NORFOLK CROWDS GROW.
Senator Allen Admits Norfolk I'M

Senator Allen thinks Norfolk is i'm
proving in the way of public meet
ings. He has always held something
of a grievance against Norfolk on ac-
count of the lack of interest evinced
by Norfolk people in regard to public
meetings.
Senator Allen presided at the owen
meeting in the Auditorium. The lower
floor was entirely filled and even Sen
ator Allen admitted that it was a good
sized crowd, He commented again on
the fact that Norfolk as the center of
population for this section should have
all the big political gatherings and
that the way to secure big speakers
was to furnish the crowds and not ex-

THAT NORTH LINE EXCURSION.
Railroad Officials Will Be Approached
as to October Trip.

If it is possible for the railroad COM
pany to furnish the necessary accom-
modations the Norfolk visiting excur-
sion may be carried out during the
coming Trip county rush. If this is
done a Norfolk day will be named at
the registration points at the end of
the Bonesteel line and special train
Of tourist cars chartered. The trip
would then be made as planned, with
stops at all stations for visits.
That these plans can be carried out
is not al ogether probable on account
of the strain to which the railroad may
be put to handle the great Trip move
ment of landseekers.
Before being presented to local bust
ness men the matter will be taken VI
with the railroad officials.

He Stopped the Train.

Fremont Tribune John Haterkorn,
a carpet beater, has complained to the
Fremont authorities that tla Union
Pacific railroad company runs some Of
its trains through the city without

korn bases his complaint on an alleged
incident by which he came near get

the bell was not rung, and on that ac-
count he did not see the engine till 1t
was within a few feet of him.
Mr.. Haferkorn says he wanted TO
give the engineer a piece of his mind,
and with that object in view waved his
arms frantically for him to stop the
train. The engineer brought the train
to a standstill and dismounted from
the cab, demanding to know what was
wanted

Haferkorn, "for Why you don't ring dat

SOLVE BABY PROBLEM.
Spokane Church lnstaIls a Creche
Where Babies Are Stored.

Spokane, WASH Sept. 26.-Mothers
who say they are too busy to go to
church on Sunday mornings because
infant members of the household re-
Quire their attention, cannot plead
oyerwork or offer that as an excuse
any longer, as Rev. A, c. Grier pastor
of the First Uniyersalst church, has
installed a creche where the babies
may be stored during the services. A
capable caretaker and nurses have
been provided, the babies are checked
in a way that will avoid confusion,
and they receive as much care as
though their mothers had charge The
plan was tried last Sunday and worked
out in a way that earned the admira-
ton of many. 1t is believed that this
is the first time a creche has been
established by a church, and 1t is ex-
pected that the plan will be followed
by other churches in Spokane.

Moore was sentenced to four years
in the state prison--one year for bur
glary and three years for an indisreet
talk which he advanced with the mis-
taken idea of furthering his own in
terests.
Was Caught With the Goods.
When John Moore, who is a young
man of twenty-seven, was arrested one
night at Battle Creek as he was max
ing an exit from a robbed shoe store,
he was caught with the goods" He
was making away with nine pair Of
shoes and though he dropped eight
pairs when arrested he still hung to a
pair of patent feathers just his size
Two other burglars escaped in the
darkness but Moore was jailed.
Agreed to Plead Guilty.
When court met at Madison yester-
day afternoon Moore was ready to
plead guilty and escape with mini
mum sentence. From one to ten
years is the penalty for burglary.
Moore stood to draw a year But he
talked. Now he's down to Lincoln
for four.
Moore Was Smart.
Moore was smart" After he
pleaded guilty" he thought he
would utilize his position in the
spot light for a little talk and
plea. Then Judge Welch started to
ask questions. His prison time began
to draw compound interest.
Moore, it developed, lived no.
where. He had no parents. He had
never done any work that he could ac-
count for He had come to Battle
Greek from Valentine. He said he
walked to Valentine and walked
back. He was not guilty but under
the circumstances was willing to
plead guilty.
The new notation that Judge WEIGH
made in the docket was four years.

Pastures and Fall Flowing.
The greatest benefit will be to pas
lures which were getting scant and
yellow. But the rains benefit to hui
mauty Is not Of minor Importance. The
drought made roads, outside of the
sprinklcd business district in Norfolk,
distrossiugly uncomfortable to ride
over because of the clouds of dust
which wheels and hools easily raised.
It will be possible now to travel over
a country road with comfort.
The benefit to fall blowing must not
be overlooked. A considerable amount
of blowing is not done, and some that
was started had to be abandoned be-
cause of the difficulty of turning the
stubborn dry soil
The government in its weekly fore
cast predicted rains for this section
of Nebraska week ago. Several days
ago the government guessed again,
and with better results.
The Moon Did II.
Local people, some of the old ducks
who depend on goose bones and "rhu-
matiZ" for advance information on the
weather informed the weather editor
early in the week that rain would not
come until there was change of
moon, which was due last night. Their
predictions were fully verified. Rain
started last night right on schedule
time. Hurrah for the goose boners and
"rhumatiZers," to whom we take off
our summer hat and don our winter
underwear!
Frost Now.
The rain is likely to be followed by
cold and frost, but ii can't even nip

Some Norfolk people whose blood is
rather thin, started fires in their
stoves and furnaces Saturday morn
ing, so damp and chilly was the air.
The rain in Norfolk measured four
