quail and prairie e hie ken abundant, with

now open and the quail season will begin
November 1, continuing one month.
"It seem to be the prevailing opinion
among hunters and farmers that the o'osed

Sunday nlrht the police were called to
810 South Twenty-fonrtRitretr"where a
family riot was snld to be In progress.
Peter Relbold and his brother, Oeorge, were
found under the influence of liquor and In
dustriously engaged In terrorizing the Im
mediate neighborhood. They were arrested
and a charge of disturbance and discharg
ing firearms wtlhln. th city limits placed
agalnat them.' .'.'
This morning a new complaint was filed
charging the young men with a more seri
ous charge that of shooting with Intent to
kill which was preferred by Mrs. Clara
Bronaon, an aged widow who lives at 816
South Twenty-fourth. Mrs. Bronaon waa
accompanied by, two of her neighbor
women,' Mrs. . Minnie Schauhl, who live
'next door, and Mrs. H. E. Hlggtns, a
colored woman, who. occupies the flat ati
812 South Twenty-fourth. Mrs, Schauhl
knew practically nothing of the affair, but
Mrs. Hlgglns had heard the Relbolds plan
ning to make trouble for Mrs. Bronaon?' she
told County Attorney Kennedy, and added:
"They aald 'they would shut off her wind.",
. Mrs. Bronson told how the young men
fiad attempted to open the door of her
'ApArtmenta and had broken the hasp with
which she locked It from the Inside In their
.efforts to get In. She had stood hanging te
the hasp with all her might, when Oeorge
Relbold ahot at her three times from a re
volver. One bullet passed through th panel
of the door just above her head. The colored
woman, Mrs. Hlgglns, who aald she saw the
shooting., corroborated Mrs. Bronaon's
story.
The timely arrival of the three women in
police court prevented the arraignment of
the Relbolds on the charge filed against
them Sunday night at th time of their
arrest. J -

CUT OFF FRESHY'S MUSTACHE
Omaha Junior Dents Do a Little
- Rough- Hons . Barherlnc to
Get Kven.
. Should the students at the Omaha Dental
college be fortut ate enough In the future
to hear '-Bob" Hurdette's lecture on "The
Rise and Full of the Mufctache," they will
give. him their undivided attention, for the
rise and fall of the hirsute appendage of
the junlora was made a subject for a class
scrap last evening thut rivalled any
thing of Its kind that wa ever wit
nessed at any of the college In the west.
It all happened while the faculty was
absent, and was doubtless due to the fact
that the juniors have a good memory. Last
year the julors IssuTd an order which! made
it necessary for the freshmen to shave oft
their mustaches. Some objected, and they
were subjected to rough treatment. It
was found In the end, however, that all
of them had compiled with the order, either
voluntarily or because they were the vic
tims of free shaves, in which the juniors
did the tonsorlal work.
Those who were freshmen last, year are
now juniors. Smarting under the treatment
they had received last year, a solemn com
pact wVa made to get even, , and their suc
cessors as freshmen were made the ob
jects of their revenge. An order similar to
that of last year waa Issued and the1 fresh
men were ordered to remove their mus
taches. Having- some regard- for thelf'an
atomlcal structures,.- the major portion of
the class thought It-would- be . best, that
history 'should not repeat itself, and so
they compiled meekly with the mandate
which had gone forth.
There were some who objected, however,
amdhg them being Charles Atkins and
Grant 'Williams.' ' The' latter waa given a
a second - warning, - and thinking discretion-
the better parf bf valor, ' he com
piled With .the order and shaved' off his
mustache. Atkins failed to comply and was
made' the subject for a concerted effort
last ' evening on the part of the junlora.
The juniors outnumbered the freshmen,
the ratio being about two to one freshman.
The forty junlora .made a rush for 'those
who had foiled to comply with their', order
and the twenty freshmen mads a last
stand. When H was all Over the fresh
men did not have a slrtgle colleague' who
could yoasl of a mustache. Some bruised
bodies '-and foot' ball 'maneuvers Were
features of the occasion, but today peace
reigns, for J he freshmen of, last year., have
had 'their revenge f ot the treatment- ac
corded them by thennfors, while the.jfresht
men. of this year.Ar laying. -plan Tor a
atre.nqous campaign. '.

OMAHA, Oct SB. To the Editor of The
Bee: While the Improvement clubs are
discussing how to make Omaha beautiful
by schemes which Involve large expendi
ture it might not be out of place to point
out some things of less magnitude which
would contribute materially to ths appear
ance of the' city. Scattered over Omaha
there are a large number of vacant lots,
the owners of which permit them to be
come Incumbered each, year with a rank
growth of weeds. These are neither beau
tiful nor healthful and offer a refuge for
the criminal and. tha ylclous. Th writer

of these -lots and the -planting of tree

The Improvement of these lots in the man

would certainly remove one blemish from
the city. B.
