IN SUIT FOR DAMAGES ZIMMERER AND MAR- QUARDT BLAMELESS Kr"m Saturdava Dally Harry Marquardt and Joseph Zim- merer of Avoca. who were several months ago made co-defendants in a damage suit for ?2",00, filed in Doug ais county by a man named Dougherty, against the Omaha Speedway com pany and the two Cass county men, have just been held blameless in the matter by the jury in the court of Judge Troup. The jury, howeve.-, gave a verdict for $10,000 against th Speedway association. The accident occurred a few yeais ago and-the ca in which Mr. Zimmerer and Mr. Mar quarcit were riding was crossing the track when it was ran into by the racer, Dougherty, who was rather bad ly injureJ as a result, but the two men showed clearly that it was necessary for them to leave the speedway, and the only way open was to cross the track, and in tloing so they collided with the racer. D. V. Livingston cf Nebraska City was the attorney fo the defendants. OUR OLD FRIEND JAMES M. STONE GALLS OH THE JOURNAL This morning James M. Stone, one of the old residents of the county and one of the loyal democrats of Cass was in the city for a few hours, en route to his home in Nehawka form Omaha, where he has been taking treatment from Dr. GiiTord for the relief of his eyes, which have oc- (' casioned him considerable trouble in the last few years. Mr. Stone has re cently returned heme from the San Luis Valley, of Colorado, where he spent a short time w'ith his son, Les ter Stone, who has a large farm in that section, and the trip seems to have been of great benefit to our old friend, who at this time is feeling tine with the exception of his eye trouble. While in the coty Mr. Stone paid the Journal oflice a brief call and spent some time visiting with the editor, and it is unnecessary to state that the visit was one of the rarest pleasure as there are no liner men in the coun ty than Mr. Stone. He spent the day here as the guest of his daughter-in-law, Mrs. Chas. S. Stone. Visiting in the City. Yesterday the pleasant home of Mr. and Mrs. W. E. Rosencrans in this city was the scene of a very pleasant oc casion when a number of their friends gathered to spend the day in their hos pitable home. The party was com posed of Mr. and Mrs. B. I. Clements and ton, Guy, of Elmwood; F. A. Raker and wife of Imperial, and E. T. Hughes and wife and little daughter and Mr. and Mrs. Samuel Raker of Gretna. Suiters a Serious Accident. Rex Major, who was injured a few days ago at Dunlap, Iowa, when he had his right hand come in contact with a buzz saw used in cutting wood in a sawmill near that place, came in yesterday and will visit with relatives until. his hand is healed up. The little finger of his right hand was cut en tirely off and all the others badly lacerated, but it is thought that they will be. saved to him. He had only been feeding wood to the machine when the accident occurred. "THE PLUNDERER" COMING TO THE GEM TUESDAY NIGHT One of the feature pictures to be shown here will be that of "The Fiunderer," with William Farnum in the stellar part, and the strong feat ure of the photo play makes it more thrilling than that of "The Spoilers," in which Mr. Farnum appeared. This will be shown at the Gem theater oi Tuesday evening for 5 and 15 cents, and is a six-reel feature that is well worth seeing. "The Plunderer" affords for William Farnum a real "Farnum Part" big Bill Matthews cf the Croix d'Or mine, a doughty, splendid steel-knit fellow, with a big, warm hoart and a punch in each hand. Bill and his partner are harrassed by a secret enemy who im prisons them in a mine shaft, causes a strike of the workmen end blows up the reservoir upon which the power of the mine depends. These are only a few of the thrills that keep you breathless hanging on to the arms of your seat. The final climax, where Big Bill and his partner discover the: er.emy, is the mast stirring of ull. A pulse-stirvir.g battle with bar fists in which Big Bill bests a score of drink-crazed miners in a fi;:htr that for sheer thrills and heart-catching ex citement has never been excelled on the stage, or, screen, is one of the big features of this super-picture. Then, too. there :s a splendid double 'ove story which leaves a happy glow In the spectator's mind. In fact, "The rii-ndercr" is as perfect a photoplay as has yet been achieved, and deals with clean, manly men, affecting senti ment, the lust for yellow gold an 1 swift, dynamic drama. PARTIES GO AFTER JOE SMITH'S CHICKENS AGAIN Frr-m Friday's Pally. Joseph II. Smith, residing on Win tcrsteen Hill, in the past few days hir suffered the loss of a number of hi1 im2 Plymouth Rock chickens, which were made away with by some hard hearted person. The chickens, it is thought, were shot, as Mr. Smith re ports having heard shots a short tim-3 before missing the chickens on Wed nesday night, and all signs of thi fowls gone, and he thinks that who ever was the persou committing the outrage they made away with the chickens and later enjoyed a fe'ast on the fcwls. These chickens have been great pets of Mr. Smith and he feels very much wrought up over the affair. No Need to Hunt for the Latest Sty les. You'll Find Them Here!
