The thief, for the time, escaped. Next Day. Was a lively day in P!attmouth, anyway. In the mornin.tr Dr. (? Warner had his trial, and just as that was a'ut closed, Lavinus Patterson the Ervins and Joe Van Horn came up with the supposed horse thief. At least they brought an old fellow whom they had caucrkt in the brush near where the horses ht'd been tied, who could prive no very jrood account of himself. A warrant was made .-u and boss Marshal .Murphy took the a"cd. indigent, wet and muddy suspe-.-ted citi.tn over to the cast-iron jail, situated on the corner of this and that street, Plattsmouth.

Went down to get Ervin's to help; as we returned saw an object jump from the road, either a colt or a dog or a man. The object jumped into the creek off the bank, 5 feet 7 in. When we pot there found tracks of feet and being on horseback, higher than the others, I saw the very man in that chair, gentlemen, over in the bushes; "said "Good morning" and he said "Good morning." (Here the wit-1 ness's circumstances got mixed in w ith the tacks in the old man's shoes, and we leave the others to tell the tale.) 1 The prisoner objected to this wit- ness as being under the influence of liquor.

After he had washed his face and combed his hair he came out and we all went up by the fence and he sat down and took off his riirht shoe and wrunLT his sock out and put it on atrain. It had one biir tack in the center of the heel. The tracks in the barley and where he jumped down correspond with the shoe. Measured tracks, etc.. and hands measure up to juJ.e.

The track of this shoe and the tracks where the horses were tied are the same, also when he tried to water the horse:. the bitr tack in center of ritrht heel shows plain, (witness tells the same story about breakfast, etc.) Mary Clarence a little r:rl ten ye?rs old said: I prave the man his breakfast; about 9 o clock 1 am sure that is the man. He came from the way ( motioninc ) Had a black satch el, had boots on his feet valise larc enoutrh to hold his shoes. Went south and east through the brush. Prisoner asks if there was not an anr!inr road cut in brush? Mary says "yes." Geo. Trook saw defendant on Fri day, (tells about Van Horn coming for them, etc..) he jumed down the bank after prisoner, tells about -his washinjr, coming up taking off righ. shoe, etc., same as other witnesses. and measured the tracks, they were the same as where he jumped off. ( Hands up measure.) Prisoner asked when he measured the tracks. Witness, "Saturday They spar about rain washing them out, and when over the old man spoke up quick and sharp, like a lawyer, -That's all." Silas Patterson caught the horses and tells the subsequent proceedings about coming to town with the pris oner. Says John Osier first found the horses. Patterson followed the horse tracks from the time they were struck to where they were tied, and roje up an(j untied one horse while SOme one else did the other. There were no foot tracks in the road, and no other men tracks made where the horses watered. Miles Morgan swore that the old man crossed the bridge at his ferry, between 12 and 3 o'clock, sometime Wednesday. The prisoner "waived" an exam- ination and defense. In answer to Judge said he came from Black Hills, but when pressed further about himself, F.ail ho "wafn't pivinp; evidence now." The Judpv held him in $800 bail and asked him if he could furnish il. He said, 'shouldn't offer bail if 1 had it." YOUNG LAD DIS POSES OF STOLEN DO It u From Saturday's IJaliy. This morning complaint was filed by County Attorney A. G. Cole in the county court against Delbert Allen, charging the lad with having disposed of stolen property in the shape of two brans automobile lamps that were the property of R. L. Propst. The boy had scld the lamps to a junk dealer residing in the north part of the city and received "T cents for the two of them. The court after hearing the evidence in the case found the r oy guilty, hut suspended sentence during his good behavior and the promise to tay out of trouble. There is one feature in a case of this kind that the county attorney is laying stress upon, and that is the fact that persons purchasing goods that have been stolen are laving themselves lia ble under the law to punishment as well as the person disposing of the goods. The law states that a child has no light to enter into a contract, or make sale, and the person who pur chases goods from them under these circumstances is making themselves liable to punihment for the offense. FROST & WORLEY LEMPER CO. In a deal completed last week the Yates Lumber company yard at Man ley changed hands and the firm be comes the Frost & Worley company. The new owners are II. M. Frost and his father-in-law. II. M. Worley. Mr. Woiley is well known here, having been for some time proprietor of what is now the Wickersham hardware store. He is now superintendent of the new consolidated schools at Alvo. Mr. Frost, who married Miss Blanche Worley. is net personally known here but he is a mighty fine appearing young man and appears to be capa ble of much energy and ability. He will have charge of the yard and he and Mr. Frost have already taken up their home at Manley. They come to this countv from Merrick county. where they have recently been farm ing two and a half miles west of Cen tral City. Previous to this Mr. Frost was enraged in the retail hardware business. Following is the commendation paid them by the Central City NonpaWel. "The people of Manley are very for tunate indeed in having such an ex cellent family as this join their num ber and the business men of that city "hould congratulate themselves upon the addition of Mr. Frost to their nv'dst, as he is a live wire from start to finish and will constantly do all he can to boost the city of his adoption."

Mr. Meier states that he was coming to Plattsmouth at the time the accident occurred and not enroute back to Louisville as had been stated. MISS FRANS SUFFERS FALL.

NY KNOWN OEAO li TWIS TER'S WAKE Tornado Sweeps Eastern Indiana Over Score Perish and Hun dreds Art Injured. PORPERTY LOSS OF MILLION Hundreds of Homes Razed Fires Are Checked by Rain Trwps Sent. Indianapolis, Ind., March 11. A tor nado swept over central eastern Indi ana late today, killing more than a score of persons at Newcastle and two children in Wayne county. The total number of injured will run over 200, some of whom are probably fatally hurt. The damage will total well over 51,000,000 at Newcastle and several thousand dollars in Wayne county. Wire communication was crippled by the storm and reports were meager and hard to obtain. Adjutant General Harry B. Smith of the Indiana National Guard was at his office late tonight directing measures for reiief. He said his reports were that twenty-six were dead and l'.o in jured at Newcastle. Two companies of militia were ordered to Newcastle to police the city. Physicians, nurses, undertakers and ambulances were sent from nearby towns. Two special in terurban cars, carrying thirty phy sicians and fifty nurses, were sent from here early in the evening. At Newcastle. Newcastle. Ind., March 11. More than a score of persons were killed and 1"0 were injured, some fatally, in a tornado which wrecked 300 resi dences in this city late today. The property damage was roughly esti mater at ?1,000,000. Early tonight the list of identified dead stood at ten in the morgue, but it was said several others had been found in various sections of the wrecked district. The identified dead: GRAY DAVIS. MRS. JOHN R. DAVIS. Mrs. ARCHIE FLETCHER. EDWARD DUNL0P. JAMES NELL1S. ELIZABETH DAY. MRS. ACTE WELLINGTON and DAUGHTER, OPAL. RAZER. man. IIAYLER, girl. Expect to Find More. The exact number of dead may not be known for a day or two, as practi cally all the bodies thus far found have been dug out of the wreckage of their homes. The search tonight was ham pered by darkness, but with .the com ing of daylight tomorrow it is believed more bodies will be found. The storm swept over the city in a southeasterly direction, demolishing practically everything in a path almost two blocks wide and more than ten blocks long. For several hours the city was entirely cut off from com munlcatlon. Governor Goodrich was asked to send troops to police the city, which is in darkness tonight, owing to the demolition of the power plant. Confusion Fellows. Confusion and disorder followed in the path of the storm. Those who es caped injury and death ran wildly about the streets, women and chil dren crying and wringing their hands and men shouting and cursing. The men finally settled down and began the work of rescue, digging in the ru ins of their homes for missing mem bers of their families. Only two or three bodies were found in the streets. Several fires broke out in the wreck age on the south side, but a heavy rain kept them from spreading. While many substantial residences were dam agedthe greatest destruction was in the factory district. No Warning of Storm. There was little warning of the ap proaching tornado. A huge funnel shaped cloud suddenly appeared in the west, hanging low and sweeping tow-ard the city with lightning-like speed. Groups of persons on the streets began seeking shelter, men and women running wildly through the streets. The tornado lasted only about five minutes, and was followed by a hard rain which also stopped in a few min utes. One witness of the storm who was driving with his family in an automo - i -I . biic, reacned tne court nouse square ' when the tornado struck. Deserting his car, the man and his family sought j shelter in an excavation for a new REV. TRUSCOTT IMPROVING. Rev. T. A.

From Saturday's raily. This morning Dr. E. W.

From all portions of the city come reports of a great deal of sickness among the children of tender years, all of whom seem affected by attacks of stomach trouble, and it has kept the members of the medical profession quite busy in handling all the calls that have been made on them in the last few days. Milk in Winter. Why do your cows give less milk in winter than thev do in summer? Just because nature does not sup ply them with grasses and green food. But we have come to the as sistance of Dame Nature with B.

We guarantee that this remedy will make your cows give more milk, and better milk with the same feed. II. M. Soennichsen. Puis & Gansemer. NOTICE OF SALE UNDER CHAT TEL MORTGAGE.
