See the electric dis- e, men’s, and Considered that Thero 18 No Case Against Frani Van Voorhls. The county attorney has dismissed the case against Frank Van Voorhis of Chicago, an adjuster for several insurance companies that were losers In the Consolidated Coffee company’s fire. The case was commenced at the instance of State Auditor Moore, who charged Van Voorhis with being the agent of Insurance companies which had failed to comply with the state law requiring com- panies doing business in Nebraska to s cure a certificate frgm the auditor and fur- nish a statement of business every six months. ‘It was proposed to make a test case of the matter in hand, but Wednesday it was discovered that Van Voorh's was not an agent of any of the companies against which the auditor has a complaint. He is an insurance broker and was hired by the companies in question to adjust the losses in Omaha at the one fire. The attorney did not think he could make a case against Van Voorhis and reccmmended his dismissal It also appears that some of the other insurance companies opposed the prosecution of Van Veorhis for fear that the matter of the loss on the building might become involved in litigation to the detriment of all the com- panies concerned, Al Stleks to the Story. Sam Payne will be taken to the penitentiary In a few days to enter upon the life sentence imposed upon him for the murder of Maud Rubel. County Attorney Kaley called upon Payne yesterday and together they went over the details of the tragedy again. Payne insisted that the story he fold upon the wit- ness stand was correct and that he never saw the girl until he was taken to the Me- Hugh building and shown her dead body by De. Brown. The identfication of Maud Rubel, Mr. Kaley says, was very complete when the body was disinterred for removal to Towa a few days ago, and he does not anticipate that any great effort will be made to secure a new trial for Payne in the supreme court. J n8 n High Koller, Anna Hansen wants a divorce from her husband, John. In her petition, filed in the district court, Mrs. Hansen alleges that she was led to the altar as a blushing bride in January, 1 and that since that time she has been pretty busily engaged in dodging chairs and other articles of furniture which her husband delights in throwing at her. There is also a charge of adultery and high living made against her husband, — NORTON TO THE TEACHERS, President of the Nebraska Normal School Tulks to Omaha Educators. Yesterday efte'noon Prof. Norton, president of the Nebraska Normal college, spoke to the teachers of the city at the High school. The subject of his talk was “‘Interest.” Man, sald the professor, 1s a soclal animal, and he secks society not only because he Is gregarious, but because he must depend on mankind to supply his needs. Man ebtams very few, if any, of the necessities of life di- rectly. He has 'a greater train of servitors than a rrince of the feudal times. Mentally, he blesses others with his thoughts erystal: Ized in language and is blessed with the thoughts of others. And in the highest sense, the spiritual, the mutual help is the greatest. Mankind 1is divided into two classes, the helpers and the nonhelpers, or the obstru tlonists, It is the duty of a teacher to de- velop the children placed under his care Into the helping class. They do not go to sehool primarily to obtain knowledge, but to bave the altrulsm that is in their natures brought out. The work of the teacher then I8 not to impart the knowledge, but to dis- sover an interest that will make the pupil seek for the knowledge himself. This bond of Interest, this bond that conneets the pupil with his study, will glve him determination and the power of attention and of digesting vhat he learns. Although this theory seems /slonary, it has been practiced in the past nd can’be in the future. The professor spoke at length on the in- ‘erest in study that should be {nstilled in the upil. ~ He baid that he was only a co- worker with the teachers, who usually had algh ideas of thelr profession, and that he had spoken to give them some new thoughts and hoped to obtain some from them. e ———— t Notes Three Council Blufts firms, Reevds & Son, W. & O.

Benefit Performanco at ths Boyd Last Night an Artistic Success, An undeservedly slender house greeted the production of “Virginius” at the hands of Omaha’s amateurs at Boyd's last evening The performance was for the benefit of the Assoclated Charities and under the auspices of Nebraska lodge No. 1, Knights of Pythia with J. Edgar Owens in the title role. The stage settings and costuming were good, and the efforts of a majority of the cast far above mediocrity. Mr. Owens was strongest in the stronger parts, and in the culminating tragedy evinced much appre tion of the trying duti with which he was taxed, and gave a_sample of vigorous and realistic ac ing. The Aplus Claudius of Lafayette Andorson_was somewhat striking, while Messrs, Kinsler, Daily, Porter, Thompson, and in’ fact the 'entire cast, acquitted them: selves In a highly creditable way. As Vir- ginfa, Miss Minnie Smith deported herself with ‘true ability, and in voice and manner wa smbodiment of this historic Roman daughte Mrs. John H. Driscoll made a capital Ser and Miss Goodsell lacked but little in her effective impersona- tion of the female slave. As a whole, t perfarmance was devoid of much of the me- chanical stiffness which usually mark such attempts, and may, without undue extray- agance, be denominated as a most agreeable success. Too much praise cannot be accorded Mr. Owens, under whose able direction the production ‘was given. His pupils had been well drilled and gave evidence of the mould- ing of a master hand.

The On Munlicipal League Discusses Changes Pro- posed by Revision Committee. Councilman Burkley and Mr. A. P. Tukey as a committee from the charter revision committee met with a delegation of the Mu- nicipal leaguers in the Commecreial club rooms last night to discuss the proposed amendments to the city charter, Mr. Tukey described what had been done in the way of suggesting changes in the charter, Mr. Kountze remarked .that he thought that the bonded indebtednss should be lim- ited to 2% per cent on a basis of a valu- ation of $100,000,000. He thought that the time allotted for the commissioner's deputies to perform their work, two months, would not be sufficient to maks a careful estimate of the values, and wanted it £o that the tax commissioner would put in his whole time investigating new improvements and in- creased values of property. He suggested that by the proposed plan an incompetent man might be apppointed to this office, and with a force of incompetent deputies would be no improvement over the present un isfactory manner of making assessments. The Tecommendation to extend the clty limits from twenty-five to thirty miles was discussed, and met with opposition b:cause of the fact that it would increase the fire and police limits to such an extent as to impair the usefulness of these departments, Mr. Tukey explained that th> idea of the charter committee was that this would be a good move to take in Florence, in case the city ever obtained control of the water works, The amendment to not grant any fran- chises for more than two years without a vote of the people was unanimously endorsed, as was also the cne reducing the Board of Health to the mayor, chief of polige and city physician, and having th= inspection done by uniformed policemen, thus doing away with the expense of a lot of inspeciors. Mr. Millard red a resolution to the effect that the paving question be left as it Is and that the city limits be not extended, but after some discussion it was withdrawn Mr. Tukey said that the charter committee, council and members-clect of the leglslaturs would probably hold their final meeting next Thursday night and discuss all of the amend- ments, which would be printed by that time. President Doane of th: Municipal league suggested that it would be a good plan for the league to meet next Wednesday evening. when it could secure drafts of th> proposed amendments and have a chance to discuss them and make known its wishes in the matter before the final meeting of the char- ter committee could be held. w.
