Almost $1,000 for City Schools.

Almost $1,000 has been turned over
to Norfolk public schools by Norfolk
people within the past two weeks.
That is saying a great deal for a
town of Norfolk's size and for the pur-
pose the money has been given up.
At any rate that is the sentiment SUI
perintendent F.. NJ. Hunter expresses.
"A thousand dollars in two weeks is
the best | have heard Of" says Mr..
Hunter. at shows what Norfolk peo-
pie think of their schools and it also
shows that those schools must really
deliver the goods. The confidence of
the public is a great thing and Nor
folk people have confidence in their
schools"
The $1,000 was raised by the art eX-
hibit, the class play and the operetta
by the ward schools Friday night. For
this last show money apparatus will
be purchased next year, for the play
grounds of all the schools with the
exception of the high school; a statue
for the high school comes from the re-
ceipts of the senior class play. This
will make the third statue for this
building.
IF they keep this up for twenty
years, Norfolk will have one of the
greatest high schools in the country"
said Mr.. Hunter.

Senior Montecino, tending a three or
four acre garden plot on the terrace

He is very sociable old fellow OF

a few hours with him. He is interest

He cannot boast a house but has a

simply satisfied. Yet few are the
men who have such an altogether en-
tranCing location in which to live and
work. The beauty of the hills is his
always. The great, silent mountain
peaks beyond speak to him Of higher
things. The heavens declare to him
the work and power of the great
Spirit and his little book tells him
that great Spirits revelation to man.
Thank God for the great, free and
glorious out of doors. The hills, the
mountains, the valleys, the plains, the

Chile is a great country and with

Hospital Offer Withdrawn.

Norfolk, Neb., May G. Editor
News: The statement in yesterdays

mercial club in the hospital question,
puts the whole matter in rather a pc
matter which l proposed in recent
letter to The News was advanced in
good faith and was entitled to consid.
Grafton on its merits. | would have
been glad to discuss the plan with the
directors OF the Commercial club, and
if there were features which did not
appeal to them it might have been
modified or changed in those respects.
should have been glad to meet their
ideas in every respect so far as pos
sible. But | have had no word what
ever from the club since my letter to
you, except such anonymous state
ments as have appeared in The News,
indicating that before doing anything
with this plan the club desired to see
what other projects might be called
forth by it.
The plan ! submitted was not pro.
posed as a lever to bring out other
propositions, and ! cannot permit it's
use as such. Indeed | cannot see how
any other organization could honor
ably submit plan while the one | ad-
vanced was still under consideration.
l am sure that had any other church
submitted a hospital proposition to
the citizens of Norfolk, / would feel
that it would be neither honorable nor
ethical for me to bring forward an.
other in an effort to Guido them.
However, l have only the good OF
the city in mind and do not want the
plan ! have submitted to stand in the
way of any better proposition that
may be presented, and | therefore
withdraw from further consideration
the proposition which l made in my
former letter to you, so that the field
may be clear for further offers. If,
when the Commercial club gets
around to the consideration of this
hospital question, they receive no of.
fer which appeals to them more favor
ably than the one / made, will be
glad to have them submit to me a
proposition as to what they can do in
the way of a site and funds, which
proposition / will be glad then to
transmit to Bishop Williams for his
consideration.

When Boy Scouts Come to Your House

When Boy Scouts Come to Your House
If a boy comes to your home late
some evening and asks you to sign
your name to a slip of paper on which
are the credentials of his commander,
do it. He is a Norfolk boy scout, who
has succeeded in evading a hostile
band of scouts placed around your
home to keep him from breaking
through the lines.
Next Tuesday night when the boy
scouts march out of the city for the
regular "hike" and scouting eXpedi.
ton, new field exercises are to be put
into service.
Among them will be the rescue
message" This message will be in
the form of a letter of introduction
from the master scout, to whomever it
may concern The letter is given to
the boy scout, with orders to deliver
it to one of three houses chosen for
the purpose. A hostile band of scouts
are chosen and they must guard the
territory in the vicinity of these three
houses. Should the scout be able to
deliver his message and receive the
signature of the owner of the house,
the hostile band must give up to him a
number of arrow heads or other pen
atty is taxed on them. Should the
scout be captured by the hostiles, he
must in turn pay penalty.

Fans at Omaha Attack Umpire.

Omaha, May ct took a squad of
six police officers headed by ser
geant to prevent serious violence to
Umpire Kneeland following ycster-
days game with Sioux City. That of
fetal had already been assaulted by
two Omaha players An
derson and King following an un-
popular decision and the big crowd
was willing to do its part in handling
him roughly had the police not pro-
tected him.
The trouble resulted from a decision
in the fourth inning when Kucclaud
called Anderson out at home plate fol
lowing a long infield hit, on which ne
circled the bases. His run would
have tied the score. Immediately
Kucclaud called Anderson out, play
crs rushed from the bench, both King
and Anderson striking the umpire vic
iously on the head. Only the action
of other players prevented him from
receiving a beating
His Decision a Raw One.

local players simply let matters so
as they were. The visitors Joined in
shower of lemons and vegetables were
hurled at Kneeand while he was be
hind the pitcher.
After the last player was cut Knee
land started to mingle with the crowd
and make his way from the ground.
He soon was the mark for candy boxes,
and the crowd got hold of him. The
presence of numerous women was
probably all that saved him from be-
ing used more roughly. One woman
took a deliberate smash at him and
others joined in the jeers.
Finally, after see-sawing through the
crowd for some time, Kneeland appeal

aged to get Kneeland to safety in

half an hour after the game was over
that the umpire undertook to make
his way to town.
The Game a Joke.
The game itself degenerated into a
fiasco after the fourth inning, when
Anderson and King were sent from

pension. Kelley tossed them over

TRANSFER GAME FISH.
Deputy Game Warden Stearns Catch
ina Them in a Net.

Deputy Game Warden A. f. Stearns,
assisted by b. T. Reid, placed hoop
net below the mill dam in the North
fork river Friday afternoon. Several
game fish have already been caught
by the game warden and placed in the
upper part of the river. Mr.. Stearns
received permission to place this net
in the river from the chief game war
den some time ago and che believes
many game fish, which are now unable
to go any further up the river, will be
deposited there, and in time make
fishing on the upper part of the North
fork very good. Wire fencing was
placed by the game warden on two
sides of the river leading toward the
dam. This fencing narrows into al
most a point when it reaches the dam
Near this point the net is placed and
all fish coming up the river are sure
to be captured. Carp are being thrown
away or given to applicants.
