Much traffic is row being movcil
on the lailroad lines of Nebraska. Ne
brask.i farmers are going to market
and if the markets were good the
amount of traffic moved would be
.much greater. A slump in the cattle

have waited a
while longer.
Monday mere than S00 cars were
delivertd to the Omaha livestock
yards. It is said that even with this
heavy shipment all the cars were
spotted and unloaded before S:".( in
the morning. The railroads are point
ing to that as efficient service. The
Burlington on that day alone handled
i!Td -ars. not far from half the total
delivery.
The Burlington ni now loading
alou: i'00 cars a day and the supp!y
of equipment is keeping up with the
lema:id. A heavy bulge in wheat and
corn prices might m ore- t ii.in double
this amount, but with a rather un
satisfactory market, the volume of
shipnu-nts Ls kept down. With a doub
ling of the amount shipped it might
be difficult to supply equipment as
readily as needed.
There has been u slight increase in
the volume of ctal shipments, -i 1 1 h

The regular quarterly conference

WILES FAMILY
HOLDS ANNUAL
REUNION MEET
GATHER AT THE CITY PARK AT
WEEPING WATER, LARGE
NUMBER PRESENT
From Friday's Iaily.
The annual reunion of the mem
bers of the Wiles family was staged
yesterday at the city park in Weep
iiu: Water and proved one of the
most pleasant -that the family has
h-ad in many years and also one of
the mo-t largely attended as there
was estimated to have been 275 mem
bers of the family at the park at the
dinner hour and during the program
h-ul
It required sixty-four cars, to
the members of the party in addi
tion to those who had come by train
to the scene of the picnic.
More auspicious weather conditions
could rot have been desired and it
made the occasic n one of the rarest
enjoyment as in the pleasant shade
the members recounted the history
of the family and reneweed the ac
quaintances of th rlativs who wre
living at distant points and who had
come back to the original family
.home for the reunion.
It hur been many years since the
tot-fathers of the Wiles family first
settled in Mills county, Iowai. and
Cass c unty. Nebraska, and in the in
tervening years the family has grown
both in numbers and influence in the
community until it is one of the lead
ing families of this portion of Ne
braska. For a number of years it has
been the custom of the family to
meet alternately in Iowa and Nebras
ka bu? ihis year the meeting decided
that as the park at Weeping Water
was so comfortable that they would
gather there next year.
The t Ulcers elected for the associ
ation were: Kay Wiles, Weeping Wa
ter, President; Thomas Wiles. Platts
mouth. treasurer; Mrs. J. K. Wiles.
Plattsmouth. secretary.
The members of the family partic
ipated in a great picnic dinner, the
ladies having brought with them a
great array of the good things to eat
and th-? camp fire served ice cream
to the jolly family party.
One cf Hie features of the day was
the 1 asehall game between the vari
ous members of the family and which
afforded great amusement for both
the players and the onlookers. A pro
gram af speeches t;nd songs also add
ed to the deversion of the occasion
md it was late in the afternoon
when the reunion was brought to a
close.
Those to attend from this city
were Thomas Wiles and wife. C. H.
Warner, wife and family. J. E. Wiles
and w ife. L. L. Wiles, wife and fam
ily. Dr. J. H. Hall and wife, and At
torney T. F. Wiles and family of Om
aha. CONSTRUCTS ARTIFICIAL LAKE.
Phillip Hild. who resides west of
Mynard. has inaugurated an artificial
lake cm his farm that promises to in
sure a supply of ice during the win
ter, together with fishing and bath
ing for Mr. Hild and his friends dur
ing the summer.
W. J. Partridge, the dynamite and
blasting expert, of Weeping Water,
was secured to look after the work,
and did a most excellent job. The
hollow shaped bowl, which is CZ feet
in length. :io feet in width and S
feet deep, was formed in an instant,
when the various charges of dyna
mite and blasting powder which had
been placed in the ground at close
intervals, were toucbeel off. Three
hundred pounds of dynamite and 25
kegs of blasting powder, costing up
wards of ?200. were "btrrieJ." each
charge being so arranged as to ex
plode simultaneously with the others.
When the blast was touched off, the
spectacular effect was one that many
a motion picture director would have
been glad of the opportunity of pho
tographing. The country was shaken
for miles around and a moment later
(lie excavation bore testimony to the
powerfulness of the explosives.
A small stream runs near the pro
posed lake, and with a hydraulic ram
and ordinary pipe line, water can be
constantly pumped into the lake with
very little expense. In order to se
cure a sufficient heati of water to
properly operate the ram a small
concrete dam will be placed in the
stream.
RETURNED FROM RANCH
L. F. Langhorst and daughter.
Ethel, and C. G. Bailey and daugh
ter, Hettie, returned Saturday even
ing from an auto trip to the Lang
horst ranch near Sugar City, Colo.
They report a great trip and a
splendid time. Mr. Langhorst brot
along samples of corn and wheat
raised on his land and it looks good.
It rained a good share of the time
while they were there, but this did
not prevent them from enjoying the
ranch life. They report that Wil
liam LangJiorst and Arthur Schneid
er are enjoying their work there and
are at it from morning to night.

r POLICE COURT CASE
DRAWS ATTENTION
! ealinS on Complaint Against John
Violation of
Tr:
arhc llales
Dismissed
From Friday's Dally.
This morning -the hearing of the
complaint filed ag.itt John Sattler
Jr.. for driving his car on the wrong
side of .the street, was staged before
Judge Archer and th:' case attracted
almost as much attention as the Still
man case in New York, judgingf rom
the spectators who were on hand.
The police officers who had made
the complaint lor the city were re
presented by City Am ; rnc-y C. A.
iiawls while C. E. M ir'in was the
representative of the defendant.
The affair crccurred on last Satur
day night near the Punnele theatre
and th? Wagner h tel when Officer
Chandler flopped Mr. Saltier, who
was driving his car on the left side
of the street, and notified him that
he would have to answer for the vio
lation of the law. and at the time
:he ca.-e attracted the attention of a
large number of the spectators who
were nearby when the arrest was
made and many stories were given
of the affair. .
At the trial th- defendant pre
sented .their side of the story i:i that
the crowded condi.ioa of the street
and the number of cars parked there
made it a matter of necessity to
drive on the wrong side of the street
and the defense also presented claims
of the language u.-ed oa the occas
ion by the police.
After hearing th-e.fiiatler fully the
court dismissed the action against
Mr. Sattler.
WELL KNOWN PHYSI
CIAN SERIOUSLY ILL
Dr. B. F. Brendel, of Murray. Con
fined to Home at Murray by a
Case of KicLnev Trouble
The many friends over Cass count y
will regret ver much to learn of the
serious condition of Ir. 15. F. IJrer.
del of Murray. one of the . oddest
doctors in the county.
The genial doctor has in the last
few weeks suffered a very severe at
tack of sickness v.hhh has resulted
in a severe affliction of the kidneys
that has made his condition quite
serious.
He has been kept confined to his
home the greater part of the time
during the last month and his fam
ily and friends are hopeful that in
the near future he may be able to
show decided signs of improvement
and to again resume his former ac
tivities. The doctor has left such
an active life for years that the con
finement has proven very trying to
him during the weeks that he has
compelled to remain at homo.
STREET BADLY WASHED.
The South Fifth street hill has un
doubtedly suffered the most erosion
of any of the curbed streets in the
city as a result of the recent rains.
For some time the roadway has been
below the curb and gutter lines, and
the inevitable result has been that
the water has taken its course down
the center of the streets, leaving the
curbing and guttering stranded high
and dry. Each succeeding rain fur
ther increases the depth of the water
ways, and now at the corner of
cars crossinc the intersection with
greater speed than that of a snal and
then with the risk of breaking a
spring. The most satisfactory and
least expensive course to follow in
the long run is paving, but under
inability to get that done at the
present time, the next best solution
lies in grading up the street until the
center of the roadway is as high or
higher than the curb line, and then
rounding it off, so the water will
naturally run in the gutter.
UNDERGOES OPERATION
From Friday's Dally.
Yesterday morning at the Fenger
hospital in Omaha, Miss Margaret
Buttery was operated on for append
icitis, from which she has been suf
fering for some time. The patient

RETURNS FROM COLORADO
From Friday's Gaily.
This morning James K. Pollock
returned home from an outing of two
months in the southwestern portion
of Colorao. near Pagosa Springs,
where he has a ranch located in the
heart of the unsettled portion of that
country. The outing was one that
thoroughly appealed to Mr. Pollock,
and he had his fill of hunting and
fishing as the mountain streams
abound in the finest kind of game
fish and the mountain country has
bear and deer in plenty for the
! nur-,te
Mr. Pollock was given a real rest
as aside from the occasional wander
er off the beaten path of travel,
there was no one to disturb his peace
and he was able to spend the time
as he wished. He returns greatly
refreshed and invigorated for the
work of the fall and winter and feel
ing that he had an outing that cer
tainly will be hard for anyone to
equal.

SHOP MEN HAVE AN
OTHER BALL GAME
This Time the Coach Shop are the
Opponents of the Boilermakers
Ard Win Exciting Game
From Friday's I-aily.
Ixist evening the followers of the
sport of baseball, who are employed
in the Purliugton shops, gathered at
the Eagles park to witness a combat
between the team of the boilerniak
ers and that of the coach shop. The
coach shop team has just be-en organ
ized and embraces a numier of the
well known players of the Eagles
and the late lied Sox. including Hill
Mason. William Patrick O'Doanell,
and Georgie Nelson, and proceeded
to start right after the foat ef their
opponents but found that the boiler
makers were not as easy as had been
imagined and it not been for the in
experience of the tankers on the bas
es they might have been playing yet.
However, the coach shop has the
palm as the final score was 7 to "
in their favor.
For the carpenters Bill Mason was
selected to do the heaving and
"Shorty" Burbridge donned the mask
and pad to stop what might come
his way while for the boilermakers
"Liz" Luschinsky was sent to the
mound and Tom liabb, the veteran
catcher, placed back of the home
plate to hold the drives of the
pitcher. The game wan close and the
coach workers received the surprise
of 4heir young lives in the manner
in which their opponents lobbed the
hall and chased around over the old
lot. "Liz" is reported to have scored
a greit deal of applause when he
was able to retire William Patrick
on the strike out route.
In addition to the former first
team players, the coach shop also
had Cecil O. York in the lineup,
which may lead to the game being
disputed by the boilermakers on ac
count of the professional record of
York, who was the mainstay of the
Watson, Mo.) team before coming
to this city.
Both tams are feeline: fine over
the game and willprobably have a
meet ins later on the diamond while
the blacksmith team also are looking
both of them over for a future date
on the lot.
