THE FIRST CLASH.

THE FIRST CLASH.
The chair had not listened to the
reading of this communication very
closely, but he evidently had an ink,
ling of it's contents, for he remark.
ed:
Mr.. Sheriff, I 20 not think that we
will grant this amount asked for as a
whole. We have not the funds to dc
SO. You are asking for altogether toe
much.''
Il shall wait and hear from the
board" answered the Sheriff, who was
present to explain his requests Il
understand that they have something
to say in these matters. The chair is
not the whole board
well, 1 am only telling you this,
Mr.. Sheriff. And there is another mat
ter I want to bring to your atten-
ton. 1t was mentioned at the last
meeting of the board, and if it had been
brought to your attention l don't think
that we would have heard from you"
shouted Hustace
IF you have anything to bring to
the attention of the head of the police
department you can do so in writing"
responded Iaukea blandly.
Il have a perfect right to address
you now at this meeting on any matter
choose, Mr.. Sheriff. 1 want you to
understand that. Something happen
ed. and I don't want it to happen
again. If it does you will hear from
this board and something will be
done"
Mr.. Hustace. 1 am not here to be
talked to by you. If you have any
thing to say to me or complain of, do
so in writing and you will be an
swered in writing
I'VE haven't got time for all this
letter writing. We have wasted i. too
much time now in writing letters to
the Sheriff's department. And 1 want
you to understand that 1 am to be
treated with respect. This board is
entitled to respect from you, Mr.. Iau-
kea"
1.-The board will always get the re-
speed from me that it deserves, Mr.
Hustace."
And if you were a gentleman you
would not talk the way you are do
ing" exploded the chairman, closing
the incident for the time being.
HUsTACE REPROvEs THE BOARD.
While this little dialogue was
hurtling over their heads, the mem
bers were having little confab among
themselves at the foot of the table
The sudden calm which followed Hus-
tace's last shout disclosed the fact
that the consultation was being car
ried on in Hawaiian.
Gentlemen, you must talk in Eng
fish while you are here" he said re-
provingly.
What was that you said?" asked
Archer.
Il said 1 want to understand what
is going on here" explained the chair
man.
The members took this little call
down humbly and went on with their
work of voting appropriations. Hus-
tace insisted on voting largely for
road work out of the general funds,
explaining that it was necessary to
keep the large part of the special road
money piled up for rainy day. Archer
questioned this, but withdrew his OBJ
jections after the vote for the Eva dis

Sewer district No. q" created at a
recent meeting of the Norfolk council,
was "uncreated" Saturday evening by
vote of three to two. 1t had been
announced that bids for the construc-
ton of the Second district, which runs
from Pasewalk to Park avenue on
South Fifth street would be opened
Saturday, but before the bids were
opened circulators of the petition APP
peared and stated that they thought
that the sewer could be constructed
cheaper in the spring than at this time.
The councilmen differed as to whether
or not the matter should run over, a
motion to reject all bids and return
them unopened finally prevailing.
Councilmen Buchholz, Garvin and
Spellman voted to reject bids, Council
men Haase and Dolan standing in IA
sewer.
The steel car which has been used
on the Norfolk-Columbu branch of
the Union Pacific, has been taken off
the run for time at least and sent
into the Omaha shops where 1t was
made. Railroad men have found a Sc
rious objection to the new car in it's
present form. They say that the steel
construction makes the car too thin
and that it is too hard to heat. AS
steel conducts heat easily they figure
that the car will tend to be cold in the
winter and hot in the summer. Since
the car has been in service on the Co.
lumbus line it was found that given
the same amount of steam over night
the steel car would be twenty-five de-
grees colder in the morning than the
smoking car. Outside of this the new
steel designs are considered a success.
The car is said to be safer in case of
a wreck and the entrance placed near
the center of the car something after
the English style, is convenience.

such tragic death at Norfolk week

Sermon on the Norfolk Tragedy.

Wayne Herald: A startling tragedy
was the murder of Mrs. Valley Netha-
way at Norfolk by her husband, and
his subsequent suicide. Here is a
case covering the whole gamut of
conjugal experience-affection and de-
votion, estrangement and alienation,
and at last deadly hate and murder
and self destruction.
Such a case affords no other illus
tration more significant of the vicissi-
tudes of human existence. In the
midst of life we are in death. but
more solemn and impressive still, In
the midst of seeming security and
happiness we are involved in danger
and crushing calamity. In this
strange incident there is only a fresh
admonition of the weakness and I'M
certainty which continually balances
and Offsets the stability which human
nature daily reveals.
To those persons who repudiate the
idea that the ways of man are ordered
by fate, such awful events present a
problem which seems impossible to
reconcile with the theory that people
in this world are the architects of
their own destiny.
There is quite enough in the influ-
enna of moral discinline and training

STILL AFTER HORSE THIEVES
Big Fund Raised in Cunning County for
Capture OF Zahnow Thieves.

West Point, Neb., Dec. 16.-Special
to The News: The friends and neigh
bors, both in country and town, of
Robert Zahnow, the farmer whose val
liable team was stolen from the streets
of Bancroft three weeks ago have sub
scribed fund Of $315.00 to be given
as a reward for the recovery of the
stolen property and the arrest of the
thieves. This makes a total reward
of $515 offered in this case. The team
was one of the finest in Cunning county
and was valued at 5000. Up to this
time not the slightest clue has been
obtained as to their whereabouts or
the identity of the thieves.

AUXILIARY TO CENTRAL SOCIETY
Tilden Branch Was Organized Satur-
day With Membership of Thirty.
three, Largely Farmers-Becomine
Dangerous for Horse Thieves.

The Tilden Live Stock Protective
association is the latest auxiliary to
the North Nebraska Live Stock Pro
tective association, with headquarters
at Norfolk. The Tilden association
was organized Saturday afternoon with
a membership of thirty-three, practic-
ally all being farmers living tributary
to that town. Messrs. Geo. Losey and
Adrian Craig represented the central
association at the meeting and assist
ed in the organization. The officers
elected are: President, j. E. Bolton;
vice president, A. NJ. Jones; secretary,
II. w. Kingery; treasurer, John Mich
aelson; captain, Geo Connely. The
new organization will adopt the by
laws and rules governing the parent
association, and will work in harmony
with it for the suppression of horse
stealing and the capture of thieves.
1t will only be a comparatively
short time before practically every
town in north Nebraska will have such
an association all allied and working
with the main organization. When
that time comes it will be practically
impossible for horse thief to get any
great distance with a stolen animal.
The efficiency of the north Nebraska
association was illustrated a short
time ago when team, buggy and har-
ness, taken from farmers near Battle
Creek, were returned to their owners
by Captain Losey of the association,
after hard chase which lasted three
days and extended over many miles of
country 1t is true the thieves were
not apprehended, because they aban-
doned the stolen property when they
found the chase after them was so
hot that it became uncomfortable, but
every dollar of value taken was re-
turned to the owners.
With a strong central organization
working in harmony with a number
of auxiliary association, horse stealing
will in time become so unpopular that
it will cease to be profitable in this
section of the country,
