GOVERNOR HAS LIVELY EXPERIENCE Goes Out to Bay a Cow and is In- troduced to One Who Has No Respect for OMel Dignii. (From a Staff Correspondent.) \ .INCOLN, Nov. 2.—(Special.)~Tomor- raw the agony and suspense over the reve- nue law wiil be ended so far as the su- preme court commissioners are concerned, and then begins the worry as to what the supreme court will dd with the opinion of the commissioniers. The commissioners will file their opinion in the case with the cleri of the court tomorrow afternoon, and they have stated there will be nothing to pre- vent this action. The case based on this opinion will then be argued before the supreme court proper At the aitting on December 1. The opinion of the court probably will come down at the next sitting, December 15, which is the day the Board of Assessment and Equall- zation meets for the first time under the new law. That there Is a serlous differ- ence of opinfon existing between the three commissioners who heard the argument in the cuse there is no doubt, and just what their final opinfon will be no one on the outside can predict with any degree of cer- tainty. Judge Duffie wrote the opinion, of course, after he and his fellow commis tloners had agreed on a line of reasoning to a certain conclusion. It was the opi fon of the commissioners that it would not take more than thirty minutes, after they got together Baturday afternocon, to agree upon tho opinfon and announce it.| vidently, however, Judge Duffie ralsed some points in his argument to reach the conclusion, or by his arguments reached 4 conclusion that was hot anticipated by the other commissionets, for the thirty minutes passed, then Another, and then hours passed without the agreement being reached between the three men. It was finally announced by them that the opinion would be ready by Monday afternoon This disagreement of the commissioner. »caused much comment here, and nearly everybody s speculating on the result. But no one knows just what to guess. It may mean that Judge Duffie foud the iaw unconstitutional, and his colleagues falled 10 see it that way, or It may mean just the opposite. Whatever the decision fs, it will be a relief to a large number of people 10 know it. Governor Wants a Cow. The eimple announcement by the private seeretary of Governor Mickey that the #oVernor had gone to the penitentlary, was fhie occasion yesterday of a rush for that institution by a half dosen local reporters and the unearthing of the terrible story that the governor had tried to buy a cow. Hut connected to the cow there is a tale, and told by an eye witness It is mnot without some Interest, In that it shows how the governor of the state goes about such business. For some time the governor has had Ris weather eye out for a bovine that would be of such a pedigree and of such doclle temperament that when matters of #tate became a drudgery, he could rush to the eelf-same cow and by the sight of her be transterred back to the green fields of old Polk county, where he spent so that he might the sooner realize his desire the governor requested many of his ap- pointees ‘to keep a watch for what he wan (Warden .

And after introductions had been made by Wardén Beemer, here is how the gov- ernor did it. With Warden Beemer and Farmer Francls he tridged through a forty-agre fleld to where & number of cows were browsing. On the road over the go ernbr impressed it upon Farmer Francis that he wanted &' “fresh’ cow. Bvidently thie herd contained many such for when the trio hove In sight, unmindful of gub- ernatorial dignity, five of the cows shoved their terminals high In the air and with ~" & bellow and a snort stampeded for cover forty rods away. Theseé werp apparently too fresh for the governor, for he remarked that they were most too frivolous for his needs. ‘Then the governor wided up to what looked llke a thoroughbred shorthorn. Farmer Francis warned him that this cow was somewliat deceltful. The governor heeded not however. Hé thumped her sides, felt hef pulse in the fore leg, found Wer nose wet, polished her horns and called her “bo#s.” Then he crooked his own pedal extremitles at the knees and sat down on his heels. He stuck out his hand in the usual way and grabbed that from which the milk is shot into the bucket. He started the stream and then the cow started something. She raised up in her dignity with both hind feet. While she missed the governor ax she tore away, the shock of dodging was almost sufficlent to Jar from the governor the call for an extra ;rlon. That ended it. The governor didn't Uniform Municipal Bookkeeping.

Mr. Fox and Mr. Pratt are expected home Tuesday or Wednesday. Work the Restaurants. Lincoln has a number of “grub rushers and the police are busy trying to make a few arrests. During the last few evenings about twenty megls have been worked ot of the restaurant keepers and so far no one has been found to answer to the de- scription of the culpeits. The plan in sev- eral instances has been this: Three men €0 Into a restaurant and after eating hand to the cashier a $2 bill. The cashfer in three different restaurants was unable to change the bill and the owner goes out to get the change, the other two stepping out the front door to wait for him. They never come back. The Lincoln police had a man in jall sev eral days ago that in all probability w one of the men who held up the Hanscom park line motor car in Omaha several days ago and robbed the motorman, conductor and a passenger of a watch each, The man had three watches in his pockets, but as the Omaha police failed to notity the Lin- coln police of the robbery and the latter knew nothing of it, the man was discharged because no one could be found who would claim the goods DRIVER MURDEROUSLY BEATEN ommitted in Same Nelghbor. » Fatal Shootin SUPERIOR, Neb., Nov. 22.—(Special)— That the man who murdered John Anshutz, the wealthy Smith county farmer, is still in the region hetween Red Cloud and Lebanon is evidenced by a second murderous assault which occurred Monday night. Anshutz's brother came out from the east td attend the funeral of the murdered man, He went to Smith's livery stable in Red Cloud and secured a team and driver.totake him to his brother's place. When the driver was returning to Red Cloud after dark he was waylald and beaten insensible. His team afterward ran off and got into a barbed wire fence and was cut up. The driver, who had been struck on the head with something blunt, laid in the road all night, and it will be remembered that Monday night was a very cold one. Next morning nhis team was found by a searching party and a lttle iater the driver was discovered The northern part of 8mith county Is set- tled by a very intelligent and well-to-do cluss of farmers, but in the past four or five months there have been a number of terrible crimes committed there. The first was the shooting of a young man by a 16- year-old lad. The young man lived and the lad was not prosecuted. Next followed the triple murderwof Tom Madison, then the killing of Anshutz, and last, the attempt to Kill the Red Cloud driver. JUDGE THOMPSON TO CONTEST Making Inquirie Varfous Voting Precinets Which Indiente an Much, GRAND ISLAND. Neb., Nov. 22.—(Spe- clal.)~It is not at all unlikely that the elec- tion of J. R. Hamna of Greeley county as one. of the judges of the district court for this, the Eleventh indicial district, will -be contested by Judge J. R, Thompson. The fatter and his court reporter, B. H. Paine of this city, have been making inquiries into the iegality of the count, und its rej larity In seyeral precincts in this county, with a view'to establishjhg m&u for & contest and recount. Whether sufficlent evi- dence of any irregularity enywhere has been discovered Is not aé yet stated. The clogeness of the vote, Hon. J. R. Hanna having a majority of only two votés over J.'R. Thompson, will naturally lead to a contest if there is the merest Indication of any mistakes anywhere. If a contest is to be had it will no doubt be begun saoh after the ofictal canvass at Lincoln tomorrow. Fight Against Bond Issue. GOTHENBURG, Neb., Nov. 22.—(8pectal.) —Mr. O. H. SBwingley, tax adjuster for theé Unfon Pacific Railway company, spent Tuesday afternoon in Gothenburg looking up the late bond iseue of $,000 made by the school board to individual holders of war- rants. The Unfon Pacifie will fight the bond issue upon the grounds that it dis- eriminatos against the district in favor of the broker or warrant holder. Had the law provided for the issulng of bonds in blocks for the indebtedness against the district, and allowed the district to have sold same to the highest bidder, then there would have been no Aiscrimination -against the district, but as the law now Is, it provides that when there is no money in the district treasury and there are outstanding war- rants held by any broker all he has to do 18 to demand & bond fér the Indebtedness, which draws interest at 6 per cent, while ‘the holder can place them at 4 and make 2 per ceént per annum, which the ‘taxpayers of the district are compelled to pay. Y.om FREMONT, Neb., Nov. % The Fremont hospital bullding, which has been closed for several months, has been offered for sale to the Young Men's Chris- tlan assoclation for $20,000, and if the direc- tors of the latter can succeed in raising enough money to warrant them in making the purchase the sale will undoubtedly go through. The hospital bullding was erected three years ago at a cost of $30,000. It is a well constructed, three-story and base- ent building and could be converted into 4 bullding suitable for the needs of the as- soclation for about §,000. The association has owned for several years the property occupled by it on the corner of Fifth and ¥ streets, together with\the buildings in the rear of the same and“has for some time been contemplating putting up a building on dhat corne Deer Séem in Cass County.

SHIPPING LAW MAY BE TROUBLESOME Requireme that a Shipments Be Carried in American Vessels Will Be Hard to Enforce at ¥ . Al Inter WABHINGTON, Nov. 22.—The develop- ment of the Philippine islands during the past year, together with a review of pend- ing questions of importance, relating to the archipelago, is contained In the annual report of Colonel Clarence R. Edwards, chief of the bureau of insular affalrs of the War department, made .public today. The accomplishment of greatest importance to the Islands during the year has been the successful launching of the new fiscal system. By January 1 next the new system will be in complete operation. The new circulation medium consists of 18,000,000 pesos and fractional silver ecalns and 10,000,000 pesos in paper money. To estab- lish the new system and purchase the silver colnage two fssues of bonds were made of $,000,000 each, both.of which were #0ld at a premium. The proceeds of the sale of these, bonds were deposited and drew interest at the rate of 3% per cent, 80 that the government actually made money by going into debt. Colonel Rdwards emphasizes the neces- sity of a “eduction of the Dingley rates for the encouragement of trade between the United States and the Philippines. There s an active desire on the part of Philippine commercial interests, he says, for tariff concessions, and the report states that the same desire has been evidenced by the same Interests in this country. The chief exports of the islands to the United States are sugar, tobacco, hemp and copra. The latter two commodities already are on the free list. £hipping Law Troublesome. Aslde from the tariff question the matter of most serfous moment for the future is the enforcement of the congressional act requiring the carrying trade between the United States and the Philippines, as well as the coastwise trade, to be confined strictly to vessels carrying the American flag after July 1 next. At the present time Philippine commerce is carried in British ships to the extent of 5 per cent of the forelgn trade of the islands. All other foreign vessels carried practically the re- mainder of this commerce, leaving only 3 per cent to American vessels. A fleet of ut least eighteen American ships 1s being constructed and the predic- tlon 18 made that, despite the apprehen- sion now felt, American ships will be ready to take the place of foreign vessels with- out serfously inconveniencing the shipping Interests, The enforcement of this act, however, presents a much more difficult problem. There are now 4,12 vessels engaged in the coastwise trade of the islands. Of this number “only twenty-two are American ships. With the whole number of ships now participating in this trade the tonnage s sald to be entirely inadequate and the pessenger service wretched. It Is suggested that the building of light draft vessels to participate in this earry- ing business presents a splendid oppor- tunity for the profitable investment of American capital and the uncertalnty as to probable future congressional action is as- serted to be the reason why no steps are being teken to supply the coming impera- tive demand for American bujlt ships, Sorfous Questions of Law. Coloniel Edwards calls cttention to what he terms “the second stage of development for the PhHippine government,” as evi- denced by the increased work of the law offico of his bureau during the last vear. The ghange from a military to a civil government in the Islands has developed many intricate and interesting questions of law. A number of cases involving claims aggregating large sums are now pending in the United States court of claims, while other questions are before the cireult courts of this country. The amount of import and export duties collected under the military regime forms the basis for most of the claims. One of the questions of most interest presented s that of the right of the president of the United States to exercise the power of legistation in the Philippiries prior to the establishment of a civil government, Philippine history, as contained fn o vast collection of insyrgent war records now in possession of the bureau, is a work involv- ing painstaking dissemination, but prom- ises to add much of permanent interes to the literature of the slands. The education of Filipino youths in this | country for the purpose of making them the future teachers of the native schools of the island has begun under an act passed last summer by the insular government. Ninety-elght young Filipinos are now on their way to this country for that purpose. They will attend the grammar schools of southern California during the winter and in the spring be distributed in the west and eastern parts of the United States for further education. Colonel Edwards optimfstically says that the Filipiro exhibit at the St. Louls ex- position will be the feature of that show. Through an amendment to the clvil serv- ice regulations of the United States made by President Roosevelt to take effect April 16, transfers will be allowed from the elvil employes of the Philippines to government positions In this country, thus accomplish- ing an end which has been vigorously con- tended for by Colonel Edwards for some time and making efiiclent service in the Philippines & stepping stone to better places at home and thus raising the standard of efficlency and creating u new inducement to desirable clerk: A finaranteed Cure for Plies, Itching, Blind, Bleeding or Protruding Plles.

A new sanitarium and & house bullt next to it by Mr. Buhrer, Mr. B. Koeh- ler has put up & brick, also V. C. Shickley, A new brick storeroom, by L. §. Flegens baum, also a brick photograph gallery by | beautitul DeWald & Ralston and & store close by, with many other residences newly bullt over towa. ton, u thing the playwright has not vet the temerity to attempt. But in the play Robert Emmet is treated reverently and with such manifest sympathy that no fault can be found on that score. Some of the known incidents of his life have been con- nected with certain mythical events, the whole making a strong story in which the | cause of Ireland in the ineffectual revo- pretty love story the subplot, the result being strong in both dramatic avd “heart” interest, H Mr. Robert Conness plays (he role of | Emmet, con amore, making him a dasi- ing, warm hearted young man, full of his big scheme for overturning English mis- rule in the Emerald Isle and struggling against a strong stream of unfortuitous circumstances, surrounded hv treachery and finally betrayed into the hands of the men who sought his life through the me- dium of the girl he loved and who loved him. A naturalness marks the work of Mr. Conness that is most refreshing, for at no time does he descend to the artifices a lexs consclentious actor might adopi and | thereby cheapen the part he i= called on to enact. In the final act he delivers Rob- ert Emmet's speech from the dock with great effect, Next to Mr. Conness the best bit of asiing LA LR RRRRAAN Five kinds— 15, 20, 25, 30, 35¢c.

Mr. Fawcett finds Darby Keegan quite to bis liking La Rue gives much life to the thankless role of Lacey, who betiays Robert Emmet, Bdward O'Connor has much to do in the part of Jimmie Noonan, but loses much of the effect of the role through an apparent misconception of what he tries to make the humor of it. He ‘gets the laugh,” but mars the artistic result by doing so. Among the women in the cast the trying part of Sarah Curran falls to the lot of Miss Russell, who graduaily develops the force of the' role, until she makes it strongly | dramatic. Miss Martin's conception of the patriotic Irish peasant girl, Anne Devlin, is a fine companion plece for Mr. Sullivan's Dwyer. Others in the long cast do what Is set for them with taste and discrimina- tion. The plece has been given a most ambitious | setting; rarely indecd, is scenery #o appro- | priate and effective seen. The second act, showing a pass in the Wicklowe mountains, i= as realistic & bit of the scenlc artist's work as was ever put on an Omaha stage. Two audiences that jammed the Krug thea- ter like a cross-town car during the rush hour witnessed the performances yesterday and applauded the “patriots” and hissed the red coats with vigor. The plece will be on until after Wednesday evening. Vaudeville at the Creighton-Orpheum, Two things will strike the patron of the Orpheum this week—neither “sketch” nor “musical” agt appears on the bill. Instead, some realiy clever speclalty work makes up & program that Is full of laughter for the auditor all the time.

Other features are equally interesting. Antrim and Peters introduce the bill with some songs and !mitations of various ani mals and musical Instruments that are remarkably accurate, George Austin ad- | vertises Mmself as king of the high wire and if he doesn't give you your money's worth, you are hard to please.

McIniyre | and Primose furnish the real thing in black | tace comedy, and the three Crane brothers | give & burlesque minstrel first part that is laughable beyond description. Laredo and Blake are a clever palr of comedy acro- ' bats, and the Macart monkeys and dogs afford much fun by thelr performance, doing some clever and some very comic stunts. Two monkeys with strings of sleighbells actually shuke out recognizable tunes.. The kinodroine pictures are all new and entertaining. “The Girl from Sweden" at (he Boyd, Two large audiencos witnessed the pre { tation of the latest of dialect comedies at the Boyd yesterdoy, “The Girl from Sweden” Is not @ farce comedy, nor is it a melo-drams. pure and simple, but is really a gou¢ comedy-drama, telling a con- nected story n & direct way. It involves the fortunes of the necessary heroine and hero, both happening to be from Sweden, and introduccs the Inevitable villain and assistant villain, but here the semblance to the stercotyped play of the sort ceases. The theme is handled differently and the working out of the plot has been on orlgi- na Mncs. Miss Louette Babcock has the pait of the girl from Bweden, and makes her lovable as well as laughable. She has for a foll Nells Jansen, in the hands of “Swede" Bill Hall, who gives much force to the role of hero.
