ONE OF THE HALLOWE'EN '
PRANKS IN NORFOLK ,
NOTHING BAD WAS DONE HERE
Hallowe'en IB Still on the Calendar
But It Isn't Nearly So Bad as Once
It Was Progress Has Interfered
With Old Pranks.
The lines of municipal authority
faded in the mint of Hallowe'en night
nud the mayor's ' buggy was run off
with the rosL The mayor's Hallowe'en
police notice may have kept some of
the boys within llmitH but it'didn't
keep bis own buggy ' " the barn. How-
uvur , Mayor Diirliuid rounded up his
property In the morning with u smllu
becaiiHu ho was thankful that they
hndn't taken the barn with the buggy.
Ilallowo'en Is utlll on the calendar
but It Isn't nearly as bad an It used to
bo when Norfolk business men were
young. The episodes that Norfolk avenue -
enuo business men shamelessly culled
out of the memories of their youth
1'Ylday ' morning would have brought
down the undying wrath of Chief Flynn
In l'J07. '
Hut It Isn't ' the small boy who Is
getting bettor. Its progress and noth
ing else that Is pushing the old time
Hallowe'en spirit aside In Norfolk.
What would the old Hallowe'en have
boon without board sidewalks to tip
over , wooden crossings to demolish ,
gateu to steal , fences to upheave and
loose wagons to make away with ? But
the co in out sidewalk and crossing Is
making the day of boards llttlo more
than memory. Property owners thorn-
selves have taken down the fences.
Uuggles are locked In substantial
barns.
There was no serious volume of
complaint registered against Hallow-
$ o'on Uio morning after. There was
something less than usual of harmless
Hallowe'en frolic on account of the
Ht weather. In some instances tbo line
of "harmless" amusement was passed
nud. private property rights abused.
The complaints , however , were not
general.
In ono or two cases damage was re-
jwrted to cement walks and these In
stances may bo followed up by the
police. News that n few board walks
had been tossed over was rocloved
without noticeable agitation on the
part of the street department , which
has been on a cement walk campaign
for some time.
There was a "scrubbing bee" along
Norfolk avenue when daylight dis
closed a general array of soaped win
dows.
Special police service was main
tained Thursday evening but no ar
rests of a Hallowe'en nature wore re
corded.
In a social way Hallowe'en parties
were largely Informal gatherings. Ilal
lowo'en and the special opportunities
that Hallowe'en decorations and party
idoaa afford were not neglected for
there were many Informal parties
about the city.

Madison Chronicle : John H. Hard-
Ing has had on additional amount of
work to look after during the past few
weeks on account of the illness of
Commissioner Malone. During the
past week ho has been attending to
some brldgo work over In the south
west portion of the county. In re
sponse to a telephone message asking
when ho was coming over to Madison
ho said It Is business first and politics
afterwards. It occurred to us that a
man who placed his official duty obovo
personal Interests is the right kind of
man to keep In office. The people are
not listening to petty personal scraps
but they are satisfied with Mr. Hard-
ing's official record and will elect him
by a safe majority.

LINCOLN MAN DEPOSITED $2,609
AND FORGOT IT.
INTEREST IS NOW REVIVED
John T. Jones Placed More Than Two
Thousand Dollars In First National
Bank of Lincoln and Signed Over
Money Without Knowing It
Lincoln , Neb. , Nov. 1. Can a man
completely forget having deposited
more than $2.GOO In n bank In his own
home town ? It seems hardly possible ,
but that a Nebraska man did so more
than n dozen years ago Is a matter of
court record. Interest In the case
has boon revived recently owing to
the candidacy of Wlllard N. Stewart
for the post of district Judge. Mr.
Stewart In 1894 became the defendant
In a suit brought against him by John
T. Jones for the recovery of $2,009.35
and Interest.
Mr. Jones several years before had
deposited the above sum In the First
National bank of Lincoln and , strange
ly enough , had forgotten all about the
transaction. Mr. Stewart , learning of
this fact , made a proposition to Jones
to deed him certain property , two lots
and a house In College 11111 , a suburb
of Lincoln , for an assignment of Jones'
Interest In certain property the nature
and location of which Stewart refused
to disclose. The College Hill house
and lots were incumbered by a mort
gage of 2,000 and a small accumulation
of Interest and taxes. One of the con
dltlons of the proposed trade was that
Jones should sign his name to the pa
pers without reading them or seeing
what they contained. Jones finally
consented to this after securing from
Stewart a written affidavit to the ef
fect that nothing was contained In the
papers which would subject him to
criminal liability or bring upon him
public Ignominy or disgrace.
Ono of the papers Jones so blindly
signed was a check on the First Na
tional bank In favor of Stewart for
$2,009.35. It was In 1894 that ho dis
covered what he had done. In the
meantime he had sold the real estate
for barely enough to pay the mortgage
lieu upon It. Jones , when his eyes
were opened promptly brought suit In
the , district court to recover the inon I
ey and Interest , alleging that ho had
been Induced to sign the check with
out reading It by the untruthful and
fraudulent representations made to
him by Stewart , who had told him
that he wished to procure from him a
power of attorney and an assignment ;
that It would not put him in a worse
condition or position , lose him any
money or deprive him of any interest
but would be of great value to Stew
art. The plaintiff declared that ho by
oversight and error had forgotten his
deposit in the bank and relying on the
representations made by the defendanl
and believing them to be true , signet
his name twice , but that In so doing
ho unknowingly signed the check on
which the defendant drew the money
from the bank. The case was decided
in Mr. Stewart's favor , but In review
ing the case the supreme court said :
"Tho facts in this case present a
very singular transaction. Much as
the court may feel disposed to con'
demn the selfish cunning manifested
by the defendant and to lament the
artless confidence of the plaintiff , yel
the legal rights Involved are governed
by well established principles of the
law and by the law only must they be
settled. The rule is well established
that where persons are dealing with
each other upon equal terms , and no
confidential relation exists between
them , neither is bound to disclose su
perlor information ho may have BUS
pecting the transaction and , in the ab
sence of fraud or deception , to Induce
the contract , the court can afford no
relief. The law presumes every man
capable of taking care of his own In
terests , and his poor Judgment or un
fortunate trades cannot form a basis
of Interference by the court. "

SCARCITY SAID TO EXIST IN THIS
FIELD.
AFFECTS NORTHERN NEBRASKA
t Is Said That Ministerial Salaries
Have Not Kept Pace With the Uplift
In Prices Settlement Work Calls
Many Young Men Now.
There Is a shortage of ministers In
lorth Nebraska. The same conditions
seem to be general over the west ,
It Is not surprising that the general
scarcity of all kinds of labor , skilled
and unskilled , has proved to be the
csult of conditions that also affect
nlnlstcrlal circles.
The Methodist church Is among the
uost prosperous of the church denom-
nations in north Nebraska and yet
even its elders have to exerclso their
wits at times to keep all the pulpits
supplied. In the Nellgh district of
which Rev. Thomas Blthell of Norfolk
8 presiding elder there have been two
; > astorless charges , churches furnish-
ng parsonages and paying salaries of
$ -100 and $500.
In other protostnnt churches than
the Methodist there has been even
nero dlfllculty in securing pastors.
Two Norfolk churches have been with
out pastors for several months and
lave either taken or are Just taking
steps to remedy their condition.
Why the shortage ?
Norfolk churchmen don't put any
stock In the opinion that there is a
modern tendency away from things
spiritual or that the ministry no long
er attracts.
In explaining the shortage two co
dltlons are pointed out : first , that the
ministerial salary hasn't kept pace
with recent tendencies and second
that settlement , Y. M. C. A. and other
forms of work closely allied with the
ministry Is drawing the services of
men who would otherwise be preach
ers.
ers.North
North Nebraska Is paying her minis
ters nioro than she did In the lean
years of the nineties , but It Is said that
the increase In salaries hasn't been
uniform and hasn't kept pace with the
upward swing of prices.
Churches In the northwest are pros
perous.
The Methodist church over north
Nebraska was , according to the recent
word of ono of Its officials , as sound
as the banks of the section.
The proverbial church debt "Isn't. "
Churches have freed themselves of
the debts left over from the hard
years and they haven't Incurred now
ones when building. The lesson of
the eighties Is said to have been
learned and even In these times of
plenty and bright prospects the financ
es of the churches are cash finances.
The churches of north Nebraska
have ceased to build on the future.
But they still build. Over at Albion
the Methodists expect to have a $20-
000 churcn completed by Christmas.
But no debts. John Hermann of Nor
folk Is building it.
The attitude of the churches Is said
to bo typical of the different attitude
that the west has taken in the recent
years of plenty compared with its
course during the prosperity and
booms of the later eighties.
SITUATION IN ANTELOPE.
.
There Is Indication of Republican Vic-
tory In That County.
Nellgh , Neb. , Nov. 4. Special to
The News : The political situation in
Antelope county on the atato ticket
will show a republican majority from
100 to 300 votes when the polls close
tomorrow evening.
However , the boosters for the dem
ocratic and peoples' independent can
dldates for county offices , claim they a
will elect at least four , who they say
will occupy seats In the court house
after January 1.
The republican leaders don't see It
that way , and up to a late hour this
morning do not concede ono man.
They declare that if election day
were ono week longer the repub
lican majority would bo the largest
over recorded In this county , owing
to the unscrupulous manner In which
some of the democratic candidates
have conducted the campaign to se
cure their election.

AMES BY LUCK.
S SEEN BY DAILY NEWS MAN
Vebrnskn Field at Lincoln Never Yet
Has Witnessed so Thrilling or so
Dramatic a Football Game as That
Saturday With Ames.
Lincoln , Neb. , Nov. 4. From a staff
I'lrospondent ' : Never In the history
f Nebraska football has the Lincoln
old been the scone of a more thrill-
: ig or dramatic contest than on Satur-
ay when Nebraska won from Ames
on to nine. Never on Nebraska Held
as a game been so marked by shift-
ig fortunes or won by so narrow a
largln.
It was Nebraska's game by a single
IK olnt. And In the nerve straining sec-
nd half certain victory was not reg-
stored until the final whistle.
The best toiun won but it did not
vln because It was the best team.
, uck was after all the ruling keynote
f the gamo. The llrst half was a
tory of fumbles and Inopportune mis-
aps that denied to Nebraska winning
cores. The first twenty minutes of
ho second half was a story of blocked
r poorly directed goal tries that
urncd attempt after attempt at field
oals to naught for Ames. Two points
in a safety by an Ames man , needless-
y and carelessly made , was a simple
1ft to Nebraska. Ames' single touch-
own was a fluke.
It was a dramatic battle between
ho old football and the now. No-
raska , schooled In old 1'no ' football ,
iad n line that could not bo penotrat-
d by Ames and an offensn that gained
27 yards on straight football totwen-
y-oight yards negotiated by Amos
hrough Nebraska. On punts and In
he Held of the boot Woller was head
ind shoulders above Ames. But In the
iso of the forward pass and In run
ning back punts Amos was as far
ihead of Nebraska ns the state unl
'orslty was ahead of the Iowa Aggies
n straight football.
Nebraska has neither mastered nor
olvert the forward pass , the great fea
ure of the new game of football , NeN
: iraska ) essayed the pass but on three
nstances. It was Amos' single winf
nlng card. Without It the Aggies
vould have been swamped. With two
ncn perfect In the use of the pass
Ames fought Nebraska to a standstill
and lost the game only for want of a
lependable goal kicker.
Saturday's game was played wholly
n the second half. In the first Ne
braska scored a Held goal early and
so clearly outclassed in the old line
scrimmage that the contest promised
.o be one sided and wholly unevont-
'ul. ' In the second half Ames drew
ho ball early and unwound the for
ward pass , swept all before them for
wonty minutes hut was akle to real
ze a single goal from a place kick
only after six successive tries , some
blocked and others misdirected. Then
a touchdown , a fluke scored ao the re
sult of an Ames fumble on a place
kick giving the Aggies a chance for
an unopposed dash to the goal line ,
sent the score high In Awes' favor.
Never has there been a spell more
onso or nerve racking In the fifteen
minutes that Nebraska battled out a
Ictory. Fortune favored Nebraska
when Wlllette of Amea blindly turned
ho Initial klckoff into a safety. Then
ifter straight football had twice all
> ut made the coveted touchdown Wei-
ers' boot sent the ball squarely be
tween the posts. In the last stirring
moments of play Amos' use of the
orward pass kept the game In doubt.
Not since the Nebraska victory over
Minnesota In 1902 were the Nebraska
itudents so jubilant.
The Ames game out of the balance
Nebraska looks to Kansas and St.
, ouls , the remaining games that af-
ord . Nebraska the chance of regaining
he lost championship of the Missouri
valley. Next Saturday at Lawrence ,
Nebraska will probabiy beat Kansas
much as she beat Ames but a different
cam will have to go to St. Louis on
Thanksgiving. The Nebraska team
, hat beats St. Louis will have to rnas-
er the offensive and defensive side of
.he forward pass.
But pass or no pass Nebraska has
great team this year , and the pros-
pects for a greater one next year with
he additional material all In sight on
the university campus. And Coach
Cole's name , If the wind blows right ,
s going to bo linked with Nebraska's
as only Booth's has been.
Saturday's game was between the
old football and the new , and It proved
to be about the new game that the
contest revolved. And In most of the
plays that counted the ball was In the
air.
The game more than any other
brought opinion to a focus on "re
formed" football. And there were
two minds.
"It Isn't ' the game It used to be , "
mourned a football follower of years
standing.
"No It isn't. I am really bcglnnlg
to enjoy the game , " ' Joined In a Lin
coin citizen.
It Is the uncertainty , the luck , the
erratic offense that alarms the one ,
the open , spectacular play that ap
peals to the other.
Saturday's game In Its spectacula :
sway of fortune and dramatic victory
has a place In western football history ,
But that the Nebraska-Amos gam
was really what the football critics a
Lincoln declared It to bo In the ma
ment of enthusiasm must be denied

sense In going awny out to western North Dakota and Canada on those bleak
prairies , a thousand miles from markets In

Dakota j will bo remembered for years to come and especially by those poor
unfortunate people living In towns where they did not have a train for uoarly
two months. Buy your tickets at your home station on the Ilrst and third
Tuesdays of each month on which date low HOMESEHKEHS rates prevail ,
over all roads entering the SOUTHWEST where they have no BLIZZARDS ,

FE , via KANSAS CITY. OUR OWN SPECIAL TRAIN of Pullman cars leaves
Kansas City at 11 o'clock Wednesday morning following the first and third
Tuesday of each month for FRIONA , TEXAS , where our OWN AUTOMOBILES
and carriages meet and transport us to the new town of SPRING LAKH , on
