SMITH TEAM LOSES TO LOCALS Sattle is Wen by Eagles by the Score of 2 to 1 in a Close and In- terestmg From Monday's I'aily. ; Yesterday afternoon the Eagles of this city cleaned up on the M. K. ! Smith team of Omaha in a very close and exciting game of the national pastiui". 'the tcore Wing 2 to 1 in favor of the locals when the final inning "was played out. The game was very interesting barring the eighth inning when a dispute between the visitors and um pire Kelly threatened to cause ceas ing of activities and the Eagle team gave one of the best exhibitions of baseball playing that has been seen on th local lot this season, as the infielders took all kinds of chances and fielded like a house afire. Pete Herold. wiio officiated at short, was in his test form and nothing was al lowed to escape him, while Hilt at second and Newman and O'Donnell at third and first were able to check any of the hits of the visiting team. The game ran along very smoothly up to the fourth inning with neither side showing any signs of scoring but in the fourth the Eagles threa tened to score. Wolff had been retired when Herold placed a safe hit over short and was followed by O'Donnell who repeated the performance of I'tte. Harry Harry Newman tiapped a hot grounder to the visiting pitcher vvno proceeded to double the Eagles, re tiring the sice. The sixth frame of the game gave the Plattsmouth team their two tal lies that meant victory for them.l Connors, who was first up in this inning garden rapped a safe one to the left ;:nd was advanced on a sacri fice by Wolff, Pett? Herold then laid :i safe one to center field that scored Connors and William P. O'Donnell1 brousrht Pete home with the second run by a clean two badger to left field. Newman and Hilt closed the inninsr by two h'.gli flies that were nailed by the visitors. In the seventh the locals opened up in a manner that looked good for more runs, as Mason the first man up secured a 'two saeker but that was as far as he got, James and Winscot retiring through the strikeout route and Wolff grounding to first. The eighth inning gave ihe vis itors e.ne run and also led to the scene that came near marking the sudden end of the game. The first of the S:ni lis up drew a pass from Con nors and was followed by a safe rap to second that Hilt could not handle and the third of the visitors wielded the willow safely for an infield hit. filling the sacks. Here is where the erupt ir ii occured. The batter that followed had been drawing balls and strikes alternately and with two! strikes and three balls on the man umpire Kelly motioned in the direc-i tion of the first sack, the batter, claiming that this was the sign fori him to take his base, and as he strr-.t-j eil to walk to f ir-1 the man at third j came in and was tagged out andj this constituted two outs for the vis-! itors and they pnoeeded to put up a loud anc: vigorous protest and in ; which the greater art of the fas ' joined.

I later scored the man on third and the man on second trying to score was thrown out at the plate. In the opening of the ninth inning the visitors threatened to do some business with the locals, having a man on first when a hard fly was driven out to the right garden that locked gotnl for a score but Harry I WincCOt with a great catch nicked the hopes of the visitors. M TAKING OUT LICENSE TO ACT AS BOXING REFEREE From Tuesday's oaliy. Edward Brant ner of Pender, form- I erly a well known resident of this jcity and a thorough follower of the J sport game, came in yesterday for a few days' visit here at the home of Mr. and Mrs. John Cory, parents of Mrs. Brantner.

KLU KLUX KLAN TO HAVE BRANCH HERE from trie office of Countv Agricultur- Movement Launched to Start Chapter1 ripwas und the auspices of Cf Historic Order m This City ;the Farm Bureau and the Purebred at an Early Date. j Livestock P.reeaers association and 'there were ten cars and forty people From Tuesdays ijaiiy ! started from Weeping Water. That Last evening a number of the res-1 idents of this cit were gathered for . the purpose of launching the organi- ' zation of a chapter of the Klu Klux ; Klan in this community, and is a' part of the expansion of this order; that lias grown to a large member-, ship in the state of Nebraska in the. last few weeks. j The Klan requires a certain num- ber of members enrolled before aj charter is granted 'rnd it is then given the oft icial reer-nit ion of the national officers and listed as an ficial branch of the great society thatj is at the present time one of the growing forces of the country. To the general public the work ings of the Klan have been veiled with the greatest .-ecrecy and in many cases the order has suffered from the acts of persons outside of the organization who have st cast reflections on the weirk iven to of the order, but in most of the cases parties have been exposed and order cleared of any ."bare in the j the the! acts charged to thm. The Klan has only been organized in the state of Neb-a.-l:a in the la:t few months and already has a large number of chapter.;, hotng especially itrong in Omaha and Lincoln. The order retains the impressive initia tory ceremony that was characteris tic cf it in the historic rt: ys of its inception in the south following the ivil war, when it arose to protect the wbife-rce and-Uit security and safety of the womanhood of the coun try. The order is now pledged to the maintenance of the spirit of Amei icanb m and the 1 igbest stand ard of manhood and womanhood in the United States. Its membership is drawn bent people of the nation every state of the union drawing a large number f rom and they into the in are the order. Many people have misunder :tood the organization but a thor ough investigation has shown that it is an organisation that is well worthv of the true American. WILLIAM BARCLAY IS SERIOUSLY ILL State President cf the Eagles Taken Sick This Morning; At Early Hour, Suffers Much. Pain From Tuesday's ii!y. William Barclay, state worthy president of the Fraternal Order of Eagles, is confined to his bed today as the result of a very severe attack of what seems to be either gall stones or appendicitis, the exact nature of which has not been determined. Mrs. Barclay was awakened this morning shortly after 4 -o'clock by the groans of her husband who was apparently suffering a great deal of pain until the arrival cf a physician to look after his care. The patient was in such shape that it was necessary to have him given a hyperdemic injection to quiet his pain and from then on un til this noon he was resting in sleep. The patient suffered a similiar at tack some four years ago and at that time it was thought that he was affected with gall stones but as it ' did not. bother him further he was net operated on and it is more than "probable that the present attack is a reoecurance of the same trouble. His host of friends ar trusting i that h may soon rally from the ef- fects of his illness and be able to be ', up and around as usual, although it may be necessary to have him taken to a hospital for treatment. STILL VERY SICK Word "has been received here by ; Joseph arga from his wife, who is . at Chicago at the bedside of her I brother, Carl Hermann, announcing j that the brother is now in very seri ! ous condition and that it is impossi- ble at this time to fully determine just how serious the case may devel 1 op. Mrs. Warga may decide to return home at once if the case is not too . critical iand in case the brother takes a turn for the worst Mr. Warga is expecting to go to Chicago to .visit the brother-in-law.
