Conscicace Money.
County Treasurer Scbarmano re
ceived through the mail Friday
an envelope containing a fire dollar
bill and on a sheet of paper were
written the words: Return to
general fund." No signature was
attached and the writing on both
envelope and sheet of notepapcr
gave evidence of having been dis
guised. Some one has at some time
wrongfully obtained money from
the county, and having atrophied
conscience returned the bill re
ferred to which may form part or
all of the money illegally secured.
This is the first instance wo. have

office.

Tbo Masonic Temple.
The committee appointed by the
Masonic orders to take in charge the
building of a temple on the corner
of Dewey and Fitth streets will
hold its first conference this even
ing. This committee has been
given lull power to act, the only
restriction placed upon it is thai
the total cost shall not exceed
twenty thousand dollars. While a
general plan of the building has
been discussed in the meetings ot
the lodges, no definite plans have
been decided upon, but it is prob
able that the dimensions will be
50x110 feet and a height of two
stories. The lower floor will be
diyided into two business rooms,
and the upper room Ubed exclusive
ly tor lodge purposes.
We learn from a member
of the committee that it is
quite probable that nearly the
maximum amount named by the
lodges will be expended in the
building, which will insure a struc
ture second to none in the city. It
is the intention to complete the
preliminaries as early as possible.
and begin the construction woik at
a date that will insure the comple
tion of the building before next
fall.
The addition of this building to
Dewey street will make a decidedly
marked improvement to that
tlnroyghfare.

A lew days ago a car was loaded
with cattle at Vesta, Neb., and
started on its way to Soutu Omaha.
When the train arrived at Tecum-
sell, it was noticed that the car
door was open, but the stock
seemed to be all right. While the
train was yet at the depot a steer
came running down the track bel
lowing for his mates, He was
driven to the stockyards and again
loaded into the car. Investigation
disclosed the fact that the steer
had fallen out of the car more than
mile out of town and being unin
jured had at once given chase to
rejoin his companions.
