WHI French Badly Hurt While engaged in moving the Betts building from the street, last Satur day, and when near the proposed lo cation of the building on the Ohlsen lots in the south part of town Will French came near losing his life. He was driving one 6f the teams engaged in drawing the puilding, when the double-tree suddenly broke, striking him about half between the knees and groin throwing him some thirty feet. Had the blow been a few inches higher, or had he been further away from the doubletrees, the chances are that his life would have paid the forfeit. As it is he is laid up at home with his legs black as ink from knees to hip and in much pain. Un less complioations set In, he will likely recover speedily. It was a narrow escape. Christmas Doings Christmas in Loup City and Sher man county, so far as we can learn, was one of the most gladsome of any for the past number of years. All over the city were innumerable pri vate Christmas trees, while the churches presented fine programs and most interesting events. We have not room to enter into detail the programs given by the churches, nor the various social events of the day and night, which, while we might enumerate a number, we could not learn of only in part, hence pass them up with the remark that there wer^ more and pleasanter events of the nature than heretofore had in our city and the county roundabout.

Holman charged with • wrongfully using $866 of Loup City Mill & Light Co’s money—Agent of Company At Ansley IS PENITENTIARY OFFENSE The lure of getting rich quick was too great to be resisted by another of the young men of this county in the person of Ross J. Holman of Ansley. Just what the man himself thinks or what his excuse for his actions may be, is unknown, however, he is in ful some sort of a time in the di>tr.ci court as a warrant has been issued for his apprehension. The warrant was issued on the complaint of ihe Loup City Mill and Light Cnnprny of Loup City. The agent of that company was to Broken Bow the first of the week and stated that the trouble was the re sult of Holman acting as the agent of the company in handling feed and mill stuff. The agent alleged that the other had received goods from them amount of $886 for which he had made no returns to the company at all and that he had thus embez zled that amount of money which belonged to the company. Also it is stated that Holman had made no denial of the money he had spent but had simply replied when asked what he had done with the money that lie had spent part of it to pay the expense of erecting his new house and that he did not know what had become of the rest of the money. The offense is a serious one and if proven as charged will result in the sending of the accused to the pen itentiary for a term of years the num ber of which is in the discretion of the court. Deputy Sheriff C. Penn went to Ansley Tuesday and arrested the man. He promised Mr. Penn that he would appear in Broken Bow Wed nesday tand that officer returned Tuesday night. Holman came up to to this city Wednesday and asked that his hearing be continued for 30 days which request was granted. He has employed Judge Dean as his attorney and expects to fight the case.—Custer County Republican.
