MURRAY IS
AGAIN VISITED
BYJOBBERS
WHO FORCE ENTRANCE SATUR
DAY NIGHT TO THE STORE
OF HIATT & TUTT.
The activities of the unto bandits
over the county continue and this
time they have once more made Mur
ray I tie target of their operations and
the store of Iliatt & Tint was the
loser by some $200 worth of their
stock, which was taken from the
shelves and show rases and evidently
tarried away by auto.
The robber secured entrance to
the store by breaking the glass in
the front door of the building, crawl
ing in and then opening the rear
doors, through which the spoils were
curried.
From indications found of the
work of the burglars on the rear
dcx.r of the store they had evident ly
attempted to use that way of getting
into the stour in the first place but
a ere foiled in their efforts. Holes
had been drilled near the lock that
allowed the catch to be sprung, but
two large wooden bars were used to
hold the door in place and these the
burglars were unable to move and
had to resort to breaking the glass
in the front door in order to get into
the building.
As far as could be ascertained
from the 1 1 n t y inventory of the
stock, there is something like $20u
worth of merchandise missing from
the store and this is composed large
ly of leather coats, cigars and ciga
rettes, as well as a few sweaters and
orlier articles of clothing. In the
rear of the store in the alleyway two
of tlie leather coats were found, hav
ing evidently been dropped while
being loaded into the auto of the
robbers.
The robtiers did not tamper with
the safe in the store although they
had evidently overhauled the cash
register, but there was nothing aside
from a few pennies in this and they
did not bother to take the small
coins.
The night callers were evidently
particular as to their cigarettes, for
they took only the Camels in the
stock, leaving the others untouched.
The general aspect of the job is
similar to th robbery committed a
lew weeks ago at the Sheldon store
in N'ehawka. the same methods of at
tempting to gain entrance to the
store having been used only in this
case they were not able to force
the rear door as easily as they did
at the Sheldon store.
It is thought that the robbery oc
curred about !::',( Sunday morning
as several of the residents of Murray
I . t 1 1 l 11111 I lit Ileal U I lie IUIWU 111 i
ar. automobile engine about that time'
oi the night and this was without
doubt the car of the unwelcome visi
tore. The robbery was not discovered un
til yesterday morning and by that
tin.e the gang bad plenty of oppor
tunity to seek refuge in their hang
outs in Omaha or Lincoln, as they
were evidently a part of the auto
bandits that have been operating in
the small towns of this part of the
state.

YOUNG MEN HUNT
ING GET IN TROUBLE
Omaha Parties Shoot Pigeon at Farm
of Lawrence Stull and Turned
Over to Sheriff.
From Mordny's Dally.
Yesterday morning Sheriff C. D.
Quinton was called out to the home
of Lawrence Stull. north of the city,
by a message announcing that two
young men had shot a pigeon on the
Stull farm and that the power of the
law was desired to punish them for
their shortcoming. The sheriff made
' the trip and found on his arrival
there that the two young men were
Harry Palmer and Ed Kelso, who
gave their residence as Omaha, and
that they had come down to hunt
ducks along the Platte, but found
considerable ice in the river and did
: not put their boat in the stream,
leaving it on the auto truck that they
brought with them and while await
ing the flight of any stray ducks hail
saw the flock of pigeons and decided
to take a shot at them and with the
result that they had killed one and
this brought a protest from Mr. Stull,
jon whose lond they happened to be
I at the time. The sheriff brought the
two young men in to this city and
they made arrangement to come
down next Saturday and talk the mat
ter over with the county attorney, as
the offence was not serious and the
boys were wt.rking in Omaha and
could not afford to lose the time to
remain over.' Sheriff Quinton allow
ed them to return home and to appear
later and discuss the matter with
County Attorney Cole.

DREAM OF
LONG STAND
ING REALIZED
AMERICAN LEGION LEASES CLUB
ROOMS OVER NEB. GAS &
ELECTRIC OFFICE.
From Monday's Dully
The dream that has been upper
most in the minds of the officers and
members of the local American Le
gion post ever since, its inception
nearly a year and a half ago the
outfitting of a club home is about
to be realized.
On Saturday afternoon a commit
tee from the Legion effected a two
year lease on the upper half of the
Leonard building over the Nebraska
CJas and Electric company's office.
Possession is to be given December
1st, and already a committee is bus
ily engaged looking after the secur
ing of furnishings for the new club
rooms. Paint and paper are includ
ed in the plans for making the place
as inviting as possible.
The upstairs is partitioned into
two large rooms at present, and with
the exception of a kitchen at the
rear of the building no change will
be made in the interior arrangement.
The front room will be made into a
lounging, reading, writing and meet
ing room, ami the plan is to keep it
heated at all times. Hack of this
will be the athletic room, where a
wrestling mat and other parapher
nalia will be installed as rapidly as
the finances of the Legion will per
mit. Here also will be stored the
folding chairs necessary to seat those
present at meetings of the entire
post.
The bulletin board will be remov
ed to the new location soon and will
be placed on the wall in the opening
leading to the stairway, where the
members may keep posted on late
information without having toeven
climb the stairs.
The furnishings will be arranged
with a view to making the place as
home-like as possible and consistent
with the limited resources available,
The athletic equipment will also
necessarily be limited in quantity at
the start, on this account, but it is
hoped that friends of the Legion
will be responsive to their needs and
aid the boys in properly outfitting a
place of meeting. In this, the ladies
of the Auxiliary will have a part,
and the rooms will be placed at their
disposal for meetings.
As soon as possible after posses
sion is obtained, and probably about
the middle of December. a house
warming reception will be given to
which all the people of Plattsmouth
and vicinity will be invited.
The building being centrally lo
cated makes it easily accessible and
it is certain that the executive com
mittee of the Legion could not have
made a more satisfactory selection.
The Journal takes pleasure in con
gratulating the Legion boys upon
the acquisition of club rooms and
trusts the business men and citizens
generally will show their apprecia
tion of the services they performed
during the late war by aiding and
assisting them in outfitting their
new home.
AGED LADY DIES

Mrs. Elvira Snell Passed Away This
Morning at the Advanced Age
of Seventy-Nine Years.
From Jlonnay's Dally.
Mrs. Elvira Snell. one of the aged
residents at the Nebraska Masonic

illness and which culminated in a
stroke of paralysis some four months
ago, just after the admission of Mrs.

1841 and within a week would have
celebrated her seventy-ninth birth
day. She had been a resident of Lin

known in that city where she had
passed so many years of her life time.
Some four months ago she was ad

quest of Lincoln lodge No. 19 A. F.
& A. M. and at the time of her ad
mission was in very poor health and
shortly afterwards suffered a para
lytic stroke that left her bedfast and

more serious until death came to her
relief.
A daughter. Miss Eva Snell and a
close friend. Mrs. Fredericks, arrived
this morning from Lincoln and will
accompany the body of Mrs. Snell
back to her old home where the fun
eral services will be held. The fun

'langing ov. r Europe is wi" of intci -
J and gives one the inside siory
vht conditions were in that portion
;f the Austria-llunuurian monarchy
luting the period of the war. This
iady resided at Komna. in the state
of Aloravia. a town that numbers be
tween 2. 'too and ::.otto inhabitants,
'ind this community suffered greatly
!'rt in he effect.-, of the war as the in
hibitan's v. '-re not in sympathy wi'b
the c.'. i t of their masters and while
they were many of them engaged in
'he army of the Central powers their
hearts were longing for the day of in
dependetice. When the war had
broke out the food and other sup
plies w?re ordered turned over to the
government and the residents were
put on rations, only a certain amount
o; fnndsTuu' lieir.g allowed and this
was gradually reduced as the war
'e;t on ever the course of four years.
Many times the lines at the stores
awaiting the opportunity to p:;
e'aunge their ration tickets for the
small amount of foodstuffs allowed,
would exttnd for miles. The grain
ration prr day was one-half pound
to rarii person and this was in the
unnround grain that shrank greatly
in the grinding and in most cases
was far insuHW ient to permit it being
made into bread. To avoid the tak-i-ig
of all the feed supplies the resi
dents resorted to ail manner of sub
terfuges to save their food from fall
ing into the hands of the government
ofl'cials. Often strawstacks would be
!Vi-vt i--v.id the-food buri.wl beneatfc
the ground and the stacks placed back
to cover the ?pot and even the con
cealment of the food in boxes buried
in piles uf manure and in the winter
time in the deep snow drifts was re
sorted to by the residents of Komna
and vicinity. The penalty if anyone
was caught concealing the food was
ten years imprisonment and if there
was any hiding places of the food un
earthed by the Austrian government
the party burying the food was cer
tain not to claim it.
Durinsr the worst of the privations
the residents resorted to the use of
parched rye in what limited e.uanti
ties they could secure for coffee while
eo v.- beets were boiletl and the juice
-ecured for sweetening purposes. The
ise of straw ground un very fine was
.-esoited to as a .substitute for flour
in the dark days of suffering and ev
en these pitiful food substitutes were
often denied to the residents of that
portion of the country. In speak
ing of the clothing supply during the
war Miss Haluza states that paper
substitutes for cloth was used but
this was not waterproof and many a
handsome costume was soaked off in
a heavy rain storm.
Th residents were cheered by the
entry of America in the war and on
the 2Sth of October when the crumb
ling of the Austrian monarchy as
.suted their independence the resi
dents of Bohemia and Moravia were
wild with joy and great demonstra
tions were held in all the towns and
villages of the country. Everyone
old and young joined in the festivities
and the end of the conflict brought
the realizations of hundreds of years
of weary waiting for a free country.
The residents were compelled to
display the yellow and black flags
of Austria during the war but as the
rrVimhling fortunes of that country
m;ub' themselves clear these flags
were consigned to huge bonfires and
figures clothed in the Austrian uni
forms were also burnt at the stake so
intense was the feeling of rejoicing.
Since the establishment of the
Czecho-SIovikia republic the con
ditions have much improved and the
old terror of the rulers has vanished
and the conditions are gradually ad
justing themselves although the cost
of food and clothitiur is still high
it can lie purchased if desired at the
price. The people are more content
ed and feel an undying gratitude for
the part America had in freeing them
from their former masters.
Miss Haluza sailed from Rotter
dam. Holland on October 2?Hh and
nr rived in New York on November
10th and as soon as released by the
immigration authorities started west
ward for the home of the sister she
httd so longed to se? in the far off
state of Nebraska. Miss Haluza is
twenty vests of age and previous to
coming to this country had not trav
eled very extensively but was for
tunate in having a number of friends
and neighbors in the party that she
came over with and these settled in
Chicago and Omabi. while this young
!rdy -nme on to F!r!ttsmouth. With
her she brcught some of the prunes
rnd walnuts from the farm of her
father, John Haluza and which are a
, pleasing show ing of a part of the
' cror.s grown in the old country and
to Mr.1?. Panos was a much enjoyed
romemberanco of the old home. She
litis not fully realized what she
thinks of the l'nited States as its
immensity has rather dazed her and
on the journey west her happiness at
ai riving in the laud of liberty was
so great that she ft'ilcd to sei much
at the country, being constantly
awaiting the nay that' siie might
reach I'lattsmouth and meet the sis
ter she had not seen for a great many
yea rs.
One incident related by this lady
Jhows that after all the world is not
so large as one might thing. Dur
ing tne war Mrs. I'anos made up a
Red Cross bag that wa.s sent to the
Czech soldier, fighting in Siberia
and in this was enclo.-ed a card giv
ing the name of Mr. and Mrs. I'anos
and their home in the old country
and a young man who had been a
playmate received the package and
recognized in the name the little girl
with whom he had gone to school.
The Red Cross bag had traveled
more than half way across the world
and by good fortune found one who
was an old friend of the lady making
the bag.
