Youthful Runaways.
It is said 'hat this is a progressive
age and that the younger people are
ahead in the ways of the world of
those who were double their age in
times gone by. A circus, as a general
rule, is a boy's ideal of what a good
time should bo and if they can only
join one then the heighth of their
ambition has been attained.
Yesterday afternoon after school
four boys, none of them eight years of
age and two but six years of age, all
of whom attend the Sixth street school
concluded that they would start out
in lif j for themselves, and after see
ing a little of the world they pro
posed joining the first circus they
met. They wero the sons of James
Riley ,XR. E. Hawley, Mr. Quinn and
Frank Golden.
The little fellows secured 'a water
melloh and some meat and going down
in the vicinity of the B. & M. round
house they settled down to real tramp's
lire. After their feast they sought a
box car, but that did not move eoon
enough so after dark they went up to
tho B. & M. depot, where they settled
down to wait for an outgoing train
and when found late at night they
were sound asleep. It is safe to Bay
that their traveling desires will be
taken' up with other thoughts for a
few days at least and their tour of the
world has been indefinitely post
poned. Nebraska City News.

Suit For Louisville.
The village authorities at Louis
ville are not having clear sailing in
the collection of their business on oc
cupation tax. It seems that a promi
nent merchant of the town relused to
pay the tax and the city dads ordered
a levy made to satisfy the claim. J.
L. Hartshorn was marshal and W. C.
Dorsey, clerk. Some nails were
levied on and sold, and now Mr.
Rochford, the merchant, sues those
two officials for $12.00 damages for
wrongful conversion of property. The
case was caiiea in juage Arcner s
court for trial this afternoon.
Quite a number of prominent resi
dents were down as witnesses, among
whom we noticed Miles Drako.presi-
dent of the town board; II. E. Pan-
konin, Frank Dickson. L. J. Mayfield
and Frank Fetzer, members of the
board; E. C. Twiss, S. V. Davis, J. I.

Joseph M. Lilly, a wealthy farmer
who lived near Cbillcothe, Mo., died
recently, aged 64 years. In 18G8 Mr.
Lilly told his friends that he had
heart disease, and. took to his bed and
lay prone there for 21 years, telline
his physicians and friends that if he
raised his head or chebt above a slight
angle he would instantly expire.
Nothing could expel this idea from
bis mind. 111s general neaitn was
good, but it was not until lute in 1889
that he could be induced to get up.
He was a shrewd business man and
grew rich, even while lying in bed.
Up to the day of his death Lilly had
fairly good health. Chicago Post.

Rumored Sale of Greenland.
London, Sept. 27. There is a
rnmor in Canadian circles that the
government of the United States has
made overtures to the government of
Denmark with the object of acquiring
Greenland from the latter country.
The Evening News gives prominence
to the rumor and says: - "Under ordi
nary circumstances, even if true, the
report would excite little interest, but
coupled with the news of the hoisting
of the anion jack over Baffin's land,
it becemes of great moment. It ap
pears that Baffin's land was never for
mally acquired by the English for
half a century, Hudson's strait is
destined to become part.In the 'uture.
of a great grain-carrying route be
tween Liverpool and Winnipeg which
will be a powerful rival of the Ameri
can land routes. The Americans have
no port of footing on the eastern
shores of thecontinent north of Maine,
and if they are to participate in the
ad vantages of the Hudson bay route
it has been apparently urged that
their government secure some land or
peninsola without delay."
The Evening News adds to this
comment an interview wilb unnamed
Canadian officials, to the effect that
the hoisting of the union jack over
Baffin's land was undoubtedly evoked
by the report that the United States
government had its eye upon that ter
ritory. According to the official
quoted, there is nothing to prevent
the Uniied States purohasing Green
land from Denmark. In conclusion
the Evening News remarks: 'If the
Americans acquire Greenland there
will be difficulties nhead for our trims
aliantic commerce and international
relations. If they have not acquired
it already, what is to prevent our se
curing it?"

Officers Arrest Some Thieves.
Eagle, Neb., Sept., 29. (Special
to The News) For two years past
Eagle and vicinity have been victim
ized by a band of robbers. Stores
have beeu broken into and goods car
ried awi.y, farmers have lost harness,
farm implements, tools ard poultry.
Last week a farmer liviug near Pal
myra, in Otoo couuty, missed a load of
oats. It was early in the morning
when he missed his oat!1, and he ut
once followed the wagon track, which
led to Eagle," nhaie he ascertained
that a young maa named Stuiiley,
living four miles south of Eagle, had
bold a load early in the morning.
The matter was placed in the haoda
of the sherilf of Otoe couuty, who'at
once placed young Stanley under ar
rest and proceed to search the far in
house jointly occupied by young Stan
ley and his older brother. The search
resulted in unearthing eight pairs of
fine pants, shoes and other articles
that had been taken from I leach &
Venner of Eigle, two sets harness,
taken from J. M. Garden last winter,
together with other items yet uniden
tified. The older brother was placed
under arrest and taken to Nebraska
City. The Stanley boys were unmar
ried, very gentleman-like in appear
ance and the last to be suspicioned as
petty thieves or robbers. The near
neighbors were as surprised as any
one, and now that the cat is let out of
the bag, many things are coming to
light that were suspicious before.
