Ricbard Perlin is Bound Over by County Judge Vinsonhaler, JEALOUSY OF GAMESTERS A PUBLIC BOON | Ceurt Bxpresses Satiafaction in the | Ing Out Among Knigh | ot Richard Berlin of South Omaha was bound over to the district court on the charge of keeping a gambling house at yes terday’s session of the county court. H: ball was placed at $500. Jullus Berstrom became surety for the sum. In giving tho decision finding In the evidence presumab cause of Berlin's gullt, Judge Viog took occasion to say he glad the South Omaha gamblers had fallen out among themselves and had begun to prosecute one another. He sald: “Iu view of au stat ment of the county attorney not long ago, to the effect that gambiers of South Omaha | have formed a trust to ensure greater and | exclusive profits, it eeoms to be & blessing that they have falien out with one | another. “The attorneys for the defente complain that Sherman and Jorgeson, who are ad- mittedly bebind the prosecution in the case, have singled out Derlin alone to press charges against. It these men have se- lected Berlin to wield the cudgel on it seems to be a pretty good thing for the public It will be better still it these men continue to disagree among thomselves to the extent not ouly of breaking the trust, but of breaking themselves. It Sherman and Jorgeson will prosecute Berlin and se- cure a conviction, then Ket after some of the other gamblers, secure convictions and then complain against each other they will furnish the courts with a good deal of evi- dence that It seems we aro unable to obtain in any other way. I have found from the evidence in (his case that thero is presuma- | bla cause of Berlin's gullt, so I will bind Eim over to the district court, placing the bonds at $00, the eame amount fn which he was held to appear here." Teatimony Ag st Herlin, Among others who testified agalnst Ber- o duriag the morning was Myron Sher- man of the firm of Sherman & Jorgeson, who udmitted that he 1s bebind the prosecu- tlon. His testimony was not different than that of several other witnesses, among them belng George Victor, an employe of €. B, Liver & Co., dealers in saleon sup- plies, and Albert Jorgeson, the second mem- ver of the firm mentioned. Victor sald that he sold chips to be used in the gambling operations to Berlin on a number of occa- slons. Jorgeson said he was in the gam- bling rooms several times when games wera belng played, and had even taken a hand in them. When it came to the arguments of the attorneys thoso who represented Ber- 1in emphasized the contention that although 1t had been proved gambling had been car- ried on in the building where Berlin's sa loon Is, there had been no proot that Ber- lin was actually the proprietor. FIGG NOW SEES NEW LIGHT Leader of Strange Cult Has T spiration to Make Dete: Case Now Concluded. The latest command which Lewis R. Figg of Gretna asserts he has recelved from heaven will cause the courts of Sarpy county a vast amount of trouble. served the court with notice that & biddiog long withheld by the Lord has fislly beea delivered and in consequence he is mow ready, with the permission of heaven, to be heard in a case that settied at the last term of court. Figg's latest ides of the divine guldance will necessitate a re- hearing in the case it he can persuade th court to rule favorably on his motion to uside the former judgment. The case (s one growing out of the tar and feathering escapade that took place, with Figg In & leading role, several months ago. Figg had John R. Woods arrested for com- plicity n tho proceeding, but the court be- foro which the evidenco was brought al- lowed Woods' release. Woods then brought sult agalnst Figg to recover $2,500 damages because of false impriconment. The case came up before Judge Slabaugh. Figg was summoned to appear before the bench, but ho told the ceurt that he had been given a command by the Lord not to make any de- tenso. would postpone the hearing for.three days to give Figg time to got a new command and as there was no new developments when tho days of grace were up, his honor heard the testimony of the plaintift and awarded judgment against Figg in the sum of §500. Figg has now informed the court that the Lord appeared in a dream and told him to make a dofense In the case. For this pur- pose he has served notice that he will move for an order of the court setting aside the judgment awarding Woods $5600. Judge Slabaugh will go to Sarpy county to hold court Monday.

The frontleplece of the Thanks- giving number of The Illustrated Bee was really a work of art. It represented what purported to be the first Thanksgiving In Ame fen, in 5, when Governor Brad ford sent out four young men to kill some wild turkeys for n sort of Thanksgiving feast. Louis i Bostwick, The Bee's photographic artist, originated the idea of the pleture. He took four of The Bee carriers, dressed them in colonial costume, supplied by Liebe, the costumer, and equipped them with blunderbusses obtained from Lininger's art gallery. Then buy- ing four turkeys from a commis- sion house he took the boys to the outskirts of the city and posed them with the game.

Simpson from taking pos- session of a dwelling where his wite had hidden from him, and nothing in all his fur- niture and chattels. Mrs. Simpson com- menced suit for a divorce a few weeks ago. The day the papers were placed on file with the district clerk she abandoned her home in Eouth Omaba and went to live at 1314 Chicago street. She remained in hiding because of & fear that her husband would execute former threats to maltreat her. Simpson discovered where his wife had hidden and visited the place prepared to take up his abodé there. He announced his intention to move his furniture into the house and make his home with Mrs. Simp- #on whether she wished him to or not. To prevent such a step Julige Dickinson issued a restraining order preventing Simpsoa from visiting the premises where Mrs. Simpson is living, pending a decree of the court in the divorce suit. oN ‘Woman Steps the Wrong Wi The feminine custom of stepping off & treet car backwards may be the cause of Pearl M.

In the matter of the estata of Elizabeth o Kotntee, Toher Yo eaite of Bitzabeth | "In regard to the adoption of a system of order releasing Herman and Augustus Kountze and F. H. Davis as executors. the opinion is held by well informed railroad men that plans more feasible than those already suggested must be presentod. The trouble in disposing of the matter isfactorily seems to be the irreconcilable difference between the interests of roads with large mileage, spreading out over the entire transmissourl territory, and those with limited mileage, tapping only a small territory. The iuterests of the former would be served by baving no interchamge whatever, while the latter are anxious for the freest possible excharge. The strong roads want the old mileage book form of ticket adopted; the weaker ones insist upon the interchangeable cer- tificate form now in use in western and southwestern territory, which does not re- quire the user to expend In the first in- stance any considerable amount, such as would be Involved in the purchase of a 3,000 or 6,000-mile ticket. The Reck Island and the Missouri Pacific have ex- changed business on their roads between Missour! river points and Denver for some time and it {8 this action on their part that has forced consideration of the ques tion by other roads.

Ushing classes of this kind these mothers and homemakcrs, several of whom have been teachers in the schools, belleve the city will find not only an answer to this question, but the solution of ome of the most grave problems of the day as well, Tho necessity of such classes is espe- clally recognized by the principal teachers, who find that in all schools there s a certain per cent of boys and girls who fall behind and finally drop out, because they have not the mental capacity to keep up In the studies from the sixth, seventh and eighth grades on. Many of these boys bave mechanickl ingenuity, which, If de- veloped and trained and combined with their other education, would make useful and honest citizens of them, It 1s the same with the girls. Beginning working &t a pittance in stores, shops or at anything an inexperienced girl can do, they drift on and flually into homes of thelr own, utterly ignorant of the first principles of homemaking. In a properly conducted class of domestic sclence these girls would soon learn that it s not the work that degrades the girl, but the girl that degrades the work, and once realizing the real dignity of true housekeeping thoy will go on to & higher and more complote education in this line, and the homes of the future and their products will have had secured to them that principle which no other Influence can eradlcate. As it 1s, these boys and girls, with tite meny others that leave school for varlous reasons, do nothing, or worse, and drift on into conditions that become a far greater source of expense to the city than these industrial classes would be, and it 1s the bellef of these women that in classes of this kind Omaba will find the “ounce of prevention” that will be worth the “pound of cure.'
