BELL CASE WAS DISMISSED.
Asked Damages for Accidental Death
of Dick Bell.

The case of Herbert Bell, admin
istrator, for damages against J. L.
Kruger and J. G. Asper was dismiss
ed in the district court yesterday on
motion Of the defense because OF
lack of sufficient proof that the
plaintiff was entitled to damages.
Kruger and Asper were the con-
tractors for the farmers elevator
here. During the construction of
the building a plank fell from the
roof hitting Bell on the head and
inflicting injuries from which he
died. The administrator asked
damages of the contractors. The
judge held that there was not suffi-
cient evidence to show that the de-
PENDANTS were to blame for the ac-
cident.

OF the county IN attendance.
The session opened with music by

an address by Prof. Fiske Allen,
head of the mathematics department
OF the Kansas normal, and his talk
was Of real interest and showed an

THE BIG TRAINS COMING BACK.
RumOr Says Nos. 1O1 and 1O2 viii
Go On Again.

There are persistent rumors in
Union Pacific railroad circles that
trains Nos. 101 and 1O2 are to be
resumed soon.
These trains have been taken off
and resumed several times already.
Usually they were taken off the first
of the year and reinstated again the
following May. This time, however,
they were taken off at the beginning
of winter and the reports today are
that they will be reinstated as much
earlier.
Trainmen expect notice to come at
any time giving official announce
ment that the trains will go back
in service in short time. Heavy
traffic and competition is said to
demand these trains again.

IT'S A SAD. SAD STORY
THE SCORE BOARD TELLS
Abilene Teams Were Humbled OF
Home Court.
lrrom Saturdays paily.l

The Abilene basket ball teams
stood last night at Teddy's Arma.
geddon or at Waterloo or at some
other place of equal Significance.
In other words they got everlastingly
cleaned up and there isn't any get
ting around 1t. They were simply
outclassed, outplayed, drubbed--
they were supremely wiped up--they
didn't get look in.
The facts are that Ellsworth has
an exceedingly strong team and the
fellows play together like the work
ing Of a clock. Tossing goals on a
basket ball court is Just a part Of
their everyday's business. And the
girls from Enterprise seem to have
a touch of the same thing in their
system. Anyhow Abilene was on the
defensive last night from the begin
ming to the end and then some.
Abilene laid down? Not on your
life. With the score always against
them the Abilene goal tossers fought
to the last. But 1t was a fight against
superior teams and they couldn't
win. The score board showed when
the games were over: Ellsworth 40,
Abilene 81; Enterprise Acadamy
girls 81, Abilene high school girls 8.
A sad, sad story.
The crowd that saw the games
was large. Before o'clock the
doors were closed because the bleach
ers were full. And the crowd got its
worth.
The lineup of the Abilene teams
was: Boys, center, Carver and Lit
lie; guards, Stanley, Brewer, Little
and Carver; forwards, Ross and G. |
Brewer. Girls, centers, Mary Ma
rims, Rowena Engle and Elizabeth
andes forwards, mex Dayton and
lois Jackson; guards. BeuIah Reese
ind Bertha Issitt.

JUDGES ARE CHOSEN FOR
HIGH SCHOOL DEBATE.

The judges for the high school
debate which will be held here next
Friday evening are Superintendent
Sherwood of Ellsworth, Smith of
Minneapolis and Lofty OF Salina.
These men will officiate in the first
debate in which the Abilene high
school has ever taken part. The
team which will represent Abilene
IN the debate here Is made up Of
three girls-Gladys Shadinger, Mary
Rouch and Edith French. The team
which comes from the county high
school is strictly a boys team and
the vita Of the Abilene girls will be
pitted against the wits of the mas
culine gender. Y
Thesparcel post question will be
discussed and since II Is of general
interest at this time It IL fair to be-
lieye that the debate will be more
than OF general interest to the aud
fence which will be gathered to urge
on the Abilene girls in their first
attempt at the forensic art.
The high school is making big
preparations for the debate and have
scheduled fine musical program to
precede it. The glee club and the |
orchestra will give a good musical
entertainment. The high school be-
Iieves that the patrons OF the school |
are interested in the literary attain
nents of the school and are asking |
hem to demonstrate their interest
BY attendance at the debate.
On the same night that the de-
bate is held here another team from
he high school will go to Junction
5ity to debate with the high school
here.
