Drowsy Passengers i'm the BurIing-
ton Union station Mt Lincoln,
Neb., Robbed by Wholesale.

Lincoln, Neb., April 25.--Passengers
on Burlington train No. Al were held
up and robbed of $1,000 early Friday
morning as the train was leaving the
Burlington union station in Lincoln.
The train has been robbed thr,.
times within 100 miles of Lincoln
The robbery last fall netted $50, 900
to the men who did the work and no
trace of them has ever been found.
The work Friday morning was ac-
complished mostly while the passen.
gers from branch and feeder lines Of
the Burlington were in the depot
awaiting the arrival of transcontinen-
tai trains Many of the persons in
the depot were asleep and did not
know they had been robbed until
awakened by the noise as the train
was pulling into the station. The
presence of the robbers was first dis
covered by a woman. She screamed,
and the people in the waiting room
gathered around her. Investigation
proved that majority of them had
been robbed. The confusion permit
ted the robbers to escape. Later they
made their presence known on board
an immigrant sleeper. Conductor and
porter, with passengers, were herded
into one end OF the car and the
search instituted by one man while
the other held the crowd back with
guns. They left the train between

Signs of Summer.

Notwithstanding the unusual cold
spell of last week, | am satisfied
that summer will be on us right
away, now" said well known citi-
zen today. 1.-THE catbird sang his
first song IN Columbia on last Satur-
day, the 18th, and on the 7th the first
swallows came in from the South.
These are sure signs, but If any more
proof was needed the arrival of the
Martins on last Tuesday furnishes it.
Whenever the Martins come, It's an
lnfallible sign that there's nothing
doing In the cold weather line for SIX
months, excepting, of course. black
berry winter. Do you know" con-
tinued the ornithologist, that no one
has ever been able to find out how far
south the Martins go in the winterf
AS far into the Southern oceans as
any ship ever went i'm the winter, there
the Martins were found. They spend
the winter months South, and return
here In the summer. Their arrival is
always sure messenger OF warm
weather. A few years ago in New
Orleans on their return from the South,
the Martins struck the city in unusual
numbers. 60 thick were they that one
could not see the sky overhead for
them, and the Mayor of the city called
a special meeting of the city council
to devise means by which the birds
could be exter1ninated. Their stay was
only short visit, however, ana before
the council hit upon a solution OF the
pests they sailed away for the North.

How Maury County's Court House
Was Built.

There are very few people ia Maury
county who know that the imposing edi-
fee which sits in the center of the
square of Maury county's capital and
called the court house was the work OF
almost one man. There is a story in
connection with the building OF that
Structure that is extremely interesting
and has never been printed, 80 far as
we know. Mr.. J. P. McGaw, one of the
oldest citizens of Maury county, who
has lived in Columbia for sixty seven
years, was In town the other day, and in
a conversation with some friends the
story came out. Mr.. McGaw says that
the court house was built almost entirely
by Nimrod Porter, in his day one Of the
most popular men the county had ever
known, having served as Sheriff of the
county for twenty-five years. During
his long tenure in Office, Mr.. Porter be-
came heavily involved in debt by gong
surety for his friends. He was kind
hearted man and could not refuse
favor when any one asked it OF him
Suddenly he found himself staggering
ip debt to the amount of about $40,00O
Many of his friends failed to meet the
debts they had contracted with him as
surety, and he was held responsible
He sold everything he had and raked
tand scraped every cent he could get
ogether and applied it to his debts.
Porter was an honest man. But all that
he could do did not wipe out the debt.
He still owed large sum, and much of
that remaining was owed to the county
The county was then badly in need of a
court house las it is today.) Porter
made this proposition to the county;
that he would build the court house
himself il the county would ljquidate
his debt. The offer was accepted. The
brick was procured and Porter went to
work. He labored day after day for
months-one solitary workman. Fin
ally, the building of the structure was
completed; Porter's debt was
wiped out and Maury county
had court house. That's the |
story of how the court house was built
1t begins to look as If it will require
another sheriff Of misfortune with the
same honesty and determination to pay

day who were citizens of the town when
Mr.. McGaw was boy. They are Cap

velous work of q. A. Parker, Sr. He
chased liner to the dump in his field
and got the ball and had it back in the
diamond inside of ten minutes. At the
bat he was "the goods" He swatted
the air in manner that has never been
seen here before, and one time when he
got on first he actually ran to third base
while the right fielder was chasing a
three base hit.

however, to be in the next game. The
