LINCOLN , Aptll 27. ( Special. ) The attor
neys for Commissioners Bullard , Gregory ,
1'cabody and Ilerdman , respondents In the
eno brought by Attorney General Smyth to
otiflt them from their positions as members
of the Fire and Police commleUon ot the city
of Omaha , have filed their brief with the
clerk of the euprcme court.
In arguing tbo cast ) the attorneys for the
respondents Ray the court haa no authority
to even consider a writ of outter. In support
of thU position they cite authorities to show
that while the constitution ot a elate may not
provide for the appointment of a commission
by the governor , the legislature may legis
late upon any subject not inhibited by that
constitution. This they say la not only the
tulo In Nebraska but also the rule In every
tate In the union , with one exception ,
Aa a reason for leaving ; the appointive
power of the Fire and Police commlstloncro
In the hanuH of the governor , the attorneys
lor the respondents contend that It has been
the usual custom In all cities In nearly all
tales tu put the police under the direction
nd In charge of borne board appointed by the
governor or Rome designated state officials
thus taking the force out of local politics and
for the better conduct of Ht > affairs.
It IB contended that firemen occupy the
tame relative positions with reference to their
work aa firemen and that they are lo a meas-
uru state officers. In support of thU conten
tlon , the case of Olllisplc against the City o
Lincoln , reported In Neb. 35-34 , la cited.
Judge Hecse , attorney for complainants , has
been given four days by the supreme court to
fllo final brief hi the carc.

AURORA , Neb. , April 27. ( Special. ) A
most enthuslaa.lc war upl U h B been aroused
hero by the new ? constantly coming from the
east and other points , wnere preparations
The story is told of n young married woman -
man , who asked another young married
woman ho\y she managed to get along so
amicably with her husband. The answer
was , " I feed the brute his stomach with
food and his mind "
with flattery. Even a
man will have to admit that thfi young woman -
man had t.olved about two-thirds of the art
of making the average man happy. The
other third consists of keening his body in
such condition that he will enjoy his food
and his mind in such condition that he will
be susceptible to flattery. It isn't much use
to put tempting food before a man who
hasn't an appetite. It doesn't pay to lavish
amilcs on a man whose nerves are racked
and overworked.
Theavetage man pays very little attention
to his health , and won't take medicine of
bis own accord until he is flat on his back.
A shrewd wife will keep an eye on her hus-
band's welfare in this respect , and when
lie sees that he is bilious or Buffering from
indigestion , or is generally out of sorts , will
ee that he resorts to that roost wonderful

The railways of the state cf Nebraska form
one Industry that Is not objecting very
strenuously to the mobilization of 1he state
troop ® at Lincoln Instead of at Fort Omaha
as d'lrectsd ' by the secretary of war. The
railroad men with ROIQR show of glee
heartily endorse -the gsvornor's action In
having the state troops assembled at Lln-
co'ei , for they aae In such a movement crn-
aUKrablo more travel for their respective
roads than If the troops had been mobilized
at Omaha. As the railroads are getting
prrtty good rates out of the state for thl (
movement of the troops they are wel
pleased with the present order of things
military.
