A Council Bluffs paper Is responsible for
the statement that the postonico at Luke
Manawahad been discontinued because there
was no republican there to servo s post
master , and tha administration wo ill a not
appoint n democrat. The only truth about
the statement Is the fact that the postofllcc
ban been discontinued because it did not pay.
The old postmaster , whoso salary was based
on the business done , could not support his
family on $3.50 n mouth , and there seemed to
bo no ono , either democrat or republican ,
wBo was ambitious to bo his successor.
Those interested in Manawa were urged to
recommend some ono ns postmaster , but as
no ono could bo found , of any shade of

iff Hnlnbow Is itlll In the city , and will make

William M. Anderson and A. J. Weldon
filed n complaint yestordav against an outfit
that has been doing an extensive tulovlng
business of Into in the western part of the
city. The outllt Is located n short distance
south of the motor bridge near the river , and
Is presided over by n woman who goes by
the name of Williams , Shaw , or Young , as
the case may demand. Anderson lives near
the corner of Third avenue nnd Thlrty-llfth
street , and Weldon Is bulldlne u house near
by. A day or two ago Anderson went homo
and found his door unlocked. Ho thought at
the time that It looked as though ho had had
visitors during his ub'-cncn , and the next day
ho was certain of it when he went to change
his clothes and found his best suit missing.
About the bamo tlmo Weldon found a lot
of lumber nnd .shingles that had been lying
around hi ? new house were gone. Anderson
nnd Weldon suspected that the Williams out-
lit was responsible for the theft nnd tuoy
decided to make un investigation. Weldon
discovered some shingles at the Williams
house , and he had n search warrant issued.
Constable Evans , who served the warrant ,
found the shingles nnd conllscated them , but
no trace was found of Anderson's Sunday
clothes.
It Is reported that a large load of chickens ,
pics and vegetables was taken across the
bridge nt an earlv hour yesterday morning to
bo disposed of. The neighbors are very much
worked up over the doings at the Williams
shanty , and threats of tar and feathering are
freely made.
There has been no warrant issued so far
for the arrest of any of the party , as It is
hard to tell who should bo arrested. The
neighbors , however , do not c.iro particularly
whether ono of the company meets with
punishment , or all of them , but if nothing is
done by the authorities in the matter they
threaten to take the matter Into their own
hands nnd lynch a few of them Just lor luck.

Tony Dcllnslcy Did His Itust to Min
der Lou KmcrHou.
About 8 o'clock this morning Tony Delinsky
put the 11 nisli in K touches on his Omaha ca
reer. ,
Some three or four t'nys ago ho attempted
to shoot his mistress , Lou Emerson , at her
house , 000 Capitol uvonuo. Ho was unsuc
cessful and was chased from the house with
his own revolver in the hands of nn infuri
ated sister cyprhm of the Emerson.
Arrests were made , and all parties fined
for disturbing the peace. Late last night
Dcllnsky repaired to the house , and after
spending some hours In a wordy wrangle , sot
ou Emerson and boat her severely.
Then , when the woman was helpless from
liquor and abuse , ho llred a shot full in her
face and lied , without waiting to see the result.
Luckily for nil parties , the ball missed the
object uiir.cd at.
Delinsky leaped Into his hack nnd drove
away at full speed pursued by an olllcer , who
tired nt him as ho lied.
Emerson is badly bruised about the head
and body , the result of the brutal hack driv
er's ilerco onslaught , but how seriously could
not bo determined at once. Shu was taken to
the police station to bo cared for.

READ THE FOLLOWING CONDITIONS
All Claims Arising In Nebraska , Kim-
sii , lown niul Hontli Dnlcotn
Will no Handled by The
Itco Itnrunn.
About thirty days ago a now departure
was Inaugurated by tlio San Francisco Ex
amlncr , now the leading paper on the Pnclflo
coast. Its proprietor , Mr. Hearst , son of the
late Senator I lours t of California , who has n
very largo fortune at his command , conceived
the Idea of establishing a bureau of claims at
Washington , manned by the ablest lawyers
and specialists conversant with the routine
work In the various departments and bureaus
of the government. The object of Mr. Hearst
in this undertaking Is clearly set forth In
ttio prospectus taken from the Examiner
to bo published In a later Issue of Tin : Bic :
When the announcamcnt of this now do-
p.nrturo was made negotiations wore nt once
entered Into between Tin : Bin : and the pro-
prlctor of the Examiner to Join hands and
mutually sliiro In the enterprise. Those ar
rangements have now been perfected and
agreements entered Into by which TiinBcn bo
cornea n nn-wnrknr nf thn Knnr.lnnr In tlio
territory whoru Tin : Bic enjoys so extensive
a subscription patronage.
Under this arrangement all application * for
claims , either lor pensions , Indian depreda
tions , land or mining claims , patent or postal
claims In the states of Iowa , Kansas , South
Dakota and Nebraska , will bo taken In hand
by Tin : HBR Bureau of Claims m'O uiua an
through It forwarded to headquarters at
vVashington where the Examiner bureau will
prosecute them to a Una ! and speedy con
clusion.
Tin : BII : : takes pleasure In offering to all
its patrons and particularly to subscribers to
Tin : WKKICI.V BII : , the services of this now
bureau which , wo have no doubt , will provo
of great advantage to them , both In prose
cuting now claims to a successful issue and
in expediting all claims entrusted to Tun
Buu bureau.
The Conditions.
As n condition precedent to any person
availing himself of the services of the bureau ,
Tin : BII : : will require that the applicant shall
send in n subscription to Tin : Ovtvn
WKCKI.V BBI : for n year. A remittance
of SI will entitle the person sending it to one
year's subscription and also n membership in
the Claims Bureau association composed en
tirely of subscribers to Tin : BEE.
All persons now subscribers of Tin :
WIIKM : : HUB who will send us one new sub
scriber will bo entitled to membership In the
association In their own names and the now
subscriber will also receive one cortilicato
of membership besides his paper.
Subscribers of Tin : DAILY BEI : who send
in subscriptions to the weekly will bo entitled -
titled to the same privileges ns those of Tin :
WBCKI.V BEI :
No .service will bo undertaken for nny per
son who is not an actual subscriber of THE
BEE.
The Terms.
The terms under which claims will do
prosecuted will depend entirely upon the
amount of service rendered In each case.Vo
can safely assure all patrons of the bureau
that the charges will bo very much lower
than rates charged by the regular claims
lawy Jiand claims agents at Washington.
It go without saying that the Examiner
and THE BEE are in position conjointly to ex
pedite business and do service at more lib
eral rates than nny other medium for the
prosecution of claims.
In ho matter of fees and charges THE Bun
desires only to clear expenses. The bureau
is Intended for the relief of the people from the
rapacity of legal sharks. In many cases fees
allowed attorneys nro irrevocably llxed by
law. and in such the question is decided. In
other claims such a charge will bo made as
scorns to cover the actual expenses Involved
in collection
Wo maito no effort to solicit your
patronage , as does the ordinary agcn
who seeks your elalm for a financial
consideration. Such is not our pur
pose. Wo offer to ono and all the survlcos of
n well equipped bureau , where a claim of any
nature can be sent , or information in regard
thereto be obtained. If your claim is worth
less or illegitimate you will be so notlQod
without fear or favor. If the claim is goo-
uino it will receive prompt attention and
oflicicnt prosecution. If unsuccessful , no
charge will bo made ; provided , however ,
that claimants must defray their own ox
pcnscs in the preparation of allldavlts , depo
sitions , and other evidence outside of Wash
ington. Wo will furnish the necessary legal
papers and bear the Washington expenses
only In unsuccessful claims. When claims
are allowed , n reasonable foe will bo charged
to cover actual cost.
All letters will bo promptly answered and
all information concerning form of applica
tions for claims , terms , nta , will be given
with as little delay as practicable. No lotor
will bo answered unless the sender uncloses
requisite stamus for reply. No information
concerning any particular claim will bo Ira-
parted until the applicant lias become a
member of The Bee Claims Bureau associa
tion.
