ANGRY' PAREWIwINUTE TOO
LATE AND SO RELENTS
First Ceremony by New County
Jndtre Interrupted by Sheriff
After Knot Wu Tied.
BROKEN BOW. Neb.. Jan. K (Special.)
The first marriage ceremony performed
by County Judge Holcomb after taking his
seat the first of the year resulted In some
embarrassment for his honor and threw a
scare into a couple of "loving hearts" that
lasted several hours. William Robertson
and Mildred E. Shultz, both of Anselmo,
presented themselves before the judge and
asked to be married. While William looked
the part all right, Mildred had the appear
ance . of being several years shy of the
legal age. However, both swore she was
old enough and the ceremony proceeded.
They had hardly been pronounced one,
when Sheriff Kennedy received a hurry-up
call from Mj Shults over the phone telling
him to hold the pair, as the girl was only
16 and that Robertson was all kinds of a
trouble maker. The sheriff took the young
people into his offlco and phoned the girl's
father to make a quick trip to the county
seat if he wanted to commence anything.
The angry parent said he could not reach
Broken Bow before morning. The sheriff
replied that he would have to make - It
earlier than that, as he didn't propose to
keep the ' young people in his office all
night. This brought about a parley and Mr.
Shultz had a conference with his wife at
the other end of the line. Evidently they
determined to make the best of It, as his
next message to the sheriff was to turn
the happy couple in the direction of the
depot and tell them to hasten home. The
J judge Is now trying to invent some way
to tell a person's age without having to ask.

END OF CHAMBERLAIN CASES
Dismissal of Prosecution In Nenmha
County Believed to Mark Close
of Mtltcatlon.
TECUMSEH, Neb., Jan. IB. (Special.)
The embexslement case In the Nemaha dis
trict court against Charles M. Chamber
lain of Tecumselt, ex-cashier of the failed
Chamberlain bank, has been dismissed. The
case was dismissed upon the request of
Hugh La Master, county attorney of John
son county, and upon the request of the
Board of County Commissioners.
It can be safely predicted that this action
Is "the beginning of the end" in Chamber
lain litigation. There are other cases
against the accused, but It is quite likely
that In time they, too, will be dismissed.
Hon- Over County Printing;.
BROKEN BOW, Neb., Jan. lb. (Special.)
The new Board of County Supervisors Is
now In session. Ben Morris of Ansley was-re-elected
chairman. The only new face on
the board this year 1b that of George Dewey,
former county clerk, who succeeds James
Lee of Berwyn. The other newly elected
members succeed themselves. The board
started In with a tangle In regard to award
ing the county printing. Eleven papers
i,lnougliout the county petitioned th board
to distribute the printing and give all a
chance. Editor Purcell of the Chief acted
as representative and read resolutions
adopted by the editors of those publications.
After talks by Editors Carson and Beal of
the Republican and Beacon, a motion was
made to give all of the legal work to the
Beacon. This resulted In a letter being
read from the Sargent Leader one of the
petitioners which, while not making an
actual bid, quoted bed-rock prices In county
printing. The chairman then appointed a
committee, which took about ten minutes
to turn down the petition In favor of the
Beacon, which will be the official organ
for Custer county the coming year. The
Custer County Chief was turned down with
a lower bid.
HALF RINUTE STORE TALK
When we read some of the "ads" ap
pearing In Omaha papers we are
reminded of the fnblo of "The crow,
who tried to crow." Ills motives
were excellent, but he wasn't built
for the part. He still looked like a
crow and he didn't sound like a
rooster. He had ambition, but he
couldn't measure results by that. He
mistook the desire for the, fart. Lots
of stores base their advertising on
the magnitude of this store. They
are so desirous of eclipsing this store
that we sometimes think they are
sincere in thinking they do.
