Before what was probably the larg

the Armory Hall the Cairo High
School basketball team last night wGr
from the Padueah hIgil school team
by a score Of q te Z. The Cairo lads
started off with rush, and kept the
pace to the end.
The Kentuckians played their besr
and several times prevented the local
forwards from making the basket.
Few fouls were made, the game being
clean throughout, and roughness was
most conspicuous by its absence
Capt. Ent had his men on their toes
all the time by his coaching, and the
local rooters spurred their players on
by their songs and rythmetic yells.
The Padueah lads are gentlemen and
put up clean game, making good
impression on the spectators and tn"
Cairo players. 1t is probable that
the Cairo team will go TO Paducah
soon to play a return game with the
Paducah high school.

Just One Week Since the
Sun Has ShOnc in Omaha

It is Just one week since the sun shone
on Omaha. November %, sunshine 6 per
cont" is the matter-of-fact way in which
the records of the weather bureau tell the
story. From that day on the percentage
column has been filled with zeros, with the
single exception OF a lonely little 20 per
cent glimpse of the sun on November Is.
The rest has been shadow and fog-mostly
fog.
Two per cent of sunshine means the
equivalent of just exactly 1440 minutes
continuous brightness-not an extravagantly
generous allowance.
Long, doleful days of half mist, half rain,
have for the week been followed by eve
nings Of fog. This fog is real and material,
the real imported English variety. A weird
effect Is produced by the illuminated signs
OF the downtown section blazing their feeble
best against the moist, o~bscuring haze.
Each little globe is surrounded by a glim-
mering halo Of refracted light. The strug-
Cling glow gives the peculiar impression
that the lights are floating in midair with
no earthly attachment.
The unusual atmospheric conditions have
given the theorizing philosophers a rare
opportunity. Eclipses OF the moon and ever
the vagarler Of Hailey's rambling comet
have been blamed for the adness Of the
skies, and then there arc some who say II
is just the clouds.

NEGRO IS BURNED At STAkE
Preacher Who Shot White Man at
Cochran, Ca, is Lynched.
FUEL PILED HIGH ABOVE HEAD
victim, in Qualification Of His
Act, Says Automobile OF Man
He shOt Scared His
Team.

COCHRAN, Ca, Dec. 2.-John Harvard,
a negro preacher, who shot and fatally in
jured viii d. Booth two miles from this
place late this afternoon, was captured
by a mob Of enraged citizens five miles
from here last night at 10 o'clock and burned
at a stake, more thar a carload OF light
wood, It is said, being heaped about the
body.
Booth is a we'll known business man Of
Hawkinsville, Ca, and was enroute TO
Cochran in an automobile when the shoot
ing occurred. He drove up behind Harvard,
who was in front Of him In a wagon.
Harvard charged that Booths machine
frightened his mules. He drew a pistol,
after a few words, and fired upon Booth,
three shots taking effect. Booth returned
the fire and It was learned after the
negro was captured that he was slightly
wounded in two places. He was found in
a barn three miles from the place where
the shooting occurred.
Booth was brought to this place immedi
ately after the shooting. Physicians said
tonight there was little hope Of his re-
covery. He has a wife and six children.
Officers from Hawkinsville in automobiles
and carrying bloodhounds went lmmedi-
ately to the scene of the shooting, but q
party Of enraged citizens was quickly
formed and tracked the negro on horse
back to his hiding place. He showed fight,
but was suffering so severely from the ef-
fects Of his injuries that he could offer
but little resistance. He freely admitted
the shooting and is said, justified his action
by the fact that Booths automobile fright
ened his mules.
Harvard was given an opportunity TO
pray, after which he was securely bound
with chains to a stake. The fuel was piled
high above his head and the torch applied.
The roaring of the flames prevented any
statement he might have made from being
heard.
Omaha daily bee., 1909-12-03

Omaha is not suffering alone. woeful
tales of impossible roads and suffering,
neglected cornfields come from the sur
rounding country. Up in Burt county, *.
N. Ashley, assistant state veterinarian, is
using four horses on q light runabout to
pull him over the bottomless roads. The
contestants from Percival, Ia, in the fid-
dlers' contest at Nebraska City last night
told the assembled crowd there they man
aged to arrive by the assistance of six
horses and a mule. Rural mail carriers
are badly hampered in their deliveries. The
whole country is in a state of discomfort
as a result OF the muTky weather. 1t will
take many days of sunshine and drying
winds to restore the fields and farms to a
normal condition again.
Railroads have been affected by the water
and in southeastern Nebraska, where the
damp period has had full intensity, and
where the streams were at flood while
there was snow in the northern part of the
state, the tracks are soft and unusual de-
lays have resulted, There has been forty
eight hours of continuous rain in Gage
county.
Omaha temperatures for the month ram
bled all the way from n to Il degrees, with
a maximum variation within one day Of 30
degrees. The total precipitation for the
month was heavy, reaching 6.2t inches, OF
which a trifle over five inches was snow.
