short visit with them, en route

WHEAT NOT SO HEAVY
AS IAST YEAR ONLY 30
BOSHELS PER ACKER
R. L. Propst of Mynard and his
sons have just completed a job of
threshing at. the farm r Luke L.
Wiles, near this city, and Ihe re
sult of the yield has been quite
gratifying- to Mr. Wiles, as the
wheat averaged some thirty bush
els to the acre and is of very pood
quality. The wheat is not as
heavy as last year, but then the
crop of last season was an excep
tionally heavy one, while this year
it is as Rood as generally is found
in the west, and is of excellent
quality. Mr. Propst has done
considerable threshing this sea
son so far and finds that the
wheal, he has handled is as good
as has been threshed out in the
past few years.
The Journal ads pay.
Yesterday afternoon the Red
Sox gathered in another victory
on the diamond, when they added
the scalp of the K. & M. team of
Omaha to their collection by the
decisive score of 8 to 1. Tin
Omaha learn was composed of
some of the old veterans of the
game, but their skill was lacking;
yesterday against the heavv stick
work of the local boys, and the
Sox took full advantage of the oc
casion to fatten their batting'
averages at the expense of voting
Mr. Lusely, the 17-year-old won
der, who attempted to do the
twirling- for Ihe visitors, and se
cured seventeen hits off of his
delivery, which were productive of
eight runs, while the K. & M.'s
were able to annex only two hits
from Pike.
The game opened very favor
ably for the visitors, when
Molarity was able to place a
grounder to second base on which
he reached first on a wild throw,
but was nipped a few minutes
later at the second sack. Cass,
who followed, was only able to hit
to first, where he was retired;
Minieus then coming- to bat laced
one out to third that was secured
by llerold, who threw to first, but
as Ault was only six feet tall he
could not reach the ball and the
runner was safe on the sack.
Knabe retired the visitors, how
ever, by being- thrown out at first
base. Arries opened the game
for Plaltsmouth by striking- out;
Parriott was juggled out between
short and first; C. Smith was
given a lease of life by being' pre
sented with a base on balls, but
was unable to do business, as
while llerold was attempting' to
connect with Ihe ball, Smith re
tired the side by attempting- to
steal second, and was caught
easily.
There was nothing- doing- for
the visitors in the second inning1,
as they did not even get to first
base and retired in one, two, three
order. Our sterlings, however,
succeeded in chalking- up the first
score of the game, when llerold
was allowed his base on ba'lls;
Carle attempted a sacrifice and
laid a bunt down the third base
line that could not be handled in
lime and the batter was able to
reach first safely. William Ma
son, who was there with the big
stick yesterday, straightened out
on one of the slants of Lou.-ley's
and placed it out to center field in
safety, which brought Herobl
home and advanced Carle to third;
Ault, who also had his batting eye
working", followed at bat and laid
down a line bunt, on which he
reached first, but Carle, who was
slow in getting into action, was
nipped at the home plate as he
attempted to score. Pike hit to
short and Mason was thrown out
at third and 1'ike at first, which
retired the side.
The visitors secured their
solitary tally in the third inning",
when Pearson rapped out a two
bagger to center field, an'd being"
the first man up the situation
looked very dubious for a few
minutes; Lousley retired, Parriott
to Ault, Pearson advancing' on the
out, and a few minutes later he
scored on a balk by Pike, who
was attempting" the fast return
and was wound up to deliver the
ball when he found the catcher
was not ready for the throw and
he was compelled to allow the
runner to come home; Morarity
then followed and rapped out an
other two-bag"ger, making" the.
situation quite critical, but little
damage was done, as Cass was
out on a lly to Parriott, while
Minieus fanned out, retiring- the
side. The Red Sox did not fret
dangerous in their half, although
two men were on the bases, but
were unable to get in scoring
distance of the home plate.
To even matters up the Red Sox
got busy in the fourth, after the
visitors had been retired, and ad
ded, another to their list of scores.
Carle had been put out on a hit to
second and Mason struck out,
when Ault came to bat and suc
cessfully placed a safe single in
center field and was advanced
when Pike singled to left, and on
the hit of Neitzel Ault scored.
NeitzeU was""retired at second
when he attempted to steal.
The balloon containing the
hopes of the K. & M.'s took flight
in the seventh inning, when the
Red Sox buried them beneath an
avalanche of hits that resulted
in six scores being annexed by the
locals Parriott, who opened the
inning for Ihe locals was retired,
Lousley to Knabe; C. Smith was
given first base by gelling part of
his body in Ihe way of one of the
slants of Lousley; Herobl was put
out on a hit, o shortstop; Carle
was walked by Lousley; Mason
then opened up the excitement by
making a hot hit to third base
that scored Smith; Ault I hen came
to the front and placed a safe one
lo right field; Pike, who followed
Ault at bal, proceeded to put the
game on ice by rapping out a two
bagger to center field, which
brought in Carle, Mason and Ault.
Neitzel added lo the agony of (In
visitors by singling lo centei
scoring Pike, and Arries, with a
Iwo-bagger, scored Neitzel. Par
riott retired Ihe side by a foul out
to first base.
The line-up of the game was as

Late Saturday night near tlx
midnight hour, Charles Zitka, re
siding in the west part of the
city on the south road lo the
cemetery, was killed by being run
over by a train on the Missouri
Pacific within half a block his
home. From w hat in formal ion
tliJit con hi be secured it seems
that parlies at Ihe Missouri Pa
cific depot who were awaiting Ihe
coming of the south bound mid
night train saw Zitka there and it
is claimed that he caught, the
train to ride to his home, which
is just west of the crossing on
Pearl street. It is thought that a
he attempted to alight from (he
moving train he fell back under
Ihe cars and was mangled by Ihe
fast moving train.
Shortly after the passing of the
train one of the residents near the
crossing, who was sleeping in the
yard at his home, heard a loud
scream and hastened to the spot
from whence il seemed to pro
ceed, and found the body of Mr.
Zitka lying along the hacks badly
mangled and almo.-t unrecogniza
ble. The right leg Was severed
just above the knee, while on the
shoulder a large section of the
lle.-h had been lorn and the fa-e
was stralche,i and cut in li ighl
ful shape o as to make it ;lmo.-t
unrecognizable. From Ihe wound.-
on the body it would seem that the
nan had attempted to alivht from
the train and falling back under
it had been dragged a Consider
able distance to inflict the injures
he hat! received.
A few years ago Zitka was
struck by a train while walking
along the track, only a short dis
tance from where the tragedy oc
curred Saturday night, and on
that occasion was hurled some
twenty feet down asteep embank
ment, but this did not result in
any serious damage to him and
evidently did not prove an object
lesson to keep ofi the track and
right-of-way.
The authorities were notified at
once alter me oiscoverv o i :i
bodv and it was removed to the
undertaking rooms of M. Hild,
where the inquest was held under
Ihe direction of Coroner Clements.
Mr. Zitka was a oung man and
unmarired, who bail been making
his home with his father on the
home place on the cemetery road
for the past few years. He was
employed for a short time as a
driver by Edward onnt. the pro
prietor of the Peerless bar, and
was a young man ot quiie an ex
tensive acquaintance throughout
I lie city, and his many friends will
regret very deeply to learn of his
death.
The coroner's jury, after view
ing the body, retired lo the court
house and after a short delibera
tion brought in a verdict that the
voung man came to his death by
icing run over by a smith bound
train on the Missouri Pacific be
tween the hours of 11 p. m. and
12:30 a. m.
The funeral of Ihe unfortunate
young man was neiii mis morning
from the undertaking rooms of M.
Hild, and the body inferred in Oak
Mill cemetery.
