Commissioner Ostroii pro- cldtd aril the resolution wa3 adopted by the Lommlttco after fully two hours ot discussion , The board will meet In regular session to day to adopt the resolution as unani mously recommended by thu committee of tut w hnlc. The preamble of the resolution quotes the petition recently submitted by more than 1,000 voters and the fact ( bat a government and stain appropriation of more than $200,000 IKU bi-cn made , as required by the law.

Prof. F W Taylor , superintendent of the Bureau of Agriculture , Hortlcultuie , For estry and Irrlgitlon of thu Dcpirtmcnt of Exhibits ot the exposition , has ic. turned from the Nashvlllu exposition , where he went to secure a number of conventions to meet next ) eir in Omaha. He stated jes- tcrdn ) that one of thu things that stiuck lilm most foiclbly while there was the famlllarltv of the people of Nashville with the conditions In connection with the Transmlsslsblppl Exposition. "They know wo are going to have an exposition next year , " said Prof. To ) lor , "and they know- nil about it I had dozens ot people to say to me that If their exposition had been as well advertised as the TransmLsslsslppl Ex position Is being exploited all over the coun try they would be having a much larger at tendance. They say that the Tranamlsslsslppl Exposition Is better known How than theirs vvas at the time the gates were opened. ' "Nashville Is making great preparations for Nebraaha day , " continued the profetor. "They siy thoj are going to glvo Ne- braskaus a sample of MJUthein hospitality on that occabloii and I should judge from all Indications I saw that the whole country Vlll bo dv.od a bright scarlet. Major Thomas , president of the exposition , told mo that they were making i-vtetmlve preparations to liavo Nebraska dav one of the red letter das of the entire exposition. "Onu of the principal things which at tracted mv attention In connection with the agricultural part of the Nashville exposi tion , " remarked Prof. Talor "was the quality of tjic exhibits made by the various railroads. There were live roads having ex hibits of the agricultural and mining prod ucts along their lines. These were ariaiigcd in an attractive wa ) and eaeh road must have expended at least $5,000 In making Its display. The Nashville , Chattanooga & St. Ijouls roail was the only one of the flvo having headqiui teiti In Nashville , and I he- cured an application for 11,000 feet of space for a display to be made by this road I expect to secure similar applications from the other roads , and If I suceecd , Tenncssen \vlll bo well represented.

HARVEST FOR THE LAWYERS Wheels of Justice Arc Acnta Revolving After the Cummer's Vacation , OPENING OF SEPTEMBER TERM OF COURT CM II Dni'Uct Slionn nn Incrcnnc In i urn nn Coinpiirctk Tvlth Lnut Term .Not nu 'MmU Crltiilnul UN I'onncrlj. The September term of the district court was formally opened yeiterday and the corridors of the court house were crowded with the usual concourse of attorneys , wit nesses and jurors. The wheels of Justice commenced to grind very slowly , the entire morning being used up In empaneling the Jury and In going through the calls In the various civil court rooms. Judges Uaker , Powell , Slabaugh , Scott and Kcjsor opened the dockets In their respective court rooms at JO o'clock. Judge Favvcctt Is In Hurt county and will hold court there until the first part of next month. Judge Dickinson will not open his court until this morning. In all the court rooms the work was of a preliminary character. There are 1,473 civil cases to be tried during the term , a considerable Increase over the work that confronted thu last term of court , when there were 1,353 cases. The criminal court will have fewer cases to look after , the number being 216 , against .27 last terra. A beginning upon this vv'ork ' will bo mnde by a jury of seventy men. empaneled yesterday. The venlro con tained 120 names , but fifty of the jurors succeeded In presenting excuses that were considered satisfactory to exempt them from service. In the criminal court yesterday the county attorney nollud the case of obtain ing money under false pretenses against lj. A. BrandholTer and Albert F. Maine , a case of forgery against L. A. Biandhotfer , a case of rand laueti ) against Will Thomp son , a case of assault against Ed O'Conne-r and a case of larceny from the person against Stella Green. The bond ot Ida Mitchell , bound over to the district court on the charge of larceny from the person , was forfeited , as the defendant had fled fiom the city. The bond was signed by J. F. Lally. Geoige W. Morgan , the convicted mur derer of little Ida Gasklll. Is sentence 1 to meet his doom on Friday , October 8 , and he hss about made up his mind that on th'at day he must hang Vet he gives no out ward signs of worrlng over the matter. He Is seemingly unconcerned over the near approach of the day. Thu casu has passed bcond the Jurisdiction of the district court. Sheriff McDonald will go to Lincoln this week , probably on Wednesday , to see the governor In order to learn whether he is likely to Intervene. Jt Is not generally be lieved that Governoi Holcomb will Inter fere with the execution. Moigan hlmsult has no buch hope and his counsel , Attorney Patrick , does not bellcvo that there will bu any further delay In the execution. If Sheriff McDonald Is given to understand that the hanging will not be fuither post poned he will at once upon his return tike steps toward the erection of the scaffold. A good many people visited the court house grounJ.s last week and called to Mor gan , asking him. "How he liked It ? " Mor gan responded that he was worrlng over his case considerably less than the people on the outside of the jail.
