Last evening Officer Jackson was
summoned to the vicinity of Sixth

time and his strange action drew the
attention of the residents there to
him and the result was tnat tne
police was summoned to the scene
of action. When Officer Jackson
reached the scene the stranger was
laboring under the delusion that he
was either in Falls City or Missouri
Valley, he was not quite sure whic h
and from his conversation was not i
exactly sure of being anywhere. The
man was taken to the city jail by
Mr. Jackson and lodged there for
the night and this morning sent on
his way to see the city of his choice.
It was later reported to the police
that the man had been at one of the
local drug stores seeking to pur
chase drugs but had failed.

SOLDIER SEEKS TO
GO OVER THE HILL
WEDNESDAY NITE
Police and Deputy SheriS Detain
Young Man Here at Request of
Officers at Rifle Range.
officers spent some time around the
Burlington yards looking for the
youthful soldier and finally rounded
him up and held him until the offic
ers could come from the range camp
ana secure him. The young man
gave the name of Koelinke and his
age as nineteen years. When he was
caught he was without a hat or cap
having lost these apparently in the
getaway. It had evidently been his
intention to ride No. 1-1 on the
Burlington out of the city but the
fact that Mr. Young and Officer
Jackson had closely watched the
train prevented this and he had then
been unearthed in the yards. The
young soldier was not very strong
for getting away, however, or he
could have escaped in the darkness
of tfee railroad yards long before he
vas searched out.
The officers at the camp with an
escort came down and took the
young man back to camp to be
taken care of as prescribed by the
military regulations.

the coast for a great many years but
still retain a keen interest in the old

voted to make the occasion an
annual event and set the first Sun
day in October as the date and will
enlarge the scope of the picnic so
as to make it a Cass county affair
and include all of the former resi
dents of this county now in Californ
ia and which will almost double the
number attending the picnic.

: From Thursday's Dallv
! Yesterday afternoon shortly be
fore 5 o'clock. Chief of Police Wil
liam Heinrichsen and Constable Tom
Svoboda received a telephone call
from tlic Platte river auto and wag
on bridge announcing that two
young boys were out there with a
horse that they had apparently stol
en and were seeking to take the ani
mal over the bridge but had not the
price of a trip over the river.
The officers arrived at the scrne of
action and found that the boys who
were in possession of the animal had
apparently turned it loose near the
Nord place and were out of sight
themselves.
The horse was described as the
proverbial old gray mare and the
boys had been very nervous when
they were at the bridge, it was re
ported and had apparently gotten
cold feet on the proposition and
turned Mr. Hore loose.
About the time that the officers
arrived the John Rutherford family
discovered that their old gray horse
was missing and which was later
found near the Nord place where the
boys had abondoned her.
A further search of the Platte
bottom disclosed the fact that the
two boys had been seen near Oreapo
lis and here the officers found them
r.bout 6 o'clock and placed them un
der arrest. One of the boy? was a
colored lad, aged 16 years, who stat
ed that he was from nowhere and
headed the same place, having no
home and was just wandering
around. His companion was a white
lad of 17 years who was apparently
suffering from sickness of some form
as he was in a weakened condition.
The two boys stated that they had
not had a meal for some time and
rather welcomed the chance to get
fed and especially when they had a
whiff of thf cooking at the Hotel
Young, presided over by Deputy
Sheriff Young ard where they were
taken by the officers and lodged in
the jail.
The boys are still in jail waiting
the return of County Attorney J. A.
Capv.-ell from Lincoln when they
will be given the once over and their
case disposed of.

HAS VERY BUSY
SESSION TODAY
Raymond Lairson and Matthew Mar
vin Both race the Machinery
cf Justice This Morning
Prom Fri1a-" I.-!iv
This morning Judge James T. Beg
3ey held a short session of the dis
trict court and two law violators
were present to make their pleas of
guilty and to receive sentences for
their offenses.
Raymond Lairson, of Fremont,
who had been charged with uninten
tional manslaughter in causing the
death of Mrs. Lorissa Dodge while he
was operating a car while in the
state of intoxication, was the first to
come before the court and entered
his plea of guilty to the charge as
preferred by County Attorney J. A.
Capwtll. On hearing the plea of
guilty, the court assessed on Mr.
Lairson a tine of $500 and costs as
provided by law. This form of man
slaughter comes under a special sec
tion aside from that of manslaughter
committed in the heat of passion and
accordingly the punishment is less
severe.
The second man to be brought be
fore the court was Matthew Marvin,
who was charged with breaking and
entering the barn of Ray Becker
near Union and stealing therefrom
a set of harness. Marvin entered r.
plea of guilty to the charge made

pay a fine of $500 and costs. In
failure to pay the fine Mr. Marvin
will continue to repose in jail here.

stealing in Douglas county, being in
possession of the stolen team for

was captured near Eagle several

PARTY AT LOUIS
VILLE LAST NIGHT
ENDS IN ARRESTS
Sheriff Stewart and Deputy Sheriff
Young Bring in Participants
to Face the Law.
From Saturday's Dtiily
Last evening, Sheriff E. P. Stew
art appeared in the role of the guy
that spoils the party, when he visit
ed Louisville and invaded a very
convivial gathering that was being
i staged there, and as the result this
morning there were two ladles from
the great city of Omaha and a young
man of Louisville here to face the
law as represented by Justice Wil
liam Weber.
The sheriff was notified that the
party was on in full blast and ag
gravating very much the dwellers of
the city of Louisville who were not
participants in the fun and frolic,
and accordingly, accompanied by
Deputy Sheriff Young. Mr. Stewart
visited the scene of activity.
When the officers arrived at the
residence where the party was go
ing on they found that the fun was
at its height, and the sheriff, rap
ping on the door, requested admis
sion and stated his name and the
fact that he was an officer of the
law. The occupants of the house
were not desirous of letting the of
ficers in and stalled for time. Mean
time, Deputy Sheriff Young had
glimpsed through a window the fact
that sundry and divers containers of
liquor were being emptied and ac
cordingly the door to the house was
broken open and the parties placed
under arrest.
The man taken in custody gave
the name of R. D. Brown, while the
ladies acknowledged the names of
Margaret Smith and Mary Brown,
and both claimed Omaha as their
residence. When arrested the ladies
were in high spirits, having partak
en freely of the juice of the corn and
were filled with pep and ginger and
on the way in enjoyed the trip very
much.
This morning in the cold, gray
dawn xf the "morning after the
night before," the world was not
near as bright and they complained
very much of the hard time that
they had and their lacerated feel
ings. When Justice Weber, in his
full, rich tones, had atoned the
amount of the fines and costs, one
of the ladies remarked that the city
must be preparing to put another
brick in the paving and desired them
to pay for it. However, Mary has
done the city a great injustice, as
the fines and costs go to Cass coun
ty and not the city.
The court assessed a fine of $100
and costs on Mr. Brown for posses
sion of liquor, and Miss Brown and
Miss Smith $10 each for being
drunk. This was paid and the party
departed hence, feeling that the out
ing had been a very costly one for
all concerned.
As one of the ladies remarked,
they would not have treated anyone
that way in Omaha for a little
"stew" party.
