T1IH NOHKOUC NKWS : I'MUDAY ' nKCIOMlWH 1(1 ( IflO-l NORFOLK WILL VERY SOON HAVE AN ADDITIONAL INDUSTRY. TAKES SUGAR FACTORY'S PLACE A Distillery , A Glucose Plant and a Brewery arc All Anxious to Come to Norfolk Building , Lands and Boilers Donated to Norfolk. Norfolk will probably very BOOH got n big now Industry , which will run twelve months In the year nnil glvo employment to a largo number of men. The now Industry , a manufac turing Interest , will likely substitute the prcHont sugar factory , whoso cam paign Is Just now being brought to a close. It Is not at all Improbable that the machinery of the sugar factory will soon bo removed from the plant at tliis place to Lanmr , Col , , whore anew now plant will bo erected. The building , boilers and real cs- tate of the factory , which' Includes about 2-10 acres of land , will bo left and given to the Norfolk people who donated $150,000 for the location of the factory hero about fourteen years ago. ago.The reason for removing the fac tory's machinery Is given by the American Hoot Sugar company to bean an Insufllcicnt acreage of beets In the territory contiguous to the factory hero , to warrant further operating of the factory. The reason given by the farmers for not raising more boots Is that they find It to their advantage to raise oth er crops which are less work. New Industry Will Come. With the big , valuable building and the mammoth tract of flno land , to gether with the boilers In the plant , Norfolk may rest assured that not a great many hours will pass without the looming up of a prospective Indus try which will take the place of the factory In this community. A number of expert scientific men have been In Norfolk for some time , measuring the bolts and wheels at the factory , preparing to make plans for the new factory In Colorado. The present campaign of the factory will end at some time , probably , be tween Saturday night and Monday morning. The Norfolk Commercial club has already received propositions from a number of well backed and advantage ous firms. They have received offers of a distillery , brewery , glucose fac tory and several other concerns. The club will weigh all propositions very carefully and cautiously , and. see to it that in the end that plant which Is accepted , shall bo a benefit to this city and to northern Nebraska as well.

A young man named Redding , who aided the jailbreakor In getting away , was arrested at Clearwater - water last night , confessed his com plicity in the escape and Is In jail. Hundreds of Nollgh citizens turned out when the news of the jailbrcaklng became known , and quick pursuit was effected. Failing to find the victim of their manhunt , the posse , armed to the teeth , surrounded his homo three miles away and remained on guard all night long. Pursuing Posse Appears. After ho left town , Donner secured a ride from Redding. For three miles the young man drove along the high way with his prisoner companion. Suddenly the pursuing posse of armed men appeared In the distance , beating the dust at a rapid rate , and , fearing the capture which stared him In the back , Donner jumped out of the wag on , ran Into a cornfield and succeeded In concealing himself from the oncom ing mob of Infuriated men. Art dark ho had not been caught and the posse established a military guard about the house , with a strong resolu tion to shoot , if necessary to capture , on sight. All points In this vicinity wcro noti fied by telephone to bo on a constant lookout for the escaped Jailbird. Redding , when approached , at first denied having anything to do with the escape. Later , last night , ho broke down and confessed his deliberate part In it. Ho at first said ho had forged the river , when he really had not at all. Donner Thrice Convicted. Donncr has been thrco times con victed. Ho was arrested at Oakdalo two years ago , was convicted soon af ter and the supreme court ordered anew now trial. Again the same perfor mance took place. And now , the third time.ho was Just convicted Thursday and was awaiting sentence. . INDICATIONS POINT TO ABOUND. ING MERRY CHRISTMAS.

Throughout the metropolitan ! ! Indications point to an abounding Merry Christmas. The good humored , Jostling throngs In the streets and avenues glvo little sign of any necessity to stint In their pur chases. In many of the best shops the buying Is already at Hood tide , though Christmas Is still two weeks off. None soonis too poor to purchase some ex pression of good will. In front of the great Sixth avenue and Broadway shops whore the millionaires trade carriages block the way. In the cheaper quarters pedestrians swarm so thickly that It seems at times as If the muss would bo unable to disen tangle Itself. Ono week ago the familiar pots and tripods of the Salvation Army wore placed at the busy slroot corners and during the week the pots have boiled merrily. In the llniiiiclnl dlslilct H lias boon no uncommon night to son well known bankers and brokers stay their stops long enough to shove a crisp bill of largo denomination through the wire covering' of the puts. In other quarters the pots have been kept jingling with the pennlos and nickles dropped In by poorer but equally generous givers. AH a result of these and other contributions the army's Christmas dinner parties prom ise to bo a grout success. 200 Tables Laid. Commissioner Eva Booth , who hns just assumed charge at the general headquarters of the Salvation Army , in Fourteenth street , states that fully UHO.OOO men , women and children will obtain their Christinas cheer tills year through the efforts of that organiza tion in the United States. In this city the Grand Central palnco has boon leased for the big dinner , for which about 200 tables arc to bo laid. The work of arranging the celebration In the city Is divided Into two divisions , one for collecting funds and supplies , and the other for distributing the good things after they are In hand. Each division Is organized systematically , with its head olilcers and sub-ollicers , each having his particular duties mapped out for him beforehand. . The collectors of supplies are to lay in 2,000 pounds of coffee , 5,000 loaves of bread , 1,800 pounds of sugar , and thousands of turkeys and chickens , not to mention a barrel or so of cratv berry sauce and proportionate quail' titles of the other things that go to make up the proper sort of Christina * feast. Besides the dinner , thcro comes within the scope of the serving divi sion's duties the no less important distribution of Christmas baskets , About live thousand of these are to bo made ready , filled with turkey , bread , and all the other eatables In ev idence nt the dinner. During Christ mas morning the baskets will bo dis tributed to poor people of every sec tion of the city.

There Is to bo no artificial limit on the hunger of the Salvation Army't guests. Those who go to the dlnnci may cat just as long and ujst as rav enously as they like. If they want five cups of coffee and three plates ol turkey , they will bo satisfied. Aftoi the tables have been set the waiting multitude will march to their seats al a given signal , and the feast will he on. Clad In white aprons , the armj men and women who have been selected lected to wait on the tables will serve the steaming turkey and coffee , am ! then the sweets , as fast as. the guestf demand new portions. The arrange ments are so systematic , It Is said thai no matter how fast or how hungry the feasters may bo they will not have tc wait more than a few seconds betweer helpings. Though the Salvation Army dlnnei is the largest of Its kind. It Is not the only free spread to which the homeless less and unfortunate of Now York arc treated at Christmas time. Free dinners nors to many hundreds are furnisher annually by the Bowery mission urn numerous other missions and clmrltj organisations and by churches of a ! denominations. FATHER VAUGHAN'S LECTURE.
