Opening of the State Conference—A Large Attendance Both of Minis. ters and Lay Delegates— Supreme Court Decisions, {FROM TilE DEE'S LINCOLN BUREAU,| To-day the corner stone for the new Waesleyan Methodist university will be Iaid in this city with imposing ceremon- fes. Bishop Hurst, of Denver, assisted by Chancellor Moore of the Denver uni- wversity, will have charge of the laying of the stone, and the entire membershiv of the Nebraska donference now in session in the city will be in attendance, as well as state officers and other distinguished @uests and a large number of Lincoln -eitizens. The university is located in whatis known as University place, lo- cated two and one-half miles northeast from the business part of tha city, and Joining on thie west the suburban town of Havelock. The foundation walls and and cross walls for the building are complete, the size of the foundation being 150 by 71 feet. The building will be three stories and a high basement, will contain fotty- five rooms, and is to be completed Sep- tember 1, 1838, Dr. Creighton, the nnwlF elected chaneellor of the uaiversity, will devote his entire time until the opsning of the school one year from date, to the Rrapnrmury work necessary. The North ebraska conference and West Nebraska conference have both approved of the work done and the progress made and the prospects for the ‘eat Mothodist university are of e most flattering character. The uni- vesity has 240 acres of ground in Uni- versity place, and the campus grounds, covering forty-four acres, are located in the center of the tract. 'I‘Igu rest is all sub-divided and platted into lots und blocks. Immediately after the laying of the corner stone 200 will be sold at publio auction, the sale being in the immediate charge of John C. Bonnell, with Pace & Rhodes auctioneers. The B. & M. will run a special train to University place for all attending the laying of the corner stone and the sale, and carriages will be in waiting at the train to convey visitors to the site of the university building. There has been sold in University place already thirty-nine lots at private sale that averaged $350 each, which ought to be u fair idea of what the lots are worth nd what they should bring. The terms are one-fourth cash, balance in three years at 8 per cent, and the sale gives the Methodist brethren and all others in- terested 1n the university an opportunity to show by their works their desire to assist the university. THE CONFERENCE OPENS. The Nebraska Methodist conference opened yesterday at St, Paul's M. E. church, this city, Bishop Hurst, of Den- ver, presiding. There are about one hundred and fifty ministers and one hundred lay delegates in attendance, all of whom huve been provided with homes while in the city among their Methodist, friends.

The regular con- ference sermon will be preached Friday at 7:30 p, m. by Dr. Britt, the conference coutinuing over Sunday. YESTERDAY'S SUPREME COURT, Court met pursuant to adjournment.

Under the statute, as it stood prior to the act of March 31, 1857, in order to appeal fromn the assessment of damages, which the owner of any real estate sustained by the appropriation of his land to the use of any railroad corporation, it was only nec- essary to file in the office of the cierk of the district court of the proper county within sixty ys after the filing of the re- port containing "the award of such dam- -(u with the county judge, a transeript of the condemnation proceedings upon which such award of damages was made. 2. A paper headed “Transcript,” but con- sisting of a certiied copy only of the report of the commissioners appointed by the county judge to asiess the damages, cte., contain- ing " their assessment and award of dam- sivs, held, sufficient to give the appellate court Jurisdiction of the cause.

Counolly vs Edgerton, Error from Douzlas county, Afirmed. Opinion by Reese, J. I:' Em;qm.’f“." of intentlon lln eueo‘r In alleged fraudulens conveyance of vroperty is on.lo( fact to be decided by the trial jury under the instructions of the court. 2. Where, in the examiuation in chief of a witness, a question is nsked to which objee- tion is made, which is sustained, the party desiring the evidenea wmust offer to prave . the facts sought to be established, before arror ean be assigned upon such ruling. 8 Wherea competent ‘vituess' is called property, ulmlnml: by reason of the contrary is made to appear. compensation, rest was made. 88 an expert to testify as to the valne of his testimony is not rendered in- the fact that he had not seen the since about one month prior to the time when ‘he value was to be established, it being shown by other testi- mony that the property was fo substanially the same eondmn at {mh riods of time. Where & witness is called as an expert stify as to the value of property in dis- rule nd it is shown upon examination that e 13 competent to so testify, and his testi- mony I8 taken, and ujon cross examination he is asked It bis estimate of values Is not based on what he would give for the property, which he answers in the affirmative, a mo- tion to strike from the record all of t mony of the witness was properly overruled. Such answer would not render the witness Incompetent to testify, but it unexplained might diminish the weight of bis testimony. 5. As to parties before the court and re- Specting & matter within its jurisdiction, a Judgment without a finding fo support it is Dot void, but at most merely erroneous and bject to be revised by a suitable proceeding’ in a tripunal having authority to revise it Doty v.

Different attachments of the same prop- ‘erty may be made by the same officer, and one inventory and appraisement will be suf- ficient, and it 18 not necessary to same with more than one order. il code, section 209, ‘Therefore, when a constable re- ceives an order of attachment and proceeds to levy the same on a part of astock of goods. and, before making the inventory and ap- praisement, other orders of attachment are placed in his hands for execution, he may properly levy uron property of sufficient value to satisfy all of such orders, and make but one return of the inventory and ap- praisement. In such case he cannot be turn the charged with —making an excessive levy unless the value of the prop- orty seized _exceeds proper levy to satisfy all of sucb ordérs' and probable costs; and even In such case, the question can only be raised by the par to the action. = As between third parties in a col- lateral vroceeding the levy would be valid. 8, Verdict in action of ‘replevin held suf- ficient.

BRIEF ITEMS. A"mmg man named Riodan became involved in trouble last night. He bor- rowed his parents’ horse after dark,bor- rowed a harness from a neighbor in” the same way, and borrowed H. H. Dean’s carriage” without the asking. In the morning when Mr. Dean discovered his loss he notitied the sheriff, and when just about to telegraph to look out for horse thieves the carriage was found in another port of the city smashed to kindling. The horse had been found streets by the police, and the harness was loose in the a wreek, It was an expensive lark for the young man, who wants to settle for the property destroyed and avoid prose- cution, The statement was made to the Beg yesterday that a woman with four child- ren, who lived on the bottoms in the western part of the city was arrested by the police as a prostitute. As the state- ment goes she had §6 which was taken from her and she was told to como to headquarters and pay the balance of the fine when she earned it. Having been deprived of what money she had she begged some bread for her children and then neignbors were secured to look after them while the woman earned enough money to keep out of jail. Track laying has commenced on two new lines of street railway within the past week, and the improvements of this character go on interrupted by the song of the croaker who sings the loudest when he fails to unload at a moment’s time property at double its cost. A colored man named Butts reclined in jail yesterday awaiting a heaving for stealing some shirts from a furnishing house and 1n fighting an officer when ar- He was as tough » man to handle as the police often run across.

Musical Reeord: The zither, that pretty little flat harp which is now tanght 1n our cities, and which so mm? {ounz ladies are learming, originated in the Alpine countries, and was, toward the middle of our century, used by travel- g Tyrolese singers an accompani- ment to their songs and yodels. Even to-day, when one sces the graceful young girl seated at the table, practicing her zither, and hears those wild chords, an Alvine scene raises before the eyes and transfers the modest wsthetic interiar, in charming dreamlike transformation, ta rushing streams, pine forests, blue peaks and snow mountains, that scenedy of the Tyrol ana Switzecland which 13 of ull things most lovely.

HOW THE PUBLIC MONEY GOES. The Appropriation Ordinance For the First Month of the Present Fiscal Year, For years past the monthly appropriation ordinance of the city of Omaha has not beea published, and the taxpayers have been left in the dark as to the expenditures of the public moneys, The pretense for withnold- ing this important ordinance from the people is economy—although it can be published for less then €10 any single month, The Bee proposes to follow up its exhibit of county financlering by showing the methods of tax-eating pursued by the eoun- cil, We begin by publishing the complled ordinances for July and August. That of July was protested vesterday, The Auvust ordinance appears below. ‘These ordinances are passed at the be Vllllmi of each month for the month preceding, Their publication vill interest a very Iatge number of our readers.
