Alfred Rogers
Enters a Plea
of Not Guilty
Murray Section Man Charged With
Shootin? W. F. Connors With
Intent to Commit Injury.
From Thursday's Daily
Yesterday afternoon Alfred Rogers,
better known ' as "Shorty." Murray
section man on the Missouri Pacific
railroad, was arraigned in county
court before Judge A. H. Duxbury
on a charge cf shooting to commit
great bodily injury on W. F. Con
nors, secticn boss at Murray. To the
charge Mr. Rogers entered a plea of
not guilty.
This charge is the result of the
shooting affray at Murray late Tues
day night in which Rogers shot Con
nors with a 22-calbre revolver in a
dispute, the man claiming to have
shot in self defence.
Mr. Connors is at the hospital in
Omaha and while the charge has been
filed there will be no hearing on the
matter until the final outcome of the
condition of Mr. Rogers is determin
ed, as his evidence in the case will be
necessary in the prosecution or
Rogers. Should the case prove more
serious than anticipated, other
charges wil probably be filed but it
is not thought that the shooting will
result fatally to the section boss.

JOY AMID TROUBLE
From Thursday's Daily
Yesterday was a veritable day of
tears and sighs at the county court
as the machinery of justice was
grinding out puishment to several
parties charged with various offenc
es and the culprits after their trials
were given stiff jolts by the court,
but amid all of this there crept into
the day's work a ray or two of gold
en sunshine that detracted some
what from the hard and unfeeling
operation of the laws of punishment.
The day was lightened for the
court and the attachees by the fact
that there came that way two young
people seeking the services of the
court in the performance of the mar
riage ceremony. The contracting
parties were Fred Hyda of La Platte
and Miss Ruth Berka of South
Omaha. The marriage service was
given very impressively by Judge
Duxbury and the young people at
the close of the ceremony went on
their way rejoicing. The groom in
the marriage is a member of one of
the most prominent families of
southern Sarpy county and well
known and popular in the commun
ity where he has made his home.
The bride is a daughter of one of
the leading residents of the South
Side and a lady of charm who
posesses a very large circle of friends
in her home community.

who
resides at Bethany. Nebraska.
In point of interest ami results,
the evangelist held the greatest
meeting that has been witnessed in
our city in many a day. During the
three weeks of services a total of 02
went forward to express their faith
in Christ as the Son of God. The
church here has been greatly streng
thened numerically and spiritually,
end will doubtless go forward in the
work of the Master with renewed
zeal as a result of the meetings.
Rev. Gardner, during his short
period in our midst made many
friends who would be delighted to
have him return at some time in the
same capacity a an evangelist. As
an evidence of this u compensation i
t i i . . i
was given mm uurm ins uuee
weeks service that totaled $2 4 9.09 in
the form of free-will offerings from
the membership of the local church
and friends. In addition to this, en
tertainment and carfare was provided
him while here and to antl from his
old home. '
The evangelist believes in the pow
er of the old Jerusalem gospel as a
means of winning men to Christ. His
messages were the old. old story of
the Cross of Calvary simply but pow
erfully told. That the love of Jesus
Christ when preached to men in this
twentieth century has the power to
beget spiritual life was well evidenc
ed by the sixty-two who responded
during the twenty-one services, which
was an average of nearly three to
every invitation given. His last mes
sages were more powerful than any
given here. Tuesday evening his mes
sage, whitli "outlined tlr; ' d"triral
points of the church of his faith was
a mighty appeal for church unity.
Here he argued the nee of unity,
the waste of divisions, the causes for
division which he pointed out are
man-made disciplines and creeds and
the remedy, which is the acceptance
of God's book, the Bible, by all be
lievers as being all the discipline
needed. The Christian church, the
Rev. Gardner said, was founded by
Jesus Christ through the Apostle
Peter in A. D. 33. and as such has
continued to the present day. Many
references of Scripture were cited
and many quotations from the Bible
offered by the evangelist in support
of this truth.
On Wednesday evening the evan
gelist spoke to an audience which
packed the building to the doors.
Many stood for more than two hours
during the service which was more
lengthy than usual due to baptismal
services, special music and farewell
messages. Others were unable to
get in at all and had to be turned
away. At the close of the services
of Wednesday evening a very impres
sive sight was furnished when from
all parts of the audience upon re
quest from the evangelist those who
had come forward during the meet
ing came to the front of the church
and stood in group form, about sixty
in all. Then those assembled better
visualized the splendid results that
had been attained.
Tuesday and Wednesday nights
were both great nights as eight came
forward each night and took the
stand for Christ. Special music by
the Weeping Water quartet on Tues
day evening and a duet number by
Mrs. Hal Garnett of this city and her
brother, Mr. Harold Harmon, of
the Weeping Water male quartet
was greatly enjoyed by the assembly -Tuesday
evening. Rev. W. B. F. Robb
and wife of Atwood. Kansas, attend
ed the services while here on a visit
to his son and family, Rev. Walter
R. Robb. pastor of the church.
Mrs. Nelson Gardner and Mrs.
Laird, of Bethany, Nebraska, were in
attendance at Wednesday evening's
services. Rev. Gardner and Mrs.
Gardner sang impressively at this
service, "When I Get to the End of
the Way."
At this service Miss Mathilda
Olson and Mr. Roy Olson of this city
delightfully whistled in duet "The
Humoresque." All through the ser
ies of services fine offerings of spec
ial music were given from night to
night. Delegations from Murray,
Avoca, Weeping Water and Nebraska
City came and brought special music
and inspiration to the services on
several nights.
Sixteen were buried with their
T . r fl in hanHcmal u-atora Wfl npsrln v
evening just before the close of the!
service. When the last one had been
lifted from a watery grave to walk
in newness of life the pastor from
the midst of baptismal waters lifted ,
his hands and the great audience,
arose. From the piano was softly '
wafted the strains of "Nearer My,
God to Thee,' the evangelist stepped ,
forward and prayed in benediction
for God to bless in the present and
in the great forever the ones who
had come forward, the church and
its work, the new made friends and
all of the community. Thus was
concluded a splendid contribution in
service to the welfare of the church
anl community life.
