OLD HERMIT IS GOING INSANE "Uncle Johnny , " Who Has Lived All Alone at the Yellow Banks Ever Since the Oldest Inhabitant Can Re member , Is Losing His Reason. [ From Saturdny'n Dally. ] Norfolk people , and those living In Plorce , Meadow Grove , Battle Crook , Madison and other towns near the Yellow Banks , who enjoy the scenic beauty of that wooded spot llt'teon miles northwest of here and who have , In the past , spent many a day and week camping there under the eye of the monstrous bluffs and on the brink of the Elkhorn river , are to bo made the benellclarlcs of a change which will take place there before another summer rolls around. For the express purpose of making the grounds more dollghtful for the campers , the owners of the Yellow Banks arc now planning to make extensive changes and to adopt now rules which will render the resort less of a public place than It has been In the past. The fence which now shuts off the pasture south of the main road , be yond the springs that furnish drinking water , Is to bo moved several rods further back , so that campers heroaf- , or will bo allowed to pitch their tents some distance further south than In the past. A rule will bo made , too , lint no campers will bo allowed on the ) lace who are not friends of the owner > f the ground , and all carousing , which ; ho owners are complaining of because of actions of some strangers who have nrrlved thcro from other places than Norfolk , will bo eliminated. Johnny , the Hermit , Going Insane. Everybody who has over been at the Yellow Banks , has scon "Undo John ny , the hermit. " Everybody in this neighborhood , who has been at the place , has heard of this queer old character. And those who have boon visiting the Banks for years and years will regret to learn that Undo Johnny shows signs of losing his mind. In fact ho Is believed by many to have already become Insane as a result of the lonely life that ho has been living out there during the past quarter century tury or more. There is a mystery wrapped up In the life of Undo Johnny. Nobody seems to know the truth of his story , but there Is a love affair at the bottom of It somewhere , it Is declared b > those who have long known the old man. "Undo Johnny" is a little , dried up old man who has lived a hermit's life at the Yellow Banks ever since any one can remember. He fought In the famous battle of Battle Creek , against the Indians , fifty years ago. Ho has always lived all alone , and the time was when he was very bashful about even talking to a woman. Ills mind Is In a rambling condition. TWO MEN , SIX DAYS , ONE TROUT Dr. C. S. Parker and J. S. Mathewson Had "Rare" Sport. One lone trout rewarded the seven days of effort expended by Storrs Mathowson and Dr. C. S. Parker , who returned at noon- from Long Pine. Ex pecting to enjoy a week of rare sport , they found that heavy rains had so swollen the Long Pine creek that trout fishing was out of the question. From the ravines and hills for miles around Long Pine creek was fed with the surplus water which had come from a five-Inch rain , and the result was that the stream which Is eighteen Inches deep normally was several feet deep , and filled with rubbish of all sorts. The one trout which was hooked , came swishing out of the water on Mr. Mathowson's lino. And this fish , according to Dr. Parker , was the vic tim of circumstances. "A rainbow trout , " says Dr. Parker , "gets Us name from its rainbow color and from the rainbow curve It cuts In the water when it jumps out. And BO Mathewson deckled to hook one of the animals when it jumped out and cut that rainbow caper. He waited w.lth his hook , thing it at the llsh when it jumped , and landed It. But after the finny thing had como ashore , we were able to discover that had only one eye and the good eye was on the off side , away from us. Otherwise it never would have been caught" WIND BLEW IN PART OF WALL OF NEW BUILDING. SEVERE STORM AT SPENCER Water Came Down In Torrents and Wind Was a Gale New Building Had Not Yet Received the Roof. Wind , Rain and Hall at Nellgh. Spencer , Neb. , Aug. 11.

"HAPPY JACK" FROM ShOSHONI Telegram Came to Gambler From the West , In Norfolk Today. When the noon train from the west rolled Into Norfolk Junction today , there stopped from a car platform a good natured looking fellow clad In a gorgeously checkered suit of clothes. A telegraph man approached and handed the stranger a nnssago wrapped In an envelope which bore the name , "Happy Jack. " "That's mo , for sure , " said the stranger. Ho tore open the enveloe and exposed to view a line of figures , something like this : " 432-CB8-24. " "Happy Jack" was evidently a gam bler from Shoshonl , going back to his eastern haunts. And this Is not the first gambler who has passed through Norfolk from Shoshonl during the past week. Last Friday there was a big bunch of them. They were rough and loud , and had chips on their shoulders. They had been driven from Shoshonl the day before , and they wore sore. At Chndron , according to a West Point woman who came through on that train , there was a gun play in the train and a bad fight. The conductor and hrakoman were afraid to inter fere with the fighters , and allowed the fight to proceed until it was completed Trains from the west during the past few days have been badly crowd ed. Yesterday there were three sleep ers on , and there was hardly a vacant seat in the train. Harrlman's Great Work. On the occasion of the great San Francisco disaster the entire resources of the Southern Pacific company were employed to their utmost In saving and relieving the people. They were the first to order by wire , from adja cent cities , carloads of food supplies for free distribution. They threw opei their gates , and passengers were carried riod free on their ferry steamers which never stopped running from Sai Francisco to Oakland pier. They rat steamers around the water front pick Ing up all refugees congregated on the wharves for safety. From Oakland pier the people were carried free to whatever point they could care for themselves or bo cared for whether it was Berkeley , Cal. , or Boston Mass. ; Portland , Ore. , or Portland Maine. Within ton days the Southen Pacific company carried free 224,069 passengers. The value of which , computed putod at lowest rates for the class o service rendered , amounted to $540 , OS3.C9 , and this covers only the earn Ings of the line west of El Paso. Canvass of accommodations in the interior of the state was made that ref ugees might be properly directed Canvass of avenues of employmen was made by wiring largo Industrie that employment might be provided Information bureaus were established at nine points In the burned district o San Francisco , which were served bj horseback riders and automobiles Messengers carrying bulletins relatlv to train service , relief work , Infonna tlon about finding people and genera public information , Including state ment of accommodations for relief a outside cities. Inquiries from eastern cities by the thousands from caston friends regarding missing people wcr answered as far as possible , the ofi cors using all the avenues at the ! command. Transportation for relief commit tees , hospital corps , physicians am nurses were arranged for on a larg scale between adjacent cities and Sa Francisco. The state health boar was given free transportation for it employes In the sanitary service Transportation of relief supplies wa given precedence over all other trains Nearly all were run on passenger tral time. Milk , bread , etc. , which wor badly needed , were brought In free i baggage cars. Gasoline for automobiles early be came exhausted , and a large numbe of machines in the service of emer gency hospitals , physicians , mllltar and civil authorities and relief com mlttees were tied up. The Souther Pacific company furnished for thes machines every drop of gasoline in it stores. In addition , it wired to nearb cities for all automobile parts whlc ere likely to bo needed in an omor- ency. Those were supplied free to inyono engaged In omcrgncy and ro > of service. The transportation of relief supplies rom April 18 to May 23 , computed at owest tariff rates over the Southern aclllc company , Union Pacific rail- oad company , Oregon Short Line rail- oad , and the Oregon nllllroad and Navigation company , amounted to 115,100.00 , representing lOGU full car- oad shipments. This does not Include uslncss handled by the express com- anles. of which there were quite a oed many cars on which the railroad ompany received no compensation. Much more than this has been done y the Southern Pacific company since ates named , so that their entire con- rlbntlon runs way beyond $1,000,000. Before accurate or adequate lufor- latlon could bo gotten by the San 'arnclsco olllco to President Harrlman o was rushing by special train to the cone of disaster. For several weeks o maintained headquarters in his ar at Oakland pier , surrounded by 10 operating and traffic officers of the oad. Ho was in close and constant lorsonal touch with the civil and mill- ary authorities , relief committees , tc. , attended several committee meet- ngs dally , and took a prominent and iclpful part In every movement for he rehabilitation of San Francisco. There was nothing that the com- any's officers could think of that vould prove helpful that thqy did not o. .Neither mqn or moans were pared to accomplish the company's bject to care for the people. While 11 this was done under the most try- ilg circumstances and difficult condl- ions , to the credit of the Southern Pacific company's operating depart- lent bo It said , that It was done with- ut one accident and without injury o life or limb of a single passenger , 'ho Now York Sun has truly said , the Southern Pacific company made world's record.

Baseball Notes. The Norfolk Brownies have changed their name to "Norfolk Reubens , " and will go by that name hereafter. They have arranged to have a baseball tour nament hero in the mornings of the race days. Wednesday morning they will play Pierce here and the next two mornings Nellgh will bo here. The Norfolk Red Tops wish to deny the story that was published In Madi son about the game last Sunday. It seems Madison had their own umpire , who favored them all the game. In the first half of the ninth the Reds- 'had one man on first and the man at bat knocked a pop-fly to the second baseman , who stood on the line to catch the ball. The man from first started to run for second and In doing so brushed by the second-baseman and accidently knocked the glove from his hand. The second baseman then tried to catch the ball and failed. Then the umpire called the Norfolk boy on second end out for Interfering with a player , which Norfolk kicked on and refused to play according to the umpire's deci sion. The boys think they are In the right and claim the game by a score of 14 to 13.
