I do mot kmow just how the problem is to be solved, but it will adjust itself in time. Yes, there are thousands of sheep in the Big Horn country and they are damaging the ranges very perceptibly. We manage to keep the cattle ahead of them and thus do not suffer much as in the districts where the shesp get ahead of the cattle. Judge Haglett of Beatrice is an Omaha visitor on law business.

Last week, for example, letters came from Bingham- t:n, N. Y., Bowling Green, Ky. Mount Hermoa, Mass., Wabash, Ind, Lincoln, Neb., and Frand Forks, N.

NOW IT IS UP TO CENTRAL COMMITTEE Convention Gave it the Power to Fill Com- Meet Are to Tonight. Casey declared yesterday he would not accept the republican momination for tax commissioner. In speaking of the mat- ter before a number of frionds Sunday forencon and addressing a Bee reporter, Mr. Casey said: “It was only an hour be- fore the meeting of the convention when | T was apprised of the fact that I was to be nominated for tax commissioner. It Is true 1 was taken by surprise, but I told the committee that I did not care to break into polities.”” Continuing, Mr. Casey said he did not want the office and had made up his mind not to accept it. He Intends sending a formal notice to the chairman of the republican city central committee today notifying the committee of his withdrawal from the race. It will be up to the central committee now to fill vacancies, as the con- vention gave the committee the authority to do so. It was rumored on the streets last evening that Fritz Sandwall would decline to run for a member of the Board of Education, but no one seemed to know much about it. Mr. Sandwall was not in- clined to say whether he would be a candl- date or decline, There is to be a meeting of the new city central committee and the old committeo at the office of City Attorney Murdock this evening. At this meeting the affairs of the old committee will be turned over to those chosen Saturday. Probably when the mew committée organizes it will pro- ceed at once to fill any vacancles on the ticket. All the republican candidates are so well known that an introduction {s hardly needed. Both George Housman and James Philllps, nominated for councilmen from the Fifth and Sixth wards respectively, are well known employes of packing com- panies. For the Board of Education, R. C. Young, C. M. Rich and Fritz Sandwall have been nominated. Young is in the em- ploy of a packing house. Rich is a member of a local coal firm, while Sandwall owns one of the largest jewelry stores in the city. Since the refusal of Mr. Casey to accept the nomination for tax commissioner the republicans are casting about for a suita- ble candidate. John R. Schultz is being favored, but Mr. Schultz sald yesterday hs would not accept the position, as he in- tended spending the greater portion of the spring and summer on his farm at Arcadia As for the democratic nominees, J. J. Fitzgerald Eas served two years and evi- dently has been satisfactory to the demo- cratic party, eclse he would not have been renominated. It was expected that Brod- erick and Queenan would be renominated, although they asserted they would keep out of the convention. The democratic nominees for members of \he Board of Education are: E.

It took the hurdles like a bird, and the water jump didn’t seem to worry it at all. This was doubtless due to the ex- cellent spirits in which Robert Ryan, the good old miller, found himself after he had contemplated In private the intense satis- faction he would derive from the contound- ing of the wiseacres of Mink Hollow, a proceeding which was undoubtedly exhil- erating in the extreme. This exuberance proved contaglous, for it epread to others in the company, and the total result was as gingery a performance as the new Sully play 1s likely to ever get. The large audi- ence of Omaha admirers of Mr. Sully en- tered fully into the spirit of the occasion and rewarded the efforts of the star and hls associates with much applause and were re- paid with much occasion for honest mer- thought. Mr. Sully was called before the curtain at the end of the second act, and in & very neat speech referred to his long- continued coming to Omaha and the many fast frionds he has made here, very plainly saying that some of these latter could go too ewlft for him, and he doesn’t consider himself a piker at that. Seriously, the plece is reminiscent of “The Corner Grocery’ and “The Parish Priest.” It has the good points of both. In a qulet way It tells a very interesting lit- tle story, somewhat involved, but one that works out to the satisfaction of all and one that gives Mr. Sully an excellent opportun- ity to preach nice little sermons to every- body and to pose as en all-‘round bene- factor trom Benefactorsville. His methods are the quiet, earnest sort, and his humor is of the rich, ebullient type native to his race. Mr. Kokman supplies the German dialect which Mr. Sully finds necessary as a foll for his irish brogue, and does it very well.

Two men were arrested in connection with the firé, which partially destroyed the flint glass works of Mill & Co. at t four Salmon street and Lehigh avenwe, where $35,000 damage was done. The two men arresied John Oaks, the watchman, who was released on his own recognizance, and George V. Capewell, who was held in $800 bail for a further hearing. Both men were charged with con. spiracy. The (hird fire occurred at the factory of Block & Shaw, manufacturers of smoking pipes, on East York streot.

PEOPLE WATCH ERUPTION WITHOUT FEAR G e on Fascinating Colors Secure in Sclentific Assurances that No Danger Threatens Them with Des: ction. KINGSTOWN, St. Vincent, March 22.— The eruption of La Soufriere, which began yesterday, continued and increased in ac- tivity during the night, becoming more violent at 7 o'elock this morning. Since then the crater hes been belching forth depse, black clouds, accompanied by loud rumblings and flashes which rend the smoke which now wraps the entire Island in darkness. Blectrical discharges oc- curred at intervals during the night and at daybreak the sunlight playlng on the stupendous volcanic clouds produced ex- coedingly beautiful effects. Relying upon the sclentific opinion that Kingstown, although covered with heavy clouds which completely obscure the sun, 1s not in danger, the population shows no alarm. According to advices from Chateau Belalr, black sand is falling there, and Point-a- Plotre reports that strong detonations were heard there throughout last night and this morning.
