TANP[R WITH GAS LAMPS.
There is Trouble Brewing for
Several Youths.
HAVE EMPLOYED A DETECTIVE,
Unscrupulous Young Men in Norfolk
Who Have Tempered With the Or
dlnance and Lights Will be Arrest
ed Before Very Many Days.


There is trouble brewing for few
young men in Norfolk who have made
the gas meter work overtime and who
didn't meter in the cellar either. In
all probability the middle of next
week will land several well known
youths behind the bars of the city
Jail for tampering with the city or.
dinance and at the same time the
gas lamps on the street corners.
While the lights are supposed, ac-
cording to contract, to be turned on
at certain times of the dark nights,
there is no provision which says the
company shall furnish all out of doors
with its gaseous product during the
sunlit hours of the day. This is what
some of the INSCRIPTIONS of the city
seem to think, however, and finding
the valves closed tightly in the day
time have taken it upon themselves
to secure the supply.
Half Dozen Cases.
A half dozen or more cases have
been located where the street lights
were turned loose during the day and
would run gas for hours into the open
air. 1t may be fun for the guilty fel-
lows but it is mighty expensive for
the gas company and they purpose
stopping the game.
Detective is Employed.
A detective has been employed to
do nothing but keep his eye out and
he is just now busily engaged in col
lecting evidence through which there
may be no loop hole for escape when
the defendants are brought before the
court. The fine for this business is a
heavy one and every means will be
employed to give the limit of the law
to the guilty ones.

HE WAS MARRIED LAST NIGHT

Stop the Game and II Would Have
Been Stopped II the Base Ball Star
Had Not OVerruled Point With Cash
Oakdalc, Nob., oct. 2S.-Spccinl to
The News: Although the season for
base bali Is closed and contests on
the EridirOn are now the center of
interest, Sam Lctherby famous
throughout Nebraska for his work In
the box and at one time II star ON
the university team made n home
run stunt here last evening that was
spectacular in the extreme and will
attract the attention of the fanscVcry
where He made the base In the face
Of formidable opposition, and was wei
coined homo with flowers, valuable
gifts, and II wedding supper, In spite
Of the efforts of the short stop to put
him out on third.
The details of the play are thus:
Sunday evening Lothorby was en-
gagged in practice game, He hired
one of the very swclcst livery rigs
in town and started out around the
diamond. South of town on n grade
there was another rig ahead of him
which the star of the diamond thought
he could pass. He tried, but for some
reason was caught out on n swift
grounder, rcsult--a badly smashed bug
gy and n runaway. He proceeded on
to the home of his intended and sent
back word to the liveryman that the
tongue had come down and the buggy
was reduced to kindling wood in the
runaway that followed. The livery
man was suspicious; he had adjusted
the neckyokc straps himself and
knew that 1t was impossible for the
tongue Of the vehicle to drop He
therefore went out himself and in
vestigatcd. finding that there had been
road race. Yesterday he represent
ed to Letherby that 1t would be prop
er for him to put up for the damages,
but Sam showed no inclination to
make the owner of the rig feel right
in the premises
The livery man, however, knew a
thing or two about the game, appar-
emily, and when he realized that Lcth-
erby was likely to make the home
stunt without considering his point,
he appealed to the umpire, who, in
this particular instance was a Neigh
officer.
The wedding was to take place at
7 o'clock last night, but the officer
and the liveryman called off the game
for a decision at 6, serving papers on
Sam that read and looked like a war
rant for his arrest. The play was "A
good one and there was but one way
for Mr.. Lethcrby to win the game ap-
parently and make home, and that
was for him to pay up and this he
did and reached the home plate, amid
the applause Of the spectators.
The name of the bride is Miss Flora
Price whose home is south Of this
city and the wedding ceremony was
performed last evening, before mum
Der of friends and relatives. The
bride is popular among her acquaint-
anccs and Mr. Lcthcrby's reputation
ON the base BAH field gives an interest
in the event to the people of the en-
tire state who viii hope that his lat
est home run proves one of the most
satisfactory he ever made in his life.

ment among the members of the rganiza-
ton seemed to be unanimous against the
placing of Lees statue in the Capitol and
it was decided to protest against it. The
veterans regarded the resolutions adopted
by the w. r. c. Tuesday evening as more
voluminous than was necessary, and after
indorsing that project it was referred to a
committee. which drafted substitute resolu-
lions to the following effect:
This encampment has learned of the
contemplated action the part of the leg
islature of the state Of Virginia to place in
Statuary Hall in the Capitol in Washington
a statue of Gen. Robert E. Lee, and since
We are deeply sensible of the manifest inn
propriety in thus placing in a conspicuous
position in the Capitol the statue of one
whose only claim to prominence was the dis
tnction gained as enemy of his country,
it is resolved by this tihirty-fifth annual en-
campment, that. having in mind solely the
effect of this action, if carried out, upon
tie minds Of the coming genera tons of our
people, who will thus see of the chief
exemplars of treason exalted in high places,
we most emphatically protest against this
proposed action, and most respectfully re-
quest that the Statuary Hall in the Capitol
be kept free for all time from the admission
of any or all statues which represent In
any form or degree acts Of rebellion or dis
loyalty"
The resolutions are signed by Arthur Hen
bricks John McElroy. Calvin farnsworth,
Jerome F. johnson and Alfred c. Irvine
