SATURDAY NIGH
MASK BALL
T
AT ICS. HALL
A Very-Large Attendance and One
of the Most Enjoyable Events
of the Season the Result.
7."
One of the largest crowds that
Phas ever assembled' in the Kato-
ditky Sokol hall was present Sat
urday evening" on the occasion of
:the third annual masquerade of
.that society, and the hall was flll
ed to its utmost capacity by the
Inerrymakers and the array of
costumes was bewildering and
'jlazzling to the eyes. Some very
"elaborate costumes, as -well as. a
great, many -of the comics, were
shown on the floor and the mat
ter of. picking- out the prize win
ners was a.diflicult job, as there
were so many that really were
deserving -of prizes. The first
gent's prize was given to Joseph
Scoda, who was garbed as an In
dian of terrifying appearance,
while Anton II. Koubek of Oma
ha, as a comical Dutchman, car
ried off the : second prize. Mrs.
Joseph Sedlock won the first
ladies' .prize, being attired as a
representative of . the K. S. so
ciety, and' Emil Stenik secured
the second ladies prized for his
costume as an old country lady
and his actions had everyone
guessing as to his identity, and
he made a big hit with the young
men on the floor, before tthe
masks were removed.
This ; ball was a great success 1
in every way and all who were in;
attendance felt that they had one
of the most pleasant times of!
their lives in the dance. The
music was furnished by the
PlattsmOuth orchestra and the
dancers were greatly pleased with
the delightful strains of music
furnished by this organization.
There were a large number in at
tendance from Omaha and South
Omaha at the dajice, and the
festivities continued until a late
hour, when everyone departed for
their home feeling that the
masquerade was one of the best
they had ever attended.
Do you begin to cough at
night, and just when you hope to
sleep?- Do you have a tickling
throat that keeps you awtite?
Just take Foley's Honey and Tar
Compound.' It will check the
cough and stop the tickling
sensation at once. Does not up

- . Entertains the "Hikers."
Sunday - afternoon; as . the
weather -.would not permit-.' the
usual "hike," the.. Hikers' gather
ed at the hospitable home of Ola
and Mina KafTenberger for the af
ternoon. They were" most royally
entertained, and as each one was
in some manner to entertain the
crowd, excellent readings and
music was the result. At the
proper hour the guests assembled
in the dining room and found
their places by means of dainty
place cards. Then followed a de
licious two-course luncheon, fol
lowed by toasts from each one
present. As night began to fall
the girls left, thanking their hos
tess for the pleasant afternoon.
RUSH 0. FELLOWS IS
NOW A GRANDFATHER TO
A BRIGHT LITTLE ROY
The friends of the fmily of
Rush O. Fellows, formerly of this
city, but now of Belle Fourche,
S. D will be delighted to learn
that Mr. and Mrs. Fellows are
now rejoicing in tne title or
grandpa and grandma, as a fine
new son was born to their daugh
ter, Mrs. Will G. Chase, former
ly Miss Laura De Fellows, on
January 20, and the ' following
from the Northwest Post of Belle
Fourche gives a faint idea of the
joy of the proud grandfather:
There was born to Mr. and
Mrs. Will .O. Chase, at the Sisters'
hospital at Hot Springs, S. D., on
Tuesday morning, January 20,
1914, an eight-pound boy. The
two darlings, the little mother
and her bonny little son are doing
nicely. "Foxy" Orandpa don't
know as yet what his name is to
be, nor does he care in particular,
so long as the young man may
live and grow up to be an honor
to his parents and to his four
grandparents. As this is the
first grrandchild for either family.
there is naturally much rejoicing
with both of them.
P. S. A later telegram mes
sage announces tne name of tne
ittle newcomer as Rush Fellows
Chase.

H. E. Becker was attending to
the week-end shopping in this
city Saturday and was a pleasant
caller at this office.
Last evening Fred Campbell, a
young man residing in the vicin
ity of Rock Bluffs, came; to this
city about 6 o'clock and left his
team and top buggy hitched to
the hitch rack on South Fifth
street, and when he returned at
about 10 o'clock to start home he
found there was no sign of either
the team or buggy. He at once
notified the sheriff's office and a
search was made throughout the
surrounding :country in an effort
to locate the team, but without
success, and it was thoiight cer
tain that the team had been
stolen, and the sheriff was pre
paring to send out notices of the
team to the adjourning counties
when a message was received an
nouncing that a team had been
found by James Marousek at his
home a few miles southeast of
the city on the Goos farm, and
an investigation showed that the
team was the one belonging to
Mr. Campbell.
The owner of the team is of
the opinion that the team was
taken by someone and driven out
to the locality where it was
found, while the authoirties are
of the opinion that the team be
came unhitched in some manner
and getting away wandered that
far on their way home when
found by Mr. Marousek. There
has been several cases in the past
year where teams' left hitched on
the street have been driven
around by parties and afterwards
left in some place where they
were returned to the owner, and
it is possible that this is a sim
ilar case. When found by Mr.
Marousek the hitch straps on the
team were hanging loose, as
though they had become untied
in some manner, but Mr. Camp
bell thinks that if the team had
gone clear from the city with th.e
straps in that shape they would
have tramped on the straps, and
when found there was. no marks
like this on the straps,.. The team
was a pair of sorrel mares, 5 and
6 years old, and are a very valua
ble team and the fact that they
were found is very pleasant news
to the owner.

This morning J. II. Winter
steen of Omaha was in the city
interviewing the county clerk's
office in regard to supplies, as
he represents the, Klopp-Bartlett
Co. of Omaha. Mr. Wintersteen
is a former resident of this city,
having been here some thirty
nine or forty years ago, when he
was employed on the Nebraska
Herald, then published by J. A.
MacMurphy, and the stories told
by Mr. Wintersteen of the ex
periences in the old town are in
teresting to hear, as he recalls
the many happy days he spent
here, and of the old friends now
grown to be middle-aged men
and women. Mr. Wintersteen
served both in the mechanical
and editorial"1 departments of
the Herald, and he is very much
impressed with the wonderful
changes that time has brought to
the city and its people.
