the new car from some Lincoln deal
ers, and sure is well pleased with
the new boat.
Hunted at Coleridge
On Sunday a crowd of hunters from
this vicinity were at Coleridge, where
they say the pheasants are very plen
tiful, much more so a few days ago,
however, than they are now, for each
of the many hunters there bagged
the limit. Those who made up the
crowd from here included James Fitz
patrick. Dr. J. L. Barritt and his
son. Will Barrett, Earl Merritt and
Orville Hathaway, who proved one of
the best shots in the bunch and got
his full quota, while the others just
about made the grade. By the end
of the ten day open season they say
the pheasants, already wild and shy,
will be mighty hard to round up and
hunters may experience disappoint
ment. Happened Along in Time
One of the workers on a farm not
a thousand miles from Union was in
town last Sunday and got too much
of the liquid that cheers, becoming
very hilarious. When complaint was
made of his condition, he defied the
authorities when they extended invi
tation to take apartments with the
city, and had to be coerced. While
the discussion was at its height, the
deputy sheriff happened along and
he quickly induced the young man to
wear a pair of his wristlets and ac
company him to Plattsmouth, where
he remained over night and Monday
morning paid the bill of fare amount
ing to about thirteen dollars in all
and returned to the farm to resume
the humdrum life of picking corn.

END OF THE DREAM
When my ship comes In all
laden with gold.
And with gems and jewels '
rare,
I'll hie me to the galleon's
hold
To revel in treasure there.
I'll delve in the wealth from
golden climes,
And lave my arms in its
stores
Of riches from far Golconda's
mines
Of diamonds and rubies galore.
I'll build me a castle, and draw-
' bridge, and moat,
With donjon and treasure
vaults deep;
And I'll move my coffers ashore
from the boat
To the fortress's stronghold
and keep.
With warders, and vassels, and
seneschals bold
To defend and protect it for
aye;
And I'll spend a life like a
baron of old,
In the vogue of a long past
day.
My guest3, ever welcome within
its walls,
Will be treated in royal style;
And feasting and music will
fill its halls
As gayety reigns the while.
Meanwhile, I'm waiting in anx
ious fear
For word from my ship over
sea. I fear me, somehow, as the
time draws near,
That the boat ain't a-coming
to me.
Yet a fellow can't shut out
illusory dreams,
Nor envisioned rich castles in
air;
But must take the goods in our
laps that it seems
The gods in their wisdom placed
there.
So I'll plug along in the same
old way
That I've done for lo, many a
year.
Accepting decrees of stern fate
day by day.
With no rude disillusion to
fear. "K"
CLOSE RELIEF OFFICE
The office for relief that has been
maintained at the ?ourt house with
Mrs. C. A. Rosencran3, county proba
tion officer, in charg, has been closed
for the present at least. This is due
to the enlargement' of the public
works program of the state and fed
eral government in the grading and
paving work and the river work near
here. There has been 125 names tak
en off the relief roll in the past few
weeks. A total of some 551 men reg
istered for work have been assigned
since the public works program open
ed up and which is'lbr the present at
least relieving the necessity for other
lines of aid.
There s.re a number of relief ca?e3
that will of necessity have to be cared
for in the case of aged, women and
indigents and these will be handled
direct by the county commissioners.
The public works program in this
section ct least is justifying itself in
the restoration of the earning power
of several hundred and the hope of a
more permanent future when the
present crisis ha3 rolled away.
PAYS DIVIDEND
The state banking department at
Lincoln has announced that there
will be the first dividend payment of
20 per cent to the depositors of the
Bank of Commerce of Louisville. The
amount that will be paid out is esti
mated at $30,248. The bank has been
closed since the bank holiday in
March when it was taken over by
the state department.
WILL SERVE SUPPER
The ladies of the'U. P. church of
Murray will serve a supper Thurs
day, November 2nd, starting at 5:30
p. m. Adults 35c, children 20c. Ev
erybody welcome. d&w

TAX RACKET IN OMAHA
Sunday's World-Herald tel's of a
tax racket that has been worked in
Omaha, whereby a few favored buy
ers have been gobbling up tax titles
to property at prices that scarcely
pay the costs cf publishing the no
tices. The foreclosures were worked
under the old savenger law, similar
to that employed here some twenty
years ago under the regime of the
late Her.ry Gering, as mayor, when
hundreds cf properties were gotten
back on the tax list, only in the Om
aha instance no effost has been made
to give publicity to the sales and se
cure a fair price for the properties,
and a clique of a half dozen or so
bidders have been gobbling them up
for little of nothing, in some instances
retrieving them for the delinquent
owners at a stated fee, plus the
amount of the bid.
The sales as worked in Omaha are
distinctly a racket and except for an
"outsider" or two edging in to bid,
at no time were the bids running over
5 or 10 on properties worth into
the thousands. Of course the owner
has a two year redemption period, but
as many of the properties are those
of owners who will never be able to
meet the tax, the bidders will secure
title at the end of that time for a
mere pittance.
