Carnes of Cantcn, O., who made such earnest appeals to the county commis- sioners for transportalion east, lies at the Methodist hospital in 4 precarious condition, suffering from heart disease. Yesterday morn- ing at 8 o'clock he stcpped in the blacksmith shop at 1319 Harney street and asked the proprietor, Dennis Cunaingham, for a drink of water. Before it could be given him he fell over like a dead man. The attendants tried every available means to revive him, but without suceess The police patrol was called and the unfor- tunate vietim of unfortunate circumstances was taken to the hospital, Carnes stated to the police that the county commissioners had given his wife and chii- dren transportation to Canton, but refused him on the statement of his mother, Mrs. Dakin, who said he was a worthless vagabond. The commissioners said they would give him employment, working on repairs in the drain pipes surrounding the county Jail. Carnes was physically unable to do hard manual labor, being in a half-starved condi- tion and weak from exposure and worn out from tramps locking for employment, Ordered the Sidewnlk. The Board of Public Works has taken the preliminary steps toward reconstructing the sidewalk at the nartheast corner of Fifteenth and Farnam streets, in accordance with pre- vious action. The secretary of the board has been directed to advertise for bids on filling up the area and when that is accomplished new sidewalks will be laid of four-inch In- diana stone. Thls program may not be car- rled out, hawever, as it is expected that the owners of the property will apply for an - junction to restrain the board from acting on the ground that they expect to put up a new building and that to construct a sidewalk now would be a useless expense. e Cancelling the City Debts. A part of the proceeds of the recent bond sales have been recelved by City Treasurer Dumont and is being applied toward taking up the registered 7 per cent warrants which remain outstanding. The money was tele- graphed at the request of Mr. Dumont, who was anxlous to get the warrants out of the way as rapidly as possible. The receipts of taxes are light at this time. This is because property owners prefer to wait until near the end of the month, as the interest is the same whether the taxes are paid then or now, and they have the use of their money for a couple of weeks longer.

Scott of the crim- inal division of the district court imposed a sentence and a threat upon Attorney Beck- ett, charged with contempt of court. The sentence was that Mr. Beckett pay a fine of $100 and costs, and the threat was that the court would order disbarment proceedings commenced against him if he did not pub- licly apologize to the court on or before the opening day of the September term. When the court convened at 10 o'clock yesterday. Judge Scott announced that he was going to formally adjourn court after passing upon the case of contempt against Attorney Beckett, and would hear any mate ters that were ready for consideration, Sev- eral cases were called up on motions, and the audience that had gathered to see the fun was kept in waiting until 11 o'clock. H. J. Davis, appearing for Mr. Beckett, asked leave, in order to make a record, to offer for the defense, “I will not accept your offe 5 said the court. “There is no that au- thorizes the taking of testimony when the contempt was committed in the presence of the court, I will not allow you to stuff this case simply for the purpose of stuffing it.” Mr. Davis then offered affidavits of parties who were in the room when the trouble oc- curred. I won't listen to them,” said the court won't low attorneys to decide whether or not a court was ineulted when the offense was committed in the presence of the cour The court is the sole judge in such ses, The court then took up the statement of Mr. Beckett, made in his defense before the court last Tuesday morning. He suid that no attorney had a right to do things that looked like an asgault, and that Mr. Beckett's statement that he intended no assauit on she court would not hold. The court had ordered Mr. Beckett to leave the room, and had ordered the bailiff to put him out. Mr. Beckett claimed that he had been wrong. fully assaulted by the bailiff. If that were true he had been assaulted by the court, the bailiff was only obeying the court's orders. The court said that Mr. Beckett's alleged apology had only added insult to injury. He said there were some matters bearing upon is mind that were very aggravating, but he would not speak of them, as he had been requested not to do the defendant “The finding of 2id the judge, “is that Mr of very gross contempt. The judgment of the court that he be fined $100 and costs of this prose- cution and be confined in the jail of the county until the fine is paid. I will suspend the execution of the sentence until the first day of the next term of court, and unless the defendant gets down off. his high horse and publicly apologizes to this court by that time I will order disbarment proceedings com- menced against him.” Mr. Davis offered a motion for a new trial, which was promptly and emphatically over- ruled. Then he offered a bill of exceptions, which the court refused to even look at until the first day of the next term of court. Mr. Beckett was released upon his own recognizance until the date fixed for the execution of the sentence of the court. Apology STARVI crm Comptroller Olsen Refuses to Honor Orders for Hay and Oats. The horses of the police patrol department had short rations yesterday, and if they could be understood it is not unlikely that they would express their dissatisfaction with the action of the city council, which compelled their partial starvation. Soon after the council declared by resolu- tion that it would not officially recognize the Board of Fire and Police Commissioners Comptroller Olsen refused to approve the req- uisitions of the board for feed and sup- plies for the fire and police departments. He notifled the council of his action and it was approved. Then several members inquired if it was the policy of the council to starve the horses in order to spite the board and the majority of the members extricated them- selves from a rather embarrassing position by referring the matter to the finance commit- tee. At that time it was stated that the com- mifteo would be expected to see that the hdtses were fed and that without recognizing the Board of Fire and Police Commissloners. “ Under this action Fire Chief Redell was di- rected by the committee to purchase feed on the open market for his department until other arrangements were made. But the pa- trol horses were not taken into considera- tion and yesterday morning the supply of oats and hay in the police stables ran short. Notwithstanding the fact that the horses had fothing to eat, the comptroller still refused to-honor a requisition and the finance com- mittee seemed to have forgotten that there was such a department on earthe Finally the board issued orders to Captain Mostyn o go ahead and buy a sopply of feed and take cliunces on getting it paid for, and this was one. HORS —_—— DATE FOR MOORES' HEARING, Charges Agninst Him to He ered Sep r 0. At their regular meeting yesterday after- noon the county commissioners set Tues- day, September 9, at 9 a. m. as the time for hearing the charges filed against Frank E. Moores, the clerk of the district court, accused of malfeasance in office. Each side will have one day in which to present its case, and the time allowed for argument was not limited. G. P. Clements resigned as nurse at the county hospital. The board placed his res- ignation on file and voted to discharge him. It appears that Clements agreed to work at the hospital for a year, and then resigned when he got a better position. The charges against Justice Levy, accused of having accepted a worthless bond in a case at South Omaha, was set for hearing on_Tuesday, September The board voted an appropriation of $50 toward defraying the expenses of the teach- ers' institute, which will be held at the High school bullding next week. The board adjourned until 9 o'elock Wednesday morning, when the claims of Contractor Van Court for the paving of Center street will be considered.

Fidelity Trust Co, CLAIMS HER FAPHER' Jessle Sherwood Will Oppose Pro- posed Settlement of an Estate. Miss Jessle Sherwoad, living at 321% North Fifteenth street, makes serious charges against her uncle and aunt, Mr. and Mrs. W. H. Kelley of 1104 Fifty-first street, and the matter in debte I8 to go into the courts before long. Jessie Sherwood was the only daughter of J. D. Sherwood, who died at the residence of his sister, Mrs. Kelley, on August 9. He left considerable property, which will likely be the cause of a legal battle. The following is what the young woman says: My father dfed and I was never notified of his critical fliness and probably would never have been informed had not I been located by a detective who looked me up at the solicitation of the Odd Fellows, an or- der my father had been fidentified with for many years. I was grieved and shocked to think that my relatives had ignored me, the only child, ir this way. Rumors reached me that he had not died a natural death, and I went about to make arrangements to have the body exhumed, but after consulting with Dr. Gifford and Chief of Police White I was convinced that death was due to natural uses. Father had been suffering from can- cer for a long time, and during the past five years had made his home with my aunt. We ne were friends and [ was with them but litde. Most of my life has been spent In convents and a year ago last June 1 graduated from St. Michael's convent in New York, 1 remained in that city with friends until last March, when I returned to Omaha, and came to see my father. I was not well received by my relatives, and went to Council Bluffs with friends. ' 1 am given to understand that my aunt had a contract with father to take care of him for some years at $20 per week. If this contract is valid, T will receive nothing from the $5,000 or $6,000 that was left by him. Father had two good farms of act in Custer county, this stat and personal property besid Yesterda the chief of police detailed Dotectives Savage and Dempsey to go with me to Kelley's to get the pr papers of my deceased father, and the deeds of the two farms. We were refused, ar 1 will retain a lawyer to look after my interests, “I have not had the since 1 was a little girl, we lived in Arnold, Neb., with foreman and took me with her, was granted a divorce, and I was given into his custody. I have been with but little during the past five years.' 'he girl's uncle, Mr. H. W. Kelley, say herwood and I, besides being brothers in-law, were old army comrades, and alway: had been the most intimate of friends Jes: had been a wild, wilful, manageable girl ever s'nce she was 13 years of age, when she was sent to the state reformatory “v her father, when he resided at Arncld, Neb. Ir 1890 he became very 1l and underwent an operation and requested that his daughter Jessie be sent for. My son and I circulated a petition and In two weeks presented the paper to the governor, who pardoned her. She was a heartless young thing and gave her invalid parent no comfort. Rev. Johnson, Episcopal clergyman, became intere the incorrigible Jessie and made of his family and in 1891 sent he Michael's convent in New York. She left that institution a year ago and last spring called to see her father. His prayers and entreatics for her to become a member of our family had no influence and she has called but a few times since, Six weeks ago she sent for her trunk and the expressman said she was going to Chicago and that is the reason she was not looked up and noti- fied of her father's condition and his subse- quent death. We had a contract with the deceased to take care of him at $20 per week and have filed our bill with the ad- ministrators at Broken Bow, in Custer county.” Jessie Sherwood Is a remarkably Interest- ing young woman, 20 years of age, and has pretenses to good looks. Kelley has been in Union Pacific rail as a switchman for sixteen years and has a first class char- acter in the neighborhood where he resides. g o MUNICIPAL POSITION, MONEY. care of a mother Years ago, when my mother eloped the employ of the Influence It Will Strive to Exert City Afinirs, At a meeting of the Municipal league, held Friday evening, the following resolution, set- ting forth the ébjects and purposes of the league, was adopted, and the secretary in- structed to furnish copies of the same to the local press for publicatios Resolved, By the executive committee of the Mun league of Omaha, that thi following statement of its positio poses is hereby unanimously adop ing first been submitted to regular meet- ing of the central council of said league, and having received the unanimous ap: proval of said meeting: The league has no alliance or connection whatever with any existing political organiza- tion or movement, but will judge all such organizations or movements by the character of candidates placed in nomination The Municlpal league was organized for the purpose of furnishing an independent non- partizan and nonsectarian force in favor of better local government, and will adhere to that purpose, During the coming campaign the league will use its efforts to secure, as far as possible, the nomination of honest and efficient candi- dates by each and every party or movement. When the nominations are made the league will investigate their character and will sub- mit to its members and to the public an en- dorsement of such of said candidates without regard to party as possess personal record and qualifications entitling them to the con- fidence of the people and will recommend the defeat of all others. The Municipal league of Omaha is a perma- nent organization, and will prosecute its work steadily along the following line 1. It will work actively to prevent the elec- tion or appointment to our local cflices of such men as are dishonest, ineflicient or lacking in fidelity to the public interests. 2.1t will insist upon a lawful, economical an honest administration of our lceal govern- ment, and will actively resist the illegal or wasteful expenditure of public funds. 3. It will enter upon a movement of inves- tigation and education for the purpose of awakening citizens to the need of a better city charter, and the desirability of establish- ing a civil service or merit system, to apply to all city employes. 4. It will from tinie to time take up such special lines of work as may conduce to the advantage and welfarelof the community, All communications to the league should be addressed in care of Jay Burns, secretary, 1404 Farnam street, EACH WAITING FOR THE OTHER. Court and Council ing Of in Water Works hnprovements. The order to the recelvers of the American Water Works company to expend the pro- ceeds of the $85,000 claim which has now be:n approved by the city coumcil in the extension of the present main system has not yet been issued by Judge Dundy. Neither has the council appropriated the amount It is asserted that the situation has reached a point where nelther party s willing to take the step for fear the other will back out. It is stated that Judge Dundy has in- timated that the order to the receivers will not be isseud until ‘the claim has been in- cluded in the counelk appropriation ordinance and the money placed where the receivers can reach it. His position is said to be that it the order was issued the mayor might veto the payment, and the council might not be able to pass it over hig veto. On the other hand, several members of the city councll have taken the ground that they were ready to approve the claim, but not until the order of the court has been issued and the receivers of the water works com- pany have filed a written agreement that they would go ahead and expend the money as designated by the recommendations of City Engineer Rosewater. Consequently the whole arrangement Is still hanging fire. —_— Forest Lodge Mukes an Answer, Mr. H. Rothholz of Forest lodge No. 84, Knights of Pythias, denies the charges made against his lodge in the suit filed in the dis- trict court by the Knights of Pythias grand lodge. He -says that the membe of the lodge did not allow the use of beer or liquors in the lodge hall, and that the funds which the lodge has refused to turn over to the grand lodge are needed for the sick fund of Forest lodge.

ILks New FOLDING BEDS The effect most desired in a Folding Be 1s that it slall be anything but a bed b day and nothing but a bed by night. Step by step we have improved it at botl these points, and the Folding Bed as now perfected is a triumph of ingenuity. By night it 1s a full fashioned, luxurioug bed with not the slightest suggesiion of the “cabined, cribbed, confined’” berth above ik The sides are open their entire length, and the bed could not be detected from a rogue lar bedstead. Furthermore, in this bed t is a perfect system of ventilation througl out the day, and this removes e last por sible objection to a folding bed In the day timé when this bed is “madg up,” its owner would not be able to recogs nize it. Buy no folding bed of any make until yo have personally examined our beds, Prio from $10 to $50. CHAS.SHIVERICE & CO, Furuiture and Draperies. 12th and Douglas Strectse
