Huntington Considers Boone County Has Excellent Prospects. [ Vom Tuesday' * Dally , E. M. Huutiugton has ret annul from i trip across the country , having been uspoctiug his farming property and uporvising the threshing of his grain irops. Ho drove into Boouo county , tluiost to Albion , and is satisfied that ho farmers throughout this part of the itato wore never in better condition. The small grain crop is good and the corn crop is much bettor than expected , la is of the opinion that the corn in the portion of Boouo county inspected will average 20 bushels to the aero aud some of it will produce t0 ! hnshola and better. Wheat will yield from eight to 17 bushels per acre aud oats will average about 150 bushels. The country is roll ing aud the surface of the soil is largely clay , with a good subsoil. The corn Holds have a bright green color and Quo argo cars have set on. In one field ex- ainiuod particularly the stalks are about eight foot high and promise ouo of the best yields in several years. Mr. Huutiugton is of the opinion that the farmers are in better shape than over before. They will have fair crops aud the prices promise to bo high. They fool good over the prospects aud are gratified that their homo is in Nebraska. They had uioro rain there thau here during the summer mouths and had about the same amount of rain during Juno. While he was there a quarter section of medium land sold for f 1,800. The property had been purchased about five years ago at $ 12 30 per acre. Since that time | 700 in improvements had boon put on aud the owner about doubled his money , besides receiving the income frbui the farm during the live years. AVluit Mmll We llttve for Dentort ?

I'loiu HMnrdny'H Dally K 1C Adams has resigned his position as train dispatcher for the Norfolk divi sion of the F. K. ( fc M. V. on account of ill health and will take his last "trick" tonight. Ho will employ some time in which to rest and recuperate , after which ho expects to take up duties dis tinct from railroad work. Ho has been in the railroad sorvlco for almost 111 years and retires with honor , and with the regret of his asso ciates that ho has quit the service. Ho served the Northwestern for 21 years and pnrhaps his to the longest Horvico of any man employed on the system in Ne braska. For 14 years helms worked in his state , 12 years of .that time being pent in Norfolk. With the exception of a few short intervals ho 1ms been on light duty and ho now proposes to on- oy living in the day time aud sleeping lights for awhile , just for the novelty of the thing. His night work has been i strain on his constitution and it is jousidered that ho has doun finely in lolding out as long as ho has. His first Introduction to railroad work was when , as a boy of 1C , he carried the nail to and from the postofllco and lopot , working for his father who was ) ostmastor. When thus employed he isod nis spare time in learning the Morse telegraph system. At that time everyone road "paper" and ho was among the first to learn to road by sound , boiug considered something of a prodigy for that accomplishment. The machines made the same sound as now , but likewise indented the dots and lashes on a atrip of paper run through from a roll. The operators secured this strip of paper after the message was do iverod and interpreted it at their lei Hiiro. Hiiro.Tho The railway ongiues then burned wood exclusively and ouo of the duties of the crow , from the conductor to the least of the braklos , was to got off at a station and load enough wood to haul the traiu to the next stop. It took about as long those days to stop the train as it did to make the run between stations , the brakes being of the old fashioned kind that required the entire crew to manipulate. The rails were 18 feet long aud wore joined in "bootlegs , " the ends flopping up and dowu whenever a traiu passed over thorn and making a racket that could bo heard a loug ways off. The entire railroad business was carried on then much differently than now aud iu the light of modern improve ments it was slow , cumbersome am primitive. Mr. Adams' success as a railroad man has been largely due to his integrity and attention to duty. Ho has received some very flattering testimonials regard ing his service from leading railway olliclals of the country and behoves that he can return to railroad duty at any time and will be gladly received. Since it has become known that ho would re sign he has received some most flatter ing offers from several sources , but has not yet determined on his future occu pation. IIo will probably continue to reside in Norfolk , hoping that whatever business ho engages in will admit of his making this his homo. NEW TRAIN SERVICE.

Miller , General Passenger Agent , Chicago , 111 It Was Norfolk's Up to the Ninth Inning , VIRITORS THEN TOOK II SCORES Locals Pounded Three Omaha Pitch ers Out of the Box , But Steclc Held Through the Game and Was Found In the Ninth. From Thursday' * Daily : With whirling clouds of dnst chasing each other around the diamond aud a disagreeable south wind to render fieldwork - work uncertain , the Omaha Originals took the first game of their series with Norfolk , yesterday afternoon. The game belonged to the home team until the ninth inning by a safe score of 13 tel l > . At that point however , through three singles , throe doubles , a homo run , three bases on balls and a costly error , the visitors pounded out 11 scores aud won the gamo. Such an inning ia al most unheard of on the diamond , and the surprise of the home men did not exceed that of their victorious opponents. It was just ouo of those things that sometimes happens aud is unavoidable. The locals thought they had the game cinched aud you couldn't have found a bet against them with odds of fiO to ouo. But the unlucky 13 got them in the end. They were np against the irouy of fate and the irony won out. But the boys put up as snappy a game for eight innings as one could wish to see. Daring that time the visitors got but eight hits aud five runs and ten men were struck out by Steele , while the locals landed on the leather for 14 safe ones aud crossed the plate for a baker's dozen. For eight straight innings Steelo's twirling and his head work were fast aud clover. But throwing against such a terrific wind was not an easy matter , and ho finally lost his speed. When it is considered that the Originals wore compelled to change pitchers four times , it may be readily seen that the wonder lies not in the fact that Steele's arm gave out , but that it lasted as loug as it did. did.The The visitors started things with two runs in the first. The locals "saw them and went 'em one better. " The second saw no scores but a little excitement. Lynch got a single and O'Keafe was up. He bunted to short stop and started to nm , but tripped on the base and fell upon ] his bat , cutting his lip badly. When he was brought "to" ho had been put out in a double play. Later ho fainted and Tracy took his place. In the third Norfolk took four runs and were retired by Buckliu's poor judge inont in running to second. Seven scores having been made off McElvain , ho was substituted in the fourth by Welch. Four hits aud six runs were made in this inning. Two bases 01 : balls scored Omaha iu the fifth , a bac muff by Bucklou gave them ono in the sixth , and a couple of well placed hits made another in the seventh. Things looked so bad by this time that in the eighth Welch was taken out in order to save his arm for today , and Whitney a fielder who had never pitched in hi life substituted. They hauded the locals a goose egg. with one hit. By this time with the score 13 to five aud ono more bat apiece , it looked like the big show was all over. But not yet The ninth was the fatal inning. The first man np took a double. The nex one got a free ride and the third liuec oat for two ba3es , scoring the first Then Welch fanned and Jellen came np Two men wore on bases and the fielders backed np , at Stoolo's signal. But they didn't back far enough to get the bal and three men came in on the horn run. Another single and a base on balls put two men on bases. Tracy struck a grounder to short , but Johnson let it pass between his feet aud tw men scored. If this ball had been fielded correctly the game would hav still been Norfolk's. Another pass t first , three singles and a double kept th merry-go-round moving before two out could stop the procession , and as it was 11 Bcores were niado. During thi scene hundreds of dollars which ha been rolling toward the pockets of loca supporters , changed cars and droppe into the hands of Omaha backers. * good sized crowd saw the game an rooted loyally. Manager Roberts felt sick to see th game won so fairly , and lost at the las instant. Ho retires , however , with th satisfaction of having put together a team that has won eight straight games , aud can beat anything in the state. The Originals are a fine appearing lot of men tall , muscular and clean cut and can play good ball , winning or losing. The story ia as follows : OMAHA. AH. n. n. o A. E.
