TIIB ALLIANCE IIERALD, ELLSWORTH The Ellsworth ball team defeated Lakeside on their own diamond Sun day by a 11 to 12 score, errors being numerous throughout the game. In the sixth inning Ellsworth scored 7 runs, making their twelve runs, but they were unable to score again in the remaining three innings. While Ellsworth made errors they were not bunched and in no inning was Lake side able to score more than twice. In the ninth inning Lakeside, seeing that they were beaten attempted a bit of foul play that all but worked. Their three best batsmen were lined up to bat, the Ellsworth score-keeper not be ing personally acquainted with the players did not catch the mistake un-i til after our opponents had scored but afterwards when the "Vinegar Hills" were made to bat in their correct or der the three men then to bat did not see first. Schonard, twirling for Ells worth struck out eight men; House, five, relieved in the seventh by Walt House. It was understood that Lake side was to play us here Sunday, but we cannot hear for certain from their manager, if they have one. However, as the "Vinegar Hills" are a good hunch of sports, we are sure they will not go back on their word. J. L. Young was in Hyannis during Wednesday taking some Masonic work. Mr. and Mrs. E. T. David of Denver are visiting at the Mrs. M. H. Ken nedy home after spending a few days at the Spade ranch. Longley Richards and Miss Alice Richards who have been attending school in the east are now spending their summer vacation with their mother, Mrs. M. H. Kennedy. Arrancements are being made whereby ice cream and soft drinks will be served at the Ellsworth hotel. A supply of "very near beer," ice cream, etc.. will be on hand, commencing Sat urday. Koad Overseer T. B. Shrewsbury and several men hired with teams have been working "over several of the bad .-pots in our road and many trips are possible. now that otherwise would call for an aeroplane. Agent J. B. Kennedy is now recover ing nicely from serious internal blood poisoning. Mr. Kennedy is being treat ed at the Thermopolis, Wyo., baths. D. C. Vining of Litchfield, Neb., is re lieving Mr. Kennedy at the station. Wednesday being the birthday of J. L. Young, a group of friends gathered and a surprise party was arranged. The evening was spent playing pro gressive whist after which a dainty luncheon of iee cream and angel food cake was served. A. Moore, B. F. Bollinger, P. E. Law, J. L. Young, Dennis Landrigen nnd Joe Dingier motored to Alliance Tuesday. Due to dry weather the roads are in very poor shape and in a week's time some places will be almost impassable in the sandhills if we do not receive a rain in the near future. Larry Dunn who was to accompany P. E. Law home in his new Jackson Eight .returned home Wednesday at 12:20 p. m. They left Alliance at 11 :20 and arrived home at 12:20 which is 'about the best record yet in the auto I mobile line. Guess maybe they must have expressed it on 44 and the mes senger failed to unload. I Clark Giles who has had the Vouth ' mail route for some time is now ship ping out to Wayside, Neb., where he will be engaged in the garage busi ness. Patrons on the route all regret to hear of his leaving but John Scho nard who relieves, will no doubt give the same prompt and efficient service. Mr. Schonard and family are now moving into Ellsworth. Don't forget the ball game here Sun day between the home team and Lake side. The following day, July 4, the Ellsworth team poes to Ashby to I tangle with the fast Whitman team. REAL ESTATE Box Butte County Farms and Ranches Alliance City Property NEBRASKA LAND CO. J.

They will be accompanied by Miss Daisy Adams and Dolly and Parker Davis as far as Thermopolis. To Drill ( hadron Fuld Thi Year. Eben D. Warner was over from Scottsbluff several days the latter part of last week and the forepart of this week, and while he was interested in meeting his many old friends here, most of his time was taken up in the matter of oil holdings of the company of which he is at the head. A number of legal knots are to be untied, which it is thought can be accomplished, and Mr. Warner states that he feels con dent that a test hole in Lnkota sand will be drilled in this field this sum mer. This field is recogn'zed by geolo gists and others who are interested in the oil game to be one of the best bets in the state of Nebraska. Some of the wise ones feem to be assured that the Associated Oil company are now covering up a find at the Agate well. Another test is soon to be staited near where the water well was brought in a few weeks ago at Ardmore. The Big Chief well north of Rushville now clown about 1,300 feet and it looks better for the drillers than at any time since the wll was begun and the surface indications are not as pro nounced as in the field north of this city.

Cylinder Block, TrajumJaalon Case SpcdaJtJ ALL TRACTOR PAXTA Geo. H. Brecknc Nr Iwillai Til VmI U CI Four Hail Policies Issued by Nebraska in Box Butte County The excellent stand of winter and pring wheat in Box Butte county havn resulted in a laitre number of hail policies being written. Practically all of these policies are written by agents or private companies. Although the tate of Nebraska Is in the hail in surance business and although its rates re probably somewhat lower, the fact .hat the state does no soliciting for business gives the advantage to the 'ocal agent who goes after the busi ness and interviews the farmer per Oiinlly, usually Inking his note In pay .nrnt of the premium, the note to be imid from the proceeds of the crop covered by the insurance. County Clerk Avis Jnder states that here are now ooly four hail policies r.-uod by the st.ite in effect In Box dutte county, although she is of the opinion that additional policies will be ssued soon for the protection of crops which begin to mature In July and enrly in August. The four policies now in effect cover 200 acres of win er wheat and 83 acres of spring wheat. The state requires cash in ad vance for the premium and the limit if insurance is $l.r.()0 per acre, which costs a premium of $1.20 per acre. In surance amounting to $10.00 per acre requires a preimum of 80 cents per lcre. The ytntv paid a number of losses in Box Butte county last year. News dispatches from the state cap itol at Lincoln say that the refusul of policy holders' under the so-called state nail insurance to pay premiums by June 1 for the avowed purpose of can celling their policies is causing the division of hnil insurance, department of trade ami commerce, much trouble. Chief Adjuster L. G. Brian, has re fered the matter to the attorney gen eral with the suggestion that such policy holders should be made to pay 1 pro rated amount for the time the itate assumed liability of damages by hail. He reports that many policy holder have had protection from hail under thefr policies from the fore part , of April to June 1. Because no hail came in that time and because they felt t' e season for crops and hail would be short some policy holders have allowed their policies to lapse ami carry their own insurance for the bal ance of the season. The trouble is caused by a provi don in the amended hail insurance l-i'v pas.icd by the last legislature. Former ly premiums were collected as taxes are collected upon land, but this caused long delay in collections and conse quently much delay in paying loie-. Tha legislature amended the law in many ways. Or.e change requires policy holders to pay premiums by June 1. If this is not paid by that time the policy lapses. Aninstance is reported by Attorney C. P. Anderbery of Minden, where I H. C. Milholm of Upland purposely al lowed his policy to lapse by failure to nav a bunk order given by him to the county clerk for his premium due Juno Notice required by law was sent to him in which it was stated that the -lolicy would automatically expire Juno if not naid. lhe policy nouier pur posely refused to pay with the idea that the policy would automatically expire, as stated in the notice. Mr. Anderhery says he has thu iar been unable to find anything in the law which will allow the state to recover anything on Buch a contract. The at torney general has been quoted as say ing he favored KUing all policy homers who refuse to pay after having insur ance on their crops for more than one month. Persons outside the controversy call attenfon to the fact that the state does not assume liability for losses by hail. The state merely pays out the premiums paid by policy holders and supervises the adjusting of losses and exercises other control over the busi ness similar to the state's position un der the bank guaranty law, ' Diamond Thief Captured at Dead wood. Reading like a page from a Western "thriller" is the story of the theft of Mrs. G. O. Pope's diamond ring, the pursuit by Dispatcher Pope for four days ami nights through the cities of the Black Hills, the recovery of the diamond worth $000, the final capture of the villian and his incarceration in the Dawes county jail at Chadron. Byron G. Evans and wife secured rooms in the home of Mr. and Mrs. Pope some weeks ago while Evans pursued his calling of baseball player nnd dancing instructor. While Mrs. Pope was preparing the evening meal she left her rings on the dresser. Com ing back to put them on again she dis covered they were missing. The Evans were the only ones in the home at the time besides Mr. and Mrs. Pope. Ac cused of the theft they strenuously denied it Sheriff Canfield was called and searched the couple without re sults. That evening after a violent quarrel, Mrs. Evans left town for her former home at Sutherland, Neb. Evans announced he was going to Hemingford and thence to Alliance to join the Chadron team in the baseball game there. However, he purchasd a ticket to Rapid Cty. Dispatcher Pope took the next train and after four days and nijfhts of sleuthing found where Evans had sold the ring to a Sturgis ieweler and also had Evans located at Deadwood. where he had walked through the rain and had registered under the name of A. D. Jones. As Evans was at the Deadwood ticket window disguised in old working clothes and a larire hat to conceal his face, Mr. Pope "arrested" him ami turned him over to the sheritf of that conptv. Th d'xmond riner was se cured from the Sturgis jeweler buMhe plain band ring was not found. The thief was hrourht to Chadron Tuesday night by Sheriff Canfield and is in jail here awaiting a hearing.
