On a recent day the sugar factory pu
450 tons of beets through the initia
processes of turning them into sugar
It was a fine run , and , if not a recort
breaker , at least crowded the record
very closely. The campaign is pro
gressiug finely along all lines and premises
isos to be moro than usually snccessfn
to the factory management , and satis
factory to the farmers who are wel
pleased with the generous tonnage pro
dnced during the past season.
The doctors are not exactly fiudinj
fault with the situation , claiming to
have all the work they care to do , bu
they have discovered that this is an un
usually healthy fall , even in healthy
Nebraska. It is certain that the people
appreciate the situation , whether the
true conditions have been noted by
them or not. Nearly everyone is feel
ing good , eating three square meals a
day and adding to their avoirdupois
It is a desirable condition and those
who best realize it are standing up for
Nebraska , and particularly Norfolk am
vioiulty , almost constantly.
John Smith whom the court deslg
nates as junior , having had one John
Smith earlier in the month was before
Police Judge Hayes this morning to
nswor to charge of dlsordprly can
not and was given the usual fine for
noli cases made and provided. John
vas at the Auditorium lost night and
its funny Bpot was struck BO hard by
ho antics of "Suagga" and his boy
Grimes" that ho couldn't stop laugh-
ug. Ho laughed BO loud and BO long
hat there v os danger of jarring the
mlcony down. His neighbors wanted
lira to stop and the ushers forbade him
ho right to laugh nil the time : oven
'Grimes" grow sober , bnt ho couldn't
ot up. Fiii In ally the officers appeared
and led him gently bnt firmly from the
Boone and ho missed n number of good
angliB by not being able to harness his
risibilities at the proper tiino. The
court who had soon funny plays him
self , decided that his broach of the
loaco was not largo and lot htm off
with a light fine and n promise to leuvo
the city.
Hoyt's "Bunch of Keys" was pre
sented to a full house at the Auditorium
ast night by Gus. Bothnor's company ,
and perhaps there was moro enjoyment
and satisfaction on the part of the people
attending than on the occasion of any
previous farce-comedy presented since
the Auditorium was opened. The
scenery and stage arrangement was ap
proprlato and iutorostiugaud the special
ties were entertaining , in foot several
of the artists wore enthusiastically recalled
called several times. There was no
plot , and but a slight thread of connec
tiou botwoou incidents was attempted
to hold the interest of the auditors.
There were no sticks iu the cast , bnt
those who assumed the characters of
" " "Grimes" and " "
"Teddy , "Snags" wore
particularly deserving of mention and
were favorites with the audience. The
snap with which the scheme of the
production was carried through was a
feature of the "Grimes"
company , es
pecially oxcercising unwonted energy
A farce comedy would scarcely bo a
farce comedy without suggestiveness
but Manager Bothner was successful in
toning this feature down to a minimum.
It is an old production , bnt new to most
people of Norfolk , and therefore well
appreciated. The next ; attraction will
be the " Prince"
"Beggar Opera company
on Monday night , followed by n special
Thanksgiving attraction Thursday
night , "Elmdale Farm , " presented by a
company of 25 people.

part , and played his own accompauia-

soap and water , and of course , drank

the frames bright and glistening , she
remarked : "And so whibkey cleaned
those frames ? " "Yes" said one of the
men , "it was whiskey that did it. "
"And just to think , " remarked the
woman , "I came very near throwing
that whiskey away. I bathed poor
Fide with it before ho died , yon know. "

The Merrill twins were in Norfolk
vbout throe weeks ago , appearing in the
Baptist church three evenings. They
were pastors of the Gospel Ship church
of Chicago and had been making a tour
of Nebraska. They carried a flue store-

Last night was the regular mooting
light of Norfolk ledge No. 97 , A. O. U.
W. , and after the busineHs of the moot-
ng was transacted the members decided
that It was about the right kind of an
evening to enjoy a good oyster stow and
accordingly took the necessary stops
ownrd attaining such a treat and ono
nf the restaurants did the rest. There
were several Workmen from other
edges in attendance and the oyster
supper was much enjoyed by all pres
ent at the meeting.
Morning lodge No. 20 , Knights of
Pythias , elected oilicers at the regular
meeting of tbo order held last night.
The following were chosen to servo the
ledge iu the several capacities during
the ensuing term : Charles Madsen , 0.
0. ; Frank Sommors , V. O. ; H. J.
Oaulfiold , prelate ; L. L. Rembe , M , W. ;
John Friday , M. E. ; George E. Chris-
toph , M. F. ; Julius Hnlff , K. of R.
and S. After the business of the meet
ing had been transacted the members
enjoyed an oyster supper at ono of
the restaurants.
If Thanksgiving was intended for
anything , it is for the purpose of return *
ing thanks to Him who.bestowB all good
and desirable gifts. The feasting and
enjoyments of the day are merely minor
considerations and perhaps those origin
ating the holiday had little thought for
that sort of observance , anyway people
can well afford to devote an hour or
two in praise and thanksgiving. The
union services at the Methodist church
and the services in other churches nf
ford all an ample opportunity for this
sort of observance and such meetings
should bo largely attended.
The "Beggar Prince" comio opera
company presented "Giolo-Girofla ( ,

small audience at the Auditorium last
evening , closing their engagement in
this city , and left this morning for
Schnyler. The company did not receive
coivo the patronage from thn people of
Norolk they deserved. The company
is composed of good actors and they
did their best to entertain the people
who patronized the entertainments
given. Their voices are fiuo and the
singing delighted all who heard it.
The next attraction will be "Elmdalo
Farm , " to bo presented tomorrow night
by a oompruy of 25 people , with their
own bund and orchestra.
