REX SOX DEFEAT
DE VOL'S VICTORS
OF THE BLUFFS
From Tuesdays Daily.
Yesterday alernoon the Red Sox
copped their eighteenth straight vic
tory of the season when they captured
an excellent game from the De Voll
Victory of Council Bluffs who early in
the season had defeated the Sox, but
the boys from the Bluffs were not in
the same class with the Plattsmouth
followers of the national pastime and
were blanked by a score of 5 to 0.
In the opening inning for the
visitors Jones was walked while Cline
was warming up for the onslaught on
the Iowans, but Jones' lease was short
lived, as he was caught stealing secr
ond by Herold and retired and the two
following players were retired in
order.
In the second the Sox scored their
first run of the game when Mason
was walked by Ford, the mound artist
of the Bluffs team, and was advanced
to second on the sacrifice of Parker;
Smith was out on an easy one to sec
ond base, and here is where Pitman
busted up the Victors by a double to
right garden, on which Mason came
home with a tally. This inning saw
the finish of Mr. Ford, whose carber
ator was not working right, and he
retired to left field while Guinnee was
called in to try and stop the onslaught
of the Sox.
There was nothing more doing in
the scoring line until the seventh in
ning, when another run was chalked
up for the home team, and this after
Pitman and Beal had made outs on
high flies to left field. Parriott, fol
lowing Beal. had his batting eye busy
and smacked one of Guinnee's curves
for a safety, and later pilfered sec
ond, and wnen Graham hit to right
for a safety, came home. Herold was
out on a long drive to left field, which
Ford gathered in after a sensational
run.
In the eighth the locals heaped on
the humiliation by annexing three
more to their lead, when Cline was
given a least of life by an error by
Mahoney at first; Mason, in attempt
i'ig to sacrifice, was out on a pop-up
fly to Guinnee; Parker then laid down
on the ball for a drive to the right
garden, and when Smith connected for
a hit over third Cline scored; Pitman
was retired, Guinnee to Mahoney, but
Beal done the job for the Sox by a hit
to left that scored Parker and Smith
and ended the festal occasion with a
crushing defeat for their erestwhile
rivals, as the Victors were unable to
solve the delivery of Cline to any
effect.
This game was a benefit for Harry
Craig, the first sacker of the home
team, and as a result of the efforts of
his friends and teammates he will re
ceive a neat sum, as the receipts cf
the home team were donated to him.
The tabulated score of the game
was as follows:

LITTLE JOE SGHLATER
ACCIDENTALLY INJURED
From Tuesday's Dally.
Joseph, the little son of Mr. and
Mrs. Frank E. Schlater, was so un
fortunate Saturday afternoon as to
meet with a very serious acicdem
which resulted in the fracture of hi3
collar bone. Joe was playing with a
number of companions and they con
cluded to use him in the role of an
acrobat and proceeded to toss him up
in the air and he afiled to light on hi3
feet and instead lit on his left shoul
der, fracturing the collar bone, and
will be forced to wear his left arm
and shoulder in a sling for the next
few days.

SECOND CROP OF STRAW
BERRIES FOR THIS SEASON
From Tuesday's E)all-
The season of 1915 will long be re
membered as one full of freaks and
wonders in the production of fruit and
vegetables, and especially in the fact
that this season there has been a ten
dency top roduce moret han one crop
in the way of fruit, and that this has
been the case was demonstrated yes
terday when Mrs. J. C. Peterson pre
sented the Journal publisher with a
fine box of strawberries -which had
been picked at their fruit farm south
of this city, and is the second crop of
the year, and as fine as any you could
find in the state at any time. Riley
Jones is another who is having a sec
ond crop, as he was out this morning
in his blackberry patch and gathered
several fine lucious blackberries, which
is not bad for Nebraska to produce on
September 6th.
STRANGERS EN ROUTE
FROM CHICAGO TO KAN
SAS CITY, STOP HERE
From Tuesday's Pally.
Gustave Krueger and Charles
Boege, both of Chicago, who are en
gaged in traveling from their home
city to Kansas City by motorcyoe, ar
rived in Plattsrrouth Saturday after
noon and remained over Sunday here
for a rest before continuing on their
way to the Missouri city. They were
compelled to stop here for repairs, as
one of the machines had burned out
its" clutch and it was necessary to se
cure new repair parts here, which
were furinshed by II. Steinhauer &
Son, the Excelsior agents. They were
compelled to lose only about eighteen
hours from their schedule time. This
is the first trouble the boys have ex
perienced of any kind since they left
the Windy City a week ago. Since
leaving Chicago they have toured
northern Iowa, and made steps at
Sioux City ami Cmaha and came from
the metropolis of Nebraska to this
city. They left here at 11:30 Sunday
morning and expect to make the trip
to Kansas City and return to
Chicago Wednesday. Both are jolly
good fellows aid while here were
guests of the local Excelsior agents.

GREAT TOURNA
MENT OF KATO
LITKY TURNERS
Katolitky Sokols Tournament Brought
Many Visitors and Everything
Passed off Pleasantly.
From Tuesdays iai-v.
The fourth annual tournament of
the Katholitky Sokols, which was held
in this city, reached its climax Sun
day at noon, when the hosts of this
splendid Bohemian order from Omaha
and South Omaha arrived on their
special train at 12:40 and swelled the
great crowd in attendance at the K. S.
hall and park in the west part of the
city, and a great parade of 1,000 of
the members of the turning society
moved over the main street of our city
shortly after the arrival of the special
train from Omahi. The visitors were
met at the Burlington station by the
members of the local K. "S. society,
headed by the Bohemian brass band
and the delegations from Dodge and
other towns in the state, with their
large turning classes, while the South
Omaha delegation brought with them
a splendid band, which, with the band
of the local society, discoursed sweet
music as the parade moved west on
Washington avenue to Locust street
and thence to the K. S. hail. The par
ade was in charge of Joseph Stenik as
grand marshall and was headed by
Mayor Richey and Chief Barclay, as
well as the members of the city coun
cil in automobiles, and following them
came the hand and delegations from
Omaha and Dodge and the Platts
mouth K. S. society with their band
and turning classes.
On the arrival of the parade at the
hall the visitors were welcomed by
Frank Konfrst, president of the local
society, who introduced the different
speakers of the occasion. Rev. Father
John Vlcek of the Holy Rosary
church, who had celebrated mass for
the turners before the parade, spoke
very eloquently in Bohemian to the
members of the K. S. society and the
visitors and was followed by Rev.
Father M. A. Shine of St. John's
church, who, in the English tongue,
welcomed the visitors to the city and
expressed the appreciation of the peo
ple of the city in the holding of the
tournament here and for the splendid
organization of young men and wom
en who composed the active turners of
the 'K. S. society. In behalf of the
city, Mayor E. J. Richey welcomed the
visitors and tendered to them the free
dom of the city and assured them that
Plattsmouth appreciated the honor of
having this meeting held here.
After the speech-making turning
and dancing were enjoyed for the aft
ernoon and evening, the crowd at the
park and hall r.umbcrir.s: cloe to 3,
000, and everyone had a line time with
the pleasures afforded them by the
sterling representatives of the Bo
hemian race in this crty and state,
and there was nothing to mar the per
fect enjoyment of the great tourna
ment. The different athletic contests which
were staged at the hall were most
pleasing in every way, and in these
events the team from South Omah
proved the prize-winning one and a
great part of the prizes awarded went
to the members of this splendid or
ganization of turners. The drills by
the ladies' classes were given in a
very entertaining manner and the
large crowd of several thousand were
delighted with the work of the ladie.j
in the lines in which they were com
peting. The athletic exhibition was as
good as any seen here in the past few
years and the members of the society
here can well feel prou 1 of the show
ing they have made in the handling of
the tournament. The Omaha girls
captured - the first prize, while the
team representing Podge was awarded
the second prize for their work. Th;
judges of the tournament were: Pete:
David, John Lejsek, Anton Benda
Jacob Novy. Frank Bcchota and J. S
Gloih, and made the following award
for the different turning events:

LOUISVILLE ROBBERS
BROUGHT HERE AND
ARE PLACED IN JAIL
From TuesrJaVs Pallr.
For several months past the mer
chants and citizens of Louisville have
been annoyed by having their places
of business entered and considerable
property has been taken in this way,
and the person committing the de
predations was not known. The series
of robberies culminated Sunday ni&ht
in the breaking into of the Noyes &
Meriimun hardware store and the se
curing of considerable stuff from the
stock, including several expensive
knives, as well as two revolvers and
a l.irge quantity of shells and two
flashlights. The suspicions of th.1
business men and the marshal were
directed toward Grant Hall, a young
man who had been in tho reform
pchool and who was out on parole, as
well as Ray Howe, a companion of
Ball, and to catch them it was decid
ed that a commitee watch in different
sections of the city and endeavor to
get the goods on the boys.
This was ncocrdingly carried oi!t.
and last night Harold Koop, the
catcher of the ball team, was station
ed near the i;a!l home, where hi lay
in wait and was finally rewarded by
seeing Ball, Howe and an unknown
companion come tin and discuss In
disposition of the stolen goods, ?n
about this time Koop got busy and
told the boys to throw up their han..
at which they started to run. but
few shots halted them and the t.v
boys mentioned above weie capture
but the third one was not oveihaulc
and made good his getaway.
This morning the two boys wev
brought in to be put on the cai pet k
fore County Attorney Cole, and were
accompanied by Marshal Alloway. r
well as several others of the Levi
vine people wno nave suil erect tro-r
the depredations of the robbers. Th

was picked up this morning and loilg

AUTOS PUT OUT OF
COMMISSION AND
BOYS WALKED IN
Last evening when the members of
the ball team and a few of the root
ers were returning from Glenwood
they met with a rather disagreeable
experience, which resulted in a part
of the trip being completed on foot,
as the motor truck and automobile
which was used to convey the party
became out of commission, and al
though every effort was made to re
pair the damage, it was necessary to
leave the cars on the road over night.
The first car was stuck just this side
of the ferry, when the gear was put
out of commission, and the machine
refused to make its way through the
mud, while the truck was stalled a
short distance from the ferry on the
other side of the old Missouri, when
the chain which furnishes the driving
power broke and compelled the party
to move on to this city minus the
truck. The muddy roads made the
work of driving the heavy cars a hard
job and the strain proved too much for
the machinerv.
