"Are You a Mason" the big comedy

and financial record unequalled by that
of any comedy ever presented on the
American stage. Of the many comedy
productions sent out by Rich k Harria
thia one is considered as the champion
laugh inviter. The play apart from its
story snd dramatic excellence possesses
genuine merit and ia pure and clean in
its fun. It provokes incessant laughter
of the kind that one is not ashamed to
acknowledge. The theme of the story is
baaed on the pretended signs, ceremo
nials, grips, etc of Masonry. The humor
is so direct that the fun of the Masonic
is dear to everybody.

The union services of the week of
prayer were not so well attended last
week as they were a year ago, probably
on account of the severe cold weather.
Friday evening the closing service was
held in the Congregational church. The
time was given to the subject of schools.
Prof. Kern gave an able address on the
subject emphasizing the thought that
the teacher should be the character
builder aa well as an imparter of knowl
edge. Several teachers and interested
parties to the school system took part in
the discussion which followed. The sup
pression of the reading of the Bible in
public schools by the supreme court was
spoken of snd the opinion seemed to
prevail that religion ia taught in all
nature studies in the school, that the
child mind ia impressed by God's power
through the study of sciences, physi
ology, astronomy and other studies.
The match game at bowling ten pins
between Fremont and Columbua teams
took place at Bagel's alley Thursdsy
evening and resulted in a victory for the

173 pina. Quite a crowd of spectators
were present and took a lively interest
in the proceedings. Three games were
rolled, Columbus in the first scoring 883;
in the second 863 and in the third 876,
making a total of 2622 pina. Fremont
eoored 850 in the first; 803 in the second,
and 796 in the third, their total being
2449 pina. The team from Fremont was
composed of Dietz, Kelm, Yount, Mid
dangh and Glidden, who besides being
very good bowlers were a gentlemanly
set of fellows. The home players pitted
against the visitors were Nichols, D. C.
Kavanangh, Gregorius, Will Baker and
Fauble. It is expected that a return
game will be played in Fremont in the
near future.

The Lincoln Journal says that an
other batch of vetoed and ancient claims
haa been filed with Auditor Weston and
will in due time be placed before the
proper committee in the bouse. One of
these ia a claim for $273.54 filed by War
wick Saunders of Columbus. Mr. Saun
ders waa a prominent fusionist politician
snd for asvsral years deputy oil inspec
tor. In the good old days, along in 1897,
the populist legislature paased a resolu
tion authorizing the appointment of a
commission to attend a meeting in Texas
where the question of lower freight rates
to the southern seaboard was to be the
paramount issue instead of 16 to 1. Mr.
Saunders waa rewarded for political
work with thia job. He went south but
failed to bring back lower freight rates
with him. He filed a voluminous report
of bis trip snd the question under dis
cussion, all of which he respectfully sub
mitted to the legislature. Later he
brought in a bill claiming that the leg
islature came within S273L54 of paying
him enough. The claim waa vetoed and
now comes up for another consideration.
The ringing of the fire bells and the

stores were destroyed, the total loss
being estimated at $15,000 with insur
ance of aboot 98,300. The fire started at
5 o'clock in the morning, in a restaurant,
and on account of the strong wind it was
very hard to save the greater part of the
business portion of the town.
After a trial of Herman Borchers in
the district court last week for the mur
der of hia father, extended from Monday
to Thursday night, the jury returned a
verdict of not guilty after five hours
deliberation. With the evidence in hand
many people were surprised that such a
verdict waa reached, but those who lis
tened to the evidence were sympathetic
for the boy, and believe that in the
reform echool he will receive the proper
training he has lacked in past years, and
may develop a bright boy. Judge A. M.
Post and W. M. Cornelius, who had been
appointed by Judge Hollenbeck, defend
ed the boy's interests in an able manner,
while County Attorney O'Brien conduct
ed the prosecution for the state. On
Friday August Johnson, an uncle of
Herman Borchers, filed complaint against
the boy aad he was taken before Judge

Kearney reform school until he is 21
years old. The younger boy, August,
who was implicated with Herman in the
murder, has requested to be sent to the
school, and charges will probably be
brought against him soon to have him
sent there also. Sheriff Byrnes will take
Herman to Kearney today.
