LITIGATION OVER RESORT
Dell 0. Clark Again Appointed
Beceirer for Coortland Beach.
ACTION STARTED BY GOUBLET
Insists the Majority Stockholders
ad Others Are Trylngr to Frees
II I m Oat of the Eater
prise. "Off again, on again, Flanlgan," chirped
Dell J. Clark of this city yesterday morn
ing when, by an order by Judge Snyder, he
again became a receiver of the Courtland
Beach resort. ' One day last week Mr. Clark
was appointed receiver of this amusement
resort on the west shore of the Missouri
river, which happens, owing to the vagaries
of the "Big Muddy" in years gone by! to
be In Iowa territory Instead of Nebraska.
Mr. Clark forthwith proceeded to take
charge of the place under thla authority
conferred upon him by the United States
court, but the trustees who had been run
ning the resort under direction of the dis
trict court of Pottawattamie county denied
that the Courtland Beach Amusement com
pany was In a state of bankruptcy and
contended further that the corporation was
not of such a character as to come within
the provisions of the federal bankruptcy
law.
They Instructed their attorney to proceed
without delay to Red Oak, where Judge
Smith McPherson of the United States court
for the southern district of Iowa makes his
home, and obtain. If possible, an order dis
solving the appointment of Mr. Clarke as
receiver. The attorneys for W. R. Oourley,
president of the Courtland Beach Amuse
ment company and former manager of the
pleasure resort conducted by It, also hied
themselves to Red Oak to oppose the Is
suance of any such order. Judge McPher
son took the matter under advisement and
Tuesday announced that he had sustained
the contention 'of the trustees and that
the order appointing Mr. Clark as receiver
was revoked. Mr. Clark once more be
came a private citizen anil for the time
being did not harf the management' of the
pleasure resort on his hands. s -.
.Judge Smith McPherson. In vacating the
order appointing Mr. Clark as receiver,
held that the Courtland Beach Amusement
company was not of ' the class against
which Involuntary bankruptcy proceedings
could be sustained In the United States
court. His decision left the management,
of the resort In the hands of Albert J.
Thomas and William J. Coad. who by
agreement of the Interested parties took
over the place from William Arnd, who
had been appointed receiver In a former
action brought In the district court of
Pottawattamie county by certain creditors
of the incorporation.
Yesterday morning W. R. Oourley and
his associates went before Judge Snyder
In the superior court with an application
for the appolntment of a receiver based
on a contention, that the majority stock
holders had conspired with agents and at
torneys for the Crelghton Real Estate ft
Trust company, to turn over the manage
ment of the resort to them. It was
charged that Thomas and Coad are. In
fact, Agents of the Crelghton company,
which owns the real estate on which the
resort is located. Oourley claims thai com
pany is Indebted to him for money ad
vanced and for salary for his services
as manager.
Upon Judge Snyder making the. 'order
appointing him receiver once more, Mr.
Clark, in company with Deputy City Mar
shal Charles Crura, officer of the superior
court, after filing a bond in the sum of
82,000, proceeded to Cut-Off to again as
sume charge of the pleasure resort.

next move.

GOTCH AFTER AUTO RECORD
AND WILL MEET LION-EATER
Champion Will Pass Throngh Omaha
to Denver Klssk Has New
Wonder to Wrestle.
Frank Gotch, world'b champion wrestler
and his manager, Emil Klank, have lightly
turned their thoughts to breaking automo
bile records this coxy August weather.
Klank writes to a friend on The Bee to
say that they will flit past Omahu Friday
or Saturday enroute to ivansas uity ana
Denver In their auto, starting trom Hum
bolt. Ia.. Gotch's home.
"Frank has just been over the road to
Omaha and knows the bad places, and he
thinks we can break all records," said
Klank. "We will stop and see you, but
can't spend much time, for all our stops
will be short ones. Frank, himself, will be
at the wheel and he's awful stingy of
time when he's running the ship."
And continuing In that superlative airy.
fairy style ot his, Emil says that Gotch
has once more had hla attention- drawn to
wrestllnr.
"A big man-eater from Italy named Raee-
vlch, who has killed two fellows in nurope.
Is corning over here to devour Gotch,"
quoth this premier manager of the premier
wrestler. Fie stands five feet, eight, and
weighs 240; - has a neck ef twenty-two
inches, chest of fifty-eight, waist thirty
seven and Is only 27 year of age."
And getting Inspiration from hi own
zeal, Klank add In that picturesque lan
guage that has given him rank as one
of the great llterateurs,. as well as sport
ing lights of the age:
"They claim this fellow will enter a cage
and flaht a Hon. He Is due to arrive In
New York August 29. I wish him luck. He
will find some husky young Hons In thl
country, and If he beats them all he will
have to go against the real Lion Tamer,
from Humbolt."
Hackenschmldt, say Klank, refused to
meet this monster.
Klank has been engaged as match-maker
for the Empire Athletic club of Chicago,
a position of big pay and prominence in
sporting affairs. His unqualified success
in handling Gotch's matches for the last
two years got him the place. He win con
tinue to look after Gotch's engagements.
t'lso. But Gotch may go back on the stag
this fall, as he has a big otter.

The Spirit of Nebraska
Many writers have exhausted
themselves in discussing the spirit
of Nebraska. The hopefulness, the
courage, the enthusiasm of the Ne
braska citizens cannot be avoided.
His pride is boundless, his faith is
far reaching. His belief in the men,
his admiration for the women, and
his confidence in. the institutions of
his locality, makes bhn eloquent as
he espouses them. It is a fine spirit
and the right one. It will carry a
man far, and it will carry a com
munity farther if its men all join
in it.
. It is sufficient to state here that a
tidal wave of progressiveness has
6truck the county seats and small
cities of Nebraska. Opportunity has
knocked at their door, and they has- .
tened to undo the latch. If the city
and country towns are to hold their
own, in the present strenuous strug
gle for existence and advancement,
they must adapt measures to re
move every possible cause of fric
tion in their machinery of trade.
Publicity is the key to the twenti
eth ..century, business success. He
who has a business must get it be- .
fore the world, or the world will
pass him by. The general laws of
publicity, which apply to ordinary .
business institutions apply with ad-,
ditional' force to municipalities,' to
communities and cities. To settle '
up a country you must attract emi
gration by exploiting its resources.
To build up a town or city you must
advertise to the world its industrial
and commercial possibilities.
For this purpose there has sprung
up in nearly every town and villiage
in Nebraska some kind of public or
ganization, working for the indus
trial development of the community.
AU these have one aim in view the
betterment of the town and the
small city, that it may be a more
pleasant place in which to live and
therefore more prosperous. These
associations are found in nearly
every live community. To these
bodies are intrusted the unsched
uled and undefinable possessions of
the public. It is for them to mar
shal and exploit the resources of
their particular territory by adver
tising them as they would goods in
their own personal business.
The ,woking capital, or more
strictly speaking, the stock in trade
of any municipality the unoccu
pied territory. The industrial, raw
material, and the business oppor
tunities within its particular sphere
of influence. Every home town is a
center of industry, the throbbing,
dominating heart of its surronding
community. ,
It,is quite plain that the tino has
arrived for a stirring ip cthe com
munity conscience tra realization' ,
of the duty the imividual owe ta 1 .'.
his town. Every good citizen owea v
allegiance first 6 his family; second '

and third, to the nation. Selfish- '

SKIRMISH FIRK AT .CAMP PERRY
Score ' of Naval Academy Team
Thrown Oat Becaaee of Protest.
CAMP PERRY. O.. Aug. .-The day's
sport was marred by an unpleasant Inci
dent, the throwing out of the rapid-fire
score of the team representing the I'nlted
Htates Naval academy. WUoonsin entered
a protest against the cadets' score being
counted on the ground that the cadets had
run an unfair advantage In rapid firing,
because they had filed off or removed the
stop pin of their rifle bolt, thus making
the bolt action more rapid. The protest
was sustained and the cadets score of 446
wss counted as sero.
The skirmish scores of the leader, were
as follows:
I'nlted Miatea navy 1.121
I'nlted Htates Infantry 1.1
