There was no insurance on the con tents of the building which had just recently been installed while on the building there was only $2,000 in surance which will not in any way cover the loss to the memb?rs of the church in their fine building.

NEHAWKA LOSES ' ONE-SIDED CON TEST YESTERDAY Plattsmonth Ball Tossers Win by the Score cf 20 to 2 in Slugfest for Locals Yesterday. From Monday's Imily Yesterday afternoon the baseball team of Nehawka came up to visit with the local folks and dropped a rather slow game by the st ore of 20 to 2, the visitors being outplayed in all departments of the game by the Plattsonians who at no time were in any danger of having the contest slip from their grasp. Carper who was the slab artist for the visitors for the first five innings, was nicked for ten hits, while he whiffed five of the Piattsmouth bat ters. McConnell, who was sent in to relieve Carper, was touched up for four hits, tTTree two baggers and one triple, that added to ti e scoring of the locals and coupled with errors helped pile up the scores. The visitors were opposed for the first five innings by Herb Swanson on the mound, who allowed but one hit, two errors coupled with the lonely bingle in the fifth accounting for the visiters' ruur. Joe McCarty pitched the last three ii:nings and was not scored upon, a lk-wing three straight hit3, but the Lrys frj:a the oil town were not able to register at the plate. Grady for the Piattsmouth team was first up nd hit rufcly over third, scoring the first run o; the game when he scored on the out of Mc Carty at first. The fifth was the big inii:.g of the rkut.-'mouth team, as they an noxed fccvc-u runs in thut stanza that swelled defeat for their opponents. In this inning Johnson opened for Piattsmouth and secured a safety e n the en or o Hodge i-t third base, Swansea beat out a grcur.dir to the pitcher, and both scored w hen Grcd oville rapped his th-'ru hit of the game, a three bagger, t .i loft field. O Donnell was safe aj.-,lirst on an attempt to retire Grtdoville. New man hit to right and Grady scored, McCarty was walked, Mason and Ilerold were retired but allowed O'Donnell to score. Hathaway was walked while the fly of Johnson, batting for the second time in this inning, registered his teammates. Swanson closed the inning with a strikeout. The rixtii inning was featured by two baggers by Ilerold, Hathaway and Johnson and the general de moralization of the visitors. Peter Ilerold secure! the longest hit of the game, a three sacker in the eighth. Nehawka secured thfir tallies in the fifth inning thai, n saved them from a t-hut out. Carper v.a whiffed when two hard chances at third by Grady resulted in Stone and Swingla being snfe at first. Duckworth, cen ter fielder of the visitors, secured the lonely hit off of Swanson for two sacks that scored the two runners. Kimblin was struck out for the last out. The umpiring of William Kruger of Nehawka was a feature of the game, as he was uniformly fair and with Charley Tr.rnlmigh made ev ery effort to see that both teams had a square deal. The box score of the game was as follows: Plattsmonth AB-'H PO A E Gia-ly, 3b 5 3 10 2 O'Donnell, lb 4 0 9 0 0 Newman, ss 5 3 1 4 0 McCarty. cf, p 5 1 0 1 0 Mason, rf 5 110 0 Herold. lb fi 2 2 2 0 Hathaway, c 4 1 10 0 0 Johnson, If 5 3 0 0 0 Swanson, p 2 10 3 0 Meade, cf 1 C 0 0 0 43 14 24 10 Nehawka All II PO A Kimblin. ss 4 0 o 1 McCourell. rf, p 1 1 0 0 Johnson, H., 2b 3 . 1 -4 3 Johnson, A., lb 4 17 0 Carper, p, cf 4 1 0 t Stone, c 4 0 10 0 Swingle, If 3 0 0 0 Hodge, 3b 3 0 0 1 Duckworth, cf 3 2 0 0 34 6 21 9 Dyspepsia is America's curse.
