FUENISH HEAL ENTERTAINMENT
The musical and entertaining fea
tures of Friday of the Korn Karnival

several high class features which
were presented at the platform at
5th and Main streets.
The Lewiston-Xchawka band, com
posed of the talented young people
of eastern Cass county, was on the
program In. both the afternoon and
evening and gave a program of more
than usual interest. This band has
improved wonderfully and the work
of its members i3 such as to give
premise of a very brilliant future for
the ycung people.
The "Three Musketeers" of Ne
hawka, under the dirsction of Tom
Mason, furnished the audience with
several clever musical numbers on
the guitar, violin and banjo, which
were much enjoyed.
The "Two Black Crow3," W. A.
Bennett and Raymond Cook, furnish
ed a laughing skit for the large crowd
and for several minutes kept them
In a roar of laughter.
Ross Nichols of Louisville, saxen
phone artist, wa3 presented In sev
eral of his alvrays enjoyable selec
tions and Miss Mildred Schoemaker
of Nehawka also was heard in a
splendid vocal selection. She was ac
companied by Glen Rhodes" on the
guitar.
Miss Anna Rauth of Manley was
presented in two vocal selections,
"Would You Might Answer Me," by
Smith and "Ho My Piper" by Curran.
Miss Rauth has a beautiful voice and
her rendition of the members was a
treat to the music lovers. Miss
Rauth was accompanied at the piano
by George Rau of Manley and who,
with Mis3 Rauth gave a piano duet
at the close of ths vocal numbers.
FEDERALS HOLD SAO PAULO
Rio De Janeiro. Reports from the
south said a political group friendly
to the federal government had taken
charge of the state of Sao Paulo,
and deputized a military leader to
assume command until normal con
ditions were restored. Thi3 develop
ment followed upon a breakdown in
negotiations between the rebel gen
eral, Bartolo Klinger, and the fed
eral chieftain, General Monteiro.
Meanwhile federal troops were re
suming their drive into the southern
state, apparently meeting little resistance.

OLD TIME FIREMEN
Thursday afternoon the groups of
the old time residents here for Home
coming, had a real reminder of the
days of long ago furnished by several
of the old time firemen. At 4 o'clock
the whistle at the shops sounded the
once familiar blast3 of the fire alarm,
which in the year3 past was the
method of telling the world that
there was a fire raging in some sec
tion of the city. As the whistle died
down the fire truck appeared and
preceding one of the man drawn
hose carts that were used for so many
years. The veterans ranging in age
from 76 down, handled the cart with
all of the old time action, altho the
speed was not as great as in the
late eighties and early nineties. The
hose cart used was the one known
as the Neville cart, named in honor
of the Hon. William Neville, and
with his crew was winner cf the'Btate
fire truck race In 1891. The state
tournament being held in Platts
mouth on that occasion. In the group
demonstrating the cart Thursday
were W. C. Tippens, William
Schmidtmann, Sr., Hans Selvers,
George B. Mann, Jack Ledgway, Ted
Clifford; Louis Reinackle,' Phil Har
rison. Val Burkle.
