GAME CALLED AT
DELCO LIGHT AGENT WAS
RAINED IN AT PLATTSMOUTH
Isy Rosenthal, Delco light agent for
Cass and adjoining counties, was
rained in with his Ford at Platts
mouth this week. As the rain and bad
roads prevented him from calling on
people in the country, we prevailed
on him to let us do a little hustling
for him and the Delco light in the
shape of an ad in the press. We are
charging him a "contingent fee," as
the lawyers would say. We are to
receive full pay for this ad for every
inquiry received resulting in a sub
sequent sale previous to July 1st. No
inquiries no sales no pay for us.
We believe as one user tells us, every
man who owns his own farm and has
it nearly paid for should have electric
light. And we firmly believe if some
of you could see the Delco light in
one of the homes mentioned in the
Delco light advertisement you would
very likely say to yourself, "I think
as much of my wife, my children and
my home life in general as that fel
low does. I will write the agent, and
at least find out not whether I can
afford Delco light, but whether I can
afford to do without Delco light."
Inquiries phoned to this office will
receive as prompt attention as those
mailed to Mr. Rosenthal's address in
Omaha.

JOSEPH BECKER NEAR DEATH.
From Tuesday's iJaily.
Mis. Mary B. Allison of this city
today received a message from Wich
ita, Kan., announcing that her broth
er, Joseph Becker, was sinking fast
and that his death was lcoked for
ajt any time. Mr. Becker was shot
several weeks ago by highwaymen
and it has been impossible to give
him relief from the effects of the
wounds, and his condition has become
critical. Mrs. Allison departed this
afternoon for Union to be with her
aged mother.
Make one more gun for me!
1 was with them p.t Manassas
The bully Boys in Gray;
I heard the thunders roarin'
'Roun' Stonewall Jackson's way;
And many a time this sword of mine
Has blazed the way for Lee;
But if this old nation goes to war,
Make one more gun for me!
I'm not so full o fight in",
Nor half so full o' fun,
As I was back in the sixties
When I shouldered my old gun;
It may be that my hair is white
Such things you know must be;
But if this old Union goes to war,
Make one more gun for me!
I hain't forgot my raisin'
Nor how in sixty-two,
Or thereabouts, with battle shouts,
I charged the Boys in Blue;
And I say, I fought with Stonewall,
And blazed the way for Lee;
If this old Union's in for war,
Make one mors gun for me!
Atlanta Constitution..
HIS NORTHERN BROTHER.
Just make it two, old fellow
I want to stand once more
Beneath the old Hag with you
As in the days of yore
Our fathers stood together
And fought on land and sa
The battles fierce that made us
A nation of the free.
I whipped you down at Vicksb-urg,
You licked me at Bull Run;
On many a field we struggled
When neither victory won.
You wore the gray of Southland,
I wore the Northern blue;
Like men we did our duty
When screaming builets flew.
For years we fought like devils,
But when the war was done
Your hand in mine in friendly clasp,
Our two hearts beat as one.
And now when danger threatens,
No North, no South we know;
Or.ce more we stand together
To fight a common foe.
My head, -like yours, is frosty
Our age is creeping on;
Lift's sun is lower sinking
My day will soon be gone.
But if our country's honor .
Needs once again her son,
I'm ready, too. old fellow
So get another gun !

LION AND A HALF
Lincoln, Neb., June".". The Ne
braskabraska bank guaranty fund
will be increased on July 1 to a total
of more than a million and a half
dollars by the semi-annual assess
ment which will be made on that date
upon the deposits of all state banks.
Reflecting the remarkable leap in
material wealth of Nebraska, the
guaranty fund has in a comparative
ly short space of time passed the
fondest hopes of the legislature which
enacted the law providing for it.
Eight years ago when a legislature
passed the guaranty law, the figure
of $1,500,000 was set as the limit of
the fund, and it was provided that
whenever it should reach that amount
no further assessments should be lev
ied until it had become depleted be
low $1,000,000 through the payment
of depositors in failed banks.
When the law was enacted no one
dreamed that Nebraska was going to
increase so rapidly in wealth asv it
has been doing in the last five years.
There were only 500 state banks and
the aggregate deposits did not total
$75,000,000.
Then came the big wave of pros
perity of recent years and Nebraska
began to, jump ahead. Soon the S100,
000,000 was attained and deposits be
gan to. jump ahead by leaps and
bounds. The last report showed de
posits of over $20S,000,000.

TORM DAMAGE
LEAPED
The disturbed condition of railroad
traffic in this section of the .state
caused by the cloudburst and .storm
of Tuesday night has to a great ex
tent been quieted and the train serv
ice between this city and Omaha,
which was decidedly poor yesterday,
is now down to almost normal. The
Missouri Pacific has had their line
opened up from thio city north and
the danger caused by the flooding of
the Pappio valley and the endanger
ing oi tne uriUgcs stems to nnve ;
passed way as the high water there
has subsided.
The Burlington has been r.Me to
get their tracks in fair shape, con
sidering the excessive damage done
by the storm, in the fact that the
Omaha division was suffering from
two land slides near Bellevue, while
between Chalco and South Omaha a
strip of several thousr.nd feet of track
was washed out and cut Omaha off
completely from the Burlingtoiilir.es
west. All the through Denver-Chicago
trains passed through this city
over the old main line from Ashland
cast and the Omaha connections;' were
made at Pacific junction. The Platts
mouth parlies who were rou.kt in
Onu.Iia by the storm had a very hard
time in getting home, being compelled
to travel from Council BlurTs to Pj
ci lie Jurction, and, while they had a
good rice for the money, it was de
cidedly inconvenient to spend two
hours on a trip that ordinarily re
quired oniy about forty minutes. Ail
the available men in the extra gangs
and section forces were used 2-e?ter-
day in getting the line in shape feri
travel and to repair the uumuge done
by the elements.
