Lincoln, March 12.—Members of the Nebraska state capltol commission were charged with "breaking faith with the people of Nebraska" In an attack by Senator Henry Behrens of • 'timing county in the senate this morning. "The commission appeared be fore the legislature four years ago,” he said, "and promised that the cost of the new capltol would not exceed $5,000,00(1. Now they are before us again asking an additional $3,000,000 to complete the building, and there Is no certainty that even this amount will suffice." Senator Behrens’ heated attack came during the debate on a motion to place on file two bills which had been’ killed by the senate finance committee. These were tlie bill al lowing the state university a flat 1-10 mill levy for 10 years to cofnplete its building program, and the bill al lowing the state normal school a flat 1-25 mill levy for 10 years for the .-lame purpose. He alAi declared that the Ijineaatev county delegation in the senate, Which lias supported the bills, wished to have the billy placet! on general file "to £lve the powerful university lob by a chance to get In its work.” At tlie end of the debate the bills p0 were placed on general file by a vote of 17 to 16. nil of tlie Douglas county delegation supporting the bills. The lower house Thursday morning passed tlie gasoline tax bill by a vote of 72 to 23, which gave the bill a ma jority of more tlinn two-thirds, suf ficient to place in it an emergency clause making it effective immediate ly. The bill now goes to the senate.

"Ves, tndeedy, young man," hs replied to a query. "When I. went through here the last time I rode or an Indian drag behind two ptnti ponies. And not so uncomfortable either," he added with a glance al the T’ulliiian he had Just quitted. Discreet questioning elicited from the doctor that he had been at that time returning east from his army career when he served as orderly and hairdresser to General Custer on tht Wyoming plains. Custer's Language (aastir. •"My time yeas up six mouths be fore the Little Dig Horn,” be pro ceeded. "Custer? My, I never shall forget the language be used yvhen 1 used to comb the snarls out of Ills hair. But that was long ugo and here is the only relic of those yvlld days," and he drew from an inside pocket a large, brass cylinder yvhlch lie defined as a 50-caliber Bhell for General Custer, Respite From Travel a Sharp's rifle. “A good gun but vary noisy,” ha explained. • According to .tlie conductor of the Overland, Dr. Judson entertained the passengers the previous evening with a stereopticon lecture in the dining car, exhibiting plates of bacilla, great ly enlarged, and some interesting' views of the Shakespeare country.

The doctor takes both Ids years and ids laurels lightly enough and attributes Ids longevity to the excel lent care given him by Mrs. Judsorg whom he expected to meet at Ogden, Utah. _ , Father Fined in Smallpox Case Bo> Testifies He Vi as Told to Resist Expulsion From School.
