Acting County Judge Wurzburg sald that he would take the case under advisement and decide at 9 o'clock to- morrow morning whether or not he would hold the defendants over to the district court. JUDGE STRODE'S SUCCESSOR. Governor Crounse today put an end to the very lively little fight that has been in progress here ever since the election over the appointment of a successor to Judge Strode, Just elected to congress. Thero were 8 dozen or more prominent candidates, but the fight was waged o bitterly that the governor brought in a dark horse and named Rim. The next judge will be E. P. Holmes, & member of the firm of Fleld & Holmes, of which Judge Field, who made such a gallant ggm against Mr. Bryan two years ago, is the ead. Mr. Holmes' commission was made out this morning and is now in his posses- sion. He will take charge on the 1st of January and will hold until the next general electicn, 5 The Bar association recently met and after a stormy session selected John M. Stewart to b> recommended to the governor for the Judgeship. Many of the members refused to vite, but after the meeting the fight was again resumed. John P. Maule, the county chalrman of the republican contral commit- tee, and A. J. Cornish, ex-member of the legislature, were the principal candidates. Today the lawyers are busy figuring out how it happened, but the most plausible theory 18 that Judge Strode was permitted to namo his own successor, and that he named Holmes in deference to Judge Field's request and in payment of Field's magnanimously getting out of Strode's way last fall when the fight for the Lancaster delegaticn was on. The new appointee is 38 years old and a graduate of the State university, which In- stitution he entered in 1870, when but 14 years of age. He was admitted to the bar in this county in 1879 and in 1882 removed to Plerce county. During his residence there he was elected regent of the State university and during his incumbency of that office was also a member of the leg'slature in 1885 trom Plerce. At the conclusion of the session he settled in Lincoln, and has been practicing law here ever ‘sinca, being first assoclated with Judge Webster and afterward with Judge Fleld. Ho Is a lawyer of more than average ability, of gcod standing, and his appolntment gives good satisfaction outside of the ranks of the disappointed aspirants. HEAVY FORECLOSURE. In dlstrict court today Judge Strode entered up a decree cf foreclosure in tho sult brought by creditors of Kendall & Smith, the millers and grain dealers. The Pennsylvania Insurance company got a first len for $20,000, J. W. Mofiley second for $10,000, Congdon & Davis one fcr $45,000, the Lottridge estate $10,800, Newport Sav- ings bank $5,000, and several minor ones, bringing the fotal up over $100,000. Edward P. Allis & Co. of Milwaukee endeavored to secure the enforcerent of a mechanic’s lien for $5,600 for machinery furnished, but this was denfed on the ground that it was not flled within the required time. The property prdered sold includes the defendants’ mill at Woodlawn and 1,280 acres of land imme- diately adjoining Silas H. Burnham, as trustee of the Ameri- can Exchange National bank, began suit in the district court today to foreclose a trust deed for $31,600, executed by J. H. Me- Murtry and wife on some twenty pieces of valuable property in and about the city. McMurtry was formerly one of the city's most substantial real estate dealers, but the panio and the shrinkage in land values has almost wiped him out. Robert McReynclds, the well known theat- rical manager and author of ‘“The Luxury of Poverty,” was a plaintift in the divorce court today. He testified that he married Susan Rellly, an Oklahoma belle, two years ago, but that she beat him, threw teacups at him and scolded him night and day. The defendant did nct appear and he was given a divorce, next Dodge County Hrevities. FREMONT, Dec. 4.—(Special)—Rev. A. J. Nathan, the evangelist, who took part in misslonary meetings here several days, de- parted yesterday for his home at Oklahoma City, He will leave America in about two weeks for Morocco, where he will engage in missionary work. Willie Bowerman, aged 15, ran away from his home in this city several weeks ago, and has been heard from in San Francisco, where he has employment, He went through by the blind baggage route. His parents pro- pose to let him stay whers he is. He had @ membership card in the Fremont Young Men's Christian association, and this proved more valuable than money, since it was the means of his being provided with food and shelter, and finally parmanent employment. Sherift Milliken returned yesterday from Cherokee county, Kansas, bringing with him “Dynamite Jack,” a fellow who painted roofs sn Fremont last summer and who is wanted for running away with a team mortgaged 1o a local broker. An operation was performed at the Fre- mont hospital yesterday upon the little daughter of J. T. Camp, publisher of the Scribner Rustler.

BUTTE, Neb, Deo, 4.—(Special)—The many requests made for ald by the destitute farmers and citizens of Boyd county have met with but little response from the generous poople of Nebraska. At a meeting of the relief committee, appointed by the county commissioners, the following appeal was Is- sued, and coples mailed to the different cities and towns not included in the drouth- stricken reglon, and the good citizens of Ne- braska will undoubtedly do something to help Boyd county people tide over the win- ter, every means here having been exhausted: men: Boyd county was opened for settlement In 1801; the people who came to that county were industrious, but fortune has not smiled upon us. The spring of '92 found our people breaking the sod and iting the first crop, but very little of the was under cultivation, and therefore nough was raised to supply their fm- ate demands, o veur of ‘03 gave us from one-third to one-half a crop, and '94 a_complete failure. Our_people are In need and some are ctually suffering, and unless we receive d at once many more will suffer. All we ask I8 enough to sustain life during the winter, e expect to secure aid from the state for weed wheat, corn, oats, etc., but we_must look to you'and others for food. Now If you can ald us in any way with provisions, clothing, shoes, or money, we will be very thankful. Ship to Butte, via Stuart, Neb. Foping you will lend us immediate assist- ance, we remain, very respectfully, MR. A. 1. ROWLAND, MRS, JAMES FORBES, JR. REV. C. F.

Boyd County Citizens Held to the Distriot Court. BUTTE, Neb., Dec. 4.—(Special.)~The pre- liminary hearing in the case against Whiting, Storms and Kloke, the Spencer election board accused of fraudulently voting fictitious bal- lots at the bond election October 16, was taken up in the county court Friday, before Judge Skuse. After the introduction of about twenty-flve witnesses, who testified that they had voted in favor of the proposition (the re- turns showing only eighteen votes) the state rested, and the defense moved to dismiss, be- cause the prosecution had failed to show that fictitious ballots were cast, as charged in the complaint. Judge Skuse overruled the mo- tion for the reason that although the state had failed to make a case on the complaint, there was still a “probable cause” for hold- ing them to the district court, which was done. The bail was fixed at $500 each, which was quickly furnished. Mrrigation In Sherman County, LOUP CITY, Neb., Dec. 4.—(Speclal)— The Sherman County Irrigation, Water Power and Improvement company, which was organized and incorporated last August, is now actively employed In excavating and constructing their canal, extending from Ar- cadla to Rockville, in the Middle Loup val- ley, a distance of over twenty-six miles.

Connor's Condition Improved. GRAND ISLAND, Dec. 4.—(Special.)— Thomas J. Connor, the agent of the B. & M., whose unfortunate condition was re- ported in this morning's Bee, has greatly improved in the last forty-eight hours, and his physician hopes for his complete and speedy recovery.

Douglas Street Theater Manager Leaves Employes Crylng for Pay. Duncan Clarke, the manager of the Doug- las Street theater, better known as the Peo- pla’s theater, is alleged to have left for parts unknown, and behind him he has left a number of people whose chief object of existence at present is to lay eyes upon him. It Is sald that yesterday afterncon he re- ceived from Manager Burgess of the Fit- teenth Street theater, which was destroyed by fire yesterday morning, $500 for the lease of the part of the building occupled by the Douglas Street theater, and then, packing up his possessions, he folded his tents and sllently stole away. The stage hands and the company playing in the house have lost salaries that exceed $1,000 by a considerable amount. ) The first intimation that the employes had of Clarke's disappearance was yester- day " afternoon. He had instructed them that a rehearsal would take place at 3 o'clock, and they were all there at theé ap- pointed hour, Clarke did not appear, but in a short time Mr. Burgess came on the scene and wanted to know why they were all about. They told him, and he informed them that he had bought the lease and that he was now manager of the house. Then ensued a scene of wailing and gnashing of teeth, but it availed nought. Clarke was gone, and with him everything but one trunk. Last night the two sons of Clarke, George and Duncan, took the trunk to the A. D. T. offico across the street and (n- structed the manager to keep it there unti) morning, when he would be told where to send it. They piaced it in a conspicuous place near the door. The male employes of Clarke watched It with greedy eyes, and shortly after sent Constable Dailey after it with an attachment issued from Justice Brandes' court. The trunk was not opened, but the employes of the messenger office are convinced that it was filled with bricks packed in hay, judging from the welght, They think that it was simply a trick on Clarke's part to keep his victims off his trail and that it was never meant to be called for. The employes whom Clarke Bas forsaken are large in number. The Piol aninny Minstrel company was the last at- tra n. The members were composed of the Pickaninny band that has recently sprung up in Omaha. Besldes these, in a boarding house at Fourteenth and Douglas streets are seven girls whom Clarke has left bshind almost without a cent of money. Thelr names are Dora Mount Temple, Daisy Hines, Josle Melville, Vivian Lee, Georgie De Orsay, Clara Rogers and Frankie Londoner. They lodge In a room which contains a stove, but they have no coal to feed it. Where today's breakfast will come from they are unable to tell. Clarke owes each of them, and some of them five or six weeks' salary at $5 a week, and two of them were promised $20 a week. They have recelved only $2 or $3 aplece since they were engaged. Besides these there are two stage hands, Ed Galla- gan and Charles Frank, whom Clarke owed $40. These two last attached the trunk. The heaviest loser is Charles B. Lombard, who has been with Clarke all season and who has a claim for $500. Clarke s sald to be in Council Bluffs. When his two sons came to get the trunk last night they were cornered by the male employes and asked where Clarke w They said that he would be around by 11 o'clock, but although a reczption committee was Io walting for him he never came back. WILL GO OUT FOR THE MONEY Bubsoriptions to Back a Bid for the Btate Fair to Bo Solicited, PROGRESS MADE AT LAST NIGHT'S MEETING Shadow of un Organization Begins to Loom Up—West Side Grounds Preferred for & Slio—Rack Track Wanted in Any Event. The meeting of the business men interested in securing the state fair for Omaha and es- tablishing a first class mile race track and racing association, held at the rooms of the Commercial club last evening was much larger and even more enthusiastic over the prospects for the fulfiliment of the project than the original meeting a week ago. W. V. Morse again acted as chairman, and the first business in order was the hearing of the report of the committee appointed at the first meeting to receive bids on locations and to confer with the railroads and other in- fluential corporations and devise ways and means for the speedy accomplishment of the work in hand, Mr. Clark, the chairman, stated that the committee had received three propositions on sites, and that it was the unanimous opinion of the committee that an organization should be immediately formed, to be known as the Omaha Fair and Driving Park association, and that citizens proceed to solicit stock in a sum not less than $50,000, to enable them to put In their proposition for the state fair by the 1st of January. It also thought it best to leave the question of location alone for the present, in order that other proposi- tions might be received, PROPOSITIONS FOR SITES. Among the propositions already in hand was one from the owners of the land of the West Side Driving Park association to sell the track at $150 an acre less than was con- tracted for it a year ago, or in other words, at $350 an acre. = The second was from Claus Seevers, to lease said association 114 acres on West Dodge street, across the Papplo, at $1,200 per year for ten years, and at the end of ten years to sell the same to the associa- tion at an appraised value, to be not less than $275 per acre. The third was from Alfred B. DeLong, 110 or 120 acres in East Omaha, on a five year lease, rent free, asso- clation to pay all taxes, extend lease at the end of five years on a rental of 6 per cent of the valuation of the ground, valuation to be determined by arbitration. In this event the Omaha Bridge and Terminal company will extend its tracks, making it possible for all roads entering Omaha or Council Bluffs to deliver passengers at the grounds. Proposed articles of incorporation were then read by Secretary Utt, authorizing capital stock to the amount of $100,000, divided into shares of $100 each, payable as called for by the board of directors, existence to begin January 1, and the highest amount of Indebt- edness to which sald corporation should at any time subject itself to not exceed two-thirds of its capital stock. These questions brought out much discus- sion, all of which had been thoroughly ex- pressed at the meeting a week ago, vet it was not until well along in the shank of the even- ing that Mr. Hicks offered a resolution that the present meeting be authorized to open a subscription list for moneys with which to make the proposed enterprise a certainty, and that at an early date the subscribers get to- gether and appoint a committee to select a site for the grounds, and that whatever selec- tion this committese made be unanimously ratified by the subscribers. RACE TRACK ANYHOW. Mr. Walsh offered an amendment that all subscriptions be taken with the proviso that the state fair be secured, which paved the way to another almost endless debate. The question being finally demanded, Mr. Walsh's amendment was voted down, and Mr. Hicks' original motion put through with a whoop. This advancement made, H. A. McCord made a motica that the committee embodied in’ Mr. Hickmotion b Mstructed (o meet the officers of the West Side Driving Park association and the property owners of the site, with Instructions to come to an agreement upon these grounds, and that the sald parties men- tioned herein meet at the Commercial club rooms for conference at noon today. On motion of Mr. Paxton the chair was authorized to appoint a number of subscrip- tion soliciting committees, in order that all lines of business might be properly waited on, also that the original committee appointed to consult with the rallroad and street rail- way companies be instructed to wait on the street rallway company and get a written proposition from It in regard to what it would do toward extending its lines to the west side grounds. This done, an adjournment, was taken until Monday evening next, when the various com- mittees will report on the progress made in their respective assignments. DUMPED ON THE SMITH HORSE.

CHICAGO, Dec. 4.—Ives defeated Schaeffer again tonight, winning over him in hollow fashion. Schaeffer could only make 206 while Ives was piling up his 600. Schaeffer attributed his defeat to the condition of the balls, and there seemed to be some founda- tion for the charges, as the {vories cer- tainly rolled very badly for Schaeffer. He appealed to Ives to change the set, but the latter refused. lves' largest runs were 167, 120 and 8. Schaeffer's largest runs were 47, 36 and 34. A, J. Levy, the backer of Frank Ives, offers to wager anywhere from $1.000 to $10,000 that Ives can defeat any billiard player in America, bar Jacob Scha f- fer, conceding the odds of 1,500 in 6,000 at the fourteen-inch balk line game. This offer is the outcome of a charge made by local sporting men that the billiard match is a “Job. Following is the score for tonight: Ives—39, 30, 2, 62, #, 68, 6, 167, 0, 81, 30, 6, 129, 1—600.

She was a young woman of 29 who had built up a good busi- ness and was reputed to be worth $10,000. At 11 o'clock last night her body was found in the middle of a country road leading into the city by William Erhart, a Soo baggageman. It was still warm, but life was extinct. There was a bullet hole directly through the head. her nose was mashed and broken and there was a long, jagged cut in her upper lip. The police believe they are close on the heels of the man who committed the murder and they developed the following facts: Miss Gang had formed an intimate acquaintance with a certatn St. Paul man, whose name i3 known to the police, and who is a gambler. Her meetings with him were clandestine and were concealed from her friends. Some- times she went to St. Paul and met him at some restaurant and at other times she hired a livery rig in the evening, and picking him up somewhere drove with him. - On these occasions she went out and returned alone. The man was accustomed to send notes to her, and the A. D. T. boy who carried most of them has been found. He sent her a note which she tore up on reading. In the evening she hired a rig as usual, and went out alone. Two hours Iater the horse returned to the barn with the empty buggy. The cushions were soaked with blood and brains. The police believe that she went out driving with the St. Paul gambler, that they quarreled, and that he shot her. It Is thought that the shot was not instantly fatal, and that he must have beaten her face with the butt of the re- volver, taken her out of the carriage, and left her body on the road, driving back to town and, abandoning the horse, fied. The motive of the deed is thought to have beer robbery, as she is known to have had a large sum of ready cash, or it may have been the result of a lovers' quarrel. Haladh i, Her Dose Did Not Prove Fatal. Mrs, Franklin was found at an early hour this morning behing the counter of the eat- ing house at 1120 Dodge, kept by herself and husband, unconscious from the effects of laudanum. She was taken to the station and restored to earth. In answer to a query as to the cause her anxlety to go beyond she re ery heart has sorrows of its own Family trouble is what the police assign as the reason. 8 BEFORE o I’l‘fl“l:’;"u'md dld me o ;::&.Dh"'fl finger ¥ nalls came off, and batr » il oo o and bl ekie out feat T .
