The high , school boys are putting
up an energetic kick over Ravenna
claiming the Central foot-ball cham
pion ship. They say that Broken
Bow has more games to its credit
and has done better work in every
way ; that when it came to a show
down , Ravenna's pedal extremities
were seiged with chill-blains and
it was impossible to get a game out
of them. The hoys are now clam
oring for justice and only want a
fair shake in order to demonstrate
that the championship is being bag
ged by the wrong party. Tt would
seem but fair that Ravenna should
give the boys the satisfaction they
are after.

In Lincoln and Omaha , where ho
was busy arranging matters in regard -
gard to the $1,000,000 bond it will
bo necessary for him to furnish. Up

fectly satisfactory manner.
"I believe In patronizing homo In
stitutions , " said Mr. George , "and
have accordingly , seleced one of the
two Institutions of the state capable
of handling that amount of money.
While away , I was continually be-
solged from all directions by an army
of applicants for numerous positions
but as 1 bound myself by no promise
unring the campaign , I feel that 1
am free to make my own appoint
ments. 1 have not ns yet decided
on my deputy out of the many appli
cants , and , although 1 hope to please
the people in my selection , I shall
please myself first ; because I want
some one whom 1 personally know
and like , so that we may work to
gether harmoniously.
"I want to say right here that I
am more than pleased with the elec

old soldier left in the state house

efficient officer. 1 am doing the

preparatory to taking over the office
at the beginning of the new year.
Of course 1 will receipt for and

A Pleasant Surpilso
The members of the Baptist
church happily surprised their pastor -
tor Rev. A. T. Norwood , Tuesday
night at the home of Mr. and Mrs.
Joe Pigman. Rev. Norwuod and
family were invited to the Pigman
home for supper and before they had
time to return to their home they
were greeted by a house full of pee
ple. The gathering was entirely in
formal and a most genial time was
had by both old and young.
A second surprise came to the
ladies when Mrs. Parmentor , in be
ing called out for a toast presented
the Society-with a substantial con
tribution from the Ladies Aid So
ciety of her old home church in
Ohio to be added to the now church
fund.
During the absence of the family
the parsonage was .entered and when
the Norwoods returned found an
other surprise of material things
that will keep the wolf from their
door for some time at least.

Ladles Guild Supper. ,
The Episcopal supper given b&tho
Ladies Guild at the residence * of
Mrs. Alpha Morgan last week , was
largely attended , there being about
fifty guests who sat down to the
table , not counting the members of
tl'c guild. The supper was parti
cularly good and the way in which
the male contingent settled down to
business and did justice to the many
dainties , was a caution. Biscuits
were constructed while you walled
and served piping hot with whole
some , fresh butter. The other good
les were too numerous to count , but' '
they all took the same route as the
biscuits without any favorites being
played. Many thanks are due Mrs.
Morgan for the loan of her beauti
ful home for the occasion. -

J. G. Lcmlng , who returned to
Hrokon Bow last Friday , had quite
an exporlctnco in the First Nation
al Bank of Dcadwood , the day bo-
tore , when an ox-soldier from Fort
Nlobrara , tried to hold up that In
stitution at the point of a gun. AH
Mr. Lomlng helped capture the man
his part In the affair was more or
loss thrilling. . ,
He said he was standing at a
desk In the bank , when a man approached
preached the cashier's window and
after making some casual remark ,
dropped a gun on the level with the
cashier's head and ordered him to
pass out the cash. The cashier
dodged and the revolver was dis
charged , the ball tearing a hole in
the wood work. Then a strange
thing happened. After ho had pull
ed the trigger , the ex-soldier ap-
pearantly lost hla norvo.for drop
ping the weapon on the shelving ot
the window , ho hastily made for the
door.
Hero Is where the resident from
Broken Bow took a hand in the
game. Grappling with the man , bo
helped hold him until other assis
tance arrived. The sheriff was then
called and the culprit turned over
to him. At first ho refused to talk
but later It was discovered ho was
an ex-soldler named Dear. Mr. Lcm
Ing thinks the man used poor judg
ment , as It was a time of day when
the streets were filled with people
and escape seemed almost Impossible
Several of the bank's officials wore
also present at the time of the at
tempted hold-up.
