Nebraska l LINCOLN FEELING THE AXE Criticism of Neighboring Cities Re- sults in Loss of Business. i COMMERCIAL CLUB IS AROUSED " R stablishing Caplial Bome Serious Talk of ot City—=Govers er Wedding. (From a Staff C6rrespondent.) LINCOLN, May 15.—(Speciul.)—A serious Juestion discussed by several members of \he Commercial club during the noon hour “ecently, was the ad ity of selecting @« censor to pass on the news (o be Yshed in the local papcrs regarding the wetion of the citizens of nelghboring towns. t Has been the custom for many years for sertain partles in Lincoln to attempt to manage the affalrs and regulate the ac- tion of the nelghboring towns as well as the capital city, and it has just dawned upon_ certaln business and professional men - here that the practice is not helping $he city. So these parties, who have given 4he matter sbme thought, have concluded that perhaps fromi a business standpoint 1t weuld. be better for the newspapers here to keep their hands off of the affairs of the cltizens of the close-around towns in- sofar a8 relatés to their attitude toward the liquor question As ‘soon as Beadrice voted In saloons, aftery two years of drouth, the Lincoln papers began to declare there was a ter- rible condition in that thriving little city. | Then Crete was held up as a second Have- lock and was sald to be the place of the ruin of many Lincoln persons. The Lineoln drunks were not blamed at all. Clties Pight Back. Beatrice fought back. And so did Crete and other towns that are being maligned are fighting back. It is very evident that business in the capltal city has been struck and struck hard, for the squeal that went up from the Commerclal elub members has been heard all over town. Thoke discussing the matter Insisted that the papers discontinue writing of Beatrice, Crete and Wilber and look after Lincoln. The reports of conditions In these towns belng written at long distapice, it has been easy for those abused to answer back hard, and they have done It. So It Is very probable that heéreafter the papers here will confine themselves to attacks on Omaha. In the meantime Lincoln came near losing & very necessary and hard- working official last week because of the activity of thé various clubs In criticlzing and offering suggestions. This official has much to do with the work of bullding for the future Lincoln, and being well equipped in his line and of long experience, it was his beliéf that he knows what he is doing when he does anything. The Clubs Declde. This official's experience as:related to & teporter for The Bee was something like this: “When 1 finally decide what should be done, the matter Is put up to the councll and is endorsed. Work then progresses. Then along comes the clubs. They meet and condemn the idea. Their criticism is passed on to the council and the councll #lgs back and I am left high and dry. It will_take several months again to get the councll to even consider the proposition.” 1t is this officlal's idea and it is the idea of many business men of Lincoln that the time Is here when the city for its own protection should elect officers who are not afrald to go ahead and do something re- gardless of the various clubs and of critics. Several business men insist that they elect oftiolals to do the work of the city and take this responsibility off of their hands, but instead of that whenever a question comes up about which there is a possibllity of a difference of opinion, it needs must be passed on by all the clubs, before any- thing is done, with the result that the city is always in a turmol. The next great question to come Defors the people for settlement will be whether Wyuka cennetery shall be open after 6 o'clock at night so that persons in Lin- coln may go there and spend & quiet hour, feeling perfectly at home, or whether it shall remain closed after that hour and thus prevent a possible desecration of the'| place. This was the leading question last summer and it has not yet been settled definitely. Celebrate Silver Wedding. Governor and Mrs. Shallenberger will celebrate the twenty-fifth anniversary of their marriage on the cvening of May 24, by a public reception to which no cards will be necessary. They will keep open house at the executive mansion all even- ing, beginning at 8 oclock. Lieutenant Shallenberger and his bride will be among the house guests. Lincoln Industrial Exposition During the week of the Editorial assoct- ation, Lineoln will put on an Industrial exposition to show the editors that the city 1s a real live one, viewed from a busi- ness standpoint. The merchants have responded generously to the Invitation to make exhibits and the auditorium will be full ,of well filled booths. and everything that is manufactured in Lincoln will be on exhibit.

N aka News Notes. HOLDREGE—Phelps county was treated to another fine rain yestrday. In spite of the many freezes and thaws recently, the crops are lookl: this section, and farmers out this way are feeling con- sideranly better than they did two weeks | ago over the prospects. HOLDEGE—Prof. W. L. Johnson has made arrangements to present the newly organized Commercial Club band in a con- cert to be held in the opera house on the evening of May . In addition, Prof. John- #on expects to have several renditions by a large chorus, over 100 already having taken part in the preliminary practice for the event. HOLDREGE—The brother and father of Henry Swanson, who was killed about three weeks ago at a charivari party, at the home of B. C. Lindstrom, north of Bertrand, have been conducting an investi- gation lately to asscertain, if possible, just Who it was that fired the shot, which fatally wounded the young man. The jury, which was called by Coroner D. S. Palmer of this city, shortly after the shooting, in their verdict, laid the blame on no one, and held that the affair was purely accldental. But the relatives of the victim of the cldent, who reside In Kansas, were not led, apparently, and determined to go into th further and learn more than had been disclosed inquest. They, however, hav met with very iittle success. the voung men of the party. of which young Stan- #on was & membeér, do not seem to know business dealings with Wilcox, often being at his home. It appears that Jessen alien- ated the affections of Mrs. Wilcox, who has five children, the oldest aimost of age, and that shortly after his departure from Calro, after a wrangle with a member of the Wilcox household, Mrs. Wilcox came to this clty, ostensibly on a shopplng trip, and then disappeared. ‘The couple was traced to Denver and the husband and the sheriff followed. Denver detectives located them at a rooming house, it 18 sald, and the eouple was prompetly ar- rested. Jessen is 20 years of age and Mrs. Wilcox s several years his senfor. A reconclllation has been effected and Jesgen will not be prosecuted provided he keeps his promise to leave the country and pays the costs. It was finally arranged that Mr. Wilcox should set up an establishment in this city and Jessen should leave. New Elks' Lodge at Columbus. COLUMBUS, Neb, May 15.—(Speclal.)~ Columbus lodge No. 11% B.

Bright, farmers who live in the neighborhood of Johnson, took their 3-year-old daughter, Vera, to the fleld with them while they worked. The child wandered away from the parents a consid- erable distance and was bitten on the leg by a rattlesnake.

Brilliant, Tra Some time Wednesday night, probably between 10 o'clock and midnight, the earth will pass through the nebulous tall of the sky rover first tagged by Prof. Halley. “But there 1¢ absolutely no danger of the earth being hurt,” says Father W. F. Rigge, the astronomer of Crelghton uni- versity “And please emphasize that statement for it Is really surprising how many people there are Who seem to expect serious con- sequences. For thelr fears there s not the slightest basls in fact, and wny ner- vousness on the score of possible danger should be allayed at once.” Father Rigge says that if Wednesday morning s clear obesrvers may possibly see a big or little streak of light, similar | to one of the shoots or beams of the aurora borealls. 1f Wednesday should be an extraordinarily bright day, the comet may be seen near the sun; that is, provided the comet itself is in the humor or position to shine effulgently, On this proposition, Rigge and other astronomers are very cautious in committing theselves, and the Crelghton scientist frankly says that everybody who has been viewing the spayk- ling visitant from the purely sclentific standpoint is wondering just what develop- ment Wednesday will bring forth. On the possibllity of danger to the earth, though, they are all agreed there 15 nothing to be feared Just how much of the comet can be seen Wednesday evening, or for how long it will be in view, will depend on conditions in the starry dome. The illuminaiing power of the visitant will have much to do with Its miqifestation to earth dwellers Pale Lunas light will also cut considerable figure, but whether searchers see or do not see the comet, we may sit tight In a feeling of security from danger. BRITAIN'S RULER PLEASES PEOPLE (Continued from First Page.) part scarcely less powerful under the re- gime of King George and Quetn Ma: Mrs. Astor has been living very quletly here and will be looked upon with fdvor by Queen Mary. That is also the position of the duches of Marlborough. In the case of the last named, she is interested in a number of philanthropies in which Queen Mary has shown considerable interest. The queen realizes the difference of her husband, who lacks the social brilliance and the courteous diplomacy of his late tather. No one realizes better than Queen Mary that the king could never shine socially as did King Edward. King George likes the seclusion’ of his country residence, his library and his harmless little hobbies. 1In this respect the queen may have a dual object. The tradesmen. will be gratitied at her de- termination to make the English court a brilllant center of galety and life for it means the unlimited purchase of fine garb, In this mapner the queen shows fine at- tention to her busband’s subjects and at the same time becomeés the real queen in fashion, as well as in power.
