SPECTAGULAR CAP
TURE OF ROBBERS
Three Young Men Landed in Jail
Charged With Robbing Car
Bunks at Oreapolis.
Sheriff Quinton this morning made
a spectacular capture of three car
robers near the stand pipe in the
north part of the city. The three
men who were landed in jail, had
broken into the bunk car of a gang
working for the Missouri Pacific at
the Oreapolis semophore tower, and
presumably had stolen some of the
belongings of the men. They were
seen to enter the car and according
to the testimony of one of the wit
nesses the men did not have any
overocats when they entered the car
but they had two when they left. The
bunk car was standing on the tracks
io the yards here. . The party dis
covering the burglary at once noti
fied the sheriff's office and Sheriff
Quinton started out to get the men.
He impressed a team and buggy on
Main street and headed north, his
informant telling him the men had
crossed the hill to the east of the M.
P. yards and were going over in the
direction of the standpipe. It was
near the latter place that the sheriff
came np with his prey after having
driven the team on a wild run up
Sixth and other streets,' being ob
liged to change from one to the
other as the streets became bad. The
men were considerably surprised
when the sheriff dashed upon them
but offered no resistance and went
peaceably to Jail. Sheriff Quinton
says the owner of the team certain
ly did not spare them and drove
them to a finish to come up with
the culprits. The men are young,
being about twenty-two years of age
except one, who is a mere boy. The
other two are evidently profession
als in the business and have had
much experience. It is not known
just what the men took at this writ
ing, two overcoats being the only
outward signs of their plunder. The
men will remain in Jail pending the
return of County Attorney Ramsey,
who Is at Lincoln today. The race
of 'the sheriff excited considerable
attention from many spectators.

FATAL IXJTRIES FROM FALL.
C. G. Clark, a Former Thurmau Man
Falls From Telephone Pole
at Falrbury, Xeb.
Charles G. Clark, a well known
young man and former citizen of
this place, fell from a telephone ole
at Falrbury, Neb., Friday last and
sustained injuries which resulted in
his death thirty minutes later.
He was the son of K. D. Clark,
who ten or twelve years ago con-.
ducted a store in Thurman, and who
owned a farm southwest of town.
The deceased was in the restaurant
business here for a time which he
relinquished to engage In the work
of telephone lineman. He helped to
Install the Independent telephone
line which now comprises the Fre
mont County Telephone company
system. He was a brother-in-law of
T. E. Hlnes of this place and N. R
Kenady of Council Bluffs. A press
dispatch in the Omaha Bee tells of
the fatal accident as follows:
"Charley G. Clark, wire chief of
the Bell Telephone company fell
from a thirty foot pole today and
struck on his head, dying in thirty
minutes without regaining conscious
ness. Just two hours before the ac
cident, Clark had taken out an ac
cident insurance policy after being
pleaded with by his brother, who
made a special trip here for that
purpose, to provide protection for
his wife and four small children in
case he should be fatally injured in
his hazardous work."
Clark's body was prepared for
burial and shipped to Union, Neb.,
where the parents now reside, the
funeral occurring Sunday afternoon.
Thurman (Iowa) Times.
Will Be Swept Hereafter.
Some mean persons who had swept
their streets this morning perpetrat
ed a low down, ornery trick on some
of their less energetic neighbors by
putting up signs in the street in
front of their places of business, one
of which read, "No tresspassing on
this field" and another read, "$5 fine
for gardening here." They seemed
to labor under the delusion that the
rich, ripe soil which encompassed the
streets thereabouts were intended
as a field for com planting or to
raise the luscious pumpkin in. The
parties whose portion of the street
had been decorated did not seem to
appreciate the Joke but the neighbors
had a merry laugh at them and the
passing throng also made merry over
the humor of the sign painters. It
is reported that the street in front
cf these places will be swept in the
future to prevent anymore such
humorous demonstrations.
Ills First Visit.
Dan Fenteman, who lives near
Elrawood in Otoe county, yesterday
made the first visit he ever made to

renidtnt of the vicinity of Elmwood
for forty years. He expressed him
self as most agreeably surprised at
the city and at its size, having en
tertained a delusion that the place
wes a small town. He should make
his visits more frequently and he
will like the city and its people more
as he gets better acquainted.
