A Lively Encounter.
Last Sunday -morning Oscar
Healy and a student named Dick
ey engaged in a lively scrimmage,
with the result that Mr. Healy
will appear before Justice Hol-
gate today to make explanation.
A number of students have rooms
at the Healy home 'and rumor
has it that they are not above
that boisterous behavior common
to boys. In a mischievous mo
ment some of them scratched the
walls and carved the woodwork
of their rooms. On a particular
ly hilarious occasion they broke
down one of the beds. On the
morning in question Mr. Healy
went hammer in band to repair
this latest damage. A number
ot students were on the scene
and Mr. Healy stated that who
ever was responsible tor the
mischief would have to find
rooms elsewhere. Dickey retort
ed in kind, and well, right here
testimony begins to differ. The
students say that Mr. Healy
struck Dickey on the head with
the hammer while the latter's
gaze was diverted. uickey
blindly felt in the direction ot
his assailant, who side-stepped
and dealt him another blow,
they grappled and Mr. Healy de
lvered a number of additional
blows with the hammer until
Dickey's head was in such a con
dition that it was necessary to
call in a physician. Mr. Healy
conteuds that Dickey assaulted
him belore he began his defense
with the hammer.

The Gazette Is pleased to an
nounce that it has secured the
services of Mr. Otto 'Herse, re
cently of West PointJtfebraska,
to take charge of its job depart
ment. Our . business , has out
grown its presents force and fa
cilities, and in order to meet he
demands of trade we have found
it necessary to devote tht entire
attention of one man to job work
alone. We believe Mr. Herse to
be a capable, artistic printer, and
take pleasure in introducing him
to the good people of this com
munity. The West Point Republican
has this to say of him:
Otto Herse, until late city ed
itor of the Democrat; departed
yesterday morning, for Corvallis,
Oregon, in which city he propo
ses to make his future home, as
soon as he has obtained a remun
erative position, aud send for
his wife, who remains in West
Point in the interim. It is with
sorrow that we see Mr. Herse
leave the community. A bright,
talented young man, he has
scores of friends who will regret
to hear of his departure. For
nine years he served as composi
tor on the Republcan and for
the last five years he has been
editor of the Democrat. He
had been appointed local
deputy game and fish warden bv
Gov. Savage and is also promi
nent in church and social circles
in the city. He studied for the
ministry at Midland college,
Atchinson, Kansas, but later de
cided not to enter that profession.
He, as well as his wife, possesses
great musical talent and he is
undoubtly one of the finest tenor
singers in this part of the state,
his voice being well modulated
and low aiid sweet. Wherever
Mr. Herse and wife may cast
their lot, we hope that success
will crown their efforts.

urday morning, while riding along
on a fairly good stretch of sidewalk,
the wheel broke down with him and
he was the victim of a vicious fall.
He was lucky to escape with . the
few slight bruises that he received
it might easily have crippled him
for life or caused his death. The
wheel, a new cushioned-frame Ram

that society and communities are
unable to deal satisfactorily with
