JUDGE STRODE'S SUCCESSOR.
Governor Crounso today put an end to the
very lively llttlo fight that has been In
progress here over slnco the election over
the appointment of a successor to Judge
Strode , Just elected to congress. There were
8. dozen or more prominent candidates , but
the fight was waged so bitterly that the
governor brought In a dark horse and named
him. The next judge will bo E. P. Holmes ,
a member of the firm cf Field & Holmes , of
i \vlllch Judge Field , who made such a gallant
fight against Mr. Bryan two years ago , Is the
head. Mr. Holmes' commission was made
, $ . out this morning and Is now In his posses
sion. Ho will talto charge on the 1st of
January and will hold until the next general
election. ,
The Bar association recently met and after
a stormy session selected John M. Stewart
to ba recommended to the governor for the
'
judges'htp. Many of the members refused to
> veto , but after the meeting the fight was
again resumed. John P. Maule , the county
chairman of the republican cintral commit
tee , and A. J. Cornish , ex-member of the
legislature , wcro tbo principal candidates.
Today the lawyers are busy figuring out how
. It happened , but the most plausible theory
Is that Judge Strode was permitted t name
j , his own successor , and that ho named
1 Holmes In deference to Judge Field's request
and In payment of Field's magnanimously
getting out of Strodo's way last fall when
the fight for the Lancaster delegation was on.
The new appointee Is 38 years old and a
graduate of the State university , which In
stitution ho entered In 1870 , when but 14
years of age. Ho was admitted to the bar
In this county In 1879 and In 1882 removed
_ to Plcrco county. During his residence there
ho was elected regent of the State university
and during his Incumbency cf that office was
also a member of the legislature In 18S5 from
Pierce. At tbo conclusion of the session ho
settled In Lincoln , and has been practicing
law here over 'slnc3 , being first associated
with. Judge Webster and afterward with
Judge Field. Ho Is a lawyer of moro than
average ability , ot gcod standing , and his
appointment gives good satisfaction outside
ot the ranks ot the disappointed aspirants.

BUTTE , Neb. , Dsc. 4. ( Special. ) The
many requests made for aid by the destitute
'armors ' and citizens of Boyd county have met
with but little response from the generous
people ot Nebraska. At a meeting ot the
ellef committee , appointed by the county
ommlsslonors , the following appeal was Is-
ued , and copies mailed to the different cities
ml towns not Included In the drouth-
trlckcn region , and the good citizens of No-

help Boyd county people tide over the wln-
er , every menus hero having been exhausted :
Gentlemen : Boyd county woa opened for
ettlcmcnt In 1S91 ; the people who came to
.hat county were Industrious , but fortune
has not mnlleil upon us. The spring of ' 92
round our people breaking the sod and
planting the first crop , but very little of the
$ ell V.MI under cultivation , and therefore
only enough wnn raised to supply their Im
mediate demands.
The yciir of 'Kl gave us from one-third to
one-half a crop , and ' 91 a complete failure.
Our people arc In need and some are
actually suffering , nnd unices we receive
nld at once many more will suffer. All
we ask Is enough to sustain life during the
winter. We expect to secure nld from the
state for seed wheat , corn , oats , etc. , but
we must look to you nnd others for food.
Now If you can nld us In any way with
provisions , clothing , shoes , or money , we
will be very thankful. Ship to Uutte , via

Hoping you will lend us Immediate assist
ance , we remain , very respectfully ,

Jlojd Connty Citizens Hold to the District
Court.
BUTTE , Neb. , Dec. 4. { Special. ) The pre-
Imlnary hearing In the case against Whiting ,
Storms and Kloke , the Spencer election board
accused of fraudulently voting fictitious bal-
ots at the bond election October 1C , was taken
up In the county court Friday , before Judge
Skuse. After the Introduction of about
twenty-five witnesses , who testified that they
had voted In favor of the proposition ( the re
turns showing only eighteen votes ) the state
rested , and the defense moved to dismiss , be
cause the prosecution had failed to show that
fictitious ballots were cast , as charged In the
complaint. Judge Skuso overruled the mo
tion for the reason that although the state
had failed to make a case on the complaint ,
there was still a "probable cause" for holdIng -
Ing them to the dUtrlct court , which was
done. The ball was fixed at $300 each , which
was quickly furnished.

DUNCAN HEARS THEM NOT.
Douglas Street Theater Manager I.eavc
Employes Crying for 1'ay.
Duncan Clarke , the manager of the 'Doug '
las Street theater , better known as the * Peo-
pla's theater , Is alleged to have left for
parts unknown , and behind htm he has left
a number of people whoso chief object o
existence at present la to lay eyes upon
him.
It Is said that yesterday afternoon ho re
ceived from Manager Burgess of the Fif
teenth Street theater , which was destroyed
by fire-'yesterday morning , $500 for the lease
of the part of the building occupied by the
Douglas Street theater , and then , packing up
his possessions , ho folded his tents and
silently stole away. The stage hands and
the company playing In the house have lost
salaries that exceed $1,000 by a considerable
amount. <
The < first Intimation that the employes
had ot Clarke's disappearance was yester
day afternoon. He had Instructed them
that a rehearsal would take place at 3
o'clock , and they were all there at the ap
pointed hour. Clarke did not appear , but It
a short tlmo Mr. Burgess came on the scene
and wanted to know why they were al
about. They told him , and he Informs
them that ho had bought the lease and tha
ho was now manager of the house. Then
ensued a scene of walling and gnashing o
teeth , but It availed nought. Clarke was
gone , and with him everything but one
trunk. Lait night the two sons of Clarke
George and Duncan , took the trunk to the
A. D. T. omco across the street and In
structed the manager to keep It there untl
morning , when he would bo told where to
send It. They placed It In a coiisplcuou
place near the door. The male employes
of Clarke watched It with greedy eyes , and
shortly after sent Constable Dalley after
It with an attachment Issued from Justice
Brandes * court. The trunk was not opened
but the employes of the messenger office ari
convinced that It was filled with brick
packed In hay , judging from the weight
They think that It was simply a trick on
Clarke's part to keep his victims off hi
trail and that It was never meant to b
called for. The employes whom Clarke Ija
forsaken are largo In number. The Pick
anlnny Minstrel company was the last at
traction. The members were composed o
the Pickaninny band that has recently sprung
up In Omaha. Besides these , In a boarding
house at Fourteenth and Douglas street ? ar
seven girls whom Clarke has left behind
almost without a cent of money. Thel
names are Dora Mount Temple , Daisy Hlncs
Josle Melville , Vivian Leo , Georgle De Orsay
Clara Rogers and Frankle Londoner. Thej

In Any llvont.
The meeting of the business men Interested
n zecurlng the state fair for Omaha and cs-
abllshlng a first class mile race track and
aclng association , held at the rooms ot the
Commercial club last evening was much
nrger and even more enthusiastic over the
irospects for the fulfillment ot the project
ban the original meeting a week ago.
W. V. MONO again acted a * chairman , and
ho first business In order was the hearing of
ho report of the committee appointed at the
first meeting to receive bids on locations and
a confer with the railroads and other In
fluential corporations and devise ways and
means for the speedy accomplishment ot the
vork In hand ,
Mr. Clark , the chairman , stated that the
committee had received three propositions on
Itcj , and that It was the unanimous opinion
of the committee that an organization should
10 Immediately formed , to be known as the
Omaha Fair and Driving Park association ,
and that citizens proceed to solicit stock In
a sum not less than $50,000 , to enable theme
o put In their proposition for the state fair
> y the 1st of January. It also thought It
> est to leave the question of location alone
'or ' the present , In order that other pruposl-
.tons might bo received.
PROPOSITIONS FOU SITES.
Among the propositions already In hand
was one from the owners of the land ot the
West Side Driving Park association to sell
ho track at $150 an aero less than was con-
racted for It a year ago , or In other words ,
at 1350 an acre. The second was from Claus
3eevers , to lease said association 114 acres on
tVest Dodge street , across the Papplo , at
! 1,200 per year for ten years , and at the end
of ten years to sell the snmo to the nssocla-
lon at an appraised value , to bo not less
than $27C per acre. The third was from
Alfred D. Do Long , 110 or 120 acres In East
Omaha , on a five year lease , rent free , asso
ciation to pay all taxes , extend lease at the
end of five years on a rental ot 6 per cent ot
the valuation ot the ground , valuation to be
determined by arbitration. In this event the
Omaha Bridge and Terminal company will
extend Its tracks , making It possible for all
roads entering Omaha or Council Bluffs to
deliver passengers at the grounds.
Proposed articles of Incorporation were then
read by Secretary Utt , authorizing capital
stock to the amount of $100,000 , divided Into
shares of $100 each , payable as called for by
the board of directors , existence to begin
January 1 , and the highest amount of Indebt
edness to which said corporation should at
any time subject Itself to not exceed
two-thirds of Its capital stock.
These questions brought out much discus
sion , all of which had been thoroughly ex
pressed at the meeting a week ago , yet It was
not until well along In the shank of the even
ing that Mr. Hicks offered a , resolution that
the present meeting be authorized to open a
subscription list for moneys with which to
make the proposed enterprise a certainty , and
that at an early date the subscribers get to
gether and appoint a committee to select a
site for the grounds , and that whatever selec
tion this commltteeo made be unanimously
ratified by the subscribers.
RACE TRACK ANYHOW.
Mr. Walsh offered an amendment that all
subscriptions bo taken with the proviso that
the state fair bo secured , which paved the
way to another almost endless debate. The
question being finally demanded , Mr. Walsh's
amendment was voted down , and Mr. Hcks' |
original motion put through with1 a whoop.
This advancement made , II. A. McCord
made a motlijn that the committee embodied
In Mr. Illck motlon bo Instructed to meet
the officers of the West Side Driving Park
association and the property owners
of the site , with Instructions to
come to an agreement upon these
grounds , and that the said parties men
tioned herein meet at the Commercial club
rooms for conference at noon today.
On motion of Mr. Paxton the chair was
authorized to appoint a number of subscrip
tion soliciting committees , In order that all
lines of business might bo properly waited
on , also that the original committee appointed
to consult with the railroad and street rail
way companies be Instructed to wait on the
street railway company and get a written
proposition from It In regard to what It would
do toward extending Us lines to the west
side grounds.
Thls done , an adjournment was taken , until
Monday evening next , when the various com
mittees will report on the progress made In
their respective assignments.

t
MINNEAPOLIS , Dec. 4. Miss Catherine
Gang , a well known dressmaker , was mur
dered last night under sensational and as yet
mysterious circumstances. She was a young
, woman ot 29 who had built up a good busl-
' ' ness and was reputed to be worth $10,000. At
11 o'clock last night her body waa found In
the middle of a country road leading Into the
city by William Erhart , a See baggageman.
It was still warm , but life was extinct. There
was a bullet hole directly through the- head ,
her nose was mashed and broken and there
was a long , jagged cut la her upper Up. The
police believe they are close on the heels ot
the man who committed the murder and
they developed tha following facts : Miss
Oang had formed an intimate acquaintance
with a certain St. Paul man , whose name Is
known to the police , and who Is a gambler.
Her meetings with him were clandestine and
wcro concealed from her friends. Some
times she went to St. Paul and met
him at some restaurant and at other
times she hired a livery rig In the evening ,
and picking him up somewhere drove with
htm. On these occasions lie went out and
returned alone. The man was accustomed
to send notes to her , and the A. D. T. boy
who carried most of them has been foumU
Ho sent her a note which she tore up on
reading. In the evening she hired a rig
as usual , and went out alone. Two hours
later the horse returned to the barn with
the empty buggy. The cushions were soaked
with blood and brains , , The police bellevo
that she went out driving with the St. Paul
gambler , that they quarreled , and that ho
shot her. It Is thought that the shot was
not Instantly fatal , and that he must have
beaten her face with the butt of the re
volver , taken her out of the carriage , and
left her body on the road , driving back to
town and , abandoning the horse , fled. The
motive of the deed Is thought to have been
robbery , as she Is known to have had a
largo sum of ready cash , or It may have
been the result ot a lovers' quarrel.
llrr Dose Did Not Prove Fatal.
Mrs. Franklin waa found at an early hour
this morning behlng the counter of the eat
ing house at 1120 Dodge , kept by herself and
husband , unconscious from the effects of
CS laudanum. She was taken to the station
and restored to earth.
In answer to a query as to the cause of
her anxiety to go beyond she replied :
"Kvcry heart has sorrows of Us own. "
Family trouble Is what the police assign
as the reason.
