Started oft with the cordial enthusiasm of the less fortunate ones who were to remain at home, the spirits of the women were high and in spite of the fatigue and discomforts in- cident to a long journey the party reached Leave Omaha Aftet Havi fally Prosecuted Several Poache: The game warden, George Simpkios of Lincoln, and his deputy, George Carter of North Platte, closed a successful engage- ment in Omaha Saturday and left behind them a number of people who will have a little more respect for the laws of the state made for the protection of fish and game. The wardens came to the city on sure information They arrived Wednesday evening and that night on Cut-Off lake made the most Important arrest of the year, when they captured “Sleepy” Hewett and Frank Burwell In the act of seining. Tom Jones was the third man in the party, but he jumped into & skiff and made good his escape at that time. The next morn- ing at 11 o'clock Jones was under arrest, having been captured at the lake. On the visit to the lake for Jones the officers made the first arrest of the year for fllegal shooting. The parties taken in charge on this occasion were Joseph Snyder and T. C. Coots. They had beem shooting yellow' legged snipe and when ar- its destination but little the worse for wear and still anxious to remain together in the convention city Reaching Kansas City Friday morning, the delegation scattered in partles of two and three to spend the morning sight- seelng, returning at noon to make the ac- quaintance of the delegations from Min- pesota, Jowa and South Dakota, which united there to make up the train. The entire party numbered 124, almost all of which were club women, the few men being club husbands or sons, and before evening the train had been thoroughly canvassed, old acqualntances renewed, new ones made, and all on board unite] as a great house-party, delegation names being dropped entirely, only as used to designate the various care The announcement on Friday afternoon that the side trip to the old town of Santa Fo had been cut out occasioned genuine disappointment to all and not a little in- dignation among many who had been In- fluenced to take the Santa Fe route for the benefit of the side trips that the through rate included. The elimination was explained by an official as necessary owing to the many sections in which the trains were being run, but upon protest of the party which had bought tickets with the understanding that the Santa Fe trip included the company offered to take them there if they would bear the ex- pense of the Pullman cars. The women felt unable to meet this, however, and were obliged to forget thelr disappoint- went In the pleasure of thelr own company. This they readily did and being & re- scourceful lot sufficlent entertainment was orovided to make up for ths lack of in- teresting sights enroute, upon which the ordinary traveler 1s dependent. The wedding anniversary of one of the women furnished occasion for a celebration that displayed vaudeville talent wholly un- suspected in the ordinarly dignified club women, the program concluding with a epeech by Mr. Nathan Wilson of Strombs- burg, Neb., who spoke in behalt of the “Auxiliary” in which the men on the train bad organized themselves. Reaching Las Vegas, N. M., at 8 p. m. Baturday, the entire party visited the Hot Springs and baths, devoting an hour to sight-seeing by electric light, which, if not @s profitable as a daylight visit, was almost as enjoyable and resulted in but one mem- ber of the party being left behind. Sunday was a quiet day, song or gospel services being conducted in each car, and as the 'ening was spent at Willia: Arin, the majority of the delegation at- tended church. Monday w: the red letter day of the entire trip and compensated for all other disappointments. Reaching the Grand Canyon early In the morning, the day was devoted to visiting the many points of in- terest. Some joined the pony train at 9 & m, going down the river seven miles below, and returning at sundown, while others made the various drives or ventured down the trail on foot. Here were met the Colorado and Pennsylvania delegations and many of the most prominent members of the General Federation of Woman's Clubs, the day affording opportunity for a general exchange of general federation go8s1p. The hospitality of the California women became manifest soon afier the party en. tered the state, and at every station the train was met by women with baskets and bunches of flowers. At San Bernardino the party was met by members of the Hostess club, one of which was Mrs. George W. Purcell, also of the Omaha Woman's club, who extended the club wel- come and gave instruction. Reaching Los Angeles late in the even- ing, the delegation was met by a local committee, who escorted them to Nebraska headquarters at Abbotsford Inm, located half & block from the convention audl- torium. ‘The journey was especially free from cau- cusing, but the arrival of the delegation ‘was welcomed by representatives from the middle west, who value their judgment in the formulation of some plan that may harmonize the Massachusetts and Georgla factions.

Befo: Justice Foster they pleaded gulilty and teceived a fine of $20 and costs, which they pald. “'Sleepy’ Hewett worked his rabbit foot on the lowa officers, as he was taken to Council Bluffs for trial. When arraigned he offered to plead gullty If assured that he would be given a comparatively light fine. It was arranged that he would be fined $10 and costa in consideration of the fact that he would pay. After the fine wi fixed he concluded to stay in jail sufficient time to square accounts with the state, so his term of service ended last night. A constable from Omaha was on hand to plck him up when he was released by the Towa authorities. Burwell was tried before Justice Foster yesterday afternoon. He received a sen- tence of thirty days In jail. On the stand he sald that the last work he had done was painting buildings at the exposition grounds and that he had made his living for the last six months catching trogs. The trial of Jones will take place next week. The fish car, which left 5,000,000 fish at Cut-Off lake last week, will start out in the state Monday. It will go from Lin- coln to Columbus, stopping Tuesday at Seward, where a number of the fry of the wall-eyed pike will be placed in the Blue river. At Columbus the same variety of fish will be planted in the Loup. Saturday a start will be made from Omaha over the Union Pacific to Sidney and fish will be distributed to parties who have made application for them to stock private lakes and ponds. Since the new law went Into effect the fish commission has recelved about $500 from the sale of young fish and fry. It is estimated by the commissioner that trom 50 to 65 per cent of the fry planted Boiler Explosion Buunl Work on Swift's New Hog House, CORONER'S VERDICT IN THE HAAS CASE Anclent Order of United Workmen Ao cepts Plans for New Building on Twenty-Fifth Street— Magic City Goss Investigation at the Swift plant shows that the boiler explosion of last Wednes- day did more damage than was at first sup- posed. The walls of the boiler house, which is an old building, are considerably damaged. This fact has been developed by the cleaning away of the debris. Three of the battery of four boilers are wrecks and will have to be substituted with new ones, Oo account of this accident it is under- stood that the work of rebuilding the en. tire hog house will be commenced before very long. Some five or six months ago engineers from Chicago spent several days in South Omaha staking out the ground and making sketches of plans for a new hog and fertilizer house. These plans, it is stated, were approved by the directors of the Swift company some time ago and something like $260,000 appropriated for the rebullding of this old portion of the plant. Mention was made in The Bee of the pla of the company at the time the enginee: were here. It was stated then that re- bullding was to commence about Jume 1. Now that a portion of the plant has been wrecked it is thought that the rebuilding of the entire old portion of the western section will commence as soon as material can be arranged for. On account of the new bollers just placed in service on the east side the hog house will not be ham- pered to any extent. The conmstruction at this time of so large a bullding would fur- nish employment to a great many men. It was reported yesterday that contracts for brick had already been made, or were being made at this time. Jury Returns Verdiet. Coroner Bralley held an inquest at Brew- er's undertaking rooms, Twenty-fitth and N streets, yesterday, over the remains of Andrew Haas. Quite a number of wite nesses were examined, among them being the train crews of the Rock Island and Northwestern roads, The testimony went to show that the Rock Island frelght No. 90 was cutting out a car of stock and had split the train. Haas, it appears, tried to pass between the cars when the two sec- tions were being brought together and was caught. The verdict was in accord- ance with the facts, merely that Hai met his death by being run over by Rock Island freight train No. 90. No comment or recommendations were made by the in the lakes will live, the deaths being due to change in the water and the depre- dations of larger fish. NEBRASKA AND MOUNT VERNON Report of Mrs. Manderson to the Re- gents of the Association, Soon to Meet. On Thursday the Board of Regents of the Mount Vernon Assoclation of the Unlon will meet at Mount Vernon in annual ses- slon and will epend about ten days in transacting its business. This is an soclation of women which has taken charge of the house and tomb of George Wash- ington, after having acquired title to it some years ago by paying $200,000 for the grounds and bulldings. The object of the assoclation is to maintain and preserve the historic spot. Mrs. Charles F. Man- derson is vice regent for Nebraska, and will make the following report.

The bullding committee of the Ancient Order of United Workmen lodges met Friday night and looked over plans for the proposed temple. Five architects submitted plans. Those presented by J. Kiewit, jr., were accepted by the committee. These plans call for a structure 50x80 feet, bullt of brick and two stories in helght. On the ground floor there will be an auditorfum, with a gallery on the Twenty-fifth street side. The seating capacity will be about 600. On the second floor there will be one large lodge room and a number of com- mittee rooms. Architect Kiewit estimates the cost of the building at $15,000. ‘Want District Enlarged. Some time ago a movement was set on foot to grade Twenty-Seventh street from B to F streets. At that time it was un- derstood that the property owners on Twenty-seventh street south of F street did not care to sign and so a small grading district was provided for. Since the orl, inal petition has been signed it appears that there is a desire to enlarge the dis- trict and take In Twenty-seventh street from A to J streets. A new petition Is to be circulated and it is expected that arrangements for the wdrk can be made by the council without any unnecessary delay. Barr St Jesse Barr, who is badly wanted by some of the members of the Taxpayers' league for moving mortgaged property out of the state, is still keeping under cover. He shipped his goods to St. Louls, Mo., but 8o far the police there have been unable to locate him. Chief Briggs is of the opinion that Barr is keeping under cover at the home of a relative not far from St. Louls and another message was sent the chief of detectives yesterday. The car containing the mortgaged property has not yet arrived at St. Louis, but it will be attached as soon as it reaches the rall- road yards. Misstionary M Wednesday afternoon the Woman's For- elgn Misstonary soclety of the First Meth- odist Episcopal church will give an eu- tertainment at the parsonage from 2 until 5 p. m.

JACKSONIAN CLUB MEETING Prospect of Happler Times for Local Democracy Appear In Signs. “Resolved, That a committee of three be appointed to investigate the acts of demo- cratic county commissioners in appointing republicans to office.” This little bombshell, launched in the midst of eeventy-five members of the Jack- sonlan club at its regular session last night, failed to explode,though it was propelled with all good jutentione by W. 8. Shoe- maker, and by G. F. Bergner, who seconded the motion to adopt the resolution. A sphinx-like silence on the part of the balance of the sssembly, however, met the proposition. There was no discussion and the matter was quickly tabled by an over- whelming vote, the sentiment being that it was the province of the county central committee to conduct such probings. Upon the unanimous passing of a resolu- tion to that effeet, W. H. Herdman, I J. Dunn and E. P. Berryman were appointed as a committee to draw up resolutions anent the death of J. Sterling Morton, to be pre- sented at the next meeting. No comment nor opposition was aroused, despite that fact that in 1896 Mr. Morton, together witb the other Cleveland democrats, was etricken from the membership list of the club as disloyal to the principles of Jackson, its in- spiration. Mr. Morton's portrait was alsu at that time taken from the walls of the ciubrooms. The action of the club last night is regarded as significant of the ac- tual existence of a strong sentiment looking toward the ultimate rewelding of these two party elements, which separated over the free silver question. This téndency hae already been indicated by the reception re- cently into the fold of a few of those so summarily ejected six years ago. Last night's discussion was on *‘Current Events.” and J. A. Ryan was leader. The beef trust came in for an unusual amount of attention, and most of those present Joined in tl chorus on this toplc. The Philippine question was also touched upon. In the absence of President Cosgrove, W. H. Kelliger of Auburn, Neb., presided. At the next meeting Dr. Hipple will lead an argu- ment on “le Free Colnage of Si able Under Present Conditions For a Weak Back.

The Country club abruptly ceased its hi- bernating Saturddy to place the links again under a browning sun, to dine in the cozy halls when evening had come and to dance in the later hours of a genial May night. It was wholly an auspicrous open- ing of the club's third season. W. J. Foye won a fresh hold on the Bid- well trophy for best score in 84, but sac- rificed to Jack Cudahy the Harry Cartan cup for handieap score, Cudahy finishing in 82. The playlng was against a stifft wind, which swept the links from south to north and buffeted balls in mid-alr just in time to drop them into yawning bazards or whisk them from their course. It was a day to test in every player both his skill and early plety. Those who visited the house and broad acres for the first time since the closing last fall found pleasing alterations in both. The bullding's interior has been redec- orated in the same color scheme as last year's, and for the 150 diners last night and the dancers later there was a profu- slon of flowers and paims, the latter to screen the ‘musicians who had been en- gaged for both the dinner and ball, Changes in Landscapes. But it was In the landscaping that change was most noticeable. The drives are all concreted now, but every other inch of ground is being made a Kentucky green with grase that cannot suffer of thirst since the Installation of a water supply. It has cost the club $5,000 to coax a maln from the city water works and distribute the supply through the grounds in a network of lateral veins buried eighteen inches under the surface, but the result recompenses, for now the whole grounds can be kept in that condition dear to the golfer's heart, with putting squares as verdant as a lawn for all thelr constant cropping. The fifteen old bunkers have all been thrown up to still more appalling heights and five new bunkers added, with other hazards, not, however, Including the one of water. The holes have been lengthened, but Chairman Harry Lawrie of the greens committee states that the bogey is reduced from 78 to 75 and that he expects so soon as the soaking beins to have effect that the club will be proud in the possession of abso- lutely perfect links. Yesterday's initial trial of the remodeled course suggested only one change and that was the moving up ten yards of the second tee, now too dangerous to play over a nelghboring bunker, Discouraging Day to Play. Nearly all the players of last year blos- somed again for this initial day of the new season, and tingled with pleasure as they felt each stroke bringing them back nearer to old form. The relentless wind and occasional momentary dashes of rain made driving crucial, lofting aggravating and putting precarious, but they weathered it llke seamen with no especially unkind remarks except when Foye's ball was blown 80 far into a patch of shrubbery that ft cost him three strokes; when Dick Kimball stalled on the eighteenth hole and lost the grip that he had secured on the Bidwell trophy, or when some similar catastrophe blasted a particularly promising future. With many it was pre-eminently a day for relaxation—and they relaxed. J. H. McIntosh forgot, for the hour, that there is or ever was any such thing as a tax case, a supreme court, a mandamus or even a city councilman, and strode from hole to hole In a jaunty cap and trousers that came no lower than the ones he wore at the age of 10. A. L. Reed examined real estate for once in his life without attempt- ing to estimate its value. Luther Drake honored but one draft (the strong one from his opponent’s scoring card. Dick Stewart frolicked about with none of that dignity presumed to mark the benedict, and Ed Peck took on a priming coat of tan without watching market quotations on the same. Men of large affairs and large frames ap- peared in small shirts and small trousers, and from 2:30 to 6:30 every soul was a stranger to his business self. Habitues of the old St. Andrew's course could have played the game with no better ambition than these. Result of the Matches. The result of the two matches, however, was something of an upset, as it had been anticipated by many that Dick Kimball would make his third and final winning for the Bidwell trophy for best score, which Foye annexed, and that Foye would ac- quire a lien on the Cartan cup for handi- cap, but of this he was robbed by Jack Cudahy's aggressive tactics that defled, the wind gods and beat them &t their own game. As promiscuously entered in the club's record the players made the follow~ ing showing, the three figures after each name representing the gross, the handicap and the net: Haskell .

Today at 4 o'clock there 1s a match at the Country club between Coach Fred Bartsch, recently from Mackinaw, and Coach W. C. Sherwood, whom the Fleld club has imported for the season.
