NOBODY WANTED OLD TRUNK
Valuable Chest Of Gold Watches is
Kicked from Camp TO Camp.
MISSING TRUNK FINALLY FoUNr
IL Left in the Tall weeds On th'
High school Grounds at Ne
braska Csty by Gangs
OF WORKINGS.

Nobody around Nebraska City seems TO
have wanted the trunk, the property OF
the A F. Smith Jewelry company of
Omaha, carried by Will Kortlsng, the
salesman, and containing 5000 to 5000
worth of jewelry, including 900 gold
watches
The Kortlang trunk was checked at the
Omaha Union station July 81. routed to
Nebraska City and placed upon a Missouri
Pacific passenger train. So far as the Smith
company. Kortlang and the Missouri Pa
clfic were concerned, nothing more was
ever heard OF the trunk until Monday,
when, safe and unopened. It was found out
in the tall &c las and weeds on the Ne
braska City High school grounds.
The i IS Of and tho finiing Of the trunk
that contained a small fortune IL told by
Baggsgeman Wallace, who came in over
the Missouri Pacific Tuesday morning.
Wallace says the trunk was checked in
the regular way at the Omaha station July
81 and placed on the train. In the same
car we're several trunks belonging to mem
bers Of a party OF bridge builders and cleo
trio linemen going TO Nebraska City to DO
some work In some way it got into the
pile with their trunks and when Nebraska
city was reached, was dumped off with
when all OF the trunks were standing on
the depot platform, a drayman came along
and loading UP the trunks. carted them
away. 1t so happened that at that time
both the bridge builders and linemen
we're working in the same vicinity and
again the trunks were all dumped in one
pile
kicked About the Camp.
When It came TO picking out their trunks
neither the bridgemen nor the linemen
claimed the old trunk containing the
jewelry For several days 1t ives kicked
about the camp, Finally the linemen moved
up to the high school grounds and the
trunk fun of jewelry went along, though
IL was not claimed. A few days ago the
llnemen had occasion TO make another
move. but, as they ala not care to pay
the charges on q trunk that was not their
own, they told the drayman to leave the
treasure trunk behind and In the high
grass on the High school grounds. where
IL was found.
Monday. Fred Brooks, one OF the line
men, in talking with the Nebraska City
agent of the Missouri Pacific, happened TO
mention the old trunk and spoke OF the
travels that II had made from camp TO
camp. The agent Immediately made an
investigation and discovering that the
check bore the Same numbers as the Rortr
lang trunk took It to the depot and Tues
day morning sent 1t back TO the Smith
company.
Baggageman Wallace states that there
ia no suspicion that the trunk was ever
stolen, but instead became . maverick
and simply was oarted about by, bridge
and lnemen, none Of them laying any
claim to It, nor having any knowledge OF
It's contents.

ministration would be an immortal
thing in comparison to the short-lived
principles of Pennsylvania law. The
rules of property, which ought to be
as steadfast as the hills, will become
as unstable as water. To avoid this
great calamity I know of no resource
but that of stare decisis. I claim
nothing for the great men who have
gone before us On the score OF their
marked and manifest superiority; but
I would stand by their decisions be-
cause they have passed into the law
and become part of it, have been re-
lied and acted on, and rights have
grown up under them which it is un-
Just and cruel to take away
eff the supreme court Of our State
would follow this principle possibly
it would be easier for the citizens, in
cluding the members of the bar, to
form some opinion as to what its de-
cision would be in important matters,
or at least determine what the law is. .
