sermon to Richard Bennett,
porter at the B. F. Goodrich Rubber

ported the theft of several hundred
dollars' worth of merchandise and a
valuable watch stolen from the desk
of an employe. Buford came in to
make a purchase, while detectives
were on the way up, and he was told
about it.
Suspicion was directed toward Ben
nett, and Buford questioned him and
learned that he had been gambling.
The sermon commenced immediately,
and soon Bennett confessed to steal
ing the watch and told where he had
pawned it. He stood pat on the theft
of the merchandise, however. By the
time the detectives came, he was will
ing to accompany the officers to the
pawnshop, where the watch was sub
sequently found. .
Bennett was arraigned in police
court and sentenced to thirty days
in the workhouse.
Unable to Tell Who

he says,
He walked into a cigar store at 1402
Farnam street last night and asked for
a doctor. When Police Surgeon Kully
came, he exhibited a small caliber bul
let hole in his cheek. He says he
was standing in front of a saloon near
the postoffice when a man came up to
him and shot him, and then ran away.
tie said he did not get a good enough
look at his assailant to give a descrip
tion. He is being detained at head
quarters for investigation.

DINNER REWARDS
HUNT FOR MEMBERS
Ninety-Five Commercial Club
Hustlers Spend Day in
Scout Work.
GOOD HAUL THE RESULT
The ninety-five men who hustled
for more Commercial club members
yesterday afternoon dragged them
selves into the club rooms at 6:30
o'clock last night, washed up their
faces and brushed their hair for the
dinner.
H. O. Wilhelm, captain of the crew
that set out to drag in the 100 new
members in a single day, headed the
table and managed the evening's en
tertainment. A little hot coffee, a
few slices of hot bread and some
good steak brought new life to the
lanca comrades.
Many of the men who signed up
for membership during yesterday's
campaign were at the tables.. Every
man signed was invited to attend the
dinner and get acquainted and be ini
tiated. . -
The band played ragtime, the col
ored boys danced southern plantation
clogs and the workers delivered im
promptu speeches.
A few weeks ago Wilhelm and his
Hosts attacked the city with a view
to bringing in 100 members in a
three-day campaign. This time they
went out determined to bring in 100
in one day. The task was almost too
much for them, but they came with
a good day's kill just the same.
Now that the work of the various
teams hustling Commercial club
membership yesterday has been
checked up, it is found the committee
brought sixtv-seven membtrshins
actually in the game bag in the eve
ning of a single day's work, and that
some fifteen others promised to send
their checks in by mail at once. Others
are contingent upon this or that so
that it looks as though the 100 mark
for the single day, which was the
goal set, will probably be practically
reached when all the results of yes
terday's work are finally in.
Concert at Gretna by
Creighton Glee Club
Last Saturday evening Prof. Henry
Bock, musical director at Creighton

entertained between the acts. Joseph
Ostdick gave a violin solo. John Fer
ris rendered a well received violin
solo, while two numbers which will be
used ht this year's concert, to be
staged some time in February, were
rendered by the club.
It is planned to stage a light opera
as part of this season's concert and
already practice is being held each
Tuesday and Saturday.
YOUNG WORKERS

Backed Candidate Addressed
by F. S. HowelL
BE AMERICANS TOST
Thirty-nint young high school
Hughes workers who helped reduce
the Wilson majority in Nebraska
held a banquet at the Rome hotel
last evening.
F. S. Howell, chairman of the re
publican county central committee,
gave them a short talk.
"I regret that the latest returns
from our recent election have some
what cooled the ardor of the pre-election
republican spirit," "id Mr.
Howell, "but a lesson Is to be learned
from one of these campaigns. After
the heat pi the battle has passed we
settle back into an American spirit.
the campaign was a partisan one
where we chose our would-be stand
ard bearer and followed the best
fight that we could to take him to
victory.
we nave in this room a type ot
the American citizen and when you
are grown to manhood the future of
the United States will rest in you.
"We sometimes lose dignity in po
litical discussion, but when the elec
tion is over and our president is
chosen it is the duty of every patri
otic citizen, regardless of preference
or tor whom he may have worked,
to assist that president so far as it
is in his power so to do. If he then
does not measure up to your ideal,
cross swords with the party that put
mm tnere, tour years nenct.
The boys showed their appreciation
and republican spirit by giving Mr.
Howell three cheers, followed by
their high school yell, The following
were in auenuance:
