In Platte County

Columbus, Neb., Sept. o. Special
A head-on collision between two
automobiles occurred Sunday evening
thirteen miles northwest of this city
at II O'Clock, as a result of which
Howard Davis, a young man from

ough examination of his bruises but
found no broken bones, although he
will be laid up for some time. One
car was being driven by Leo Hamling

George and John Hamling, and Eddie
Leschen, and the other car was be-
ing driven by young Davis and a party
of young people from Creston. Both
cars were badly smashed up.
Joe Weiser, who works on the farm
of c. Ernst, four miles southwest of
Columbus, had the misfortune to get
the ligaments of his right leg torn loose
Monday evening as he was riding on
the side OF the John Boss automobile,
holding onto his bicycle that he was
carrying to the city. In some man.
ner the automobile struck rut in the

Attorney Prince Beaten Up
BV Man He Prosecuted

Grand Island, Neb., Sept 6.-(Spe-
cial Telegram. Harm Shank, a
saloon keeper of Silver Creek and
paroled by Governor Aldrich ten days
after he was sentenced from Polk
county for arson, late yesterday in
front of his saloon at Silver Creek
assaulted Governor Aldrich's cousin,
Attorney w. A. Prince of this city,
and the latter is today confined to
his home as consequence. Harold
Prince, son of the attorney, was also
assaulted by Tom Dwyer, bartender
for Shank, but when he saw that his
father and himself were in gang Of
about eight men with apparently no
one to come to their assistance he
feigned Inconsistencies and was pos
sibly spared a more severe beating.
The elder Prince was rendered un-
conscious by a blow from Shank on
the back of the head while the at
torney was passing the saloon, after
applying a vile epithet and grabbing
Prince by the arm. Prince was an
assistant in the prosecution for Polk
county at the time of Shank's con-
viction on the charge of arson, and
it is said that Shank has made many
threats against the attorney ever
since. After his parole by Governor
Aldrich there was remonstrance
from the people of Polk county and
Governor Morehead recalled the pa
role. Shank so far as known has now
been out about three years. 1t was

Officers later arrested the two men

Mrs. Bartha, mother of the girl,
