Carl Davenport dropped the catcl

In the first inning and Mathewson too
It .In in the most matter of fact way.
Hoftmnster , whose weight gives hit
some momentum , made a grand snea
from first ( o second but the burst o
speed swept him on ten feet past th
moorings of safety and n cruel umplr
called him out.
In the seventh spectators though
Knnffman was mad because Bill !
Powers had smashed him too ban
with ( he ball but Knuff man was morel
angry because the umpire thought tha
Powers had touched him at all.
C. A. Smith , who otllclated Prlda >
Is classed as ono of the best umpire
in north Nebraska but fortune favoro <

close.
A third game to decide the tie ha
been suggested. The trade promoter
won the first game eight to five. Th
lawyers nailed this contest nine t
nothing. But the trade boosters wll
Insist on a Nicola-less game as Mapes

NORFOLK MAN INTERESTED IN
STREET 8IQN COMPANY.
SEEKING OMAHA FRANCHISE
W. P. Logan of This City and Wlllla
McBrlde of Elgin are Interested In
National Street Sign Company. .
Have n New Idea.
A Norfolk man IB Interested In nn
Omaha project which Is receiving a
; roat deal of attention from the
Omaha papers at this time.
W. I' . Ijognn of Norfolk and Willis
McDrldo of Elgin arc two of the eight
nen who are back of the National
Street Sign company which Is seeking
street sign franchise from the city
council of Omaha.
Signs are to be Installed on every
street Intersection In Omaha. The
signs are to bo of neat design and the
expense of their Installation will bo
about $15,000. The question at Omaha
s whether the city will expend several
houHiind dollars for the signs or give
: ho National Street Sign company a
ontract to erect them free and get Its
money out of an advertising privilege
The Income of the company would
come from the valuable advertising
space which It would acquire In con
lection with the sign posts. The com
pany Is a new one , Is handling a now
idea and Is making Its first venture
it Omaha.
The Omaha World-Hoarld speaking
) f the project says : "A now ordln
nice Introduced In the city councl
provides for a contract with the Na
Street Sign company for placing street
signs at all the street Intersections
for n period of seven years. The
latter proposition provides that this
sliajl bo done without expense of the
city , and the company shall have the
light to place a metal advertising
sign on each post , of the same as tha
hearing the name of the street , for
advertising purposes. It Is provldo (
that the city shall receive live per
cent of the gross receipts of the com
pany. The Incorporators of the com
pany are Willis McDrldo , W. P. Logan
Harry G. Graham and Charles 13. Wll
klnson.

to get something that he needed
Without any warning he was struck n
heavy blow on the shoulder by a fall
Ing weight and was rendered nlmos
unconscious. As soon as he was able
to take notice ho discovered that a
deep cut had been made close to the
neck. His first impression was tha
he had been struck by a piece of two-
by-four but upon looking about ho
saw that a large chisel had made the
wound. Mr. Rector Immediately called
upon a physician and had the injury
cared for. The doctor said that the
jugular vein was exposed and that a
deflection of the chisel the smalles
fraction of an Inch would have severet
the blood vessel. The wound was verj
painful but Mr. Rector expects to resume
sumo work next week.

CATTLE POURING TO MARKET
FROM THE RANGE.
MANY FROM NEW LINE AT DALLAS
Last Week Was The Biggest Week of
Cattle Shipment Through Norfolk
Over Northwestern In Road's His
tory Excepting Once In 1905.
This last week has been a big week
in the range cattle movement from the
northwest through Norfolk to Omaha
and Chicago markets. Thousands of
cattle from the western range have
filled the long lines of trains passing
through Norfolk in unusual numbers.
It was a big week , in the cattle bus
Iness. Its only equal was ono week
back In 1905 when a record in the cat
tle movement over the Northwestern
was established.
During the shipment week which
closed Friday 715 cars of western
range stock was loaded west of Long
Pine and beyond the Rosebud. All of
this stock passed through Norfolk dur
ing the week over the Northwestern ,
calling some thirty-flve special stock
trains Into play.
It was a busy week for the North
western , these big shipments made by
the northwest cattlemen to market.
Adding the regular and special stock
trains to the through trains from the
range country fully sixty stock trains
went through the city last week.
The record made by the range stock
movement in the western country in
1905 was 771 cars. Last week with the
715 cars made the nearest approach
to these figures.
Now that the range stock Is swing
ing Into market it does not appear that
the movement will fall much If any
below the figures for last year.
In the movement of the present sea
son the new extension into Dallas cuts
a considerable figure. This Is the flrst
season that range stuff has come over
the Bonesteel line , the Dallas exten
sion bringing the Northwestern into
the country that formerly shipped from
Valentine and other points on the west
line as well as over the new Milwau
kee extension.
The range shipping week runs from
Friday to Friday with the railroads.
After Friday the big business of the
week sets In and starts to fall away by
Tuesday or Wednesday.

FORMER SENATOR ALLEN SAYS
IT IS VISIONARY.
THINKS IT WILL BE REPEALED
Former United States Senator Allen ,
Who Was in Norfolk From Madison ,
Said the New Primary Allows Trick
ery In Naming Candidates.
Former United Setates Senator
William V. Allen of Madison , who
called attention to unconstitutional
features in the direct primary law
at the time of Its enactment , does not
hesitate to say that ho still thinks the
law bad. The recent practical test of
the now law has convinced Senator
Allen that the new law is bad in prac
tice as well as being theoretically
faulty.
The primary law was again char
acterized as "visionary" by Senator
Allen in Norfolk Friday.
"And not only visionary , " the sen
ator said , "but an expensive piece of
visionary legislation. Every vote cast
at the Madison county primary cost
Mndlson county a dollar.
"And far from accomplishing good
the law Is evil. It strikes at represen
tative government , the foundation of
good government.
"The law opens the way for design
ing men who can manipulate the pri
maries of both parties. It opens the
chance for fraud. Its arbitrary forms
limit the expression of the voters.
"Let us restore our government to
flrst principles. Let the Initiative be
with the voter. Let the voters meet
together and chose whom they wish
to represent them.
"The law in my mind is clearly
unconstitutional. But whether or not
the courts set it aside , I think It will
be repealed. It ought to be repealed
as a visionary , unsatisfactory piece of
work and men should be sent to the
legislature who stand for its repeal. "
