IN FIGHT WITH NEGRO

r. S. Shifiett, 1924 Stuart avenue.
Is still confined to his home as a re-
suit of injuries sustained by him when
he tackled a negro burglar who had
attempted to rob him Friday night.
According to the story told the po-
lice by Mr., Shifett, he had gone to
his store, 2211 Jefferson avenue. TO
finish up his business. and 1t had kept
him there until midnight Friday,
when he happened to see big negro
concealed in the shadow of one OF
the posts. He had the presence of
mind to pretend that he had not no.
ticed anything out of the ordinary.
and reached down in the desk drawer,
where he kept revolver,
only the click of the empty barrel was
a result. Unfortunately, it was not
loaded. At this the negro drew a
fazor from his pocket and rushed at
him. making vicious thrust at Mr..
Shitiett. cutting through his clothing
and making cash just over his
heart The two clinched, and the
storekeeper managed to wrest the ra-
zor away from the black. but the lat
ter seized a piece of wood which was
I lying nearby and hit him over the
head, rendering him unconscious until
two hours after. when he crawled to
the home OF J. r. Meyer, 22o3 Jeffer-
son avenue.
The cash register of the store was
robbed of $3.50 in currency.

"Where Ignorance Is Bliss
Works at a Foot Ball Game

ing day was asked by a companion
why the field wasn't cleaned off.
Neither the portly one, who is a
prominent Omahan, nor his COM
panioD, 'fealized evidently that it had
showed up until Thursday after
room, and that for that reason it
was almost impossible TO clean it
Off.
oh" mumbled the portly one"
II guess Creighton's afraid they'd get
beat if they had dry field"
Neither he nor his companion re-
allied, either. that it would have
been to the advantage of the lighter,
faster team to play on dry field.
and that Creighton was outweighed
nearly 10 pounds to man. Creigh-
ton depended on its speed while
Dakota depended on its strength.
Dakota's heavy line and Dickinson's
frequent punting were what saved
the Dakotans from a more decisive
defeat. Apparently neither he nor
his companion had heard that the
day before, when Coach c. A. West
of the visitors saw Creighton
campus, he said, Gee, | hope it

Such is life. The portly one used
to play foot ball. himself, he alleges.
