arrested Tuesday afternoon on the
charge of gambling and taken before
Judge Gatz, in police court, and fined
$10 and costs, Crawford pleading
guilty to the charge against himt.
Crawford is the man who created
considerable stir here about a year ago
claiming to have been robbed of a con
siderable sum of money in a hotel
here and afterwards refusing to
testify against the men who were
held for the offense. From recent in
dications it appears that the money
at that time was lost in a poker game.
Several local men are said to have
been engaged in “guessing” contests
during the past few months and the
authorities claim that they are going
to try and put an end to this form of
amusement.
S. W. Kelly of Wisner, Neb., was

newspaper business for a time at
least. Mr. Kelly is an able news
paper man and for sixteen years
edited and published the Wisner
Free Press, which he sold a few weeks
ago. He posesses ability as a writer
and is a number one printer and can
be depended upon to give Atkinson a
splendid up-to-date paper. Mr. York
has made a good paper of the Graphic
and he has been accorded a splendid
patronage by the hustling business
men of our sister city, and The
Frontier predicts, now that he has
become innoculated with printers ink,
that he will be back in the business
again before long.
Vernon Johnson, in a suit filed in
the district court, asks the Bur
lington railroad company to pay him
$25,000.00 for injuries alleged to have
been received while in the employ of
the company on the bridge built by thq
Burlington across the Platte river
near Ashland, in February, 1914. In
his petition he alleges that he was
what is known as “herder” for the
engines being used in the construction
of the bridge. That while performing
his duties the water gage on the en
gine exploded and the glass therefrom
struck him in the eye, cutting the eye
ball and practically destroying the
sight thereof. That his eye is in such
condition that he will have no valuable
use thereof. That prior to his in
jury he was earning $3.00 per day,
but by reason of said injury he will
never be able to follow such an
occupation again, nor will be able to
work about any steam boiler or ap
pliances, and can never be a mechanic
of any kind, and as a result thereof
his earning capacity has been greatly
lessoned. That said injury was caused
without any negligence on his part.
For the injuries above received he
asks judgment for $25,000.00 and
costs of suit.
Merton D. Smith has filed suit in
the district court to collect $25,000.00
from the Chicago and Northwestern
railroad company for injuries alleged
to have been received through the
negligence of said company at Har
rison, Neb., on April 2, 1910. In his
petition he alleges that on above date
he was employed by the Western
Union Telegraph company at Har
rison. That the office of the Telegraph
company was in the defendant com
pany’s station. That the platform
around said station was old, delapi
dated and in a very dangerous
condition. That on above night when
he returned to the station, after
transacting some business for the
telegraph company up town, one of
the planks in the platform broke and
his foot catching on another plank he
was thrown and severely injured and
had to go on crutches until July.
That by reason of said injuries he
was unable to do any work until Au
gust, and then only light work, and his
earning capacity has been reduced
$25 per month by reason of said in
juries and that he has lost in wages
alone, up to this time, $1,100. That
his left knee and leg, which were in
jured, have become worse and that he
has been compelled to give up the em
ployment of railroading and telegraph
operating and can no longer perform
such duties, and is unable to perform
any labor except light clerical work
and that he will always be sick and
lame. For these reasons he thinks he
is entitled to damages in the above
amount with costs of suit.

Bertha M. Clay.
Walt Mason: Poor Bertha’s gone
to glory, she died a month ago; no
more she’ll write the story of heart
ache, love and woe, the story sweet
and tender, of maids and weddings,
for now, in realms of splendor she’s
trying out her wings. I thought she
was a maiden with old style cork
screw curies, with beads and earrings
laden, like other ancient girls; but
now the truth is printed since Bertha
home was called; her nose was crim
son tinted, and she was slightly bald!
Upon her face and body high life had
left its scars; but Bertha liked her
toddy* and Bertha smoked cigars!
On earth no human gazed behind her
in a gown, she used a safety razor to
keep her whiskers down. With other
mild carousers she liked a quiet game,
and Bertha’s chums wore trousers,
and Bertha did the same. This
novelist of promise pursued deceitful
plan; her given name was Thomas,—
and Bertha was a man! With this
fact as a starter we will not show
surprise on learning that Nick Carter
is grandma in disguise!
The Proper Spirit.
Fremont Tribune: Last week the
O’Neill Frontier issued a special
edition edited by the pastor and ladies
of the Methodist church. This inci
dent proves the liberal spirit of the
citizenship of O’Neill. The editor of
The Frontier is Dennis Cronin and on
the first page of the edition is a large
picture of St. Mary’s Academy, a
flourishing institution of the town.
On another page are pictures of Co
lumbus hall and St. Patrick’s church.
Evidently the Methodists of O’Neill
are not greatly alarmed over the
proclamation that America is about
to suffer conquest by the Pope.
Creighton Liberal: The Tribune
editors are not the only ones who
noticed this splendid American spirit
on the part of the Methodist ladies
of O’Neill. While on the subject the
Tribune however could have gone
further and showed that notwith
standing the fact that O’Neill has the
largest Catholic Academy in Nebraska
and the further fact that the major
ity of the taxpayers in the school dis
trict are Catholics; that the finest pub
lic school in the state, for a city of her
size, has just been erected across the
street from the Academy. Our
sister city on the west seems to have
more time for improving their town
and less for worrying about the future
salvation of their neighbors. While
others are quarreling about which
road to travel O’Neill has secured a
hotel equal in elegance and equipment
to anything in Omaha or Lincoln
and her bank deposits have become
the envy and astonishment of her
neighbors.
