- B THE NEW CIRCUIT JUDGE, Judge Dundy Talks of Brower's Successor on tho Federal Benoh, HE IS A MAN OF GREAT ABILITY, Oldest of ANl Commissioned Judges— Would Fight at the Drop of the Hat—An Extraordine arily Fine Record, Dundy on Oaldwell, A reprosentative of Tue Ber had a talk last evening with Judge Dundy regarding Hon. Henry dwell, United States dis triot judgo for eastorn Arkansas, who has just been appointed by President Harrison a8 successor to Judge Brower, Jate judge of the United States circuit court, Judge Dundy said: 1 have known Caldwell for years. Heis an old fowa man, aud has been judge since 1504 He is the oldest of all the commis: sioned judges, being four yoars ahead of me. Caldweli is a mighty good lawyor, a mignty ®ood judge, and the one of all others who was deserving of and should have had the place. My understanding of tho matter hias been that he wouldn’t have it, as he was an applicant for the supreme court. 1t has been generally understood from the first that the president proposed to appoint one of the district judges to the place he has just put Calawell into. As to what backing Caldwell had I know nothing what- ever, but Lsuppose uudoubtedly that it was his extraordinarily fine record and his own merits which led to his being the choice of the adminstration, ‘T tell the truth, T thought that Parker, with Blaine, Elkins, J Chandler and many other such men at his back, together with the strong backing he had at St. Louis, would Ret the appointment. S0 far us experience in the fedecal court goos, Caldwell is well equipped, having had twenty-six years of it. As to his appearance, he Is u very nice looking feliow, old enough 10 have been a colonel in tho army in 1504— or about my age. He hus a wife and one or two daughters, and, 1 think, a son. Heis o very firm man, and could send a fellow to the galiows 1f_necessary or fight at the drop of the bat. He holds his own atali times, and in these respects he is like Parker. Ho will certainly be a great success in the new position to which he has been ap- pointed.” Being asked indirectly whether he felt at all disappointed at the presiaent’s couclu- sion in the matter. the judge smiled broadly, ond in his famously good humored wa said ; “Why, bless you, no; I'm not the least bit disappointed. 1 didr’t make oy effort in the watter myself. When our delegation vresented my name T thought to myself, 11l see just for fun how much racing around the country the man who gets the job will have to do. 1 found that by actual computation he would have to travel 27,000 miles every year, and then couldn’tattend all the courts he was assigned to. That just about settled tho business for me, for, as you well know, 1 am a great lover of my home, and while T like to go bear hunting with the boys onco a year, yet to make u business of jolting around over 27,000 miles every twelvo months makes ms shrug my shoulders, shake my head and say, 'No, | tnank you.' “You know there’s a bill before congress to increase our pay—I'm more interested in * that just now than almost anything else, and 1T've heard, too, that its likely to got through,” Being asked when Judge Caldweli would probably make his first appearance in ‘Omana, Judge Dundy said there was nothing to call him here, so far as he knew, before the second Mor.day \n May. HA'S SCHOOL BONDS, Steps to Be Taken to Their " Regilstrati A special meeting of tho board of educa- tion was held yesterday morping to consider the nction of State Auditor Benton in refus- ing to register $215,000 of Omaha school bonds. The members present wers Mess ‘Goodman, Clark, Scoville, Martin, Spald- ing, Coburn, Points and Felton. Secretury Piper explained that he had for- warded the bonds, $215000 in all, to the state auditor for registration. 1n return he bad reccived a letter from Auditor Senton notifying the board he was of tho opinion “that the bonds were not entitled to regis- tration for the reason thut no provision for levying the tax for the payment of the in- terest was incorporated in the proposition.’’ The autorney for the board was asked to explain the situation. He read considerablo law, showing the course which had been pursued by the board was legal and correct beyond question. **The luw,” hesaid, “*has stepped 10 and ab- solutely taken the power away from the peo- ple and left iv e sively with the board to provide for suing and disposition of school bonds.” The icgislature had pro- vided for an exclusive manner for issuing and paying school bouds." When Mr. Estelle bad finished his argn. ment Mr, Martin inquired whut course would be pursued in case the state auditor in- sisted on refusing Lo register the bonds. *Mandamus, I presume,” said Mr. Estello, “although I have not given that particular point any thought, as I am confident that, ‘when the law is explained to the s ate andi- tor he will submit without any hesitancy." Mr. Clurk then offered a resolution that the attorney for the board, the secretary and the members of the finance committee pro- ceed to Lincoln at once and coofer with the suditor. Mr. Coburn insisted that the judi clary committee go instead of the committee on finance. Mr. Martin suggested that the attorney choose whatever memfbers he de- sired to have go with him, but finally the following was adopte retary aud attorney Resolved, That the of this board proceed to Lincoln with the #215,000 of school bonds issued January 1, 1800, with the history of the sume, for regis- tration, and take such actwon us may be hecessary to secure the registration of the same. According to the law the bonds do not need to be registered until March 24 Tho committee will leave for Lincoin this morning and return in the mvening. Secure ANUTHER MURDER.

Nine Members Instead of six—Fate of a Man Who Wanted a Check Cashed—Jolin Fry's Abe- sconded Bariender, John Fry's Seven Hundred Dollars. No information was received yesterday from Allfilisett, the absconding burtender from John Fry's Q streot saloon. Chiof Maloney was confident Wodnesday he was on the right track of his man and would have him under arrest in forty-eight hours. Allfilisett was inamored of a variety actress named Walters, wio has been play- ng at the People's theatre in Omaha. He was in love with her to tho extent of want- ing to marry her, although the woman claims she repulsed his advances and told bim she wanted notting to do with him There is some controversy about the ownership of the saloon where Allfilisett was employed and from which he took the money. Fry icontends that Alltilisett's father, who lives in a small town in lowa, put in one-half the monoy required to buy tne saloon. F'ry putin the other half, and each put in a man to look after his Interest, Alifilisett, sr., deputizing his son as his man. The absconder all along maintained he owned a half interest in the place vy virtue of monoy advanced for him by his father. If that is tho case he meroly adopted an abrupt und uncersmouious method of torminating the partnership and withdraw- ing his intorest. Whatever the partnership agrangemonts, Fry is very anxious for tho return of his $700. New School District Laws., Working under the charter governing cities of the first class, as South Omaha mu- uicipal affairs are managed now, will cause a complete change in the school board and render necessary the election of an entire new set uf school distriot officers at the com- ing city election. As the first election under the new charter governing cities'of the first class of less than 25,000 1nhabitants will ocs cur in April next the provisions of the law are published for the benefit of the electors and taxpayers : In cities of the first class the board of ed- ucation shall consist of nine members, who sball be qualitied electors of the city, and who shall be actual taxpayers, who shall b elected at the times and hold their offices for the terms herewafter prescribed, towit: At the first annual city election held after or- ganizing under this act, three members shall be elected for the term of throe years, three for two vears, and three for one year; and annually thereafter their Bucces- sors shall be chosen for the term of three years, and all members 8o elected shall servo until their successors are duly elected and_qualified. In cities pow orgaulzed under this act, no vacaucy shall be created bocause of this amendment. It shall be the duty of the mayor of any city now organized or hereafter orgauized under the provisions of this sub- division, to give publio notice to the electors thereof of the namber of persons who shall bo chosen by them as members of s board of education for the school district of [South Omaha at the ensuing aonual election for city vfficers, As now constituted Sonth Omaha's school board consists of six members, . J. Per- sons, J. C. Carroll, J. D. Robinson, W.J, Slate, C. T. Van AKen and David Hoban, Without reference to the length of time for which they were elocted each member of tho present board must step dowa and out in April or go before the people sgain for re- election, ‘Thenew arrangement of nine members ought 10 give each: section of the city ade- quate represeatation in the board. ‘The desirability of @ pon-par- tisan board is beiug urged hy some citizons and undoubtedly some nction in that direc- tion will be taken before the election ocours. It is urged that tho present is the most op- portune time to establish the precedent of o non-partisan management of school affairs in South Omaha. A Stranger’s Sad Mistake. Wednesdoy a stranger whose name could not be learned paid his first visit to South Omaha. He visited the exchange building, the yards and packing houses just before dusk, and as darkness commenced to cover the city he wandered across the tracks and took in the sights of the town. He was seen about the lower end of N street and in the various saloons for two or three hours spend- ing money freely and apparently enjoying himself as visitors 10 the Magic City are wont to do. About 9;30 o'clock he was picked up on N street, near Twenty-fifth, 10 an msensible condition. He was carried to Seykora’s drug store and Dr. Kelly summoned to at- tend him. It was doubtful at first whether he was suffering from some 1nternal injuries or had merely become stunned and rendered insensible by the cold. He was brought to a condition of con ness ard asked to give some particulars sbout biwself. Slowly he drew from his in- side pocket what looked like a receipt book, and sand: I ran out of money and after asiing sev- eral peonle to cash a check for me was di- rected o a place they call Tom Rock's, 1 weot up to the bar, drew this check book half way out of my pocket, suying, ‘Wil you please cash a $30 check for me, siry’ 1 don't know how it happened or how 1t was done, but I was assisted out of the door and landed in the middle of the street, where I lost consciousuess. Is 1t a peniteatiary of- fense to ask strangers to cash checks for you in South Omaha " Drugeist Seykora and Dr, Kelly exchanged hasty glances, The stranger was nssisted to his feet and departed, aking s motor car for Owaha. Dr. Kelly and his medicine case went down N street, Druggist Seykora ex- tinguished tbe Lights in his store, and in five minutes all was darkness. ‘The stranger had touched tender spots all around that had been lacerated about §70 worth . cious- William Daunkaul Buried The funeral of William Daunkaul, the fourth victim of Saturdsy’s boiler explosion, oceurred ut 2 o'clock yeste rday afterncon.

A reader asks to be enlightened on the subject of mi-careme soup. This soup, which in plain English is “‘Mid-Lent soup,” is one of the prettiest of Lenten soups. It is oxcellent at any season, and 18 made as follows, suys the New York Herald: Have your fish merchant fillet two one-pound flounders. Put these fillets over the fire with one pint of cold water, and when the boiling point 15 reached lift them out carefully and lay them between two platters to cool while you add the bones and trimmings (including the skin) of the fishes, one quart of boiling water, one small car- rot, one turnip ahd an onion, each of medium size, paréd and sliced; two stalks of celery, parsley and the usual soup herbs, Let this simmer for an hour, when it will be reduced to one quart. Meanwhile stamp half a dozen lettuce leaves inlittle rounds with an apple corer; throw. them into salted boiling water for one minute; drain and throw into cold water to await further use. Stamp similar rounds from a cold boiled red beet, each round about a quarter of an inch thick; stamp the fillets also in the same sized rounds and set all ‘aside while you rub the remainder of the fillets through a siéve with a wooden spoon. Strain the fish stock through a sieve and a return to thy fire; bring to the boiling point a quart of milk. Stir two quaces each of butter and flour together over the fire; add the milk gradually, then the fish stock; season with salt, pepper and grated nut- meg: stir in the puree made from the trimmings of the flilets,and when ready to send to the table throw in the rounds of lettuce and beet and the fillets of fish, It must be served instantly so that the brightness of the colors may not be im- [Paired. The green of the lettuce, the red of the beet and the white of the fish make this soup as pretty as it is de- licious. e HIS BABY BROTHER. The Only Susceptible 830t in a Va- grant Street Urchin's Hearr, The maxim that there is some good in everybody is constantly receivin faesh illustrations, says the Youth’s Companion. A poor httle ragamuffin, step-son in a large, thriftless and ox- ceedingly poor family,was an eyesore to the thrifty inhabitants of the decor- ous, prosperous old viilage upon which his slatternly household had suddenly descended, ~ He was always in the streots and always ragged and dirty, and even if he was set to work was sure to leave his job and follow the first hand organ. In the course of nature he was ar- rested for vagrancy. He showed no emotion when the indictment was read nor when he was sentenced to the re- form school; but when the sheriff roughly bade him *brace up,” for they had just time enough to caten the train, the boy looked 80 troubled that his l:;:unsul asked him if ho wanted any- thing. “Igd like to see the baby before I go.’ he said wistfully, and with pule lips quivering. A few questions to his mother and his stepfather brought out the fact that the waif had a domestic side to his de- formed littlo nature and that the baby referred him to all the rest of the amily. His request was granted. The sheriff looked up & later truin, a con- stable **shadowed” the hoy home and he had an hour with his baby brother be- fore beginning his dismal journey. It is to be hoped that those to whose care he was committed were wise annugl\ to take adyantage of the “‘soft spot’”’ thug unex‘]m{:}p‘dly revealed in a heart which had seemed so wanting in susceptibility to any good influence.

Beatrico Citizens Seeking Better Railway Facllities. PARTIAL TO THE METROPOLIS, The Visit of the Baateice Dolega- tion and Thelr Exposition ot Thete Wants—Another Meet- ing Arranged. Bearrics in Omaha, The Beatrico delegation that wvisited Omaba yesterday in the interest of the pro- vosed extension of the Rock Island road from Omaha to Beatrice, mot with a warm welcome at the hands of the real estate ex- chungo, The delegation was expeoted to arrive early in the day and the attendance at the morning meeting of the exchange was very large. The visitors were delayed, however, and arrived only in time to attend th e meet~ ine at the exchange at 2:90 o’clock. The delegates were C. Baker, C. B. Dempster, S. C. Smith, J. W. Funk and A, C. Jordan, There was a fair attendance of the mem- bers ot the exchange and a sprinkling of business men when Vice President Upton called the meeting to order ut 8 o'clock and briefly welcomed the visitors to Omaha and w the exchange. Dr. George L. Miller was called upon and further wolcomed the delegation, *‘lam glad to join the exchange,” said Dr. Miller, “in greeting the represontative men of one of the mdst flourishing towns in_the state. Iam at home in Nebraska when Lam away from Ownha. The welcome there 18 always cordial. L am not definitely informed as to the object of the delegation visit, but I know what the people of Beatrice want from Omaha, It is pretty well understood that the Rock Island will build from Omaha to the southern part of Nebraska at an early date and this delogation is hore tosecurs tho co-operation of Omaha in securing for Beatrice the terminal point of that extens son. It is understood that the Rock Island will build either from Fairbury or from He- atrice. While I do not want to discriminate between any towns in Nebrasks, I am stroagly prepossessod in favor of Beatrice. There is no town in the state that has a com- munity with more brains, more moral force Or more enterprise, as shown by the resulis in their building up of all that makes a city strong aud substantial. It is the largest town of its numbers that I ever saw.” At the conclusion of Dr. Miller’s remarks the visitors were given seats on the platform and Mr. S. C. Smith, a Beatrice banker, was called upon to address the meeting. Responding, Mr. Smith expressed his thanks for the kindly welcome accorded the delegatior, and said that it was only an indi- cation of the general good will that is felt by Omahans for Beatrice and which 1s cor- dially reciprocated. “Omaha,” said Mr, Smith, “is & railroad town. We know that, and we know, too, that every line built from the city belps you. It brings business to Omaha and at the same time confers facili- ties for trade upon the towns reached by it. Kansas City is paying a great aeal of atten- tion to tho towns in the southern part of the state and is making every effort to secure our trade. 1The completion of the Kansas City & Beatrice railway, a few months ago, gives us excellont railway facilities with the city on the Kaw and the road takes to Kan. sas City a very considerable por- tion of the trade that rightfully be- longs to Omaha. We want Omaha to co-operato with us in securivg the extension of the Rocic Tsland. 1t is zpparent that if the road is built from Beatrice, Omaha woula secure just as much from Fairbury us if it were built from Fairbury. This will not be true if the reverse 1s the case. 1f Beatrice is left out she will content herself with her Kansas City connections and Omaha will lose her trade. We want to trade in Omaba and want your co-opera- tion in securing better facilities for us,” Mr. C. E. Baker followed Mr. Smith and made a few points clear. He explaed that if the proposed extension were built to Fair- bury 1t would relieve the B, & M. of the ne- cessity of shortening its line and the com- pany would probably build from Beatrice to some point on the Republican Valley line and thus divert the rightful Gmaha trade w Chicago. Mr. Baker asked that the ex- change appoint a committee to attend a meeting on the subject to be Leld in I3eatrice on Tuesday evening next. Vice President Uptor. in assuring the dele- tions that Omaha would send a committee to the meeting said that Omaha had felt the necessity of increasing 1ts railway facilities both in northern and southern Nebraska, and he felt sure that te citizens would moet. Beatrice half way in the broject under con- sideration. Mr. A. M. Kitchen moved that the chair appoint a committee composed of members of the exchange ana representative business men to attend the meeting at Beatrice. He supported his motion by a brief address urg- ing prompt and united action in the matter, As the date of the meeting conflicts with the Patti engagement here it was decided by the Beatrice delegation to change the timo of the meeting until Thursday evening. Mr. Upton stated that he would not an- nounce the names of the commitiee unul he had secured a list of names of representa- tive citizens who wonld agree to attend the meeting. After the meoting the visitors wore enter- tained by members of the exchange umil time for them to return home. e THE HOUSEHOLD. 3 Slumber Robes. No sitting room or library is complete without a couch and slumber robe. ‘While beautiful robes may be made of knit afghans or crazy-work covers, very pretty, and equally serviceable oues, may be made with much less time and expense out of summer shawls of con- | trasting colors, a deep garnet and a fawn color is pretty. Place a layer of batting or wadding between them and tie with cream fill- ing-in silk. Place the fringed edge of one against the selvedge edge of the other, and that will make a fringe all around. A vine or spray of flowers may pe couched in rope sitch and add to the beauty. If itis not as pretiy as a more expensive one it will be as com- fortable. Three essentials in any house are couch, pillow, and slumber robe. How to Re-Mako a Hodice. ‘When a bodice is worn out around the arm scies or darts it ean be freshened with a contrasting fabrie like velvet, surah or figured woollen applied as full fronts, sewing them in the under-arm seam and gathering the matoviul in the arm gcie nearly to the top of the shoul- der; then draw all the fullness in easy folds to the short pointand fasten there under a long slender buckle, which is sewed to ove side of the folds and hooked over to the other when on, says the Ladies’ Home Journal., fa round waist is preferred in front, cut off the the point, lap the loose fronts and use wide belt trom the seams and buckle, or & loosely folded empire belt, shaped toa rounding point below the waisv line by drawing the upper folds tighter than the under ones. For a hollow chested person cover the upper vart of the basque with a draperysewn in the right shoulder seam in ‘graceful fulness, rounded over the bust shaped to fit in soft drapery around the collar and hooked up on the left shoulder seam, witha trimming or the bottom of silk drops or fringe, If of contrasting goods a girdle from the side seams, shaped to the edge of the basque in front and cuffs of the same, transform an other- wise shabby bodice, Whiting for Cleaning Sliver and Glass It is a fact well worth the knowledge of all housekeopers that the cheapest and besturticle for cleaning and bright- ening glass, silver, nickel and plated ware and window glass is pulverized chalk, more commonly kuown as whit- ing,says a writer in the lowa Home stond, No washing with soap is noeded | for the windows, Dust them well; put a small quantity of the whiting on & vlate or pane; wet a soft rag with cold water, dip it into the whiting, and Y rub the glass: when about dry, wine ind polish with a soft, dry cotton or linen cloth or towel that will not shed lint. All spots or putty and oil marks on new panes of window gluss will disappear undor the action of this powder. ~ You will be astonished at the result of so little labor. Be careful in rubbing large panes of glass not to bear on too heavily as there is danger of breaking them, In this method, no soup being used, the paint on the sash is not injured,neither is the glassstreaked with softened paint. To rub silver ana ickelware, a woolen cloth is best, as it givesa greater brillianey, 1f the cles are spotted, a few drops of ke sene on the rag will cause them to dis- appoar, Kerosene is also exceliont for cleaning tho zinc under stoves. Aftor cleaning the aust from the zinc,snturate a rag with kerosene and rub woll, nfte which take a dry rag and rub till ovor spot disappears. After this the zit may be kept clean by frequent polishing with old, soft newspapers, What is more attractive than a pretty face With a fresn, bright complection!

That Ayer's Sarsaparilla is the best curo for Indigestion, cven when complicated with Liver Complaint, 18 proved by the following testimony from Mrs. Joseph Lake, of Brockway Jentre, Mich.: — “Liver complaint and _indigestion made my life a burden and camo near ending my existence. For more than four years I suffered untold agony, was reduced almost to a skeleton, and hardly had strength to drag myself about. Ail kinds of food distressed me, and only the most delicato could be digested a om en- all. iin the time mentioned several Physicians treated me without giving re- Nothing that I took seomed *o do any permanent good until I commenced the use of Ayer's Sarsnparilla, which has produced ‘wouderful results.
