in this city. He is expected here the
first of the year, after which time the
rooms will be open every night and prop.
erly managed. The room is a little
short Of some necessary furniture, which
the league would like to borrow for the
present.
The telephone gang that has been
doing line work between this city and
Creighton for several weeks past is here
and is going to do "the right thing by
the local exchange, making the repairs
and improvements spoken of in n recent
item. superintendent Denny is also
here and will start them out on the line
of work needed. The telephone com.
pany evidently appreciates the fact that
the people Of Norfolk have usually nc
corded it fair treatment and they believe
in reciprocating by making their service
the best obtainable.

Oakley Again at Large.

The Ponca Journal in it's write up of
the session of district court recently
held there, has this item of local interest
The case of Edwin G. Oakley, who
has beer languishing in Jail for the past
four months on the charge of robbing a
little peddler boy named Abram Bashurd
last August, was called on Friday
morning and was dismissed on what is
technically called a 'nolle p%rosequi.
The facts of the case are that the boy
did not appear as a witness and the state
was unable to prosecute the case with.
out him, and hence there was no course
left but to set Oakley at liberty.
County Attorney Hench had been as.
sured by Railroad Detective Breslin
that he would have the boy here, but
when the time came the lad was no.
where to be found and it was believed
that he had been bought off, The only
other way TO have secured his presence
at the trial would have been to place
him under bond to appear, and as he
was unable to give bond, he would have
had to be confined in Jail along with his
assailant during the past four months.
So probably the course that was pur'
sued was the wisest after all, and Oak.
ley's punishment, which was almost
solitary confinement, was probably
sufficient to teach him a good lesson,
He lost no time in shaking the dust OF
Dixon county from his feet a soon as
hewas released"

NORFOLK PEOPLE IN IT.

Omaha illustrated Bee Gives Prominence
to Present and Former Residents.
Present and former Norfolk people
contributed a generous share to the
Christmas issue of the Omaha Illustrated
Bee, no less than three of them being
represented in its interesting and beam
tifully printed columns. First and
foremost is Miss Lucy s. Williams first
article on "Nebraska's Public School
System" This contribution treats
largely of the relation of the school to
the home, is well written, shows careful
thought and a wide range of observa.
ton. Judging from the first of the
series it should be the pleasure as we'll as
a duty of school patrons and teachers to
give the subject in hand careful consid-
GRAFTON as it contains much of interest
and instruction to both, but coming from
an up-to-date teachers standpoint it
should be of especial interest to mothers
whose chief interest, outside of home,
should be in school. The article is
illustrated with three fine views, one of
a school room in Crete taken on Patrons
day with tables set for refreshments and
an exhibit Of chool work adjoining the
room. Another of the children of the
first grade, Pierce school, Miss Eva B.
Mixer teacher. In this the class is repre-.
sented as taking a lesson on the sphere
at the sand table, each pupil having a
ball of compressed sand in his or her
hand. The other view shows a school
room in the Harlan building, Falls City.
A class is represented at the painting
table working from a study of a fur tree
with water colors. The article and
illustrations are a credit to Miss Will
liams, likewise to the Illustrated Bee.
Under the head of prominent Young
Business and Professional Men Of
Omaha" is given a very fine likeness of
Perry Waldron, jr., now Of the firm of
Waldron & Campbell, druggists of that
city. Perry's education was pratially
accomplished through the aid of Nor.
folks public schools and he took the first
training in his chosen calling in the
drug store of Asa X. Leonard of this
city, from whom he acquired a fund of
knowledge in the business which he I'M
doubtedly finds a great benefit in his
present location.
Then there is a picture of Chas. D.
Thompson who formerly conducted a
pharmacy business in Norfolk. He is
now the leading newspaper and maya.
zine advertising agent of Omaha with
offices in the Karbach block, Fifteenth
and Douglas street. He controls a large
and increasing business IN his line of
work.

This institute is a rare opportunity for
farmers to learn many important points
concerning their occupation and the
meetings should be largely attended by
those interested. 1t affords an oppor.
tunity for hearing the researchers and
knowledge gained by prominent agri.
culturists after years of hard work and
study and their talks will embody some
of the important facts which the univer.
sity teaches. If it's a good thing to study
for a business or q profession it is also a
good thing to study farming.
Norfolk is included in the North
Nebraska circuit, the other towns
favored being Herman, Lyons and
Randolph.
Within a few days a skeleton pro.
gram will be sent out giving the time at
which each address may be expected.

From Fridays Daily:
William Winter, ST., died at the fam.
lily home three miles north of the city at
10 80 this morning, aged ~ years, z
months and % days. Mr.. Winter had
been sick for over a year with cancer of
the stomach, which finally resulted in
his death. The funeral will take place
next Sunday afternoon at 1 30 from the
house, and will be conducted by Rev.
Mr.. Hoelzel of the st. Paul's Lutheran
church, of which the deceased was a de-
voted member.
William Winter was born in Pom.
merry, Germany, where he lived until he
was about 30 years old, when he came
to America with his father, locating in
Wisconsin in 1857. He was married As
years ago in the old country. Before
leaving the native land he served in the
Germany army, being a cavalryman
for three years, and during the civil
war in this country he was u union sol.
der, serving with the seventeenth Wis.
consin regiment. In July, 1865, with
his father, who lived until IL years ago,
he joined the German colony which
came to Nebraska, aud the two took
homesteads which are today among the
finest farms in the county, and where
he has lived continuously since, passing
away this morning on the farm his
father homesteaded 43 years ago.
Besides his wife, who still survives
him, Mr.. Winter leaves six children tc
mourn his loss, all OF whom have
reached the estate of manhood and
womanhood. These are William
Winter, jr., who livesin Wayne county
Ferdinand, @. f. and + rank, who al
live on the old place; H.. w. Winter,
member of the firm of Winter & Schulz
Of Norfolk, and county commissions,
from this district; Mrs. Herman
Schroeder, who lives in Edgewatel
park. Besides these there were five
other children, three girls and two boys
all Of whom are now dead.
Mr.. Winter reached a ripe old age
having lived to see his children al
comfortable settled for life. He wa!
one of the few remaining pioneers O.
this county, which he had helped t.
develop from a wilderness to q land O.
plenty. He had many friends in thu
