ALLEDGED FIRE BUG CAPTURED
WATK.t Of FAHWELL AKKESIBII
Last Tuesday about 1 1 o’clock
Sheriff Edward Sn}derof Sherman
county was called to Farwell by
telephone to come and get the man
Robert Watka, charged with firing
the grain elevators at Ashton which
resulted in the total distraction of
one and some damage to the other.
Mr. Snyder at once went to Farwell
and returned with his prisoner at
4 o’clock p. m. and at once placed
him iD the county jail. His cap
ture was due to the continued effort
of detective Malone of Lincoln who
was hot on hi§ trail Irom the begin
UIUg.
It seems that after the elevators
were fired, which was discovered
about 11 o'clock, a telegram was
sent to the neighboring town of Far
well, about ten miles distance, to
learn if Watka was at home, as he
had been suspected of having set
fire to the two elevators at Warsaw
and Farwell which burned some
months ago. Upon investigation
if. was learned that Watha was not
at home and watchers were stationed
at his residence and along the road
towards Ashton. About 1:30 a m
he was seen driving a horse and
buggy along the road indicated.
He went straight to his residence
uDd a diligent watch was kept up
till morning when the sheriff from
Howard county appeared on the
scene. Watha was seen the next
morning to leave the premises and
from some cause or other was allow
ed to disappear down a draw unmo
lested, thus causing an exciting
chase of four days duration, by the
detective force, who arrived with
blood hounds on the scene as quick
ly as possible. The hounds were
not very successful in locating the
fugative, but the detectives kept
up the chase and captured him at
the home of his father in-law. in
Howard county, four miles north
of Boelus and about 12 miles from
Farwell.
Watka offered but little resistance
although it is stated that he had
fully determined to fill the olllcers
eyes with red pepper in case they
ventured close enough.
The prisoner was brought into
county court last Tuesday evening
and upon motion by H. M. Mathew,
his local attorney the case was pos
poned to Wednesday at 4 p m, to
give the accused time to gel his
attorney, W. H. Thompson of Grand
Island here. Mr. Thompson arrived
here on the noon train Wednesday
and the prisoner was again brought
before Judge Angier and pled not
guilty. Oa motion the peliminary
nearing was again posponed to
Thursday Nov. 20 at 2 p. m., foi
the purpose of giving ample time to
procure evidence. The court fixeri
the bail at $5,000. which the defend
ant promptly furnished.
YELLOWSTONE PARK TRAVEL
Yellowstone National Park trave
during the season recently close*
was exceeded in numbers ouly by
the season of 1897. The park trans
portation company carried 4,57(
persons through the park dutin*
1902—fifty three less than were cur
ried in the banner year of 1897. Tlx
park hotel company furnished ae
commodations to 6,340 persons, o
whom 4,929 entered the park via tlx
Northern Pacific-Burlington gateway
while 1,411 entered by way of Mo
nida. August saw the largest num
bar of tourists. During that montl
2,375 were cared for at the hotels.
A further idea of the success o
the season in Yellowstone Park eai
be gained from the fact that it r*
quired 593 horses, 175 men and 17
vehicles to handle the Irallic in th
park. Feed for the horses consiste*
of 1,000 tons of hay and 1,000,00
pounds of oats. These figures ar
taken from the reports just tiled with
the United Slates government.
David Mercer has been defeated
aud Edward Rosewater triumphs
over his defeat. We believe that
we voice the .sentiments of the great
mass of the republicans of the slate
when we say that we are sorry that
it is so, because Mr. Mercer was one
of the brightest men we had in con
gress. 'Ihe Bee’s action in the
matter is denounced b\ the conser
vative republicans all over the state.
But be that us it may, it is always
poor policy to force a nomination
upon a party with an opposing
element, even though it would seem
that ihe <bjections raised were
groundless. It was not necessary
for the republicans of the second
district to nominate Mercer, or foi
that matter, any of Rosewaters’ pets,
as there was plenty of good timber
to select from. Had a man been
chosen who would have been the
unanimous choice of the republicans
of that congressional district he
could have been an easv winner. The
propper thing to do in such cases
is to disregard the wishes of either
faction and unite on a candidate
that can lie endorsed by the whole
party.
DUTIES OF TEACHERS.
Only the sincere and honest and
generous-hearted should dare teach
anything. The moment a man an
nounces himself as a leather ia an\
department of life, ho dictates the
Idea of a certain superiority. It
should be bis aim to live up to that
idea. It is said of a man physically,
that his constitution is only as stroug
as tlie weakest part of his body; it is
said of a country that its civilization
can only be estimated by its most
uncivilized contingency. The same
estimate must be made of character.

A tremendous electrical display
illuminated the heavens over this
city on Saturday night. While the
storm was at its height tlierc whs a
crash of thunder that seemed to
shake the very earth and woke the
inhabitants in ail parts of trie city.
Every one thought that his bouse
had been struck. The next morning
it was discovered that the bolt had
struck a tree in Ike Bnnnum’s front
yard at Fourth and McL'ine streets.
Having shattered the tree, the current
passed into the ground, lifted the
sidewalk and passed into a nix-inch
water main, which hurst like a paper
tube, leaving what looked like a
spring bubbling up out of the ground.
