From Tuesday's Dally Now this is a real lion story and not a lying story as might be sur mised and good men and true of the vicinity of Nehawka and Union are vouching for the fact that a real honest-to-gfoodness lioness was seen Monday afternoon near the Charles Hoback farm, northeast of Nehawka and northwest of Union. According to the story that has come from that locality, the lioness was glimpsed about 2 o'clock yester day afternoon while a number of the men were engaged in butchering on the Hoback place and ltuel Taylor, well known resident of near Union, is the man claimed to have seen the animal at her antics in an oat stub ble field on the farm. The lioness, so the story goes, had suddenly emerged from a straw stack where she had been apparently en joying a snooze and from the Indica tions the lioness must have made a sudden leap after a rabbit as she was springing when the first glimpse of her was seen. The news of the discovery of the animal spread very rapidly and a delegation from Nehawka was dis patched on the scene and the excite ment that reigned was the greatest that has occurred there since the ill fated expedition that once set forth from Plattsmouth under the leader ship of Col. Fred Kroehler to capture the now almost forgotten cannon. There was no trace of the lioness to be found on the arrival of the party and it had evidently made an escape into a bunch of timber not far from the scene of action where it had first been glimpsed. Those who were at the Hoback farm state that the animal was mi nus the mane that usually decorates the king of beasts and on this is the supposition based that the animal was the female of the species. This is the first time that a real good description of the animal has been received although it has been reported at various times over the western and northern portion of Otoe county and southern Cass county and the residents there will go heavily armed in the future in fear of a visit from the unwelcome visitor. Mrs. Julius Nielson was a passen ger this morning for Omaha to spend a few hours in that city looking after some matters of business. Frank Barkus and little daughter, Catherine, were among the visitors in Omaha today where they snent" a short time with Mrs. Barkus mother in that city.

GUN ELEVATION FIGHT PRESSED Washington, Jan. 20. President Coolidge would be asked to inform the senate what steps have been taken with respect to foreign rep resentations against elevation of guns on United States battleships un der a resolution introduced today by Senator McKellar, democrat, Ten nessee. Pointing out that Chairman Hale of the naval affairs committee had declared such a protest had been made by a foreign nation, Senator McKellar asked in the resolution that the president make it clear also at what time a decision by the American government in the matter might be expected. He also would inquire whether any steps have been taken to submit the proposition to arbi tration. The senate yesterday, by a vote of 45 to 22, refused to consider the question of elevation of guns on American battleships in connection with an amendment proposed by Sen ator McKellar to the naval appro priation bill.
