WOULD HAVE BEEN A WORLD'S
RECORD BUT FOR FLUKE.
WAS A BEAUTIFUL SIGHT TO SEE
The Two Fast Class "A" Teams
Lined up , Ran the Distance at Ter
rific speed , Stanton Leading Eas
lly , but the Coupling Failed.
Stauton firemen have a right to
feel proud of yesterday's record , oven
though no first prize wont to crown
their efforts. What would have been
the making of a world's record was
done by Stanton In the class "A *
event of the straightaway regulation
hose race nt the end of the day. The
time made by Stanton was 32V . The
best time ever yet made In the world
has been 33.
Stanton lost that prize nnd tha
record by the merest accident. In
coupling the hose and nozzle , AI
Marks failed to complete the connec
tion by two threads ,
York nnd Stanton are the only
class "A" teams on the ground. They
had lined up for the race. The gun
cracked 'and they were off. The band
played. The runners ran. The red
men and the black streaked down
the track. The wheels spun and the
limber legs beat out the 250 yards
with rythm that was splendid to a
degree. Not a man missed. Slowly
the Stanton hoys , the champions of
all Nebraska , crept away from the
men of the southland. Gradually the
superior speed of the Elkhorn valley
runners drew a space between the
two fast teams. On , on they came ,
running like mad. The grand stand
was silent. The band nlayed faster.
The teams approached the finish.
The crowd got up on Its toes and
leaned far out to watch the reeling
off of the hose and the miraculous
coupling by the experts.
With a distance between them and
the others that all Stanton can al
ways be proud of , the men In red
crossed the white chalk at the final
jump. The reel clicked and the hose
ran out. Marks grabbed the nozzle ,
tossed the hose at It , the little lock
whirled shut and the stunt was done.
It was done in less time than any
other team on earth has ever done It
before. The crowd cheered , as It
had a right to cheer. It was a graph
ic moment.
Following the Stanton boys , York's
team drew In , reeled out , made the
coupling and the timers' watches
snapped. That was good time , too.
Then the judges made lines on the
couplings to count off the three
whirls. Round and round they un
twisted the brass. The spectators
were breathless again. Suddenly a
reat yell went up from York. They
cheered the other's misfortune.
Stanton had lost the race. The
coupling was incomplete.
But it was a great bit of running ,
for all that.
The battle royal of the tournament
will come tomorrow afternoon when
York nnd Stanton will line up for
the final championship event. Stan
ton won last year and the boys are In
fine shape this season. It is up to
them to win again , for the sake of
northern Nebraska.

SENSATIONALLY ESCAPING FROM
OFFICER PILGER.
DIVES THROUGH HIGH WINDOW
BULLET GOES THROUGH BACK.
EMERGING IN STOMACH.
ONE OF BONESTEEL GRAFTERS
Lewis Aultman , Aged 25 , of Boston ,
Stole a Grip off the Early Train
From Dan Dee of Denver , Is Local
In Fifty Minutes , and Shot
Lewis Aultman , aged 25 , a thief
from Doston , was shot through the
body In Norfolk today by Policeman
Charles Pllger , In attempting to es
cape from the officer. After one of
the most sensational getaways , by
diving through a second story win
dow and lighting on the ground , the
young thug , running , was tsruck In
the back by one of four bullets fired
by Olllcer Pilger.
At noon Dr. P. H. Salter said that
he thought Aultman would die. The
bullet pierced clear through the ab
dominal cavity.
The wounded crook was removed In
a cab to the Norfolk sanitarium 1m
mediately , for operation.
The Story.
Aultman came to Norfolk froir
Donosteel this , morning. Off the trait
he stole a grip belonging to Dan Dee ,
of Denver. Olllcer Pllger was notl
fled of the theft1 and worked on the
case just fifty minutes.
Within less than an hour the thug
was located In a room at the Norfolk
House , a cheap hotel on lower Main
street. The policeman , accompanied
by Mr. Dee , entered the room. The
crook shrank back. Policeman Pll
ger picked up the grip and ordered
Aultman to follow.
"Come with me , " said Pilger.
Sensational Dive.
As the ofllcer turned toward the
door to open the way out of the room ,
the crook , as quick as a cat and more
cleverly , turned to the window like
a circus acrobat , placed his hands
over his head and shot , like a pan
ther , through the window. It was
from the second story that he leaped ,
his frame turning gracefully so that
when he struck the ground he was
right side up with care. Then he
started to run.
The Norfolk house is on the corner
of Norfolk avenue and Second street.
The thug ran toward the river , going
north.
Olllcer Pilger ran through the up
stairs hallway to the porch at the
rear of the hotel. From here he saw
his man escaping. There was no
flight of steps by which to get to the
ground.
Calls "Halt. "
"Halt ! " shouted the policeman.
"Stop , " he cried. And then he fol
lowed his calls with repeated calls to
halt. But still the crook ran fast. He
was disappearing.
The crack of the officer's revolver
rang out sharp and clear. Then an
other and two more. The first three
shots were fired wildly , and pattered
In the dust about the fellow's feet.
But the fleeing grafter did not hesi
tate.s
tate.The
The fourth ball of lead sank Into
his back , at about the center. Still
he ran. For two blocks he continued
In his path. The ofllcer was on the
street following after the shooting.
He ran faster than the Boston crook.
When Aultman saw that he was pur
sued , he turned and cried out.
"Get me a doctor , " said he. "I'm
shot"
On the Table.
When the fellow was at last taken
captive , he was seen to be shot
through the back. In a cab he was
taken to the sanitarium and placed
on the operating table.
The little black mark on the front
of his stomach , copious bleeding from
the back and continued groaning in
trying to breathe , told of his condi
tion.
"It won't take much to get that ball
out , will it ? " he said.
"Not much , " replied the surgeons ,
but you are bleeding freely. "
H'm , " said the thug. "Wouldn't
you expect a man to bleed who was
shot ? "
"It Is the first time I ever took
chloroform , " he said.
"I came down from Bonesteel this
morning , " said Aultman to The News.
"I live In Boston. "
Aultman was operated upon by sur
geons P. H. Salter , F. G. Salter and
A. Bear. *
Stole the Grip.
Dan Dee , the man from whom the
grip was stolen , was on the Bonesteel
train , headed for Denver. At the city
station , Northwestern railroad , he
got off for a few minutes to walk
about and stretch himself. He
climbed back on the train to go to
South Norfolk. He noticed that hla
grip , a fine leather case , was missing
He decided that a Bonesteel thief
had taken it , and made up his mind
to get the fellow for the sake of the
public , If possible.
Dan Dee came back to Norfolk. He
hunted up Ofllcer Pllger. They start
ed In to make the rounds of hotnln.
Mr. Dee had no Idea of the appear
ance of the fellow.
Locate the Thief.
At the Norfolk. House , upstairs ,
they located a room In which a atraug-
er had taken lodging. They knocked
nt thfl door and there was no ro-
spouse. The ofllcer battered , and
there was no answer. Then ho
smashed away , but all was silence.
When the man within realized that
the door would break , he turned the
key. Shrinking back In his bed , ho
declared he had not stolen the grip.
The leather case sat on the floor.
A Pretty Dive.
"It was a beautiful dive , " said Mr.
Dee , who witnessed the feat. "Ho
turned and swung through the win-
low without an effort , like a double
somersaulter , and in a second he wan
; one ,
"I can not say too much , " continued
the man from Denver , "in praise of
the Norfolk ofllcer. Policeman Pllgor
Is certainly a wizard. I had no hope
of locating the man , really , but In
fifty minutes he had nailed him. The
policeman gave "the thug every op
portunity to be arrested peaceably ,
called to him to halt frequently and
then flred alarm shots before ho
aimed. He did what an ofllcer should
do. "
Mr. Dee presented the policeman
with a box of cigars.
"I aimed to get his foot , " said Offi
cer Pllger. "I didn't Intend to get the
thug so high up. We have been fightIng -
Ing against thugs and grafters and
crooks all of the month and this la
the'first shooting. But we won't stand
for any work. We will shoot If It es
sential. "
Norfolk people are glad the thug
was shot. Order will be preserved
In Norfolk at any cost and It Is well
to let these grafters know that they
are not In Bonesteel. If It had to hap
pen , the general opinion Is that It IB
well to have happened early In the
day.
day.Mr.
Mr. Dee says a carload of the graft
ers arrived in Norfolk today from
Bonesteel and that not fifteen are left
there. Police here are taking every
precaution against them.
The grafters have been bluffing the
police considerably , and this Is but
a sign of what will happen to them.
It is trusted that they believe In signs.
The young crook is a very smooth ,
smart looking fellow. He Is smooth
shaven , clean cut and well dressed.
One of the showmen In the streets
says that Aultman was one of the
fiercest pickpockets in Bonesteel and
that he has a partner.
He had broken open the grip and
; ild the papers concealed within , un
derneath the mattress of the bed.
DAIL Y NEWS ELECTRIC SIGN.
Was Complete Work of Gene Huse.
Spells Out.
The Dally News sports a brand new
automatic electric sign which was
swung into being for the first time
last night. It Is a huge affair , almost
as tall as the building , and runs per
pendicularly up and down the corner.
Large letters spell out "Dally News , "
being alive with electric lights. Each
letter flashes up and disappears until
the two words are spelled out Then
the whole sign lights up , disappears
and lights up again before the opera
tion is completed.
The big sign was the idea of Gene
Huse , the eighteen years-old electri
cian of the Institution , and was built ,
designed , erected , wired and made to
work by him.
CAPTURE HOUSEBREAKER
Fellow Wearing Lodge Emblem la
Raked In by the Police.
What is supposed by the police to
be a housebreaker was arrested last
night at midnight by Officer Pllger.
He was found loafing around , killing
time and as he answered the descrip
tion of a man who was seen down on
Third street the night before , he was
chucked into the steel cage till morn
ing.
ing.He
He wore the three links of an Odd
Fellow's badge , and tried to work it
In appealing for mercy. There are
so many of these grafters In the
country with lodge emblems' on their
lapels , that the police were leary of
that game.
