The burglars of this cily seem to
be growing very bold. Yesterday
afternoon in broad light of day
some one broke the corner of a
window light out, so that the 'catch'
could be.turned.in the WettcnKamp
basement, thus gaining an entrance
through the cellar way into the
room occupied by Hans Ooos &Max
Lem as a saloon. The thief secured
something over $S that had been
left in the money drawer with all
the drinkables hecould carry away
with him. The manner in which
the window was opened would go
to show, that the same thief or
thieves had beeu making numerous
burglaries recently a they all ap
pear to have entered in the
same way. J he thieves must be
residents of this city and the police
should at all times be on the look
out for them.

A new base ball nine was orga
nized a few days ago and came out
in good style Saturday with their
new suits on. The members of the
new nine contain some excellent
ball players. They will probably
be able to entertain and interest
any club in the county. The mem
bers are Frank Ballance (captain),
Hal Johnson, Will Coolidge, Bert
Holmes, Will Graves, Krskine
Brown, Glen Carruth, SJake Beeson
and Charley Hyatt. If the country
clubs want to play ball let them
send in a challenge and they will
be accommodated to their full sat
isfaction. Omaha Suckers.
Omaha must be a great town for
suckers, as over 5,000 of them were
harvested in that city yesterday af
ternoon. Two industrious in
dividuals giving their names
as Joe Dodd and C. F.M. Bush came
to Omaha from somewhere and ad
vertised the ascension of the cele
brated and much advertised Mt.
Carmel balloon or Hying ship
They agreed to leave terra firma
yesterday at 4 o'clock from the fair
ground and were to take an Omaha
couple up with them, who were to
be married in the clouds. Omaha
bit at the bait and swallowed it
whole. The admission charged
was only twenty-five cents, yet the
neat sum of a thousand dollars
must have been in the cash box,
when the two "aeronauts" took their
hasty departure for town. The
crowd waited patiently for a time
for the appearance of the two men
when it finally dawned on the as
semblage that they had been beau
tifully buncoed, and that, too, by a
trick which had been played in St.
Joe a few days before, and which
the papers in Omaha had made
great sport of. The boxes supposed
to contain the flying machine were
torn open by the angry crowd and
were found to contain sawdust and
nothing more. Officers went in
search of the parties, but no tidings
had been learned this morning of
the "practical jokers" that took so
much Omaha cash with them as
the price of the public for proving
themselves chumps. Politically
Omaha has always played a bunco
game on the balance of the state,
and the fact that she is once the
victim of her favoraite game will
cause a broad smile to be passed
around from the confines of the
Missouri river on the east to the
foot hills of Wyoming on the west.
The Omaha Bee in speaking of the
affair consolingly remarks that.
"It is said a sucker is born every
minute, and none of them ever die.
This savintr will hereafter be an
axiom in Omaha. The swindle so
cleverly and successfully worked
points one truth very ' plainly, "ad
vertising pa3's."
Board of Education Meeting.
At the meeting of the school
board the other evening Prof. Mc
Clelland was re-elected superintend
ent of the city schools and Professor
llalsey was retained as principal
another 3"ear. The voting of bonds for
the erection of new school buildings
was given up and a five-mill tax
was levied, which will pay for one
good building. Ten mills was
levied for general school purposes.
D. K. Barr was re-elected as janitor
for the ensuing year. He was also
appointed to take the annual school
census, after which the board ad

THEY ABE INVINCIBLE.
The Plattsmouth Club Plays the Crar.e
Company to Standstill.
Fully one thousand people saw
yesterday's game at the Chicago ave
nue grounds, and they saw a game
worth going miles to see. They saw
the Cranes start out with a great big
lead and saw Plattsmouth gradu-
llly crawl up and finally tie the
score in the ninth iimiiitr.
Omaha began the game by
scoring in the first inning and
shutting Plattsmouth out.
In the second the visitors rolled
up two more runs, and made
another in the third.
Plattsmouth also got one in the
third, and in the fourth they made
four more, while Omaha got three,
ind in the fifth and sixth both
sides blanked.
In theseventh Plattsmouth added
one more to her string, and Omaha
ran her 6core up to eight in the
eighth.
The ninth inning opened with the
score standing eight to six in favor
of the Cranes, and after Omaha had
blanked Plattsmouth got two runs
on a great home run hit by Adams,
with one man on bases.
Omaha insisted on having the
game called, so that they might
catch the train, and the game was
declared a tie.
The Omaha runs were nearly all
made on the errors of the Platts
mouth catcher, who could not hold
Perrine'a speedy delivery.
Aside from the playing of the
catcher, Plattsmouth played ball
out of sight.
They pounded the great and only
Williams with a wild and desperate
violence and earned their runs with
the greatest ease. They say that in
Omaha Williams is considered a
great, big, juicy pitcher. Be that as
it may he can't play ball with the
Plattsmouth club. Every man in
the team made a base hit off him
except Miller.
The great feature of the gamewas
the home run of Adams. When he
lifted the sphere out of the lot in
the ninth and brought in the tying
run the crowd went Wild with
delight. They divested themselves
of their nether garments and rose
up as one man and whooped! And
they whooped to be heard, too!
People living out in the benighted
region up in Omaha must have
heard that whoop and they knew it
was the crack of doom for
their club. If the game had
lasted another inning the Cranes
would have fallen in the "puree"
clear up to their necks. The great
and brilliant base running of Green
was another feature of the game.
He made a most noble attempt
to beat Jack Schulhog home
in the eighth inning. Shuloff
was on third base and his
royal job lots was on sec
ond; he devised the scheme to run
to third and then to home, thus
beating Schulhoff out. He tried it
but the umpire objected and the
Plattsmouth boys went out into the
field and meditated onthe uncertain
ties of life.
The Omaha club played ball right
up to the handle, but their pitcher
was pie for the locals and to him
can they lay the honor of a tied
score
Both Perrine and Patterson
pitched great ball for Plattsmouth
and deserve much praisefor their
work. This is the score:
