CANNED TOMATOES DUMP
ED INTOTHE MISSOURI
Five Thousand Cans of Spoiled
Goods Condemned by the
Food Inspector.
Mrs. Macinurphy, inspector for
the Nebraska state food commis
sion, seized and condemned seven
and one-half tons of canned to
matoes and personally superin
tended the dumping of the entire
amount of spoiled food into the
Missouri river at Nebraska City.
There were 5,000 cans of the
condemned goods and two trips
with a big dray were required to
dispose of the stuff. Mrs. Mac
murphy rode on the seat with
the driver and stood by her post
till the last swollen and pulTed
up can was sunk beneath the rag
ing waves of the Misouri river,
where they may yet become food
for the fishes.
The 5,000 cons were only a por
tion of a carload of the goods
which the jobbing firm of Brad
ley, Catron & Co. bought last
October from William Craig &
Son, who canned the goods at Roy,
Utah.
The "swell-head" in the stock
of goods were picked out by Mrs.
Macmurphy and condemned as
being unfit for food and were by
her confiscated.
Some of the spoiled cans were
found in possession of retail
dealers who had bought of the
jobber. The canning company
has promised to reimburse the
jobber for his loss.
Fermentation had swollen many
of the condemned cans until the
tin gave way and the contents
leaked out upon the dray and
made a very offensive smell which
Mrs. Macmurphy had to endure
during her trips to the river. One
can when punctured by Stale
Chemist Redfern in his office in
the state house exploded with a
loud sound and some of the con
tents were splattered against the
ceiling by the force of the escap
ing gas. Lincoln Journal.

BIG Hill STORM TWENTY
EIGHT YEARS AGO TODAY
Adam Hild Recounts the Occur
rence and Was One of the
Great Sufferers.
Mr. A. Hild drove in from the
farm today and made the Journal
ofllco a friendly call while in town.
Mr. Hild recalled the fact that
this day is the anniversary of the
great hail storm which came July
13, 1883, just twenty-eight years
ago. The matter is quite vivid in
the recollection of Mr. Hild, as it
was his first year in Nebraska and
his tlrst crop. He did not get
much of a crop that year, and
many of his neighbors were in the
same predicament. Mr. Hild was
not the only Illinoisan who came
that year. There were others, and
among the number were Adam
FornolT, Chris Sloehr and Fred
Ohlenhausen.
Mr. Hild recalls that the hail
destroyed the crops over a strip
nearly fifteen miles wide. His rye
and spring wheat were almost
ready to cut, and his corn was
looking tine, but tho hail reduced
it to almost nothing, and it lasted
but a few minutes. The next day-
large hailstones were found a foot
deep on the north side of his corn
crib.

Judge Cornish, of Lincoln, Special Judge Called Here to Try a Few
Cases for Judge Travis, Decides against the Commercial Club
in the Mandamus Case.
From Wednesday' Pally.
Judge Cornish, special judge,
called here to try a few cases for
Judge Trais, yesterday handed
down a decision in the mandamus
case brought by the Plaltsmouth
Commercial club, which banishes,
for the present, all hope, of Cass
county having a respectable place
to house its delinquents. The
case was called on the tOlli and
the parties appeared, the Com
mercial club by Mr. A. L. Tidd and
the county by C. H. Taylor, coun
ty attorney, and tho matter was
submitted on the demurrer of the
county attorney and argued at
some length. Judge Cornish took
the matter under advisement un
til Tuesday, July lllh, when he
handed down a decision adverse
to the pet il ion of the Commercial
club.
Tho demurrer was on tho
ground that the petition did not
state fads sufficient to constitute
a cause of action. It appears
from what was said by the court
in passing on the demurrer that
tho statute has two provisions ap
plying to different phases of tho
county improvement proposition.
And the question resolved itself
into whether the present case re
quired a majority of the votes
cast on tho proposition, as con-
In Probate Court.
Mr. G. W. Cheney and wife, ac
companied by Miss McCann of
Edison, who is Mrs. Cheney's
guest, motored from Union this
morning and Mr. Cheney looked
after some business in the county
court. Mr. Cheney made arrange-
tended by the Commercial club or
a majority voting at the election.
It seems that the matter of
whether a special election is call
fid to vote bonds for the public
improvement or building a jail, or
other county buildings, and when
the proposition is voted upon at
a general election, Hie court
holding lo the view that on a
special election to vole bonds tho
provision of law staling that a
majority of votes cast on the
proposition would he sufficient,
while at a general election, where
a levy of taxes for such improve
ment was voted upon, it would re
quire a majority of all votes cast
at the election.
Judge Cornish's journal notes
are about as follows: "Tho cause
was submitted, on consideration
w hereof I ho court sustains Iho
demurrer of respondents herein.
To which ruling of the court tho
relator excepts. Tho relator elects
not to plead further, but to stand
upon his demurerr; overruled by
tho court. The court finds that
tho petition, not stating facts suf
ficient to constitute a cause of ac
tion, the said action should bo
dismissed, and the same is dis
missed." Judgment accordingly.
To which ruling and judgment tho
relator excepts.

This is Our Regular Season's
Clearance
THERE'S nothing particularly sen
sational about our Summer Sale; it's a regular thing
with us; and there are two kinds of men who are
likely to be interested in it.
One class is made up of men who wait for this time,
when they can buy good clothes for less than usual price;
a man who sets the limit of his clothes-price at, say $18,
is willing to pay $18 for a $27.50 suit, or get his usual $18
to $22.50 suit at $14.
Another class of men take advantage of such a clear
ance to get an extra suit or two for future use.
In either case we're glad to sell them the clothes; we
want to get our space cleared for Fall goods coming in;
we re willing to cut off our profits on the Summer goods
to accomplish this end.
It's a plain business proposition that ought to inter
est you whoever you are or whatever clothes you have;
it's a good thing for you and for us.
