Haasch Bros' team Indulged in a

last evening on South First street , re
sulting In a broken buggy but no brok
en bones. Krnest and Darius Haasch
and their sister Leonn were driving to
the Northwestern train to meet an
other sister , and when they came op
posite the lights strung along the now
sewer ditch the team became fright
ened and btarted to run. Near Shaf
fer's meat market the tongue and neck
yoke snapped off , checking the team
momentarily. Krnest , who was driv
ing , succeeded In holding them back
while the occupants climbed out of
the carriage , and the team passed on ,
running Into a fence north of the do-
pot. The carriage was considerably
demoralized but the passengers feel
thankful that no ono was hurt.
Manager Pcdcrsen know what ho
was talking about when ho gave his
personal guarantee that the "College
Hey , " with Ralph Higgs as the "boy"
was all right. The appearance of this
company at the Auditorium Thursday
evening was greeted by a good house
and the entertainment was certainly
ono of the very best that has appeared
In Norfolk this season. As a "boy"
Ralph Uiggs Is himself a whole show ,
while the girl of the piece , Miss Hose
Stlllman , is a very close second. They
have unusually good support and the
play Is evenly balanced , bright and at
tractive from start to finish. It would
seem that Manager Pedersen has final
ly succeeded in obtaining a quiet
house , thcio not being a disturbing
noise during the evening , and If there
were any boys present they were co'r-
talnly well behaved.
Tllden Citizen : The committee ap
pointed to wait upon John A. Creigh-

Crelgliton objected to selling the land ,
remarking that If a sale was affected ,

and mortar In Omaha , and that ho
would prefer to keep the money In the
SO-ncro tract near Tllden. Eventually
a five-year lease was agreed upon , at
the annual rental of J240. Additional
agreements provide that If the land is
put upon the market at the expiration
of the lease , the carnival association
Is to bo given the preferred right of
purchase ; also that , if the ground is
not sold nt that time , the association
Is to have the refusal of another five-
year lease. The members of the com
mittee who transacted the business for
the association wore C. II. Slbloy , Pat
Stnnton , E. H. Lulkart , Frank Carson ,
and E. H. Hanson.
ON FARM OF H , F. DARNHARDT
NEAR CREIGHTON ,
DEEN DUILT ONLY TWO YEARS
Supposed to Hnvo Cnufjht In the Kitch
en When the Renters Were Spending
the Evening at n Neighbor's Loss
$2,500 , Partly Insured.
Crolghton , Neb. , Doc. 21. Special to
The News : The house on Mrs. H. F.
llnrnhardt'H farm , two and a half miles
southeast of Crelghton , was totally
destroyed by flro laut night. The
house was ono of the host farm places
In this community and was new , the
larger part of the building having been
erected two yearb ago at a cost of
over $1,000. ! The farm has been In
the hands of n renter , Colllo Cohoc ,
but the family was not at homo when
Iho flro stalled , HO the origin Is a mys
tery , although It Is supposed to have
started In the kitchen flue. The rent
er's family were upending the evenIng -
Ing at a neighbor's. The Ilrst that was
noticed of the lire was when a farmer
passed and saw an unusual light In the
kitchen windows , which ho quickly de
cided was a lire. Summoning help the
neighbors went to work with a will
and succeeded In removing the furni
ture from three rooms down stairs , but
everything In the kitchen-and on the
second floor was consumed with the
house. The Uarnhardt family live at
Norfolk.
A call at the homo of II. F. Barn-
hardt In this city found that gentle
man out of town , but Mrs. Uarnhardt ,
whoso property was destroyed , an
swered. She refused to believe the
report of the flro which came to The
News until she had telephone Crelgli
ton and verified It. She said that two
years ago she erected a largo now ad
dition to the old farm house , at a cost
of over $2,000 , and that the whole
building waa worth fully $2,500. It
was Insured for $1,500. The loss on
furniture falls upon Mr. Cohee , the
renter , but she was unable to place any
value upon It.

IKiotn Frldnj's Unlly.J
Andrew Teal , one of the best known
engineers on the Northwestern system ,
dropped dead at his homo In this city
at about 7 o'clock Friday morning
The cause of his death was heart dis
ease.
ease.Mr.
Mr. Teal had been ailing for some
lime and during the past two months
has been laying off on account of his
health. For the past few days he 1ms
been confined to his bed the greater
part of the time. This morning ho
thought ho was able to got up , and
had only just arisen nnd was being
assisted by Mrs. Ten I to n chair , when
he suddenly collapsed and fell dead on
the floor.
For twenty-five years Andy Teal had
been an engineer on the Northwestern
railroad , going with the old Fremont ,
Elkhorn and Missouri Valley In 1S 0
and continuing with the Northwestern
when that company took over the road ,
nnd ho was personally acquainted and
popular with more than half the pco-
plo living between Missouri Valley and
Long Pino.
Mr. Teal was born at Geneva , Now
York , April 13 , IS 1C , and removed with
his parents to western Iowa when ho
was but a boy , continuing on the farm
of his father until ho was twenty-five.
At that age ho began with the Chicago
Northwestern nt Missouri Valley ns

enne , Wyoming , where he was round
house foreman for the Union Pacific
for six years , returning to the Missouri
Valley nnd going with the F. E. & M.

In 187-1 he was married to Miss Mary
Mnndoville of Missouri Valley. There
were no children but a little girl was
adopted , who is now Mrs. Miller Math
er , and who , with her foster mother ,
deeply mourns the sudden taking away
of a true man.
Mr. Teal was a member of the Chris
tian church and had been working hard

nation , which he hoped to see complet
ed In the near future. He wns n pop
ular member 'of the Brotherhood of
Locomotive engineers.

many years master mechanic of the
F. E. & M. V. at Missouri Valley. Mrs.

noon , and will bo held under the aus
pices of the Brotherhood of Locomo
tive engineers. Interment will bo in
Prospect Hill cemetery.
Mrs. Teal will continue lo live in
Norfolk , where they have a nice homo
but recently completed.
COLORED MOURNERS TOOK POS
SESSION OF SERVICES.
CHRISTMAS PROGRAM CHANGED
It Was a Surprised Congregation at
the Methodist Church Sunday MornIng -
Ing , When Colored Funeral Was
Found In Progress.
fFrom Monday's Dally. ]
Christmas services were not held
In the Methodist Episcopal church of
Norfolk Sunday morning according to
original plans. It was a colored fu
neral Instead that occupied the hour.
When the congregation assembled , ex
pecting to hear the joyful music of
: ho Yulotlde , and In happy antlclpa-
: Ion of the presentation of a beautiful
new flng to the church , they found to
their very great surprise that among
the assembled throng were n large
lumber of colored people and that nt
the nltnr wns a casket Instead of anew
now flag.
It was something of a surprise even
to the pastor , Rev. air. Vallow , who
had announced the annual Christmas
services and the flag service for the
morning hour on Sim'dny. Indeed ho
tried In vnin to cnrry out the progrnm
ns origlnnlly nnnounced , but the
mourners insisted oven more .aggres
sively nnd they finnlly had their wny
about It. It was not a matter of argu
ment with them , nor did It matter that
plans had been made. They announced -
nounced to the pastor that they would
bo on hand nt 10:30 : for a funeral and
that ho would preach the sermon for
It. Ho protested vehemently but In
vain. Hastily the choir music wns re
arranged from Christmas Into funeral
strains , but It wns too late to announce
to the public the change In plan. And
so members of the church attended
the funeral nt 10:30 : and went again
In the evening to listen to the Christ
mas program. The now flag was not
presented and will como later.
How the Plans Clashed.
The death of airs. Galnes , n colored
woman who lived east of the Junction ,
and who succumbed on Friday to n
cnncer , caused the disarranged plans
In the church nnd gnvo Incentive to
the colored woman's family nnd rein-
lives from out of town to take posses
sion of the church just nt the hour
when the members had planned to use
t. It was said that a number of col
ored people from Omaha were In town
for the funeral nnd that they must re
turn on the noon train. Therefore ,
they argued , the funeral must bo held
at 10no. : And It wns.
It was late Saturday that friends of
the dead colored woman came to air.
Vnllow to tell him that they would hold
their funeral service at the church
Sunday morning. He argued and
pleaded , but to no avail , and airs.
Galnes' friends carried the day.
Strange expressions of confusion nnd
surprise overspread faces of the
church goers when they found the sit
uation. There wns no complaint , but
merely wholesome surprise. And , ac
cordingly , the regular Christmas ser
vice was held In the evening. The
now ling will bo presented to the
church through the efforts of J. W.
Bovce , who had raised a fund for Us
purchase. It Is a beautiful banner and
Is considered a highly accoptlblo
Christmas gift by church members.
