BUT MORTAL
BAT IS
vsv
FURIOUS
I.ast night the residents on South
Seventh street were attracted by the
noise of what seemed to be a mortal
combat, and ever and anon the sound
of blows struck was heard, as well as
the muttered conversation of two
young men who had met in this
secluded spot and were doing battle
after the manner of their cave men
ancestors for the hand of the lady on
whom both had cast their love-lit
orbs, and from the reports the battle
waged fiercely for some time until one
of the young men was put down by a
well directed blow and the victor pro
ceeded to put the boots to his fallen.
foe in a manner tended to discourage
him from further efforts to win the
affections of their lady love, and with
victory resting on his brow the sue
cessful youth continued on his way to
woe the lady of his choice, while the
fallen foe retired in disorder back to
the trenches, as the war correspond
ents would put it.
SOX SHOWER GIVEN
BY THE COSMOPOLI
TAN CLUB SATURDAY
Saturday evening Cyril Kalina was
made the recipient of a very pleasant
farewell and sox shower, given by
members of the Cosmopolitan club at
their rooms, and the event was one
thoroughly enjoyed by the jolly party,
although it was with regret that they
were called on to part with their
friends, who is soon to leave the city
with hi bride for David City, where
they will reside and where Mr. Kalina
has an interest in a roller skating
rink. There were some seventeen
young men present and the guest of
honor was showered with a great
many pains of sox as a remembrance

SENTENCED TO
PENITENTIARY
HSNEOUS CRIME
For Which Hadsell Trook Is Given
a Term of Five Years in the
Penitentiary.
CRIMINALLY ASSAULTS SISTER
Linconi, Neb.. Oct. 17. Hadsell
Trook was Saturday morning sen
tenced by Judge Stewart of the dis
trict court to imprisonment at hard
labor in the penitentiary for a period
of five years. As the sentence was
pronounced the prisoner's countenance
assumed an ashen hue and in a mom
ent he staggered as though about to
fall. He was supported by Guard Mc
Manaman, who stood at his side.
Trook was convicted by a jury at
the present term of court of criminal
assault upon his 11-year-old sister.
The jury recommended him to the
rr.eicy of the court and asked that he
be paroled if such a thing were pos
sible. Under the law a parole from
the bench is not allowed in cases of
men convicted of rape, nor does the
indeterminate sentence law apply in
such cases. The court must definitely
fix the term af imprisonment, which is
rot less than three years nor more
than twenty.
When Trook was asked by Judge
Stewart if he hail anything to say why
the sentence of the court should not
be pronounced against him, he de
clared that he was innocent and did
not know why his sisters had testified
against him as they had. He said that
he had always been a law-abiding
ciiien, but it was impossible for him
to prove his innocence. He is 19
years old and was married to a 17-year-old
girl a week before he was
placed on trial. She swooned when the
jury returned a verdict of guilty.

splendid family, and the occasion will
be one of the rarest enjoyment to
everyone.

DON'T FORGET THE
COMING OF "THE
PRINCE OF TONIGHT"
From Ifatiirdav's Pallv.
Indications point to a record-breaking
house for the engagement of the
gorgeous musical spectacle, "The
Prince of Tonight," at the Parmele
theater on Monday night, October 25.
This popular musical fantasy has been
meeting with such marked success
that the desire to see it is the same
everywhere, and this city is no excep
tion to the rule. The production is a
Le Comte & Flesher offering, and one
may expect much in the way of good
music and clever people, especially
when the splendid baritone. Tom Ar
nold, heads the cast. Chicago placed
the stamp of approval on "The Prince
of Tonight," by extending it a pros
perous run of 20 nights, and from
the day it began its road tour the
business has been capacity.
THE COMMERCIAL
COURSE IN PLATTS
MOUTH HIGH SCHOOL
From Saturday's Dally
The class in business methods of
the commercial course of the Platts
mouth High school yesterday after
noon, under the direction of Miss Flos
sie Bute, their instructor, visited the
First National bank to inspect the
working of that institution and gain
an insight into how the affairs of an
institution of this kind is conducted.
The work of the officers and clerks
were carefully examined by the young
people who are taking up this line of
work in their studies, and many very
valuable ideas were gathered relative
to the general banking methods and
the books and equipment used in con
ducting a modern bank. The com
mercial course is proving one of the
most popular that has been installed
in the school in recent years, and the
work is such as to be most valuable
to the students in the years to come
in their life in the business work and
practical lessons will be given of the
actual methods used in commercial
work. Miss Bute, who is looking after
the teaching of the course, is well
qualified and her efforts for the young
people are certainly bringing forth
splendid results.
When Baby Has the Croup.
When a mother is awakened from
sound sleep to find her child who has
gone to bed apparently in the best of
health, struggling for breath, she is
naturally alarmed. Yet if she can keep
her presence of mind and give Cham
berlain's Cough Remedy every ten
minutes until comitng is produced,
quick relief will follow and the child
will drop to sleep to awaken in the
morning as well as ever. This remedy
has been in use for many years with
uniform success. Obtainable every
where.
