TRAVELERS HAVE
HAD A STRENUOUS
TIME ON JOURNEY
Aged Woman and Son Who Stopped
Here on Southern Journey Tell
Story of Experiences.
From Thursday's Daily.
The party of the aged woman and
a man whom she claimed as her son,
which visited here yesterday, enroute
in a covered wagon for the sout,h,
have had some experiences in their
overland travels in the last few
years.
The lady gave her name as Mrs.
O'Connor and seemed much attach
ed to the son, who is hiciselT a man
apparently over fifty years of age,
and to the authorities the two re
lated some of their experiences
among which was the visit they made
to this locality in the latter part of
1916 and with their remarks the in
cidents were recalled by Sheriff Quin
ton. When they came through Cass
county in 1916 they had the same
old covered wagon but instead of a
team of horses had one horse and an
ox hitched to the wagon and which!.,
of course attracted a great deal of
attention. At that time the woman
was strong and active and rode in
the rear of the wagon armed with a
shotgun while the son drove the
strange appearing team. Near the W.
A. Becker home passersby stopped to
look over the outfit and thereby drew
the wrath of the old lady and she
unlimbered the old gun and got into
action with a threat to shoot, which
drove away the would be visitors.
Later on their journey the party had
more trouble by being annoyed when
they were driving into Lincoln and
thereby gained more or less notoriety
over the state. The aged woman
made a visit to the statehouse and
laid the matter of the annoyance be
fore Hon. John H. Morehead, then
governor of the state, and not get
ting any satisfaction she wrote to
Washington to Presidejtf Wilson rel
ative to the incidents.
To the sheriff the sen stated that
they came from Oklahoma and have
spent a number of years traveling
around in this manner with the old
covered wagon and felt that it was
truly travel de luxe. He also stated
that while they were in North Da
kota they had their fantastic vehicle
run into by the high powered car of
a man who the son claimed was a
bootlegger and that as the result the
car was overturned and in the wreck
the mother received injuries that re
sulted in her being paralyzed ar.d
unable to get around. Sheriff Quin
ton suggested that it might be pos
sible to secure them transportation
by train to their destination in Ar
kansas but to this both mother and
son strongly demurrei and tne Kind
hearted sheriff then set out to devise

NIGHT OF TRIUMPH
FOR HIGH SCHOOL

Game, Trimming Papillion 26

From Thursday's Daily
Last night was one of triumph for,'- Smith ,he laWl'ie while the
the basket ball aggregation of the' consolation prizes were secured by

the squad regulars and subs alike,
liri a n:irt iii the festivities that
marked the defeat of the Papillion
high school team and the Morgan's
of this city, an organization of form
er basket ball stars, but whose bril
liancy was somewhat eclipsed by the
work of the youthful high school
team.
In the opening game, staged with
Papillion, all of the local players
were given a shot at the visitors and
it was clear that the Sarpy county
boys were decidedly outclassed by
even the second trick Plattsmouth
men. Outside of the regulars on the
team, Kebal, Koubek and Wasley
showed strong in the game. Chase.
Mullis and Krejci of the first team
also played a very effective game
throughout the time they were in.
At the close of the first half the
score stood 14 to 5 and in the suc
ceeding half the locals added twelve
more making them, a total of 26,
while the visitors were unable to
add to their score.
The second game was one tilled
with a great deal of interest to the
audience and more real feeling was
shown than in the opener. The Mor
gan team had the advantage in
weight and in long years of experi
ence on the basket ball field, as all
of the players have records of past
achievements when they too were
members of the P. II. S. lineup. On
the other hand the high school team
showed their youth and practice in
the whirlwind game they played
throughout the contest.
In the opening of the first half,
John Sattler, Ernest Schubeck, Carl
Schneider, Bob Burkle and Hilt Mar
tin faced ',he high school machine,
composed of Harold Mullis, Stuart
Chase, Joe Krejci, Charles Egenberg
er and Frank Gradoville and in the
first round of the struggle the high
school held the lead by the score of
16 to 10. The Morgan team suffer
ed from several personal fouls called
on them due to the excessively rough
style of play used. '
The second half saw the substitu
tion of Gus Brubacker, Joe McCarty
and Lawrence Spreacher for Schu
beck, Schneider and Martin, although
Schneider later returned to the game.
The addition of Brubacker was es
pecially strengthening to the sweet
shop players and his work held down
the high school team from their scor
ing to a great extent. ,
The second half was fought to a
finish and the high school team used
Fred Renal for a portion of the game
instead of Egenberger, until the

CASEIS CONTINUED
From Friday's , Dally.
This morning the case of the State
of Nebraska vs. H. H. Cotton was
to have been brought to trial on the
preliminary hearing, but on motion
of the state, through County Attor
ney Ae. G.. Cole, the case was con
tinued for a period of thirty days.
The continuance was made neces
sary by the fact that Thomas Rabb,
whom Mr. Cotton is charged with
having shot, is still at the hospital
in Omaha, and unable to appear in
court at this time.
Fred L. Rice, well known attorney
of Omaha, was here to represent Mr.
Cotton, but as the case was con
tinued, he returned at once to the
metropolis.
DEATH ENDS TRIP
PLANNED TO COAST
Mrs. John C. Lindeman of this City
Passes Away in Denver While
on Wav to Pacific Coast.
On Wednesday afternoon Mr. and
Mrs. John C. Lindeman departed
from this city to enjoy the first real
vacation of their lives on a trip of
several months' duration to the Pa
cific coast and yesterday morning
when the train arrived at Denver
Mrs. Lindeman was taken to the
home of her daughter in a dying con
dition, passing away a few hours
later.
While no definite information was
sent by the relatives to the members
of the family here it is thought that
death was caused from heart trouble
aggravated by the .hgih altitude of
the Colorado city.
The news came as a great shock
to the son. Fred Lindeman, of this
city, as well as the many old time
friends of the family and it was al
most beyond belief as Mrs. Lindeman
has been in the best of spirits and
health apparently when they had de
parted for the west.
It had been the intention of Mr.
and Mrs. Lindeman to spend Christ
mas in Denver and then continue
their journey on to Long Beach, Cali
forn'a. where they were to spend the
winter months visiting, but their
plans were rudely broken when the
death messenger summoned the wife
