SHIRT-TAIL PARADE BY THE HIGH HIGH SCHOOL STUDENTS Last evening a number of the students of the High school, at tired in night shirts and white masks, started out a few minute alter 8 o clock to indulge, in a small-sized night-shirt parade. going- up and down Main street and into the different busine: houses, where they passed through, giving their yells, and then took up their visits to the adjoining stores until a com plete round of the business houses were made.. The boys be- . haved themselves very well and did not cause anv damage. The only place where any trouble oc curred Was al the (Srarnl 'theater, where they boys attempted., to force their 'entrance, and Man ager Shlaes objected, telling the boys that the theater was crowd -i ed to the doors and they could not get in. The "nighl-shirler? attempted to push their way in anyway, and the manager was forced to. push them back, which caused some of the paraders to show a spirit of resistance, but lliey liualiy departed on their way without any further warlike demonstrations."" Mr. Shlaes staled (( Hie reporter for the Journal that he had no objection to the boys parading through his lhalcrs if lliey had not been so crowded, .'but feared that some one might get excited and start a panic, in which someone would have been injured, and he had no desire to be responsible for any accident of this kind. There is no one who objects to the boys having their fun, and in all the places they were not molested and" did not do anything out of the way. Sale Not Very Satisfactory. The sale of the stock of thor oughbred Poland-China swine belonging to the estate of the late August (Joider, yesterday at the home in the south part of the city, attracted quite a number of buyers, although the animals did not bring as ?ood a price as they should. There were some forty nine sold, which will average about 30 apiece. One thorough bred boar was sold to an Iowa breeder for 133, beinir the highest-priced animal sold.

LITTLE LEONARD BORN MEETS WITH A VERY SERIOUS ACCIDENT Leonard, the little 7-year-old on of Mr. and Mrs. Henry Born, residing a few miles southwest of this city, met with an accident yesterday afternoon that it was feared for a time might result in the loss of the sight of one of his eyes. I he little boy was playing around with his schoolmates at Ihe school house, near the Horn home, and in running around he fell into a pile of brushwood, with the result that a branch penetrated through the . lower eyelid and just escaped running into the eyeball, which would have caused the loss of the eye sight. Tin; little lad was taken to Omaha at once by the fright ened parents and an eye expert called lo look after the boy, but he found that the accident would not interfere with his eyesight unless other complications set in. The fact that Leonard escaped in Ihe accident without the loss of his eye will be the cause for much pleasure lo the friends of the Born family throughout this section of the county.

The death of this good old lady occurred after only about two weeks of serious illness, al though her health had been fail ing gradually for the past two vears. due principally to her ad vanced age. During Ihe past few years she had made her home with her two daughters, Mrs. C. F. Harris and Mrs. E. L. Daniel, near this village. While visitin at the home of Mr. and Mrs. Lee Faris a mile north of here she became seriously ill, and from that time she lost strength rapid ly until the end came on Mon day. Brief services were held at Ihe Fans home J uesday morn ing, conducted by Rev. W. A Taylor, alter which the remains were brought to this place for shipment back to her old home at Chilhowie, Va., where funeral services will be held. the re mains were accompanied from here by her daughters Mrs. liar ris and Mrs. Daniel. The pall bearers here were Y in held Sw an, James Niday, W. F. McCarrolI, J C. Hansell. J. D. Uramblet and Stephen Copen haver. The writer had not the. pleas ure of the acquaintance of tin deceased, but from the words of I hose w ho knew her best nom can doubt her neing a most es timable lady, one for whom all her companions had the highest esteem. Her maiden name was Mary Emily Faris, and her life was spent in her native stale un til a few years ago. She was married near Ihe place of her birth, her husband being John W. Hays, whose death occurred February 21, 18t3. They were Ihe parents of three sons and two daughters, Ihe sons being deceased, and Ihe two daughters are Mrs. c. j . Harris and .Mrs. J-. L. Daniel, both of whom reside near this village. The deceased was a good Christum lady, hav ing been a member of the Bap tist church the past fifty-live years, and her inlluence was al ways tor the happiness and up building of Ihe communities in which she lived.

Reynold:, the night yard master in the llurliuglou switch yards, was engaged in his duties, be met with an accident that might have terminated falally. lie was assisting in the work of switching- some firs and was crossing the track in front of t lie ipproaehing switch engine lo set i switch, and made a mis calculation of the speed at which Ihe engine was approaching or its distance from him and it was upon him before he realized its nearness. 51 r. Reynolds jumped from the track just as the engine came up and was struck a glac- ing blow on the left side and fell, fortunately on the outside of llw track, anil suffered only a dis located left shoulder as a result of the encounter wih the engine. lie was at once la'ken U) his home and medical attendance summon ed to set the injured member, and he was made as comfortable as possible, although he suffered a great deal of pain from the in jury, but he can feel very thank ful indeed that he was not thrown under Ihe engine lo be ground to pieces or have an arm or leg taken off. One of the things that was greatly in favor nf Mr. Rey nolds escaping was the fact thai the engine was only running at a rati' of about six miles an hour. The accident occurred in the north part of the yards, just above the switch s'lanly. From Nehawka. Mr. Mrs. Elmer near and Mrs. F. A.

ANOTHER FINE SUSPEND ED AND FELLOW INVITED TO LEAVE THE CITY ' - 9 '''.it Yesterday afternoon, with a voice choked with .emotion, Charles Callahan, a man who has been employed by the Nebraska Lighting company on the work ol extending their lines from this city, acknowledged the fact be fore Judge Archer that he had been found by the police Tuesday evening iu a slate of beastly in loxicalion, a f if J he asked that the court be merciful hi meeting, out justice, and iu view of his plea the judge assessed a fine of :! and trimmings, but on the promise of Charles to go and leave this little city the rep resentative of Ihe law suspended Ihe sentence in order that Ihe prisoner could put many miles between himself and this city, and he lost no lime in complying with the request of Ihe judge, and at last reports was still headed for the land of Ihe selling sun and going at a very lively IF you think about . it a minute, you'll readily see that paying $10 or $12 for a suit of clothes may really be extravagant, even wasteful, as compared with paying $18, $20 or $25. The $10 or $12 suit may not be worth the price in quality and ser vice; and the $20 suit may be worth more than the price. There's another phase of it, however, quite as important the $10 suit may be worth $10 in actual quality, but buying it may even then be an extravagance; for many men ought to wear better clothes than they do. Not because .the clothes are not worth what they paid for them, but because they're not worth enough. We want to see you in our good clothes from $18 to $25, for your economy; we can sell you lower priced clothes if you say so; worth all we ask. They're not cheaper; just lower priced. But when we advise you to buy our clothes from $18 to $25, we are really giving you our best judgement as to what's best for you.
