lady In question, who had several
small children with her, did not buy
her ticket until after the train was
due. Fortunately it was laie so she
wa3 enabled to take it. She was
going to Chariton, la., Instead of
Sheridan, la., as the paper had it.
The boy in checking the trunks mis
understood her and checked them to
Sheridan, Wyo. Instead of making
certain the trunks were" checked
right, the lady with ber children
went into the waiting room and sat
down. When. the train came in she
did not prepare to board It, an
made no move until the' Journal
man went in and called her atten
tion to the train. It had gotten un
der headway when he ran out and
had the conductor stop the train for
her.. The News man ln the kindness
of his heart wanted to assist the
lady and took charge of ,the bag
gage checks. It was noticed that
they were wrong and Agent Pickett
agreed to mall them to her at Charl
ton. The Newi man In his Indigna
tion at the mistake Insisted that he
would attend to the mailing of them
and proceeded to take them and
mailed them to Sheridan, la.. In
stead of Chariton. This will oc
casion the lady a delay of several
days ln getting her baggage and
would have been obviated had Agent
Pickett and his employes been left
alone and permitted to untangle the
trouble. This statement is made to
set Mr. Pickett and his .employes
right with the public.' as they, feel
an Injustice was done them In the
matter.
Fine Football (Jame.
Tomorrow afternoon at 2 o'clock
the Plattsmouth foot ball' team will
engage ln a spirited contest with the
'Excelsiors" of Omaha, conceded to
be the amateur champions of Om
aha. The "Excelsiors" have defeat
ed such strong aggregations as the
Shamrocks, Diets Athletics and Fort
Crook. The Plattsmouth team has
been practicing for some time with
the Intention of downing the afore-
Bald aggregation and will have the
assistance of several old timers who
have Been service on the University
squad. The boys have been to con
siderable expense to secure this game
and It Is hoped that their efforts will
be repaid by a large attendance.
The city attorney of Lincoln,
Judge C. C. Flandburg, is threatlng
to raid the social clubs of that city
If their counsel do not consent to
an early hearing before the supreme
court of the question as to their
right to sell liquor. That is one way
of getting at it. He proposes to ar
rest some of the bartenders and
then have them taken out of jail by
habeas corpus so as to bring up the
question of their right to sell ln a
speedy manner. It is a matter of
some curopity to see wnat tne su
preme court will do in tuis case.
They have held once that the cldb3
could sell but will they do so again?
Times and men change alike.
Net only the country newspapers
but those of the cities make some
awful blunders. Today's ' World
Herald is a living example of this.
The leader of the first page states
that the government is "Ready to
Demand Reparation From "the
Venezuelan Government" for the
execution of two Amercan citizens
by the government of Nicaragua.
Just why reparation would be de
manded by this government of the
Venezuelan government Is not clear
and the body of the dispatch does
not bear out the headlines. When
one Is Joking about the errors of
the country press, it is pleasant to
be able to set back and point to
the' gross carelessness or mistakes
of the big city papers.

Much to the surprise of everyone
I the University of Michigan football
team last Saturday administered .a
fine drubbing to the team of the
University of Minnesota. This ell-
mates the latter team from the
championship of the west and prac
tically makes Notre Dame the cham
pions as they beat Michigan finely.
This makes two big surprises In the
western football world this season,
Notre Dame's victory over Michigan
and Michigan's victory over Min
nesota. The rooters all looked to
see the latter team win. In the east
Yale did the expected and humbled
Harvard ln hollow style. This
leaves the blue victor In that sec
tion and the Catholics In the west.
A game between these two colleges
would be worth seeing.

Lead, S. D., Is on the verge of
a great strike. 2,500 miners em
ployed ln the HomeBtake mines at
that place have voted to go on a
strike on account of the company
posting a notice that the mines
would be non-union hereafter. This
means serious trouble ln that sec
tion. A large proportion of the
miners are foreigners with scant
knowledge of American ways and
they may be found very troublesome
and hard to handle. The Hearst
Interests are largely predominant in
the mines and it Is difficult to re
concile his well known Baying re
garding labor with the action of
the managment of the mines. The
Black Hills is honeycombed with

According to the general counsel
of the Standard Oil company, tne
"victory," which the government
won Saturday In the United States
circuit court at bt. Louis, Is mere
ly a "theoretical" victory and Is of
no force or effect. This has been
the' trouble with most of the "Vic
tories which the United States has
won. In Its war on the trusts. The
results have not wenkened the trusts
but In some cases have tnadti them
stronger as the court has cften In
dicated to them where they could
strengthen themselves. Texas Is the
only state -to score a real victory
over the trusts. H cost the Staud-
The Wright Brothers have incor

There Is now no hope for finding
any of the ill-fated miners in the
coal mineB at Cherry, 111., alive.
There were 210 men trapped like
rate and of these only 20 have come
out alive, making the disaster one
of the worst in the country's ex
perience. There is every prospect
that criminal prosecutions will fol
low the disaster as 'criminal care

sible for the disaster.
The usual crop of disasters from
fall storms on the great lakes have
commenced to come in. . A great
storm swept over Lake Michigan
yesterday wrecking many boats with
a loss of lives also. The storm' whs
raging all last night and it will be
several days before the, full resujtij
of Its fury are known. Every, year1
the lakes take their toll of human
lives and still the hardy mariners
continue to risk their lives In the
dangerous season.
It Is announced that the Omaha
antl-saloon league endorses the at
tempt which Is being made to oust
Mayor Dahlman. This is nothln
new. Ever since Jim was made
mayor the anti-saloon league has
been urging his removal. The only
remarkable feature would 4iave been
to have the anti-saloon league take
stand in bis favor. That would
a
have excited some comment.
The abolition of the House of
Lords appears to be a possible out

as it goes to them from the Com

country and bring pressure to re
cast the Lords. This is an extraor

country are against the budget which
contains a number of new schemes
for raising funds and Increases the
