Express Companies'
Mistake is Costly
(From a Staff Correspondent)
LINCOLN, Aug. 16. (Special.) Express
companies are In trouble, not because of
what they may lose through a reduction
of express rates, but because of what
they have lost since 1907 by failure to
read aright the Sibley law, which re
duced rates, but did not refer to tho
Bhlpment of money.
Recently the roads discovered that the
law did not Intend to cover shipments ot
currency and they put the old rate back.
This brought out a protest from the
banks, which have been writing letters
to the railway commission to seo If the
commission authorized the raise.
When the Btbley law went Into effect
In 19G7 reducing the express rates, the
railroad companies took It for granted
that the reduction of 25 per cent covered
everything and for six long years they
havo betn allowing the banks a reduc
tion when they might have been collect
lng the full rate.

"Hollo, there, young fellerl"
"Howdy, kldl Going to speaok:"
"Well, my voice ain't as good as it used
to be, but I Judgo I could speak It I had
o. I feel ust as well as I did the day I
first set foot in Sarpy county thirty-two
years ago." And tho old man drvw Him
self up to his full staturo,
"You notice I didn't bring any cane
along, don't you?" the other asked, with
pardonable prido In his voice. "Lets go
up to the benches with tho rest ot tho
kids."
So "Young Feller" and "Kid." each
trying to appear thirty years yoangor,
walked erect and proudly toward tho
clump of high, shady elm and maplo
trees. In tho center was erected a plat
form. In front and on otther side of tho"
platform were tha benches, all filled with
old settlers and their families. About 30J
persons wero present celcoratirt: tno
thirtieth anniversary of the Sarpy County
Old Settlers' association at Papillion yes
tcrday.
An organ stood on one corner of the
platform and flags and bunting were
tacked on tho railings. It was tho regu
lation plcnlo platform, with the rows of
seats for the speakers and tho choir.
Young, white-haired men, trying not to
totter as' they came forward, spoke of
tho "good old days" whon plowing was
done by oxen and Indians played nt their
gentle gamo of making it unsatisfactory
for the settlers.
Among the speakors were C. E. Keys
of Springfield, presidont, and Louis
Lesleur, secretary of tho Sarpy County
Old Settlers' association; George T. Mng
ney of Omaha, Martin Feenan, president
of the Douglas County Old SettleM' as
sociation; A. N. Yost of Omaha, T. B
Holmes of La Platte, Jonathan Edwards
and E, L. Ireland ot Omaha, James
Whltted of Papillion and Joseph Elwcll
of Springfield.
Judge James Gow, who was 101 years
old yesterday, was not present on ac
count of the wenjther. In qpcoklng of the
age attained by Judgo Gow, George Mag
ney of Omaha said, in part:
Never ffni Kxclted,
"The man learned the advantages of

no display of flurry or excitement Ho
never worried when things did not turn

should worr'.' This Indifference to life
and Us vicissitudes was not taken en
tirely In a frivolous vein. He merely ac
cepted setbacks calmly and looked upon
them as the direct result of that which
Is Inevitable,"
Over near a great elm was a keg ot
water. This keg waB a sort of meeting
place for the veterans of the "good old
days." There it was Uiat Jim tried to

youth.
"Why?"
Ho it He Cot n Pension.
"Say, do you fellers know Jim Black?
Aw, sure you do. Well, anyhow, I bot
he never told you hof near he camo onco
to getting an Increased pension." Tho
speaker looked around him. Nobody, It
seemed, had been taken into James
Black's confidence on that score.
"How did It happen?" someone asked.
"Well, It was over in Illinois," tho
speaker said. "It was back In tho fall
of '97 no, '96, if I remember right," he
corrected himself, with Uio old settler's
horror of making a mis-statement as to
I dates, names or places In a narrative.
I "Jim, he decided he wanted a higher pon

"Wo have called it a draw," said Ad

for tho. percentago of the killed would
after tho bloodless conflict. "Of coursl
In real war the Reds might have wo
have been terrible wero such a rush

manouvcring, considering the training of

of. They are natural born flghtcrB, thess
militiamen of Nebraska, and the state
may feol safo with them."
Brigadier General Joseph A. Storch, In
command of the camp, commended Gen
eral Hall for the efficiency with which
tho battlo was managed, and declared
with enthusiasm that It was all "a rlns
business."
Although many were ordered dead by
tho umpires, only ono acident occurred.
Sergeant Aubrey S. Kenworthy of Com
pany A of the Fourth, Omaha, second In
command of tho artillery, received a
severely bruised log. When the order
to advance with the artillery was given
the company sprang on tho caisson and
the horses broke Into a dead run for the
front. Ono horse, terrified by the sound
of firing, swerved to tho right, dashed
Into his mate, broke tho tongue of the
cannon carriage and threw tho whole
company to the ground. Ono wheel of
the carriage passed over Kenworthy' s
leg and for a fow minutes ho was help

gulloped to the nld of the nljured man,
loaded him on a stretcher and carried

Immediately treated.
Awful Scrimmage,
"It was an awful acrlmmnge," said
Kenworthy, rubbing his head, "and I
got Jarred up a bit, but In two or three
days I'll be up and around again."
While tho battlo was on the eager
crowd pressed nearer atid nearer to the
battle line and threo or four times the
angry umpires ordered thorn back. The
crowd wna so largo and the Interested
persons eo varied, so many sweethearts
and wives and mothers being present,
that the effect was to detract the at

An automobile carrylns a cheerful
crowd of young girls drove right Into
tho army of tho Reds. Tho girls Jumped
out to cheer the soldiers on. One of them
i wore a diaphonous skirt. The young
