by the theft of a quantity of jewelly

the catch was broken in exactly the

The entrance was made Without awalS

no glimpse of the intruder was secured.
The Shea house MAS marked with the

also appears on a number of the houses
in that vicinity. The residents of the

BIG INDIAN CARNIVAL
NEAR DECATUR ENDS
The Omaha's Bid Their Guests
Farewell After Three Months
Entertainment.
BEGAN MIDDLE OF JULY
The Great Feast Was One Of the Old
Traditional Features of celebra-
ton Of Forefathers Re-en-
acted-other News.

Decatur Neb., Oct. 5.-The greatest
symposium ever held by the Omaha
Indians has ended abruptly and sue
cessfully This wonderful gathering
began in the middle of July, at Horse
Head lodge, and each day has been
one of intense excitement and unlim-
tied pleasure.
Representatives of all of the tribes of
the west ard south have been present
at this enormous conventicle; and their
entertainers, the Omahas, saw to it that
they went in their distant homes light
hearted and in happy spirits, loaded
down with gifts presented by the gen
erous hosts, such as ponies, liberal do
nations of money, costly blankets and
shawls and delicate and fine beadwork.
One of the few incidents to chase a
cloud across the bright horizon of this
mammoth feast was the sudden return
of the Pawnee visitors to their Okla
homa home. A telegram was received
about three weeks ago announcing the
demise of Knife Chief, by malaria
fever. Knife Chief was the leading
sachem of the tribe, and 1T was re-
quested the visitors return SO they
might be present at his funeral, which
was an immense public demonstration.
During this three months of contin-
ued feasting the Omahas have pur-
chased 100 head of prairie beef cattle
which have been devoured, and thous-
ands of dollars in money and valuable
chattels have been given away by the
generous Omahas to their Indian Wis
itors.
Taken as whole the great feast was
one of the old traditional Publications
of the Aboriniges re-enacted. The In
dams felt the inspiration, and entered
into the fro1ic with their whole heart
ana souls.
The only evidence of anything mod
ern in the grounds was<the presence of
merry round" which remained
from start to finish. The principal fea
lures of the lengthy symposium We're
the daily presentation of long distance
horse and foot races for valuae,-
prizes, and the revival of ancient Indian
dances, such as the buffalo. bear. wolf
and owl dance.

His Back Action Joke.

New York Times: A weary young
man was wandering up and down the
platform of the Long Island depot in
tent on finding room in one Of the
crowded cars, but eXcursionists We're
many and there did not appear to be
even standing room anywhere. Then
an idea occurred to him. He gave his
peaked yachting cap an official set, and
stalking to the door of the last car.
shouted: Cars ahead, please! This one
isn't going"
There were explanations low but
deep from the occupants, but never
lheless they scurried away and packed
themselves somehow or other in var
ioIs parts of the train.
The smile on the face of the young
max was childlike and bland as he set
tied himself in a corner Of the empty
car and unfolded the Sunday paper.
Presently uniformed official put his
head in the window and said: II sup
pose you're the smart Aleck who told
the people this car wasn't going? Well
you were right for once. One of our
green men heard you and uncoupled

won't be another for an hour and a

CROPS LARGELY MATuRED.
At Best There Is Likely to Be More
T,,,, A>,,r.,e of Soft Corn

At Best There Is Likely to Be More
Than Average of Soft Corn.
Des Moines, la. CA't S.-The past
week was slightly warmer than usual,
with an excess of cloudiness and rain
fall in the larger part of the state.
About half the week conditions were
favorable for drying out we'll ripencd
corn, and the helated portion of the
crop made fairly good progress toward
maturity. The greater part of the corn
crop of the state is now fully matureu
and with normal drying weather u
goodly portion may be dry enough to
be cribbed by the 18TH to the 10Th of
October The output will be unusu-
ally variable, ranging from less than
half an average up to some record
breaking yields The quality and value
for feeding and commercial purposes
will be materially above the much
larger total of 1902. Reports Indicate
that for the state at large, from ten
to fifteen per cent. of the crop is still
green and immature, exposed to some
measure of damage by killing frosts.
A week of dry, warm weather would
ripen n considerable part OF the belated
portion of the crop, though at best
there is likely to be somewhat more
than an average percentage of soft and
understandable corn in the output oil
his abnormally wet and cool summer.

FIND OF OIL AT PORTAL.
At the Spot Where behring's Were Mad
Fifteen Years Ago.


Fifteen Years Ago.
Papillion Neb., Oct. 5.-Word was
brought to Papillion to the effect that
oil has been discovered at Portal 1t
is said the water in some of the wells
cannot be used because of its oily con-
dition, and being more noticeable i'm
the we'll at the holre of Mr.. Bryant,
the Missouri Pacific section foreman.
During the Portal boom, about fifteen
years ago, some private parties made
Dorings on small scale, but owing to
the scarcity of money the matter was
dropped before any results We're OBJ
tanned. Old residents are of the opin-
ion that the oil is there. Nothing has
been done in the past few years in the
direction of making Il test, but indi-
cations are that behring's will be made
In q short time with modern 1nachin
cry The question is being agitated of
organizing a company among the citi-
ines of Portal and neighboring towns
for the purpose of raising the necessary
funds to push the work at once. Ru-
mors are that the Missouri Pacific in
tended to try and locate the oil and
will begin as soon as they are con-
vinccd the oil is there. Portal is two
niles west of Papillion.

FALLS FIFTY FEET.
FAY Fenwick Drops From Third stor,
While Washing Windows.

Des Moines, Ia, Oct. s.-Before the
Mortified gaze of a score of spectators
w. Raymond Fenwick. u years of age,
pitched headlong from the third floor
of the Eagle block, falling fifty feet
to the cement sidewalk below He was
picked up Still conscious, his head
split open and stream of blood pour
ing from his side.
Fenwick is a ianitor for Milton d.
Goldman. owning the Eagle block and
proprietor of the Goldman clothing
store. 1t is feared he was fatally hurt.
The young man was washing VIM
dows from the outside at the time. He
had just commenced his work from a
perilously narrow ledge when by
ISLANDERS in front of the l<irkwood saw
him pitch backwards, turn in the air
and light on the stone walk, his right
shoulder and head striking. The body
was picked up and carried into the
Goldman store and DIR. Bishop called

TAXES PAID PROMPTLY.
Fully 90 Per Cent. of All Due Wer,
Paid Before the list of June.

Lincoln. Neb., Oct. S.--The reports re-
celved at the office of the state treas
urer from majority of the county
treasurers of the state are to the effect
that fully 80 per cent. of ali taxes We're
paid by the LIST of June. This is due
partially to the prosperous condition
OF the people and partly to the fact that
it is cheaper to borrow money and pay
the taxes than it is to pay the penalty.
On real property the taxes delinquent
draw interest from May /, and accord
ing to the reports received there will
be little interest paid in. The fact that
90 per cent. of the taxes have been paid
is u wonderful showing. inasmuch as it
is not often that 80 per cent. is ever
