NO. 50 NEW YEAR IS VERY OOIET INTHIS CITY NO EXCITEMENT HARES DAWN ING OF THE NEW YEAH AND PEACE PREVAILS. The passing of the- tld year and the advent of the new in this city proved very quiet affairs and little of note marked the occasion that in years past was marked by great fes tivity and convivial gatherings. In the point of moisture the pass ing of the old year was decidedly arid in comparison of the past when the flowing bowl worked overtime flowing for the makers of the New Tear resolutions. The homes of the city were In manj- cases the scenes of gatherings of relatives and friends to watch the coming of 1922 and to hail the dawn ing of what is hoped to be a most successful year for our country and community. Songs, cheers and re joicing held sway as the tolling of the clock marked the midnight hour and after the outburst of enthusi astic welcome the merrymakers de parted to their homes. This was in marked contrast with the observances held in Omaha and tip larger places where theatres held late performances, the churches spe cial watch party services and the cafes and restaurants remained open until the break of day of the year in fun and frolic. Quite a number from this city were in Omaha to rpend the New Year festivities with friends ind to add their part to the general ce'.ehnticn. From the thou sands who thronged the Efeets of the metropolis after ..he midnight hour the old year had left more or less mo'sture in its trail and which had added to the exuberance of the noisy and frolicksome merrymakers.

FEAST DOES NOT MATERIALIZE For sometime" the members of the Cosmopolitan club have been expect ing to hold a great rabbit hunt and feast following the return of the rame lrjden hunters. Accordingly at in e-a-ly hour Sunday morning the hunting portion of the organisation omposed of Emil Koukal. W. R. Holly, Douglas McCrary, Ray Her ring and Leonard Hawkenbery, has tened out and combed the wood and plain of this section of Cass county for the victims and while a large number cf rabbits were scared up the hunters were able to secure only two and how these two unfortunate bunnies ran into the zone of fire was doubtless due to their confusion as it is stated that when the rabbits still they were perfectly safe. The hunt ers caused the residents of the coun tryside to keep their children close to the house while the barrage was -eing laid down for the rabbits. On the return of the hunters the mem bers of the party well-versed in the art of the bull throwing, handed out the statement that there would be a 'east of fourteen rabbits served last evening and the members of the or ganization, not acquainted with the utters could almost believe the statement. However, in the show down there was no feast held last evening at least not of rabbits. We appreciate your co-operation in helping us to publish all the live news cf the oommuaily.

That the wage of sin is death waa strikingly borne out in the case of John E. Kearns of Council BluHs, Iowa, who was shot there Saturday night by officers and lies in the Jen nie Edminston hospital at the point of death. Kearns was shot by two ofTicers when he broke the seal on a carload of tobacco on the Milwaukee rail road, at Weston, east of Council Bluffs, on Saturday night. The car was consigned to Chicago and the officers were placed tm the train as guards at Omaha and as the result the would-be robber was detected in his work. When the officers opened fire, an ' auto nearby in which Kearns had doubtless made his trip from Council Bluffs and which was occupied by a number cf other men, sped away leaving the wounded man in the hands of the officers. The wounded robber was brought on into Council Bluffs in a police car and placed in the hospital. . When arrested Kearns had a're volver, rabbin's foot and flashlight on his person. " It wiil be remembered that Kearns in company with a man named Green was arrested in this city lact Bum mer and in their possession was found a number of burglar tools and safe blowing appliances and for which the men were arrested and complaint filed against them by County Attorney A. G. Cole. They v.cre fined $200 and costs and 'Xearns paid his fine and was re leased while Green remained in Jail for some time to serve out the sen tence. The experience here was evi dently enough for Kearns and he is to pay the extra panalty for his crime. TERMS OF COURT District Judge James T.
