(From a Statf Correspondent.) LINCOLN, Jan, 22.—(Special.)—Charles O Whedon has filed his application to have his name placed on the primary election \ fallot as a candidate for the republican nomination for United States senator. Mr. ‘Whedon pald his $60 to the county treasurer and brought his receipt to the office of the secretary of state this afternoon. Sec Fatary of State Junkin accepted the filing &nd unless someone enfolns him the name will go on the ballot to be voted for Au- gust 16, the date of the state primary. Some time ago Attorney General Thomp- son gave an off-hand opifilon that the pri- mary law prohibited ~the nomination of éandldates for the senate at the coming state primary and in this decision He was upheld by Arthur Mullen, who managed the legislation for the democratio legis- lature last winter. In the law which fixed the filing fee the candidate for the senate must pay §4, so Becretary of State Junkin decided that he would accept fllings from any candidate who produced a receipt showing he had paid to a county treasurer the $60 filing fee.

NEBRASKA CITY, Neb, Jan. &—(8pe clal.)—The greater portion of this week there has been on trial in the dlstrict court the divorce case wherein Richard A. Glove, one of the ploneer settiers of this section, has been endeavoring to secure a divorce from his wife, Mrs. Carrle Glove. The piaintiff went on the stand and was there for a whols day, telling his side of the story. He is 76 years of age and his wife 63. They were married in this city some twenty-five years ago, & year after he had secured a divorce from a former wife, whom he charged with being cruel. At that fime he was known as a large land owner and cattle ralser and after tfie first divorce he had 220 acres of land and & large number of cattle left. He now owns 520 acres of land, but his cattle is all gone and he testified that he had spent $15,000 on the Board of Trade in Chicagd and lost it and his lands carried a mort- #age of $15,000 as & result of his specula- tions. He charged his wife with having been intimate with a prominent South Omaha commission man and & prominent business man of Omaha. The latter came to this city and took the stand and denied the charge, while the South Omaha man offered to come and give testimony. He charged his wife with with being intimate with & local grain man, but he proved an alibl. He had no testimony but his own, while the wife went on the stand, followed by & number of women, and dented all of his charges. He also charged his wife and sister-in- law with trying to take his life by putting strychnfne in his fool, but that was denled by both of them. The case has caused considerable interest hers and the sur played the part of umpire In a dispute between the owner and the patrons of a telephone company and got that settled up without any hearing or trouble. » Batea Against Session. | Colonel Bates of Plattsmouth, member of the late democratic legislature, was & v caller at the office of the chief executive this afternoon, and while there he regis- tered & protest against any extra session. Colonel Bates sald ‘he saw no reason for an extra session and he had never re- cetved any petition asking him to express himself upon it. The Plattsmouth colonel has just re- turned from a trip to the west end of the state and shortly he expects to locate there and establish a democratic news- paper, leaving his sons to manage the paper at Plattsmouth. This change fs rounding country, because both of the peo- ple are prominent and are known to al- most everyone. Yesterday afternoon Mr. Glove was on the stand and made some statements which his sister-in-law, Mrs. Mary Price, did not like, and she created a furore by bounding to her feet and de- nouncing him as & “lar” and started towards the witness stand, threatening to do him great bodily harm. She had to be taken from the court room, under instruo- tions from Judge Travis, who promised to have her looked up if she did not remain away, Mrs. Glove, in her cross petition, first asked for a mseparation and for maln- tenance, but yesterday withdrew her pe- titlon and ffled another, asking for an ab- solute divorce. The case was argued and submitted to Judge Travis last evening, made on ascount of the health of Mrs. Bates. Dectsion on Oapital Stock. In order to settle & long mooted question § a8 to what really is the capital stock of a corporation, the Railway commission put the matter up to the attorney general. The question grew out of the application of corporations to lssue stock or contract dobts. The question asked the attorney ’Iml was: *“Can a corporation under atatute, (section 4125, Cobbey's statutes) be per- mitted to issue its bonds or oreate an Indebtedness In oxcess of two-thirds of the smount of capital stock actually issued?” In eoncluding his opinion the attorney B meneral says: “I am lead to the conclusion and give it s my opinien that the term ‘capital stock,’ ns used In this statute, means the sub- scribed or paid up capital stock, and not the autharized capital stook, nor the ‘capi- tal' or gross assets of the corporation, for this may fluctuate as the value of the Property may fluctuate in which the assets of the eorporation arising from its stock sales have boen Invested, and that a corpor- . ation Incorporated under the laws of this state may not create an Indebtedness in excess of 66% per cent of the aggregate of both Its pald up and, subscribed capital stock.” Friend Club B FRIEND, Neb, Jan. 22.—Special)—A banquet was given the newly organized Commerelal club of Friend by the genial ? host of_the Hotel Del Coronado last even- ing.

BROKEN BOW, Neb., Jan. 22.—(Special.) —One of the finest private stamp and curlo collections In the state was destroyed when the court house here burned. The collec~ tion belonged to Clerk of the District Court George Mair, and was worth, at a rough estimate, $1,600. Mr. Mair has been about forty years in making- the collection and had étamps ‘and relics from all parts of the world. Some of his rare stamps, which had never been canceled, Were from the Brit- ish colonies in North America, various ex- positions, Montserrat, West Indles, New- foundland and Hawail. Any number of the stamps were worth from $2 to $15 a plece, while one sheet from the Hawalian islands was valued at $150. He says he would not have taken $800 for the general collection of stamps, as they can never be replaced at this later day. Other curios that went with the lll-fated bullding were valuable Indlan relics, autograph letters, political badges and tickets from the time of Lin- the original sheetiron tea chests that was dumped into Boston harbor during revo- lutionary days. The Board of Supervisors went into ses- slon today for the purpose of taking imme- dlate action on & new court house. Chair- man M says the board will make a suggestion of a &-mlill levy, then put it up to the people of the county at a special elec- tion. This ought to insufe about $35,00, and that, together with the Insurance, would probably bulld a $0,000 court house. JOHN D. MINES IS DEAD One of Plomeer Business Men ot Hastings Passes Away.

FAIRBURY, Neb, Jan. 22.—(Specfal)—A profit of $1,108.41 on twenty-two sows in one year seems almost ltke a falry tale, vet that is a record that Representative John P.
