Mrs. Bert Jameson, went to Lincoln
Tuesday morning for a couple of days
visit.
The stork visited the home of Mr.
and Mrs, George Mark Saturday
night and left a fine young son in
their keeping. George was so elat
ed over the arrival that he placed a
box of cigars to the disposal of his
friends at Geo. Spohn's confection
ery store. Mr. Mark's family by his
first marriage were all girls which
accounts somewhat in his joy over
George Martin Mark, jr.
On Wednesday evening at the
home of the bride occurred the mar
riage of Benjamin F. Ruby to Mrs.
Jane Ingwersen, with Rev. Wm. F.
H ask ins, pastor of the Methodist
church officiating. Shortly after the
ceremony a number of neighborhood
friends -came serenading the newly
weds with song and noise-making
instruments of various kinds. The
serenaders were soon invited in to
partake of a treat provided for such
an emergency. Mr. and Mrs Ruby
are long time and" highly esteemed j
residents of Weeping Water and the
well wishes of the city and commun-
ity are extended to them as they
journey
forth together. They will
be at home to their friends in Mrs.
Ruby's residence on Eldora avenue
immediately.

On Monday Mr. and Mrs. E. T.
Comer moved to Elmer Boyles prop
erty in the east part of town froir

23 years and which, they had built.'

chased the Comer property, will move
to the same and Mr. and Mrs. Oscai
Miller will move from the farm tc

On Tuesday morning we were
somewhat surprised to see John L
Wood, Sr., step into the office fresh
from the land of sunshine, alligator:
ind happiness. He and his daugh
ter; Grace, had just arrived on the
morning train from St. Petersburg
Fla., where they had spent the win
ter. . They had spent over fou:
months there and say that they hac
bad but three light frosts all win
er. Also, Edwin Jeary and wife;
who had spent the winter there, sent
as a card stating that they were re
:urning to their home at Lincoln. .
On Monday the' little 10-year-olc
;on of Mr. and Mrs. Wm. Hottle re
ceived a bad and somewhat seriour
injury when Mr. Hottle was loading
j-ith a pitch fork. He did not no
tice the little fellow who had
limbed up on the wagon and the
ork struck him in the face, one of
he tines piercing -an eyeball. The
ittle fellow was immediately has
ened to Lincoln where he could get
proper care. It is likely that the
;ye can be saved, but it is thought
hat he will lose the sight of the eye.
Vccording to the report of Tuesday
Homing the boy would be brought
lome and there wa3 a possible chance
that he would be able to see with the
injured eye in a short time again.

BALLOT CASE.
DECISION WILL BE MADE SOON
Attorney General Davis in MaV V,.r
mal Appeal ance for Secretary of
State who is Named Defendant
Secretary of State Darius M. Ann-
berry will not be compelled to be his
own attorney in the suit filed against
him by Will M. Maupin of Sco
Bluff county who says he is irter ;t
ed in enforcement of laws. Th?-:
I retary of stat. j has been notified by
I the supreme court to show cause
Monday why ho should not be com
manded by the mandamus route to
take the name of John II. Morehearl
from the primary ballot as a demo
ciatic candidate for governor, Atlor
. ney General Pavis has consented
represent the secretary of state. In
eddition I. L. Albert of Columbus
will appear as attorney for -Miv.'"'-head.
Mr. Amsberry did not care n
act as his own attorney, for he had
often heard that one who does thi
has a fool for a client,
j A nice li'.t'e legal fight is expect
ed. Only on 3 law point is involve
It is alleged by Maupin, old tire po
litical and democratic partisan ene nv
of Morehea '.hat the payment of tt
filling fee hy Morehead -within ths
time limit sat by law is not enoug'i.
that in fact a receipt for the paym?! t
must be on f.le in the office of tin
secretary of state when the nomin
ating petition Is filed. The petition
-was filed March 20, the last day al
l lowed by law. The receipt for the
j fee was not filed with fhi secre
tary of state until March 25 at which
time Morehead filed it with an affi
davit accepting the nominating peti
tion. As Attorney Genearl Davis dep;:rt
irent had given the secretary f state
?n f.rin ion hrlfHni that thf. l-M-i int
cral would decline to appear as attor-
, ney for the secretary of state and
defend his action in putting More
head's name on the primary ballot.
The attorney general has decided to
file an answer for the secretary of
state. This answer will merely re
cite the facts in the, case, over which
there is no dispute, and then r-x-
Governor Morehead's attorney. .Mr.
Albert, will argue the case. Mr. Al
bert called at the office of the stcrc
j tary of state Friday forenoon a;id
j obtained the facts In regard to the
filings on behalf of Morehead.
"He has complied with tbo spirit
of the law, if not the letter", said Mr.
Albert at the close of his inquiry.
Governor Morehead was In Lincoln
Friday. In his talks with friends he
appears to take it for granted that
Ralph Clark of Stella, who is Arihur
Mullen's preferred democratic candi

the democratic voters will be asked

whose names are now on the accred
ited list of candidates.
Fred W. Barnhart of HarMngton,
republican candidate for state auditor
called at the state house Friday. iTe
visited his opponent. State Auditor

mediate vicinity and is glad to get
into a campaign where he will have
some excuse for keeping up the fight.
He Is not sanguine about his nomi

that he has about one chance in a
hundred and he intends to take that
chance. State Journal.
BASE BALL FANS

president and H. N. Dovey, secretary

It is hoped this season to have a
generous response from the base ball
fans of the community to aid in
equipping the team with new uni
forms as the old sporting regalia is
decidedly showing the effects of the
wear of several seasons and in need
of being replaced. A committee will
be selected to canvass the fans of the
city as well as the public spirited
individuals to see what support can
be secured in raising the amount nec
essary to properly uniform the boys
for the 1920 season. The base ball
park will also require a considerable
amount of labor and material this
season as the fence is in bad shape
in a number of place9 and will re
quire a partial rebuilding to put in
first class shape.
The members of the team and new
recruits will be ready when the sea
son is ready to be launched and with
the hearty co-operation of the public
a real peppy base ball organization
for this city may be looked for..
A SPRINGTIME RAIN
From Thursday's Dally.
Last evening this city was visited
by a very plentiful rainfall, the first
of the spring season and the magical
effect of the April showers could be
noted this morning in the freshness
of the grass now bursting into life
and the budding trees that are soon
to take on leaf. The rain which fell
in the early morning between 2 and
3 o'clock was heavy enough to cause
a good sized stream of water to fol
low the water courses on Main street.
South of this city as far as Murray
the rainfall extended but to the west
the jrain only covered a "radius of
three miles. It has proven a great
benefit and freshened up everyone as
w-ell as marking the opening of real
spring.
