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.

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. Chadron Chronicle.

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. Chadron
