RMENT'S ' RESOLUTION THE INITIAL STEP
CouiiclliiKMi Tool Their IMMIICH
I'minrnlnry tit Tryliiir to Turning
the rollt'e Koreo of Hie City
Over to the
flint the majority In tlio city council Is
preparing to do Its part In promoting the
schemes of the Churchlll-Huisell combination
was Indicated by the manner In which
Kment's resolution , which provided for an
Investigation of the conduct of the Hoard of
Fire and Police Commissioners , slipped
through at the meeting Tuesday night.
Not one of the ten members who
voted for the resolution but seemed
to understand It perfectly. There
were no requests for Information as
to the purpose or scope of the proposed In
vestigation and the members voted "Aye"
with a readiness that Indicated their entire
familiarity with the subject.
Hut the Information that the members pos-
sessedTucsday night seems to have mysteri
ously disappeared. In speaking of the matter
yesterday not one of the ten members who
voted for the resolution , except Taylor , v.lo ; Is
the- reputed author of It , had the slightest
Idea what was contemplated. According to
their statements , the whole thing Mas a
veritable surprise party to them. They had
never dreamed that such a resolution was
going to be Introduced. They did not know
what purpose It was expected to serve , and ,
with the single exception of I'rlnco , they
admitted that the council had no legal juris
diction over the actions of the Hoard of
Fire ami I'ollce Commissioners. They had
voted for the resolution because they thought
an Investigation might be a good thing on
general principles , but they could not
Imagine what the council would do In case
the Judiciary committee should report that
the commission had not acted properly. In
fact , the statements of the different councilmen -
men were so exactly similar n to indicate
that they had pooled Issue * In advance and
decided that the only safe course would b
to assume the most dense Ignorance cf the
matter.
CUT AND DRIED TODAY.
Councilman Taylor did not know for cer
tain wh'Jt the resolution was Intended .to ac
complish , lie knew that ho was In favor
of a strict civil service system In the police
force , the lire department and the city oIHces.
How this resolution was going to promote
civil service he could not say. He thought
that the men who had been dismissed should
have been given a trial , as they had con
tributed to the police relief fund out of their
salaries. He did not know of any man who
Jiad been discharged for religious or political
reasons , nor did he know of any one who
had been appointed for those reasons. Hut
he was willing to acquire some knowledge
of that description. He did not know what
the council would do If the committee report
should condemn the commissioners.
In regard to the authorship of Kment's
resolution Mr. Taylor preserved a dense
silence. He refused either to admit or deny
that It was written by himself , on the plea
that he was considered a crank already and
If he fathered this resolution it might draw
out additional criticism.
Mr. Kment could not be ssen yesterday , but
he Is said to have the same Interview pre
pared which was given by the other council-
men. Jncobsen says that he was very much
surprised by the Introduction of the resolu
tion. I'rlncc , Jaynes , Gordon and others
were equally overwhelmed. They could not
Imaclne what purpose It could servo or
what It was meant to accomplish. Prince
opined that as a conservator ot the peace
the council had a right < o Inquire Into the
conduct of the police board , but the others
admitted that In their opinion no such right
existed. Gordon was not sure In regard to
this point. He was going to study up the
law on the subject so as to be sure that he
knew all about It before he put himself on
record.
With the exception of Taylor and Gordon ,
all the councllmen denied that the measure
was preliminary to cutting off the salaries
of the menftjers of the board or others. Tay
lor and Gordon studiously refrained from
committing themselves on this point , while
Jaynes declared that while ho thought the
Investigation was all right , ho would not
bo a party to any monkeying with the ap
propriation ordinance.
MEMBERS OP THE COMMISSION TALK.
In regard to the proposed Investigation.
Commissioner Charles H. Ilrown said that
as far as he was concerned he would be
glad to receive the council committee with
duo courtesy , and to answer any questions
which any citizen might ask. Hut so far as
" recognizing the right of the- council
' "I" - to make
kt any ofllclal Investigation was concerned ,
there was no possible ground for supposing
that It had any business to monkey with
the affairs of the board. Ho had no per
sonal knowledge of the politic ! or religion
of any of the men who had been appointed
or discharged. Ho had never voted to dis
charge or appoint any man on account ol
his religious or political faith , and none
of them had ever been called on to say what
that faith might be.
Commissioner Howard I ) . Smith was
equally certain that the council had no right
to make any Investigation of the actlonc
of the board. Such action would be with
out warrant cither of law or precedent. In
regard to the complaints that political rea
sons had Influenced the board In selecting
policemen , Mr. Smith stated that he , and so
far as he knew , no mernber of the board ,
knew whtther the men who had been dis
missed or employed were , republicans , demo
crats or populists. Neither did ho know
what their religious beliefs might be. Ills
vote had certainly never been Inlluenced by
any such consideration.
Chief of Police White said that when ho
came to Omaha he found the police force In
a thoroughly disorganized condition. I'ollce
duty was allowed to go for na-.tgrit , while
the members of the two contending factions
spent their time In watching each other and
creating dissensions which were fatal to dis
cipline. He had talked to the men and had
told them that this sort of thing would not
be countenanced In the future. They were
free to hold to any religious or political faith
they pleased , but discussions nf the matters
would not bo allowed , and any cillrcr
who was discovered agitating the subject
would be peremptorily discharged. Some ol
the officers evidently thought he was Joking
and had paid no attention to the order. Tlu
result was that they had been dismissed ,
The political or religious principles of a "tan
had not been considered In any case. It was
simply a question whether they allowed thes (
beliefs to Interfere with the proper discharge
of their duty and used them to spread dls
tensions In the department.
CHIEF REDELL'S POSITION.
Chief John Redcll ot the fire department
said that the use of his name In the World'
Herald , relative to what course he woulc
pursue If there should be two Hoards of Fin
and Police Commit Metiers In Omaha , was en
tlrely unauthorized. He did not Intend t <
cross a bridge until he came to It and shouK
content himself with attending strictly to thi
business ot the fire department. So far ai
the two-board problem was concerned hi
should consider himself subject to the bean
which was legally In ofllco and would recog
nlze the present officials as long as tlioj
were. In power.

A test of compressed air as a motive
power for rapid transit will shortly bo made
in Baltimore for the purpose of demonstrat
ing the efficiency and comparative cost of
thi.3 means of propulsion. For this purpose
two cars are being built at the shops of
Ryan & McDonald , at Curtis Bay , and It Is
expected they will be completed and ready
for their trial trip next week. Air compressors
pressers for the purpose of charging the
cars are being constructed , and will be
ready at the eame time.
The new cars may make their first trips
on the Baltimore , Catonsvllle & Elllcott City
railway. The experiment may also be made
on the Traction company's line , as In that
event air for the purpose could be com
pressed at one ot the traction company's
power houses without trouble. The new
cars will bo of the ordfhary size and dimen
sions , with the same seating capacity as
those now used. The controlling device for
the motonnen * Is simple and positive In ef
fect , occupying no more platform space than
the ordinary brake handle. All the other
mechanism Is under the car floor. In pro *
cess ot operation the air Is compressed to
from 1,000 to 2,000 pounds per square Inch
and stored In the station tank. With suffi
cient storage capacity In the station , the
time occupied In charging the car , either
automatically or by hand device , need not
take more than halt a minute.
The storage capacity of the seamless steel
flasks or containers , In the car Is sufficient to
operate the car from twelve to fifteen miles
or moro , according to the pressure.
After passing through a reducing valve
and being Jowered to whatever Is de
sired as a working pressure , the air Is cir
culated through hot water , and the mixture
of heated air and vaporized water misses to
the motors , working expansively. The mi-
chanlcal features of the motors are sub
stantially * Identical with those of a steam
locomotive. It Is said the manipulation ol
the car Is simplicity Itself , that It Is noise
less , and operates without jars or jerks ,
and U under perfect control at all times.
As great a rate of speed as desired may be
attained , and , besides , compressed air as a
motive power Is said to stand at the head ol
the list as far as economy Is concerned ,

BALDWIN-BURTCASEBEFOREJUDGEKEYSOR

AVI ( hi a Tuc-nty Ia > M.
The. foreclosure suit of Baldwin against
Hurt Is to be given another round In th6'dis
trict court. Some 300 defendants , who have
been anxiously waiting for an opportunity
to make a contest , were this morning granted
the right to do so by Judge Keysor.
This suit during Its pendency In the dis
trict court for the last half dozen years has
become very complicated. It has several
times been up for hearing before the supreme
court and each time rulings have been made
by that body which so perplexed attorneys
that It Ins been a bone of contention among
them for weeks past to determine Just what
the supreme court did decide. Some claimed
that the supreme court declared that the
suit was to be sent back to district court
for the purpose of finding nut > vhat the
"equities" or rights of the various defend
ants were and so settling the Interests of the
various parties In the reel estate. Others
argued that the supreme court held that the
.case must come back for the purpose of
entering up a judgment In favor of Eunice
Ualdwln against the several hundreds of
Omaha cltUens , who -In times gone by had
bought lots lying In West Side , Hlmebaugh's
and Wakeley's additions , against which the
mortgage In question now being foreclosed
was afterward set up.
Judge Keysor decided the case yesterday ,
declaring that the best he could do was to
make a guess and lean to the side of justice
In doing so. Ho consequently declared that
all these people , who have had various mo
tions on file , asking for the privilege to con
test the Ilaldwin mortgage , have the right to
do so , providing they file answers within the
next twenty days. The land In controversy
Includes some hundreds of acres In the west
ern , portion of the city , and beyond the city
limits.
Shi-oley 1'iirlsh How
From a contest for the possession of a
louse of worship among the Polish parish-
oners of Sheeley station , the legal controversy
which was waged last summer along this
Ine has shifted to new grounds , and the
Poles are now fighting for money.
St. Paul's Polish Church society has en-
: ered the county court with a pstltlon , de
manding $109 from John KowalewskI and
tils two bondsmen , J. Nelson and Markus
Faller , who , with KowalewskI , signed an
appeal bond In the sum of $200 for the pur
pose of staying a Judgment rendered last
summer In Cockrell's Justice court ejecting
the faction known as St. Paul's church
from Sheeley church and paisonage site" , sit
uated In lot 13 , block D , Summit addition.
The appeal was taken , the bond signed ,
and the St. Paul faction continued all sum-
mcr to hold the church. So bitter did the
fight become that Judge Scott commenced
proceedings against Hlshop Scannsll , claiming
that the court had been brought Into con
tempt.
Liter on the Polish church was burned
to the ground , and the present case , ap
pealed from Justice court , was affirmed. The
defendants , who have now been sued on
thalr bond , for holding the property and
collecting the rents , failed to make any
defense. . . _
LiMMler Won IIlH Knit.
The fire and police commissioners were
marshalled In Justice Smith's court to combat
the claim of ex-Fireman Ed. Leeder for ? 4G.
The judgment nevertheless went against the
city. Leedt.-'s case was one of forty-five ,
his being the ( fi-t suit. For two weeks last
summer during July nnd August firemen
were laid off. The city refused to allow
them to go away from Omaha , though they
were not on duty. The Justice holds the
fire and police commission liable. Members
explained that they suspended the men to
accumulate money to be used In buying more
engines. _

It has been known for some months that
Sam Payne , the murderer of Maud Ilubal , has
been developing more and more Into an
Imbecile , harmless , but vacant-minded. The
evidences of mental Imb.c llty have progressed
so far that Payne's attorneys will make an
effort to place the convicted man In the
Insane asylum , taking him from the penitentiary
'
tentiary , where he Is serving a life 'sentence.
In the meantime the appeal of the Pcyne
case will continue , as Payne's attorneys ex
press the hope to clear him yet of the guilt
of Maud Kubel's death.

Some time ago Albert SJoberg of Omaha
Invented a machine for registering votes
and filed an , application for a patent at
Washington. A short time previous Doug
hs Dobbins of Indianapolis filed an applica
tion for a patent on a similar machine and
still later John Dlocher of Franklin Grove ,
III. , came forward with the third application
for a patent on a voting machine. When
the patent office took up the matter It was
found that the essential part of each ma-
chlno was the same. The three Inventors
working Independently of each other had In
corporated In their machines the same
mechanism for locking all other keys when
the straight party key was pressed down
by the voter.
When two or more parties have
filed an application for a patent
on the same Idea , tha man who
first thought out and put Into drawings
or constructed a model , is .the one entitled
to the patent. Such cases are known at the
patent offices as Interferences.
In the present case an Interference was
declared at the patent office and during the
past few days H. W. Pennock has been
taking testimony In Omaha as to when Al
bert SJoberg Invented his machine. Testi
mony will be taken at the homes of the
ether claimants and then the whole will
bo submitted to the patent office , to betaken
taken Into consideration. The testimony
taken at Omaha will cover about 150 printed
pages , so that some Idea may bo gained as
to what It costs to contest a patent.
The present case Is one of great Importance ,
as the successful claimant will be able to
exact a royalty on every voting machine
that may bo manufactured.

Mrf. II. C. Uawkrsworth of 1219 North
Twentieth street , Is { foiling for her sister ,
whom the thinks baa eloped with cue of
several lovers.
The girl In question U Helen Pruyne.
Helen Is but 16 years old and has been
making her homo with : Mrs. Hawkcaworth for
several years. She lai a very pretty girl ,
bright , has an amldbla disposition and a
number of ardent lovers among the young
men of her acquaintance. Mrs. Hawkes-
worth had noticed for ionic time that Helen
was evincing a disposition to spend too
much of her time In the company of young
people and of late had been much from homo
on excursions and picnics. The one source
of satisfaction to the married sister was that
Helen did not seem to be partial In the
distribution of her favors , but had quite a
number' ' of young male frl/nds and seemed
to treat them all alike.
A few days ago Mrs. Hawksworth re
monstrated with the girl and sought to dis
suade her from giving up so much of her
time to the demands of her circle of friends.
The girl at first seemed to resent the Inter
ference with her plans for a good time this
summer and insisted upon having all the
tun she could get out of her opportunities.
On Sunday evening Helen went to the park
with a party ot young friends and as she did
not return at the agreed hour Mrs , Hawkcs-
worth naturally became anxious about her.
She finally took a seat on the front porch
and waited for the girl's return , Intending
to have It out with the young man who would
keep a girl out until such an unseemly
liour. It was after midnight when Helen re
turned homo and she came back with a
young man who had not appeared on the
scene before , a different lover from the
ono with whom she had gone to the park.
The young man was dismissed with scant
ceremony and Mrs. Hawkesworth sat down
and had a long talk with Helen. The girl
seemed very tractable and penitent and finally
[ iromlsed that she would forego her pleasures
and bpend her time at home , except when
she hsil permission from her sister to go
out for an evening. All day Tuesday Helen
was at home and made herself especially
agreeable to her sister and the family and
cheerfully discharged her share of the house
hold duties. When she was ready to retire
last night she asked that her sister call her
early this morning , as sha wanted to go
with Mrs. Hawkesworth to the market. This
was premised and the girl bade all of the
members of the family an over affectionate
good night and retired to her room.
When Mrs. Hawkeaworth went to call
Helen yesterday morning she was astonished
and alarmed to discover that the girl was not
In her room. Her bed had not besn occupied.
An opeh window and lootprlnts In the sand
outside the house showed how the girl had
left her home. Mrs. Ilawkesworth Immedi
ately notified the police and asked their as
sistance In locating the missing girl. She
Is of the opinion that Helen has foolishly
left her home to elope with one of her young
friends , but she has no suspicion as to which
one of her boy lovers Is likely to be mixed
up in the case.

The Jolly I'fiiiint.
Peanuts are very hardy members of the
potato family. They actually thrive better
in poor soil than rich. They grow deep In
the ground , burying themselves near the
roots of the parent stem. Their uses are
many and Important. There Is the peanut
soup , with which Prussia feeds her army.
There Is the rich oil-made from the peanut.
There are the husks of th'e nuts , which are
considered just the thing for fattening hogs.
And there Is the dried foliage , which Is a
sort of hay and which so Interests live stock
that cows are perfectly willing to break
through ten-rail fences In order to reach It.
The effect 'of Ine peanut hay on the cow Is
something like the charm that 9atnlp has
for grimalkins. Down In 'the farsBouth the
old darkles enjoy nothing , so much as a mess
of pounded peanuts vn\ molasses , which
they call a "fry. " And the peanut makes
about three-fourths ot the circus and fully
one-half of Fourth of July.
That the jolly peanut Is as profitable as
nutritious there can be no ddubt In the mind
cf the man who has seen Orchard Homes
and the succulent ground fruit there grown.
The peanut crop Is raid to average In Vir
ginia from seventy to eighty bushels and
acre ; at Orchard Homes and In Its vicinity
the average is from 150 to 200 bushels an

SAVE THE BABY'S ' LIFE ,
Babies Take Lactatcd Food
with Evident Relish ,
Safety for Palo , Weak , SioKly
Babies in Hot Weather.
A I'orfevt SuliMllutc for Healthy ,
VlKoroiiM MoHicr'M Mlllc
To the thoughtful parent hot weather brings
the consciousness of Increased care niul fore
thought regarding the diet of tlio llttlo ones.
It Is appalling to anyone understanding the
subject to see the carelessness of parents
and nurses In the matter of Infant feeding.
With cholera Infantum raging ns It Is cast
and west this summer , these facts cannot
bo put to parents too plainly.
This mortality Is not n necessary evil , for ,
ns every single writer on the subject ( from
the eminent tr. ) Hotith , to whom every physi
cian turns for advice , down to the honest
medical student , whose opinions sec tlio llghl
In the popular medical journals ) agrees. It
arises principally from the Improper feeding
of children.
Watch your baby's actions carefully , es
pecially at this season of the year so trying
to little children. Is he cross , fretful or pee
vish ? Is ho troubled with constipation , colic
or diarrhoea ? Is his sleep short or easily
broken ? Then his food disagrees , and ho Is
In serious danger of fatal disease.
"What can I do ? " we hear you ask.
Change at once to lactated food , n pure and
scientific food that makes the sick baby well
and keeps the healthy child hearty and
strong , even In summer's dangerous weather.
The best physicians prescribe It , Intelligent
mothers recommend It and use It , and bs-
bles living on It prove Its wortl
by their healthy and happy faces. The
worry and sadness It keeps awny
Is nlono sufficient reason for using lactated
food ; but It Is also very economical , costing
less than flvo cents a , quart , when prepared
from the larger sizes. The small size costs
only 25 cents , and will be mailed on receipt
of price by the manufacturers , Hlchardson
Wells , Hlchardson & Co. , Burlington , Vt. If
your druggist hasn't It In stock , do not lei
the sun go down before you Imve ordered
some. It may save the baby's life.
The mother's milk In 'the summer Is af
fected by the heat , and Is often dangerous
for the Infant. It Is much safer to wean
the child nnd put It upon this reliable food
that Is always the same.
