HAS AUTOMOBILE MIX UP.
From Wednesday's Patly.
Yesterday afternoon Fred G. Eg
enberger, the real estate dealer, had
a very serious automobile accident
on Chicago avenue and as a result
his car will be out of commission for
several days. Mr. Egenberger was
traveling south along the avenue
and when near the intersection of
Tenth street and the avenue he ap
roached the oil truck operated by
Jack Darrell. As Mr. Egenberger
came up behind the truck ho
thought 'that the truck was slowing
down for a stop and he started to
pull out to one side to pass and as
he did so the driver of the truck
also started to turn out and the re
sult was that a collision was inevit
able and Mr. Egenberger ran his car
up onto the curb in the hope of
being able to avoid a smash up but
a portion of his car crashed into the
oil truck with the result that the
radiator and the front fenders of the
car of Mr. Egenberger were badly
mashed up and will require some
time before they can be put in
proper shape.
NEED OF CENSUS TAKERS.
From Wednesday's Dally.
Fred Hellier of Nebraska City,
supervisor of the census for the
first district of Nebraska, was in
the city yesterday for a few hours
looking over the local situation and
endeavoring to get in touch with
parties who might be interested in
taking up the work of gathering
the census in Cass county. The re
sponses to the call for census enum
erators has not been as satisfactory
as had been hoped for by Mr. Hel
lier and lie is very desirous of hav
ing the county well covered by com
petent persons who will see that the
right kind of a canvass is made of
the different precincts. Mr. Hellier
is a live wire and will see that the
first district census is taken in the
proper manner and it will be the

ones were alleged complicity in the
mob violence, so far as is known
new. A third was lor granc lar-j
eery, while the fourth was not

The most Porious charge contain
ed in any of the indictments is that
of frst degree murder against James

Vip latter beine a machinist of Sa
vannah. Ga. They are charged on
three counts with having contribut
ed to the murder of Will Brown,

leged to have murdered with revolv
er shots; the second charges them
with having placed the rope' about
the negro's neck and hanged him
while the. third count charges that
they gave the colored man piortal
wounds upon his "head, body, stom
ach, breast, back and sides." caus
ing his death.
Held as Conspirators.
Shields and Jenkins with Sam
Novak. 1914 Grace street, are also
charged with conspiracy to commit
murder. They, with others, are al
leged to have armed themselves
with "guns, revolvers, clubs, stones,
ropes ajid other weapons" and that
they did "besiege, attack, set fire to
and break and enter" the court
bouse "to forcibly get possession" of
the negro. The indictment also
alleges that they induced others to
to do same acts.
Two were indicted for firing the
court house building, the specific
charge 'being arson. They are
Shields, who lives at 3021 South
Twenty-third street, and Henry
Louis Weaver, 1537 North Seven
teenth street.
For unlawful assemblage and
rioting four persons are named, Wil
liam Francis, George Sutej. and
James Sutej are jointly included in
one indictment, while Eli Snyder, a
16-year-old boy living at 3027 Val
ley street is charged with the same
crime in a separate indictment.
Two persons are charged with
carrying concealed weapons during
the rioting. One of these is Lester

making his home at 2226 Seward
Ptreet. The other is Leonard Web
er, an artist, living at 3350 South
Nineteenth street. Weber is mar
ried and 23 years old.
j Lincoln. Oct. 21. Current rumor
in Lincoln has it that J. E. Miller,
mayor of Lincoln, is strongly consid
ering the matter of entering the
democratic primaries to contest for
the democratic nomination for gov
ernor. '
I Everett Llovd. writer for the Na
tional Magazine of Boston, was in
Lincoln today and said that his mag
azine will soon carry a story of the
private and official life of Mayor Mil
ler. This publicity is probably a part
of the inception of Mayor .Miller's
candidacy. Miller is also said to
have the promised support of a Lin
coln newspaper.

the f.er.eral condition of the road.
Mr. Snoke gently broke the news to
the irate citicn that he was ?m
longer county commissioner and was
of the same opinion as the residents
as to the condition of the road.
While in the city Mr. Gerhard, who
