FAIL TO PROVE THE BIG ATI PTE
Bait Lake Baak Presents a Draft and!
Brings Salt for Collection.
SCHUYLER. Neb.. April 1 8peclal.
Charlea Kris of Howella waa sued In the
district court here yesterday on a draft
that wa. sent to the Colfax County bank,
Howella. from Salt Luke City for collec
tion. Mr. Ktli and a friend, Frank Hos
tek of Chicago, traveled In the west Inst
fall and on their trip were In Salt Ike
City. During their absence a telegram
was received by his Howella' bankers in
quiring If a check or draft on Ktlx for two
waa good, and reply made that It was and
that money waa In the bank. Shortly,
after his arrival home his banker asked
him what he bad bought. He replied
"nothing," snd seemed 'mystified. A few
days laier a draft for $900, evidently signed
by Kris came to the bank. Before pay
ing It Kris', attention waa called to the
matter and he denied the signature or any
knowledge of It, and stopped payment. The
only thing he could recall that might have
been the source of such a transaction waa
that he fell In with a couple of men in
Salt Lake City and they exchanged ad
dresses, Mr. Kria having written hla name
for them In a pass book, together with his
plare of doing his banking. The deposi
tions of two men, one of them who pre
sented the draft at the Salt J-ake City
bank that sent it for collection, and his
friend, are. In effect, that Kris got Into a
game of poker in which he lost $700, and
that he gave this check to cover hla loss of
wager. Kris denied that he ever played
any auch game, or even knew how to play
poker, and hla friend. Hostek, corrobor
ated all of hi. statements. The Jury in
the case made finding, "No cause for ac
tion."

PAPILLION. Neb. April 1. 8peclsX
Testerday afternoon Charles Dlehl, a Vnlon
Pacific lineman, was sent along the line
to locate and repair a break In the wire.
When he arrived at Portal he found a
cross In the wires and In order to get at
the trouble It was necessary for him to
far open a cable box located on tte top
of the pole.
This he proceeded to do, but waa consid
erably taken back when he discovered that
h had run amuck of a swarm of bees which
had taken possession of the particular box.
The bees swarmed out by the hundreds,
some getting down Dlehl's neck and others
making such severe efforts to expel the
Intruder that Dlehl waa soon compelled
to beat a hasty and ungraceful retreat
down the pole.
There was no way of smoking the bees
out, they being on top of a fifty-foot pole,
neither was there any other way to get rid
of them, and It was Imperative that the
wires be repaired Immediately. Farmers
came to the rescue and suggested all kinds
of remedies which, upon being tried, re
sulted In nothing but stlncs. the bees hold.

Time was being wasted and Dlehl con
cluded that stringent methods must be
employed and accordingly hp resolved to
make the repair, in spite of the bees. Re
cllmblng the pole he set to work with a
will amid a perfect cloud of the Insects
and performed the task, receiving the
hearty plaudit of the onlookers.
