cityan this time will take over the show for a full week. It will be the second appearance on the program for radio personality Stone.

BATTLE CREEK FIGHTS RABIES: Officials in Battle Creek, Neb., say they will begin a crackdown this week to rid the town of free-running dogs and cats in an effort to halt rabies spread before more problems arise. A rabid skunk attacked 2-year-old Cassie Roker Monday afternoon while the child was playing in her yard. The skunk was found to be rabid. The town is holding a clinic to vaccinate dogs, cats and other pets in the community of 900.

K-9 FIGHT: It's a matter of manpower vs. dogpower. Sioux City Police Chief Gerald Donovan has proposed the elimination of the K-9 Corps, consisting of two German shepherd dogs, from the department's fiscal 1982-83 budget. However, police officers Norman Kronick and Mike Post, the dog's handlers, vow to fight the chief tooth and nail in order to keep the unit. The City Council will decide the fate of the 21-year-old canine unit next week.

PENNEY'S ANNIVERSARY: The JCPenney Store at 607 Fourth St. will celebrate the JCPenney Company's 80th year in business with a gala celebration. JCPenney opened its doors in Sioux City for the first time on Sept. 16,1930, at 412 Fourth St. The original store was expanded to the west and underwent extensive remodeling in 1949. The new store opened in January of 1975 in the CBD-East Urban Renewal Area. Innovations such as escalators, computerized cash registers, an auto center, beauty salon and restaurant helped the store become the showplace of downtown Sioux City.

PILE OF POT: An estimated $168,000 worth of marijuana hidden on a Monona County farm was confiscated Friday in what one official has called the largest pot seizure in the county's history. The cured marijuana had been stored in a sealed grain bin for an undetermined amount of time and was recently discovered by tenants who lived at the farm, said Dennis Smith, Monona County sheriff. The 10 bales and two garbage bags of pot, weighing 260 pounds, were seized by Smith and two deputies.

OTHER SCHOOLS EXAMINE WHITING: Some Iowa school administrators, faced with spiraling costs and static or decreasing income, have been looking at a system now in use at Whiting, Iowa. The system in used involves three subjects per semester and two semesters per year. Classes are 1 1/2 hours long. Students can complete six courses each year instead of the traditional four or five and graduate with 46 hours of credit. Superintendent Ken Northrup says the system lets them save money "because we can teach more classes with fewer teachers." Norton says, "We implemented this program 10 years ago. Since then our ITED scores have gone up 10 points and have remained there."

These items appeared in The Journal March 26-April 1, 1882, 1907, 1957 and 1982.
