It Was Not Neurly So Funny When the Court Took the Matter Up. “Blondie” Clark’s little joke caused Grant O'Dell to be called before Judge Keysor to show cause why he should not be committed for contempt of court in neglecting to obey a restraining order granted one day last week to prevent the sale of some property which had been levied on execution. The caso grew out of a jidgment of som:thing over $100, obtained in Justice Brandes' court by O'Dell against Elijah Stoddard and Mary D. Stoddard. The defendants are the owners of a farm just north of the city limits, and carly last” spring they removed to Texas. O'Dell afterward obtained his judgment to satisfy an old claim, and as the amount was not paid, Constable Clark levied on three horses and other property which the de- fendants had left behind them. The Stod- dards got wind of this and brought suit to set aside the judgment on the ground of inadequate service, and obtained a restrain- ing order directing the constable not to pro- ceed with the sale, A few days after Clark met the attorneys for the Stoddards and told them he had sold and delivered the property to his brother- in-law, John Bailey, for $125. The attorneys hustled back to court and made a showing on which O'Dell was cited to answer to the cliarge-of contempt, A hearing was had yes- terday and Clark explained that it was all a joke, and_ the property in question was still intact and waiting for the case to be decided. O'Dell_was consequently released, but the court failed to appreciate the joke, and im- proved the occasion to somewhat severely criticise the joker. Accused of Belng Insano. The insanity commission was in session yesterday in Judge Scott's court room for the purpose of passing on the case of John D. Thomas, who was arrested Saturday. Thomas is quite a familiar character in Omaha. He has lost a good deal of money during recent years, and it is claimed that his losses have affected his brain and that he has threatened to kil various persons who he imagined had been responsible for his trouble. About twenty witnesses have been called in by each side, among whom are some of the leading lawyers and physicians of the city. Only two witnesses were examined on account of the absence of Mr. Thomas' , and the board adjourned until this at 2 o . The testimony aken failed to substantiate the allegations that had been made that Thomas had_ma threats against those who he imagined had injured him. County Interested in These, County Attorney Kaley Is preparing the briefs in the case of Kellar and Doane against the county for consideration by the supreme court. This is the test case in the old Doug: las county lot - transactions which was de cided adver to the county in the dis- trict court. There are several similar ca on the same issue. so that tne entire amount involved is not far from §250,000. The briefs in the case of Joseph Taylor against the county will be transmitted to the supreme court today. Taylor sued for damages on account of the change of g on Leavenworth street and obtained a ver- dict for $500. The case was .appealed and will soon be decided. Wants » Divorce. Sarah E.

FURAY. 10t Public Works aming Numer us. The number of candidates who are anxiously looking for the nomination of a member of the Board of Public Works by the mayor Tuesday night has been materlally in- creased during the past few days. Up to the time when Mr. Schrum's appointment was re- Jected by the council scarcely more than a half-dozen applicants were scheduled for con- sideration. ~ Apparently the fleld saw hope abead when the first appointment was side- tracked, and since then applications have poured In thick and fast. At present there are nearly thirty applications on file at the mayor's office. Among the more recent can- didates are Philip Andres, L. F. McGinn, D. Kenniston, J. O, Corby, John P. Daley, F. E. Balley, Captain Jolin O'Donahue, John Thiessen, Levl Blickensderfer and Sam Macleod While each of these is using every effort to convince the mayor that he has an in- contestable claim to consideration, it is rumored about the city hall that the name that will be presented Tuesday night has never been spoken of In connection with the position. ‘The candidates themselves are not disposed to glve credence to the report, but it is nevertheless quletly given out that the nominee will be a surprise party to the coun- andidates for the e the performing lions aft.

Down the Rob- Atnoon yesterday August Grimm, a farmer residing In the vicinity of Elkhorn, this county, met a couple of highwaymen right in the art of the city, and all that saved him from being robbed was a pair of good stout legs and the power to propel them. Grimm had come to the city early in the morning for the purpose of hauling out a load of freight for one of the Elkhorn mer chants. He had loaded up his wagon and had driven into the alley between Harne and Howard and Thirteenth and Foul teenth streets. There he had unhitched and had put his horses into a feeding stable close by, after which he had gone up town to do some trading. Just at noon, with his arms full of bundles, he walked up the alley for the purpose of depositing his load in the wagon, after which he intended to hitch up and start for home. As he turned around, after having de- posited the bundles In the wagon, he was confronted by two men, onq of whom had a *bistol, which he pointéd at Grimm's Whi this was going on the second man grabbed the farmer by the throat, exciaim- ing, “D—n you, give up your money, and do it d—n quick, too.” The man from Elkhorn does not lay any claim to being brave, but instead of glving up his wealth he gave a yell that was heard for blocks away, and breaking loose struck a gait that would make any professional sprinter turn green with envy. He ran to the police station, where he gave an accurate description of the two men and then re- turned to the spot with a couple of detectives who were detailed to work up the case. A careful search was made in the vicinity, but no trace of the highwaymen was discovered though It was afterward learned that tw men_answering their description had crosse the bridge and had hurried on toward Coun- cil Bluffs a short time after the assault had been made upon Grimm e Colie Promptly Cured. A few days ago when I had an attack of colic in the bowels, I took a dose of Cham- berlain’s Colic, Cholera and Diarrhoea Remedy, and within ten minutes all of my colic pains had disappearcd. I am highl pleased with the remedy and take pleasur in recommending it. Z.

B TO PROTECT THE RIVER, Mr. Berlin Will Prot Florence Lake from Further nchments. S. Berlin of the Missouri river com- fon left for St. Louis yesterday for the purpose of prefecting the arrangements for the expenditure of the $75,000 appropriated for protecting the river front in the vicinity of this city. Mr. Berlin, in speaking of the matter of river bank protection, says that he was of the opinion that the full amount of the ap- propriation would be expended this season and that the work would begin within the next thrty days. Most, if not all, of the work would be done between Florence and the Union Pacific bridge. The first place whero the commission would direct its at- tention, Mr. Berlin said, would be at Flor- ence, where an attempt would be made to prevent the river from cutting away and leaving the water sworks plant high and dry wpon a sandbar. After this matter was disposed of Mr. Berlin thought that some work would be done in the vicnity of Fior- ence lake in order to prevent the river from cutting through the low lands and flowing into Courtland lake.

The mystery surrounding the finding of a skeleton under the Dodge street school house a few days ago was greatly increased yesterday afternoon by the finding of another within two feet of the place where the first was discovered. These remains are evi- dently those of a woman, and a string of amber beads were found around the neck of the frame. There is an old trap door over the place where the bodies were lying, and it looked as if it had been disturbed at some time since it had been nailed down. There seems to be no doubt but that the body was buried there at the same time tho other one was, and that one was a man and the other a woman. A surgeon who exam- ined the bones of the skeletons was of the opinfon that the bodies nad been in the ground six or seven years. The police will begin a thorough investigation at once. by binis CONGRESSIONAL CONVENTIUN.

STANDS FOR STATE RIGHTS Missouri and the Stats Department at Log- gerbeads Again, GOVERNOR STONE DEFIES CHIEF HAZEN Mississippi's Executive Insists on Issuing Warrants for Use standing Orders fro al Government to oney Notwithe Mise,, July 16, sippi ture at its last an act authorizing the governor, the auditor and the treasurer to issue treasury warrants In denominations of $5 should it become necessary to tide over the financial crisis limited to $200,000, It was legislature to have the all over the state The session Missl passod The Issue was the Intention of the warrants pass as money Immediately after the passage of the act the state auditor contracted with the St Louis Bank Note company for the printing of the warrants and the first instaliment of $50,000 was delivered to the state treasury and placed in circulation a few weeks ago. Governor Stone has sin received a dis- patch from General Hazen, chief of the United States sccret service at Washington, demanding that the governor send to him all of the unsigned warrants that have not peen placed in circulation. Mr, Hazen telegraphed the St. Louls Bank Note com- pany that the plates be turned over to the government. In an interview Governor Stone stated that he would not comply with Chief Hazen's demand in any particular and that the issue of the special warrants will be contimued until the full issue of $200,000 is completed. The state officials regard Hazen's demands as an unwarranted interference and will not treat it seriously. They say that the demands were based on the assumption that these special warrants resemble too closely United States currency and violate the laws of the United States This is denied by Governor Stone, who says the act of the legislature is approved by the best legal authoriti®s in the country. The avditor has telegraphed the St. Louis Bank Note company not to pay any attention to Hazen's demands ST. LOUIS, July 16.—Inquiries at the office of the St. Louis Bank Note company re vealed the fact that the entire issue of war- rants has been completed and shipped to the Mississippl authorities. It is, therefore, im- possible for the company to comply with the demand of Chief Hazen and he has been so notified. The plates from which the warrants were printed are in the possession of the Great Western Printing company of Chicago, for which company the St. Louis corporation acted as agent In this Instance. The St Louis company has been directed by Gov- crnor Stone not to surrender the plat but at the same time the local branch of the secret service has made an imperative de- mand for them, acting under Chief Hazen's orde What action may be taken in the matter will, the St. Lou's Bank Note com- pany officials say, be directed by the Great Western company, who have, however, been advised of Governor Stone's telegraplic in- structions.

U. They further condemned the alleged action of the chlef in sending officers to meet Ho- gan's Commonweal army at the East Omaha bridge and attempting (o force them to land on the Iowa side of the river. The mem- bers of the Central Labor union committee asked the board to investigate these acts of the chief, and if they found him guilty as charged, to remove him from the head of the police department. The matter was re- ferred to the committee on men and dis- cipline. Tho charges against the conduct of Officer Stiles by William Sidner turned out to be groundle:s, and before the trial was ended the officer’ sought to show that they were inspired by malice, and that Sidner hzd been hired by Louis Shields to file these charges nst him. About a year ago Stiles arrested Shields for assault, and the man then made threats that he would get the officer fire from the force. Officer Stiles had Mr. Guill, manager of the Annex saloon, as one of his witnesses, and Guill testified that Sidner came Into his place about six weeks ago and said to him that it he would testify against Officer Stiles there was money in it for him (Sidner).

He reasoned with himself thus: If a man who sleeps is a sleeper, why could not a sleeper make all men sleep? He struck it—and the next day he started with a net balance of 15¢ to Jackson Park at Chicago, and got the first sleeper he came across, bought him a beer, and set him in motion: They say Pullman has been after sleepers ever since. Bye and bye he started a stock company to Pull-man's wages down and Pull-man up on upper berths at pull-leg prices—anl now all people of Chicago can't slecp on account of it. —(To be continued in our next ) Omaha has some sleepers of course —but they se dom trouble anyone—The Nebraska objects not for you to sleep until—— .
