tlmt ItlH Wiro'n Fnlllilcim-
ucnn rtolilioil Illin of
Ten years In thn penitentiary Is the pun
ishment that John Kerr must endure for
killing Us wife's father , John Hold , nt Val-
Jey July 1 , 1898. This sentence V.M . pro
nounced 'by ' Judge linker yesterday and
Kerr was remanded to his cell In the county
Jail , from which ho will soon be taken to
Lincoln to begin his decade of existence In-
Blrte the walla of the prison. To the end
Kerr asserted that he did not know what he
was doing when he fired the nhot and he
vohomcntly declared that the misdeeds of
Ills wife drove him to commit the crime.
Kerr was brought Into the court room
rome time before Judge Baker mounted the
1)onoh and ho ppent a quarter of an hour In
earnest conversation with his attorney , A.
number of minor matters were
C. Troup. A
passed on before the Hcntence was reached.
To the question whether he had anything
to say why eontencc should not then bo
passed , Kerr merely shook his head , but Mr.
Troup addressed the court briefly In a plea
for the minimum sentence. Ho reiterated
the opinion that Kerr was so distracted with
Ills troubles that ho did not know what ho
-wan doing on the morning on which the
shooting occurred and called attention to
the fact that , In finding Kcrr guilty of mur
der In he second degree , the Jury had
recommended him to the clemency of the
court. He also stated that ho had a pstltlon
ulgned by nearly all the business men and
citizens of the vicinity of Valley and by
most of the witnesses for the state , In which
the court was asked to Impose the minimum
penalty and emphasized the statement that
tip to this time the life of tha defendant had
been beyond reproach.
In passing sentence Judfse Baker assured
the defendant that It was the province of
the jury to pass on questions of fact and
that It was then the duty of the court to net
In accordance with the verdict. Ho stated
that Kcrr had the benefit of a fair trial and
or it most able defense. While the jury had
decided that ho was responsible for the
crime , ho was forced to conclude that the
murder was partially duo to the trouble that
ho had experienced.
Hero Kcrr broke In with a vehement com
plaint that his wife was the cause of his
trouble. Ho declared that ho had always
believed 1" his wife and when ho was told
that she was untrue to him the discovery
drove him dlstmcted. Ho also said that If
Jils brother , Robert , had been a man of
eound mind ho would never have taken him
to Reid's hotel In the condition of mind that
ho was In at that tlmo and the tragedy
would never have occurred.
Continuing , Judge Baker said that he was
convinced that Kerr was not a bad man at
heart and everything pointed to the fact that
while ho might have known what ho was
doing , his mind was In a very unsettled con
dition when ho committed the crime. In
view of this and of the recommendation of
the Jury and of Kerr's neighbors and fellow
citizens he would give him the minimum
penalty prescribed by the statute , which Is
ton years In the penitentiary.
Kerr made no reply when the sentence was
pronounced and was Immediately token back
to the county jail. It Is understood that ,
elnco the llghtcnt possible sentence has been
secured , Ills attorneys will not appeal the
case to the supreme court.

J 11 duo Powell niNiiilNnrn County At
torney Contest nt CeNt of llelnlnr.
The quo warranto proceedings brought by
Phil E. Winter to test the right of George
W. Shields to hold the ofllco of county at
torney were dismissed at the cost of the
relater t > y Judge * 'Powell yesterday. The
opinion Included an elaborate analysis of
the law In the case , and the reading was
lieard with close attention fcy a large au
dience of attorneys and Interested parties.
'At ' the end Shields did not attempt to con
ceal his delight and he , with some of his
intimate associates , left the court house
vociferously jubilant over his success In
maintaining his grip on the county salary
roll.
roll.In
In his opinion Judge Powell first reviewed
the contentions of the parties as they are
Bet forth In the pleadings. The principal
grounds on which Winter asked for a writ
ot ounter were : That the name of Shields
was printed thrco times on the official bal
lot as the pretended nominee of three dis
tinct and separate political parties , when ,
as a matter of fact , ho was regularly nomi
nated by only ono of these parties : that the
only votes legally cast and entitled to bo
counted for Shields iworo those voted under
the emblem and in the column marked
"Democrat ; " that Shields did not receive
as many votes In this column as Winter
did In the column marked "Republican , "
but that the canvassing board wrongfully
counted as having been cast for Shields the
votes appearing In all three of the columns
In which his name appeared , and that the
oincltxl ballot , as used with reference to the
oflico of county attorney , was void because
the use of Shields' name three times gave
Jilm an unfair advantage over Jils opponent ,
cind that by reason of authorizing the use
ot such a ballot the act of the legislature
under v > hlch the election was held In un
constitutional and void.
In regard to the flrst proposition Judge
( Powell stated that there I * no Nebraska
decision In point. Several decisions In
which It was stated that no candidate was
entitled to have his name printed more
than once on the ofllclnl ballot were given ,
In , connection with the law of 18(11 ( , which
In force before tba
was present law was
passed. Ho quoted , however , from on
obiter dictum In the opinion in the case ot
the state against Allen , In which It was
Btatod that In certain other states It Is clear
that the of each
name candidate should ap
pear on the ballot with the ticket of every
party by which ho has been nominated ,
Bovcral decisions of the supreme courts of
Ihoso states -were cited In support of this
rvlow.
The court Btatcd that his pcieonal Inspec
tion of the ballots had Indicate * ! that there
were J7.D03 ballots cast , of which Shields
received 9.2S5 and Winter S.2C8 , giving
Bhtelds a majority of 967. He then assumed
fhat every elector Is entitled to bcllove that
the ballot Is correct ns ho receives It and
that the officials who prepared It huvo done
( heir duty. Ho added : "It does not appear
from tin Inspection of the ballots , nor from
nny other evidence Introduced or offered ,
that any voter WHS misled or deceived In the
slightest degree by tbo form of ballot uscl
or that ho voted , or that his vote was
counted for nny candidate other than for
those lor whom ho desired to vote , and yet
this court la asked to disfranchise y,207
electors , who , Intelligently and In geol
faith , cast their ballots for Shields , and to
tioclaro Winter elected to this ofllce , "
ThU was followed by the citation of nu-
tneroua decisions relative to the form of
nomination and the court ruled that since
the official ballot used In thla election was
prepared and published at Joist flvo days
before election and the relater had failed to
file any objection until after the- election , bo
was then estopped from complaint ,

CONVICT LOON OF VAGRANCY
JnilKo Gordon Finally Indict * I'mnlly
oil 11 Jinn Who in the Po-
lloc Arrrftt.
At last the police feel that there Is nome
hope for thorn , that the clouds are breakIng -
Ing and that Judge Gordon will do some
thing to help them drlvo out unemployed
wanderers. They have not much to base
this belief upon only the conviction of a
halfiwltted negro , Saturday afternoon , of
vagrancy. For weeks they have been tryIng -
Ing to secure a conviction of some vagrant
so they could say the record bad been
broken ot last. Their efforts were futile
until Detective Crummy ran Into Tom Wil
liams , who was trying to sell some needles
In a Douglas street second-hand storo. Wil
liams declined to tell the officer where he
got Uio needles or to give an account of
himself. Ho also refused to go to the
station , but with the assistance of his blub
the ofllcer persuaded him to "como along. "
When Williams was arraigned he en
tered a plea of not guilty. The olllcer told
of hils experience , and then Williams took
the stand. lie acknowledged that ho was
driven out of Kansas City , where ho had
served a sentence for vagrancy. His
answers 'were ' given In a way that con
vinced the spectators that. If he were not
half-witted ho was so Viloso to It that the
average Insanity commission would never
bo able to detect the difference. He said
ho was willing to work , but had nothing In
vlow. He had no money and no prospects
of getting any. Judge Gordon gave him
ten days In jail to see It ho had wit enough
to figure out some way ot securing em
ployment.
lr. 1'crlii tit the Hotel.
Tomorrow morning Dr. Carl Louis Perln ,
the famous palmist , who Is giving readings
at the Temple of Palmistry , at the exposi
tion , will open parlors on the parlor floor of
the Murray hotel , where he can be consulted
forenoons by these who wish to see htm
without having to go to the exposition
grounds to do so. This move on Dr. Perln's
part has been made on account of the great
call that has been made by peopfe at his
hotel , and who announced that they wished
to see him , but did not bavo the time to
come out to the grounds to do so. Dr. Perln
will give readings at the hotel from 9 a. m.
until noon , and at noon will go to the ex
position grounds and there remain until 10
p. ni. , thus giving all who may wish to see
him , whether exposition visitors or town
people , a chance.
Many people who call upon Dr. Perin say
they believe that his power of reading the
hand is something that others cannot
acquire , and that It Is a gift that he alone
possesses. This statement Dr. Perln refutes ,
for palmistryy Is to him a science of the
purest kind. Dr. Perln Is a graduate ot the
school of occult science of India , nnd thcro
he Teamed that the lines of the hand were
all placed there with a meaning , and that
the ancient occult scholars ot the Orient
bad solved the meaning.

A steamboat ride will have a peculiar In
terest for the people of this city this year
on account ot the high water of a. few-
weeks ago. The force of the flood has
materially changed the appearance of the
river banks and in some places oven the bed
ot the river has shifted. Another object of
interest will be the new railroad construc
tion along the foot ot the bluffs , part of
which was endangered by high water. Much
of the flooded lowlands of East Omaha and
the vicinity of Cut-Off lake and Florence
lake are still under water , there being no
other outlet than evaporation. The steam
boat will make landings at Florence water
works the same OB last year.
