"3c per ICO; Senator Dunlap, 50c per 100, K. L. Kniss. - COLONEL EAEHR IS ALSO A WRESTLEE; , JUST ASK BUCKLES Fio'n Tuesday's Daily. - The Deniing, N. M., papers carry the following item about Colonel Baehr and his ability on his mat: Colonel "Bill" Baehr of the i27h field artillery" is no "mollycoddle. T. Itoosevelt in his most strenuous mo ments" had nothing on the colonel, whose favorite pasttime is wre;tlirg. Never is the doughty Nebraskan so happy as when he-is on the mat. working out and getting his nose rubbed into the canvas, or perform ing the same rite for some opponent. It is only fair to say that the colonel wins much more often than he loses. If you have any doubts as to his abil ity, ask Gi'y Buckles. Guy is some class as a boxer, but when he at tempted to meet the colonel on the mat things hegan to happen. The first result was that Buckles was flipped, flopped ' and . flung around until he, though a veteran and hard to fill with punishment, yelled that he had enough. Every afternoon the colonel worhs out in the gymnasium of the 127th field artillery, and he i3 always anx ious to meet a worthy opponent. Colo nel Baehr formerly was one of tse best wrestlers in the middle west, and as he continues to train, his oid cunning is returning to him. His popularity among the men under him is easy to explain when one has seen him undergoing the punishment of mat work with n sera phic smile wreathing nis counte nance. Without hesitation you world be forced to indorse him as one who would be fair-minded and game game to the core. The above item we clipped frcm the World Herald, and while the fact is leaking out that he is a wrestler at the camp it is not a new thing fo the people here. For when he was a ley at the school six miles west, of this city he had. an enviable reputa tion as one who could well care for himself in the ring, at that time. MAKES CHANGE IK MANAGER.

ARE ACROSS THE SEA TH SAFETY IF THE GOVERNMENT ONLY KNEW TIIrS From Wednesday's Daily. Cards have been received by ihe relatives and friends here telling of the safe arrival of the Plattsmouth boys who said a short time sinre. for the continent. As to where they are is not known, but it is knon that they have arrived safely. The government at Washington have a practice of notifying the safe arrival of those who sail when they shf ll have reached their journey's cad. There were four on the boat, Clifford Forbes, Julius Kalacek, Harry Wir.s cott and Anton Rys. If there are others we have not heard of them. Journal Want-Ads Pay! For four successive occasions. W. II. Rainey who ia an t-xperienctd farmer and stock raiser, and nmong the least cf his accomplishments ?s now the growing of the denestic fowl?, cooped up a rooster, to take to his farm south of the city. Ev erty time his (?) Koosterslii? suc ceeded in making his "?) escape. Finally Mrs. Rainey thought she wo::ld take a hand and upon the fourth capture, it was placed in a sack, the bottom of which wa out. and Mrs. Rainey tied a string to clo?e the home first shaking the rack to be sure there was nothing in which might not be wanted to bo carried to the farm. Then the io'.U was placed in the sack, and carefully deposited in the buggy, and thVen t the farm. When Mr. Rainey had gotten there he sought to remove the animal from the sack, and is djin.; so, out rolled an egg. This some what surprised Mr. Rainey notwith standing his experience, with fowls, putting forth his hand he grasped the egg and it was still warm. His friends ara chaffing Mr. Rain-y a good deal about the Booster .vhi'ii layo the egg, hut these are the facts juct the same. We think either Mr. Rainey should start a show with thU breed of chickens or report to the government, about this animal, and probibly it would be a fcatur? in solving the food problem, which is at this time a puzzle.
