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.
As is usual after th-e New Year
there was a more or le39 dropping
off of the smoVers amoiig the male
portion of the city iut-4-h tobacco
dealers are preparing for the grand
rush next season. In ma?'-tMa the
members of the family signed the
urual pledge to keep their temper
around thu house and b? more gen
erous in dealing with the shortcom
ings of their issociates.
Since the- demise of the well known
phraser. "Here's to you." "Nazdar,"
"Gut Kail" and other kindred ex
pressions, there was little need of
the fonder "never again" resolu
tions in regard to man's old enemy.

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.

OAR ROBBER IS
SHOT IN HEAD
John E. Eearns Arrested Here Last
Summer, is Shot While At
tempting to Enter Car.
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.

System cf Display Cases In
stalled in his Store.
The clothing store of Philip Thier
olf is presenting a very neat appear
ance and the equal of any city estab
lishment of this kind as the result of
the installing by Mr. Thtirolf of a
series of unit cases for the di-p-iy
of the different articles of the cloth
ing line.
These cases are provided with
glass fronts and the custumr can
view the articles without the neces
sity of draging down a large array
of boxes by the clerk for the bene
fit of the customers. The larger units
rare for the shirt and underwear
line and the smaller ones the hose
and collar stocks. Mr. Thierolf has
already had his Ruits, overcoats and
hats in dust-proof cases and the lat
est addition makes the array very
complete in every way.
