Was Not Jack Temple.

The body of someone shot in Omaha
last Saturday night was declared by
several people to be that of Jack Temple
of Extra whom they claimed to have
known. Because of this the Chief Of
Police telephoned his father, w. B.
Temple at Extra informing him that
his son, Jack had been killed the day
before. But the father replied that was
impossible because his son, Jack had
left the house only few minutes before
They still insisted at Omaha that the
dead burglar was Jack Temple. So he
went out Monday in company with
Frank Barnhart to convince them they
were mistaken. Much trouble comes
sometimes to some people because they
happen to resemble somebody else.

CHAUTAUQUA MOVEMENT
BEST IN THE COUNTRY
The Best Towns In The State Are
Those Having chautauquas
And Lecture Courses.

From an article in the Nonpariel
about the advertisement of ChautauQua
at Oakland we take the following con
corning Chautauqua in general. The
Nonpareil says.
The chautauqua movement is one OF
the best that ever gained momentum
in the country. 1t is practical educa.
ton. Men plan these programs with
view to getting the best in the coun-
try in the way of music. entertainment
and instruction. They advertise,
they sell tickets, they stir up enthu-
siasm, they fill the minds of the peo-
pie with things they say about their
talent and about the purpose of the
program. People where these move
ments are pushed do not have time
to think about anything else. Every.
body begins to plan on going. The
thing becomes popular. Young men in
the community take their girls; they
are compelled to do so because every
body else is going and no other course
would be polite under the circum-
stances. The best people are all GO
ing and every young man has laudable
ambition to associate with the best
people.
The net result is that the chautau.
qua spirit permeates the community
to the exclusion of all else. And when
it Is all over an indellible impression
has been made for good Talented lee
turers send forth ideas in these places
fraught with possibilities for good that
continue in the minds of young hearers
for decades as an influence for
higher living. A chautauqua booster
therefore should receive cordial well
come wherever he goes. He is prophet,
evangelist and missionary. He pro-
phecies the good things to come, he
exhorts you TO make ready for the
coming, he carries his gospel to minds
that are in ignorance. But, after il is
all over, the fellow that has done the
most boosting is after all the greatest
beneficiary, for in the prosecution of
his work he has become like unto the
things for which he strove.
The best towns in the states are
the ones that run chautauqua, lecture
and entertainment courses. Every
man, woman and child who desires to
help themselves and do something as
well for their fellowmen and is within
reach of any good chautauqua town,
should harken to the call of the
booster, accept his advice. buy a ticket
and become booster in this great work
Of familiarizing men, women and chill
dren with the good things in the world
around them.

senator Young Progressive.

The old soldiers who attended the re.
union at Cherokee last week tell good
one ON LATE Young, who spoke there
Thursday. In the course of his remarks
he spoke at length to farmers and gave
them lot Of advice about new methods,
new ideas, new ways of doing work,
new machinery. advanced education,
ETC.. and wound up by saying: I'm
short, you must be progressive. The
audience went wild raised shout and
cheered like mad. The ex-senator got red
in the face like beet, stammered and
almost broke down. For an old dyed
in-the-wool standpatter like Young to
advise his hearers to be Progressive"
was too good. He had a progressive
audience all right; the boys saw the
point, and those who heard him and
took part in the demonstration are
laughing yet. ProgressiveY You bet.

ORIGINAL RINGLING SHOW
Yankee Robinson Made The Present
Ringing Show.

The Ringing Bros, in an interview
in New York in April of this year,
made the statement that they owed
their success TO the greatest of all
showmen, Yankee Robinson. For two
seasons the Ringing show endeavored
TO pilot their show on the sea of cir
cusdom, but met with disaster each
time and wended their way back to
Baraboo Finally Yankee Robinson
took the then young Ringing Bros, up
and with the Yankee Robinson &
Ringling Bros. Show made a success.
This continued for some time, finally
Yankee Robinson and the Ringlings
separating. Today these two man.
moth shows continue to rule the world
of circusdom, and each one is credited
with having the best circus perform
organizations. Both shows are still
on friendly terms, each one contented
with the territory allotted them each
season. The only possible friction be-
tween the two big shows is during the
winter months when some big foreign
act is desired by each show. The
Yankee Robinson Shows have the
Ringlings bested in this regard, having
formed an alliance with the great
vaudeville interests of the country and
having the only high-class vaudeville
house operated on the big circuit.
However, the early friendship of these
two shows is so strong that Ringlings
are loaned many features not desired
by the Yankee Robinson Shows; for
instance, the Patty troupe, now the big
feature of the Ringing show. was ex-
hibited by the present management of
the Yankee Robinson Shows two sea-
sons prior to the Ringing engage.
ment. Both shows are better equip
ped than ever this season. There is
no truth in the report that both shows
have combined for the season. At Au-
dubon, Saturday, July 30.

Sheriff Sale OF Farm.

A very unusual thing occurred at the
Court House last Monday. A sheriff
sale OF any kind these days is something
unusual, and that of alarge farm is still
more so. The farm is a good one of
24O acres located in Oakfeld township
belonging to Nels J. Beck. We under
stand he had been offered as much as
$3.50 an acre at one time, but had be-
come so much involved that six differ
ent mortgages had been placed upon is
IN order to secure money for other pur-
poses. The first mortgage alone il

Petersen, holder of the fourth mortgage
amounting to $500 foreclosed and at
the sale bid it in, but there are more
than $4,000 that must be paid before
he can get his money and about SO, 200
that follow his claim. That is surely a
much mortgaged farm.

CONFIDENCE NECESSARY
FOR BUSINESS SUCCESS
Instead OF Criticism And Undertaking
There Should Be Encourage
ment. Commentator
And Confidence

The Omaha Bee discusses the neces-
sity of confidence in business affairs in
order to secure and maintain success.
The Bee speaks as follows:
Nearly every observer of social, in
dustrial and political conditions notes
the widespread unrest and discomfort
The spirit that is abroad In the land
criticises and finds fault with nearly
all the institutions which we have in
herited, explaining that while they
may possibly have been serviceable in
their time, they have outlived their
usefulness, have gone lame or broken
down altogether. and can no longer
keep pace with modern progress.
The tendency of this agitation and
irritation is to undermine public conf
dence in the stability and integrity of
our governmental and industrial agen-
cies, and even in the prevailing social
fabric. As rule it is admitted that
the people as whole are more intel
ligent, better educated, more prosper
GUS, more healthy, more comfortable
and less overworked than they have
been at any previous era in history,
but their desire for still further i'm
provement is likewise more keenly
whetted and popular suspicion or
prejudice more easily aroused against
whatever appears TO menace their adj
vancement or well-being.
Assuming that there are many
abuses that should be corrected and
many grievances that should be re-
dressed, the next problem after ex-
posture is cure, and tearing down will
avail nothing unless new and sound
superstructure is substituted. In its
ultimate analysis the foundation stone
Of civilized society is confidence in the
permanency and beneficence of our
free institutions.
Whatever form of Industrial organ
ization is accepted, both employer and
employed must be convinced that it will
produce substantial justice in the divi-
sion of the product. Whatever society
may do to amelioriate the living condi-
tions of the masses and improve the op-
portunities of the rising generation;
whatever it may do to relieve social
testers and rescue social derelicts, con-
fidence in the family as the social unit.
and protection of the family group
against disrupting forces, is elemental
and basic. Whatever changes may be
made in the machinery of government.
confidence in our ability to secure honest
competent and devoted men at the
guiding wheel, and in all the smaller
positions of responsibility. win be in
dispensable.
Once. when we almost completely
destroyed public confidence in our
currency. the wheels of industry came
practically TO standstill and began
again to revolve and hum only when
confidence was restored. Without the
tonic Of confidence in ourselves. conf
dence in our institutions. confidence in
our public servants. confidence in the
perpetuity Of the republic, the body
polite Is sure to languish and the in
dusrial organism to slacken its

Better Fasten The Screens.

The Griswold American says that
for several days last week Mr.. and
Mrs. A. A. Quinn, of that place visited
at the home of Mr.. and Mrs. VIM.
Cooney near Villisca. During their
stay there they occupied room on the
second floor and as the night was warm
their little daughter, Dorothy, occupied
a place near window that had q screen
in the same. About one O'Clock one night
the parents were startled when the screen
gave way and the little child fell to the
ground distance of fourteen feet.
They went to her assistance at once
and were surprised to see her sitting
upright in the middle of the screen
with but small scratch on her nose.
Her escape was miraculous.

CASE WILL
Be SHARPLY
CONTESTED

The work of selecting the jury in the
case of the State of Indiana VS.. Charles
Bloomhoff, charged with conspiring to
defraud the Indiana Steel Co. of money
as a result of the padding of the pay
rolls began in the Lake Superior Court
at Hamn~nd todav.
That the case is being bitterly con-
tested on both sides is shown by the
fact that great care is being taken on
both sides in-ta1e sseiection of the jury.
The state is being represented by
Deputy Prosecuting Attorney Ralph W.
Ross and by Cassius Greenlee. The
defendants are being represented by
Attorneys Boone and Doyle of Ham
mond.
A large number of witnesses have
been summoned from Gary and are on
hand to testify in the case. 1t is under
stood that the Indiana Steel Co. will
use every effort to have the guilty
parties brought to justice and have en-
ployed the best legal talent obtainable
to prosecute the case.
