Sewcll and Frank Hubbard be dismissed All of the parties have veen twice indicted and each one of them has been acquitted on one count of the indictments. Several counts yet remain to be tried. The petition recites the fact that the county hasalready ex- pended over $20,000 in the attempt to convict the indicted men of the charges brought against them: that it will be an unwise ex- penditure of public money to_further prose- cute the parties; that there is no possibility of their conviction, even if brought to wrial, upon the remaining couuts against them; that the strongest cases agains. them have been tried and that there is no reason to Bope or expect that further trials would re- salt in conviction, After the petition had been drawn up it was formally discussed and it was resolved 1o hold another meeting to make a few changes in the wording of the papers.

Hraxsis, Neb., Dec. 5. —[Special to Taz Bee.|—This town was thrown into a state of great excitement over the acts of a crazy man last night. He is- a hunter and came here from Illinois with two friends last Au- gust. His frionds had noticed this spell coming on him for a week or more, but he was not often subject to them in the winter and they thought little about the matter until yesterday afternoon, when a tele. gram came from Whitney stating he had been there and cut up some of his pranks. Then the people began vo watch him. He was asleep in the depot with his gun on his breast when some one gave the alarm. About twenty men went to take him ia charge. When they were at the crossing, which 1s abont 2 rod and a half from the depot platform, he began to shoot. He then mounted a horse, which was tied to a post, and rode over the hills north of town. The horse belonzed to a ranchman andwent home with the crazy man, who walked back to town and was about to board the 2:30 a. m. passenger truin east when he was cap- tured.

LESINGTON, gram to Tue Bee Neb., Dac. 5.—[Special Tele- he vault of the Daw- son County National bank was entered by burglars last night.

From here the robbers drilled thre two feeto! soia masonry and desc inlo the vault. Noattempt was made to open the bank safe and efforts to drill into the safe deposit boxes were unsuccessful, “The only booty secured was_that contained inatin box belonging to Mrs. Siguor, tha postmistress, and amountiog to about £100. The thieves did not take any stamps, even. rope was lowered from the opening in the too of the vault by means of which the robbers lowered themselves and o0k their departure from the vault. ‘T'we caudles, nearly burned out, were left behind.

Commercial Cluh Has a Lively Discussion on lusurance Rates, At the monthly meetiog of the Commer- cial elub last night Secretary Drexel an- nounced that the present membership was 702. Of this number 650 are active, working members. Mr. Drexel said he had good reason to think that the club would nave 1,000 memvers in 4 few months. Dues to the amount of $6,830 had been collected and $4,000 had been disbursed in expenses. The secrotary predicted that by January 1, the club would be entirely free from debt. The prospective location of the govern- ment Indjan supply depot was discussed. The executive committee was instructed to make a formal proposition to the govern- ment to the effect that Omaha would furnish o suitavle building at a nominal rental of $4,000 per annum, giving bonds for faithful performance of contract. provided that the club secures finaucial backing vhich will absolve the club from responsi- bility. Commiissioner Utt read the correspondence previously mentioned in THE Bee in relation to the extension of the St. Paul & Duinth railway to Omaha. He was authorized ‘o encourage the nroject, and the club deciaed 1o use every effort to secure the new outlet. The commissioner then read several letters with relation to the location of a new whole- sale house and factory. He reported progress and expressed the belief that his efforts would be crowned with success. President Gibbon then brought up the sub- ject of insurancerates, ueeded improvements in fire protection and iamentable lack of high water pressure, as was demonstrated at the Farnam Street theater fire. He said that the people were taxed exorbitant rates for a high pressure that did not exist when wanted. The pressure was sufticient to cause plumbing bills in profusion, but when it came to a neoded high pressurc ata big fire, he declarea with an audible sigh of regret that the pressure was not there, He had heard that the fire insurance com- panies contemplated a raise in rates and that the cause was poor fire protection. He did not want to see an advance in rates, and thought that the remedy lay in scctring beiter protection agaiust fir Commissioner Utt followed by echoiug the seatiments expressed by the chairman. He read letiers from Kansas City and other cities showing that Omaha rates were lower at present than elsewhere. Chris Hartman was called upon to express his views upon the subject. He frankly stated that insurance men were rot satisfied with the valued policy law and the present fire protection of the city of Omaba. As a member of the Board ot Fire and Police Commissioners he had made every effort to give good fire protection on the money at the disposal of the board for such a purpose. He reported that the fire and police board haa revently or- dered another fire engina, which would be received February 10, and he thought that with three engines and better inspection of mercantile houses and ouildings the fire in- surance rates would not be increasea, but doubted _exceediogly any reduction in present figures. He said that insurance rates in other cities of the size of Omaha. with better fire protection were much higher. Mr. Hartman roasted the valued policy law and the careless mau- ner in which some merchants took chances of having their property destroyed. He be- lieved that some business men who were in debt and staring at commercial gloom would nov shed many tears if their property was destroyed if they were well insured. He said that a raise in rates oo high buildings was in contemplation, but he hoped to stay it with assurauces of better fire protection. He reported the present equipment of the iire department, and_said the men gave the best service possible umnder the circum- stances. Captain Palmer upheld the insurance com- panies and cited a number of statistics. Ho said that §720,000 was paid out by insurance companies at Omaha in one year. The question was discussed at length and in the midst of the discussiona fire alarm was sounded. There was a general rash for the windows as the envines dashod down the street. Tlis brought matters to a head. Mr. Montgomery moved that the Comumer- cisl club ask the authorities for a better system of inspection and & resolution was passed authorizing the oficers of the club 10 take steps toward assisting in securing an increased appropriation for tho Bourd of Fire and Police Commissioners. Tne pur- chase of more fire engines was strongly urged. The general sentiment was hostile to an increase in insurance rates. The sub- fect of arigid insnection of electric wiring in buildings was favorably acted upon, and the club will urge the appointment of two inspectors for the general fire protection of the city. It was generally conceded last evening that unless prompt action was taken rates would go up. At 10 o'clock the meeting adjourned to meet one month hence to elect ofticers and transact other business of a routine nature. Thursday evening at 7 o'clock a reception 10 the ductors and dentists of the city will be given at the club rooms. e The Modern Mother Has found that her little ones are improved more by the pleasant laxative, Syrup of Figs, when in need of the laxative effect of a gentie remedy than by any other, and that it is more accoptable to them.

Hawing made a tour of the county schools, Superintendont Hill has returaed to his oftice 4n the court house, where yesterday morning he handed down a decision which will glad- dea the hearts of a large number of the citizens of South Omaba, and at the same time will end a fight which has been on aur- ing the past eight years. As early as 1885 the school district of South Omaha was created, including all that por- tion of the corporation which was platted. By oversight of the superintendent of pnblic instruction who was in office at that time the westorn boundary of the aistrict over- iapped the eastern boundary of district No. 4, laking off & strip of its territory one mile wide and two miles loug. Sluce that time this urig:.l couniry has seitled very rapidly until it become the most populous por- tion of the city, beiog & part of the Third ward. Blln’ within the city liwits, the Board of Education of South Omaba bas sought 1o exercise jurisdictiou over the strip, while the oficers of distriot No. 4 have claimed jurisdiction and have asked for the school tax arising from ®he annual levy. This has resultea in a cenagant conflict of authority and. as a_result, the interests of the schools have suffered The officors of district N 4 have exacted tuition from the outside pipils who attenaed school withia she strin, while the South Omaha school ofticers hAvd exacted tuition fees from those childran who happened to come from beyond the western boundaries of the strip. In passing upon the qiestion Superintend- ent Hill holds that thd strip of land is & part of the school district of Sauth Omaha and that the children of the city b right to attend the school that 1s muintained therein, and without paving tuivien to the other dis: trict, which, by reason. of tho decision, is made separate and distitict by the Mayor. day evening allowed oramance No. ome a law without his signature. This is the ordinance locating a dozen or more fire hydrants in aifferent por- tions of the eity. Only a few months ag0 the mayor vetoed an ordinance similar to this one, giving then his reason for so doing tha: the law read very plainly on this matter that no such ex- pense could be legally created unless an ap- proprinvion was made for that specific pur- pose. Tae ordinance anather was sprung which covered the st ground. This 1s the one.the mayor allowed 1o become a law Monday night without his signature. In spoakiog of the ordinance day moraing Mayor Walker said: “There is no persom in the city of South Omaba who would like to see bet- ter fire facilitics than mysolf. But in order to protect my bondsmen I could not sign the ordinance. The law says thatan appropriatior for that specific purpese must first be made by the council before the work can be ordered doue. This is why I pursued the course I did.” vester- A Kick on Carrol Sheriff-cloct Drexela few days ago ap- pointed John Carrail of this city as one of his deputies. Since the appointment has become generally known there has been a kick registered by some of the democrats, who claim that Carroll does not rvepresent the party here. John J. O'Rourke is one ot these men. John is aisoa candidate for a deputyship. Mr. O'Rourke’s name also ap pears on the endorsement of Mr. Carroll. The Jeffersonian club of Omaha has taken a hand in the matter, and it may be that enough influence will be sught 1o bear to cause Mr. Drexel to change his sclection. Mr. Drexel left the selection of the South Omaha deputy to some of the democrats here und it scems that Carcoll se- cured the endorsement of the moguls were allowed to diclate. Mr. Brennan, who was at one time chief of police here, was tendered the deputyship, but refused o cept it. Some of the democrats woula like to see O'Rourke get tho deputyship under Drexel in order to keep tim from _attempt- ing to run for mayor here m the spring. Concert and Kecital, The concert and recital given last night under the auspices of the South Omuha Baptist church proved to be a flattering success. The cburch was filled and the pro. gram was excellent in detail. Mrs. Mary E. Monroe of this city gave three recitations and was tendered a perfect ovation. Al though Mrs. Monroe but vecently made he debut as an elocutionist, her efforts have met with splendid success. . When it is an- nounced that the balance of the program consisted of numbers by Mrs. Cotuon, Mrs. Moeller, Mr. Wilkins and Mr. Lum- bard, with Prof. J. Butler as pianist 1t is sufficient to know the affair was of a nigh musical order. Each solo, duet and quartet was warmly reccived, and the singers responded nappily. ‘These concerts are given annually by the Baptist church and are the musical events of the season in South Omaha. Mr. Jettor's Laberality. Mr. Jetter, the brewer, has opened up his heart and proposes to give away to the city poor a carlond of coal. 'Monday evening Mr. Jetter announced to Mayor Walker that the coal was ready to ve delivered if his honor would furnish the names-ofthe needy. Sev- ersl names were given then snd there and the balance will be supplied as they are dis- covered. Mr. Jetter is a generous citizen ana is always among the first to donate for a charitable purpose.
