The motion for a change of venue in the case of the state against Herman Parr will Bo heard in the district court this morning. The defense is supported by affidavits from U. I Stewart, Captain O. M. Brown and others, who allege that public feeling has been so stirred up against the motor com- pany that it is jmpossibie for Parr to have a fair and impartial hearing before a Potta- wattamie county jury. The state will oppose the change on the ground that there is no feeling against Parr that will tend to preju- dice him in_the minds of the jurymen. There will be no more jury cases tried until next Tuesday, when “Doug” Burns, the alleged burglar of the Keeline prem ) will have a trial. The probability is that the torm will end next week and the prison- ers be sentenced noxt Saturday.

J. Babeock of St. Paul's church and the young ladies of his congregation. As every- one knows, this is the Lenten season, in which all who have not been good during the year arc supposed to make up for lost time by being uncommonly good. Bails, parties and soclal functions generally tabooed, and the fair maidens give them- selves up to religlous meditation and making plans and specifications for Easter bonnets. Not long ago, however, the quietude of Lent was disturbed by.a party at the home of one of the young ladies, to which quite a number of the young pecple of the church were invited, 1t a rather informal and decidedly gay affair, and although the fair ones do not tell all they know, it is com- monly reported that more than one fantastic toe was tripped. Rev. Mr. Babeock he of the affair and last Sunday he astour some of his youthful heare by making a public allusion to their sinfulness in thus depriving themselves of the spiritual bene- fits which Lent is supposed to bring the t the church. He even went so that a repetition of the offense would result in the offender receiv- ing her letter from the church. This threat might reaso; bly be expected to have the desired effect, but it did not. Last Thursday night a party was given by several young society men of the city, and of all the young ladies of St. Paul’ church who were 50 fortunate as to receive invitations there were only two who feared the rector's threat enough to deny them selves the pleasure of an evening's dancing, while there were as many as a dozen who went and enjoye th festivities of the cvening, although with quaking hearts. The question that is now agitating the minds of the fair ones is, how much of the rector's threat was really and truly meant? Mr, Babeock is not commonly considered a man given to “bluffing,” least of all in the pulpit, and there are some girls who will not be surprised at recelving their walking papers in the near future. HUNT AND E 3 Candldates for School Board Selected After « Stormy Convention. There were sand burs in the road, and the people who held the nonpartisan convention last cvening were all barefooted. Most of them were democrads. The s court room at the county court vas well filled when the meeting was called to order by Lucius Wells, who summoned W. H. Ware to act as chairman. F. H. Evans v chosen secretary. A motlon was made appoint a committee of six to select candi- dates, and to have the committee composed of three republicans and three democrats. It was right at this point that John Ahles caused a commotion by voting, with a lot of his friends, against this proposition, and then jumping up and shoutin Mr. Chair- man, I'm one of those who said no; there are a good many of us independents here, and we want to be represented.” A division of the house was called for, and the motion was found carried by a vote of 65 to 28, After one and another had refused to serve on the committee, six men were found who were willing to ser and their names were as follows: Oscar Keeline, John Pusey and G. H. Jackson, republicans, and =W. H. Thomas, U. H. White and M. F. Rohrer, democrats. While the committee was out preparing its report some one called for John Ahles. That gentleman had been refused recognition by the chair when he made his former outburst, and his collar had become warm almost to incandescence. ‘“Gentle- men,” he said, “I will not talk unless your chalrman requests it.’ And then he pro- ceeded to talk. *“Mr. Chairman, I wonder it you know there are any populists in this city. This is a citlzens’ meeting and we populists don’t like to be slapped in tho face in this way.” He then turned to the audience and commenced to roast Mr. Ware, who ac- cepted his ante-mortem cremation in a truly Christlan spirit. He exhorted the members of the convention not to glve over their -public affairs into the hands of such politicians as Ware. By this time the audience had become uproarious and com- menced to yell. For several minutes Ahles tried to talk, but whenever he would start a new sentence the audience would start a new yell. He finally gave it up as a bad job and went through a highly cdifying pantomime performance which lasted several minutes. He then strode from the hall amid the yells of the convention. Quiet having been restored, a motion was made by Emll Schurz that a committee con- sisting of two democrats, two republicans and a populist be_appointed to draw up a set of resolutions. Tlhe motion was carried, and the committee consisted of 0. P. Wick. ham, I F. Hendricks, W. A. Wood, Peter Smith and L. Kinnehan. The committee on candidates reported, recommending John T. Oliver and F. H. Evi S. B. Wadsworth moved to substi- tute the name of J. F. Hunt of the Sixth ward for that of Oliver, because there were already three members of the board from the Third ward. The amendment was car- ried by a vote of &8 to 49, and Mr. Hunt signified his willingness to serve It elocted, The committee on resolutions then re- ported, the majority report simply declaring in favor of a nonpartisan board and strict economy in the expenditure of public funds. Mr. Kinnehan presented a minority report of the resolutions which were passed at the populist convention the night before. Am- brose Burke moved that the minority report be adopted, but the attempt to railroad it through was defeated, R. N. Whittlesey and Lucius Wells denouncing several of the planks as mis enting the facts, par- ticularly those with reference to the High school cadets and the frequent changing of text books. The report was t n up by sectlons, and after nearly all of it had been weeded out what s left was adopted in the following form: We belicve that the intelligence of the people is the safeguard of our country and therefor favor the v of o suflicient tax to maintain the public schools in such a manner as to produce the greatest pos- sible good to the peovle, > that in times of great business esslon and general distress among the lle and poorer classes the taxes should be reduced to the minimum conslstent with the public good We are in favor of the tre gchool bonrd advertisir for bids from the different banks for the deposit of schopl funds, such interest to be turned into the school treasury As our school bulldings a all detached property and therefore t r from fire 50 small, we rre in f of the Ais- trict carrying 1ts own risks, thereby saving the large sums of money pald out annually to fire insurance companies, 4 If the proposition to sell the present High school property should carry then the board of school directors shall submit to the people th price to be paid for it, to be voted on to whether or not we will ake the vrice offered The paragraphs opposing the levying of more taxes than were necesary, reducing teachers' salaries, denouncing the superin tendent for changing text books, opposing tho erection of a High school and other bulldings and the selectlon of teachers by reason of abllity, favoring the ection of a school house on Courtland beach, and de- nouncing the High school ¢ s were stricken out.

R. Bush had on deposit in that institution about $7,000 of Johnson county's money. Before retiring from the office, and at his final settlement with the commissioners January 1, Mr. Bush presented in settlement the certificates of deposit on the collapsed bank for said amount. They were deemed worthless by the commissionors and the connty attorney was instructed to take steps toward the collection of the amount from Bush or his bondsmen, and as the former is not worth the amount the loss threatened to fall on the latter. Friends of the un- fortunate ex-treasurer and his bondsmen came to their relief this week, however, and a petition to the Board of County Commissioners, asking that Mr. Bush and his bondsmen be exonerated from said lability and that the loss fall upon the county has been promliscuously circulated over the county and the names of huntreds of voters attached to it. The petition did not meet general approval, however, and scarcely had it suggested itself until one in remonstrance was being circulated by poli- tical enemies of the gentlemen in question. The parties advancing the last petition, though aware that Mr, Gush and his sureties were the vietims of unfortunate circum- starfees, were of the opinion that-they should grin and bear it. And now a lively war wages with the circulators and sup- porters of the opposing petitions. S e, Salvation Oil is a certain cure for head- ache, toothache, earache, ete. Only 25 cents.
