S. B. Yeoman’s Report.

A suitable recognition of the great kindness rendered the drouth sufferers of Gosper county,Nebraska, by the generous citizens of Indiana, as well as a proper showing of the disposition made by Mr. S. B. Yeoman of the grain received at the hands of the doners, would seem to require a published statement in regard to the matter: To this end Mr. Yeoman has furnished us the following data, with a request to publish: From Remington and vicinity he received 537 bu. of corn and $56.81 cash, receipts for which he placed in the hands of W. O. Roadifer. From Brook and vicinity he reports 250 bu. oats and 348 bu corn, receipts in the hands of L. B. Blankenbaker, From Morocco and vicinity, 205 bu. oats and 224 bu. of corn: receipts in hands of Rev. A. L. Clark of M. E. church. Donors paid freight charges to Chicago on this car. Mt.-Ayr contributed $ 112.53 cash, receipts for which are in the hands of Ira J. Sayler. From Rensselaer and vicinity he reports 637 bu. corn, 500 lbs. of flour and 10 pounds of tea, receipts in hands of The Nowel 4 s Milling Co. With the cash received, flour has been purchased for distribution by the County Relief committee in whose hands the money was placed. Not the least important feature in this transaction is, that the distribution among tbe various precincts in the county, has been entirely satisfactory to all the parties concerned, and in behalf of a grateful people we extend to the generous donors heartiest thanks.—The Inde-pendent-Citizen, Elwood, Neb.
