a Tale of an Ak.

Long Pine Journal: Considerable
excitement took place on Main
street near the pharmacy. A fireman
from Norfolk has been pay
ing attention to certain mans wife
and while the fireman was making a
visit at the home of the woman her
husband came and an exciting scene
took place. The husband picked up
an ak and the chase began. When the
two men reached the drug store the
man with the ak was about ten feet
in the rear. Seeing that he was about
to lose his game the pursuer threw
his weapon and it went crashing
through two of the windows in the
hardware store. For the balance of
the evening the fireman made himself
scarce. When he ran into the drug
store he was a badly scared man and
the chances are that he will keep out
of sight for some time, as it is under
stood that the husband intends to
carve him, unless he gets a lady of
his own.

NORFOLK WILL LIGHT
Up FOR TR|PP RUSH
NORFOLK AVENUE TO BE AGAIN
FEsTooNEp WITH LIGHTS.

When the night trains of the North
western pull through Norfolk next
month, Rosebud-bound with their hun
dreds of Tripp land seekers, the pass
ing thousands will at least have a
glimpse of a brilliantly lighted busi-
ness thOrOughfaTe as their trains cross
Norfolk avenue.
The light strands used during the
chautauqua will be used to festoon
Norfolk avenue again with a solid
stream of light during the big Tripp
rush
The city council last night voted
$50 towards the expense of the lights
and w. J. Stadelman, who appeared
before the council stated, that the re-
naming amount necessary to be
raised will be secured without making
an additional appeal to the business
men who originally purchased the
lights.
The incandescent lights will be on
during the entire period OF the regis.
tration, from October to II and pos
sibly longer. AS part of a Norfolk
advertising scheme they will be of
great value and will to certain ex-
tent overcome the fact that the
specials pass through the city during
the night.
