Judge Wheeler TO Decide whether
Difference Means Money.
Because the pumpkins which they raised
from seed furnished them by the Growers
Canning company Of Council Bluffs we're
cow pumpkins instead Of large cheese
pumpkins, Blizzard brothers, gardeners
and fruit growers Of this vicinity are
plaintiffs In a suit against the Canning
company and the Younkerman Seed com
pany Of this city, the trial OF which was
begun before Judge Wheeler in the dis
trict court yesterday. The sut was origin
ally on the law docket, but by agreement
of both sides is being tried to the court
without jury.
1t is now up to Judge o. D. Wheeler to
give an expert ruling on pumpkins.
In 1908 Blizzard Bros, entered into q
contract with the Growers Canning COM
pany to grow pumpkins for canning pur-
poses, It being part of the agreement that
the canning company should furnish the
seed. At the time that the plaintiffs were
ready to begin operations the canning
company found itself short OF seed and it
is alleged, directed the Younkerman Seed
company to furnish Blizzard Bros. with
the requisite quantity OF large cheese
pumpkin seed.
The seed produced bountiful crop Of
apparently fine pumpkins, but when Biz
zard Bros, hauled the crop to the canning
company's factory. the foreman declined to
accept 1t on the grounds that the pump
lkins were Of the "cow" variety and not
suitable for canning purposes.
Blizzard Bros, were forced to haul the
pumpkins home again and not having
herd Of dairy COWS to which to feed them
the crop they claim was dead loss
The Younkerman Seed company pleads in
defense that it sold the seeds without
any guaranty, that being the manner in
which all seeds are sold by all seed com
panies. Blizzard Bros, sue for $3.50

Shortly before midnight Thursday
Charles Claar, special officer, noticed
two men in the warehouse Of the Empkle-
Shugart-Hill Hardware company on South
Main street. While Claar telephoned to
police headquarters II. +. Hobus, residing
at 21s Story street who happened to be
passing at the time, was placed by Claar
to keep watch in front OF the building.
In the meantime the burglars quietly, but
expeditiously, made their exit from a rear
window, from which a pane Of glass had
been extracted and by which they evil
IDENTIFY effected an entrance.
When the police reached the place and
mado a search of the premises with mem
bers Of the firm, who had been sum
moned, It was evident that the thieves
had been after firearms. The cases con-
tanning revolvers and rifles had been ran
sacked and the drawers containing cart
ridges had been overhauled. One revolver
found on a counter had been fitted with
cartridges OF a caliber too large for the
weapon and had been discarded.
1t Is believed the thieves were frightened
away before they secured any booty, al
though a complete inventory Of the stock
would have to be taken in order to asceT-
tain II anything was stolen.

It is one Of the first things to be
said about Macaulay. that he was in
exact accord with the common average
sentiment of his day on every subject
on which he spoke. His superiority
was not OF that highest kind which
leads a man to march In thought on
the outside margin Of the crowd, watch
ing them. sympathizing with them, hop
ing for them. but apart Macaulay
was one Of the middle class crowd in
his heart, and only rose above It hy
plendid attainments and extraordinary
