April 8.~Under terms of a temporacy injunction granted hers tonight in the circult ceurt all rail- roads operating in Missouri are restrained from putting into effect the 3-cent fare, which was to have obtained after midnight tomorrow. The Injunction was granted at the instance of Sesbert G. Jones. circuit attorney of St. Louls, acting fer Governor Hadley. The petition alieges that the bave entered into an unlawful agreement to fix the rates and thus have fajled to carry out their charter requirements in operating competing lines. It is also charged that there is a discrimination be- tween classes of passengers in that some are charged 3 cents on the ticket rate, others 2 cents and 7 cents on the mileage basis. The injunction {s returnable next Monday, Rush C. Lake and John J. Kennish, for- mer deputles In the office of Herbert 8. Hadiey, when attorney general, supervised the filing of the suit.

WISCONSIN WILL MULTIPLY ITS CORN SHOW EXHIBITS win Mrs. Hillebrand denfes Foster for the other party. R. A. Moore Says They Be Five or Tem Times s Great. Prof. “There Is no reason why Wisconsin will not have an exhibit at Omaha in 1008 five or ten times as large as last year." Thie Is the cheering news which comes to the management of the National Corn exposition from Prof. R. A. Moore of the University of Wisconsin experiment sta- tion, who was largely responsiie for the blg exhibit of the Badger state at the 1908 exposition. The agricultural interests of Wisconsin have organized an association Which now has 1,600 members. From the members of this organization a large collection of grains will be brought together for exhibition at Omaha. Wisconsin is coming to Omaha this year ! in special trains and prepared to take any- thing In sight when it comes to prizes. In return for the premlume Which the state expocts to win, the State Grain Grow- ers’ assoclation is being asked by Prof. Moore and others to offer a trophy at the Natlonal Corn exposition similar to the trophy offered each year by the Indiana grain growers. The board of directors of the National Corn exposition held an important meet- ing Thursday evening, at which final plans for financing the coming exposition were discussed.

To drain more than las and Sarpy county land, property own- ers along the Paplo are making every ef- fort to organize a dralnage district under the new law when the state will issuc the bonds to pay for the work and charge the owners an annual tax for twenty years to pay for the work. The proposed ditch will begin at the Lane cut-off, not far from Seymour four or five sectlons of Douglas county land and then crossing Sarpy county to the Platte or Missouri river, will drain at lest twenty-five sections This ditch will be less expensive than most ditches, according to property own- ers interested, as the creek Is in a good position to make the ditch easy to con- struct. From % to $10 per acre, which is pald in twenty annual payments, it thought will cover the cost of the ditch. Those who have given comsent and who are even anxious to see the ditch con- structed represent several thousand acres of land, among them being Guy Barton, Interurban Land company, Joseph Mail- ander, Barclay White cstate, ropresented by the Byron Reed company, and George Warren Smith, The construction of a dilch along the Papio has long been needed, according to A. L. Reed, and it will increase the value of the land from $30 to $60 per acre iVViIl Grand ; Jury Be Called? | Elt is Up to Judge Sears, and He May | Consult With Other Dis- trict Judges. Whether or not a grand called for the May term of district court semuins undectded. Judge Sears declared Friday morning that he had not made up his mind. 8o far as bringing Indictments against “‘well known'’ offenders is concerned there is no apparent necessity for a grand jury, informations having been lodged and men accused arralgned to cover all under ar- rest. Judge Sears may efther call a grand jury by himself or consult first with the other judges of the district bench., He gave no | intimation of which course he would pur- sue and it is possible that he may neither.

Good Friday silenced the tickers of the Omaha Grain exchange and in the com- mission offices of the Board of Trade, New York Life and the Bee buildings.

In other lines of busin, dld not have much influenc: | were deserted, especially noon and some strictly orthodox peo- ple closed up their offices and small shops all day. Bach year Good Fri- day is having a tendency to close up busi- ness more and more, according to church- men. .The complete close up of grain and stock markets in recognition of the day is cited as reason to believe it will be more generally observed. In Catholie, Episcopal and most Lutheran churches speclal services were held. Ser- vices In the Catholic and Eplscopal churches known as the ‘“passion service' was held from 12 noon until 8 o'clock in the afternoon. This service was held in the Kountze Memorial Lutheran church, Dr. Frederick Rouse of the First Congre- gational church leading in the meditatio Dr. L. Groh and Dr. R, H. B.

The loan collection of the National mu- seum has just been enriched by a small but important deposit of Delaware Indian relics by Richard C. Adams, the hereditary chief of the tribe, who iIs a resident of | Washington. The collection has just | been placed on exhibition. It consists of a silver peace pipe, silver tomahawk, wam- {pum belt, flute and war bonnet, all of them the finest specimens that a fashion- able Delaware brave could want to sport on a dress occasion. All of them, too, have historle value, the biffalo horns on the war bonnet being the same that were worn by the war chief of the tribe when he signed the treaty with Penn in 1682 The silver pipe was presented to jtribe in 1814 by General Harison, and is engraved “Peace and Friendship.” It i3 decorated with a picture of an American eagle and of an Indian shaking hands with an army officer.

The war club is the most sinister of the relics. It has a record of eight men to its dit, so far as is known. It was pre- sented to Captain Swannock, the war chief of the tribe, and carrled by him through the Florida war of 1538, and was by him presented to War Chief Secondine, and by him carried on two trips with Fre- mont across the Rocky mountans and through the Mexican war. It was carried his successor in the civil war, and al- The tribe presented it to Mr. Adams in 1902. There are not many of the Delawares left. There are, perhaps, 2000 of them altogether, some scattered in cities, many of them citizens of the United States, and a small band of them still in New Mexico, though the most of them are in Oklahoma They were the Indians inhabiting Dela- ware and’ Pennsylvania at the time Penn made his settlement there.
