It was no Idle threat on the jiart of Harry
C. Mil lor when he recently said the Molse-Tanning-Miller
taction of the local dem
ocracy would not recognize the recent olec
tloti of a new county committee. These
democrats and their adhcrenta have acee;ited

By the authnrltj placed In me 1 now
call the democratic county central onm
inltt'e tocether to ni Ht the board of
trade roomf. corner of Sixteenth and
1'arnum streets. Omaha, al I p tn.. Mon
day. July H for the purpose nr maklnc
iieeeiwir arrangements for calling the
county convention to nominate county o.tl-c-r
and transact any other bustnees that
may richlly come before It
1 take this opportunity of stating to the
committee and the democrats of Douglas
county the following facts relative to the
trouble that now exists In the ranks of our
jmrt y .
Two years ago. when the democratic
nominating con vent Ion. was hold, a demo
cratic county central committee tva elected
to hold for two years, therefore the term
of this committee does not expire until
the county convention held for a like pur
pose as the one ubove mentioned meets
ti.culii this fall.
Disregarding this rule that has always
governed the democrats of this countt.
and in fHt-t of every county In the state of
Nebraska, the Inst county convention,
tvhlch was jn everv respect illegally held,
instead of using its best endeavors to
tiring harmoav into the party and fix up
th differences that already existed by pro
posing some kind of a compromise between
the delegation that th central oommittee
liad selected to go to the state convention
and the one elected by the county con
vention, sought to still further widen the
breach that exists In the ranks of the dem
ocratic party tttid tool; upon Itself the
power to elect a new county central com
mittee, and unless the promoters of this
unlawful scheme recede frnm their posi
tion serious disaffection will come to our
Party.
I.ntr Contention Illegal.
1 am awure that on one occasion lr the
past a county convention called together
for the purpose of sending delegates to a
f-tiite convention did elect a county central
committee, but they had no legal or moral
ground upon which to base their action tn
doing so. and had their authority ben
questioned at the time the democrats of
Inuglas county would not have tolerated It
This committee as at present organized
lias a record second to none that has ever
existed in Douglas county It can refer
with pride to the results of its adminis
tration, namely. Control of the countj
board, sheriff, treasurer, county attorney
nnd clerk of the courts, and then, to be
unlawfully thrown nut of office simply be
cause a few would-be leaders desire to
control the party machinery this fall is an
outrage, that will not, in my judgment, be
submitted to by the members of this com
mittee. When the nrimarles are held this fall frr
the purpose of elertlng delegates to the
county convention, the committee matter
chairmanship, secretaryship, etc.. can be
made a subject for discussion, and then
jf the parties who manaced the county
convention last' Saturday su6ceed in win
ning out the members of the present com
mittee win dve them their sincere and un-;
qualified support
If uny reasonable democrat can show me
here a county convention called together
for the purpose of sending delegates to a
Ftate convention has any authority for in
terfering with county matters. 1 will be
pleased to see it, but it cannot be done
And 1 now state to Mr Howell that I am
chalrmui. of the Douglas county demo
cratic centruJ committee, and that the com
mittee over which 1 have the honor of
presiding is the legal oommittee and that
they and 1 will hold our offices until such
time as a properly constituted body de
clares otherwise
On account of the great Importance of
this meeting 1 most urgently request every
member of the regular committee to be
present on the date and at the place men
tioned herein. Respectfully fours.
C E FANNING. Acting Chairman.
W. H. GUNSOLVS, Secretary
Harry C. Miller declares a majority of
the old committee will recognize Fanning
as chairman and respond to his call. Down
in South Omaha the Molbe following, which
is especially strong, will, it is aald, hold an
indignation meeting soon to protest against
the usurpation of the last county conven
tion. 3!nlftc Gmt Forced Oat.
Meantime, ut last cventng'fc meeting of
the County Democracy the. resignations of
Harry Miller, Walter Molse and Charles E.
Tanning T ere read and accepted. This was
in pursuance of action taken at the last pre
ceding meeting, when action on a refolu
tlon for tbelr expulsion -was deferred to af
ford them an opportunity to resign. In
the interim these three men had been noti
ced by letter from Secretary Hart that
charges, the nature of which was not stated,
had been preferred against them. To fore
utall drastic action the three sent In their
resignations. Members of the club say that
the resignations of Fanning and Molse were
brief and courteous, but that Miller's let
ter, was decidedly defiant. He is reported
to have written that for President Uddell
and Secretary Hart and for many members
of the club be entertained the proloundest
regard, but that for some members of
the organization, meaning L. J. Platti and
his lieutenants, he entertained the most
supreme contempt and would fight them
ithn the party lines whenever occasion
hould present.
When the resignation of Miller was read.
W. H. Gunsolus, who has been one of the
firm adherents of the Molse fartlon moved
that it be laid upon the table, but his mo
tion was decisively defeated, all voting to
accept hut five out of tw-enty-flve. The same
routine was repeated in the coses of Molse
end Tanning and in the latter instance
Gunsolus supplemented his motion with a
strong protest against action Irtended to
drive democrats out. He said he had al
ways been a democrat and voted the dem
ocratic ticket since the days of Tilden'fc
candidacy for president, except when Ed
Howell ran for mayor, when he voted for
Trank E. Moores, for reasons which Howell
well knew.
T. M. Franse, chairman of the democratic
county committee of Cuming county, was
presented and spoke of the political con
ditions In tbtt county, and Dan Hurley, a
student of Crelghton college, gave a recita
tion. According to good authority, the numerous
domestic infelicities of the democracy prom
ises to result In the organization of a third
democratic club in Omaha in the immediate

AMUSEMENTS...
"Man and Slnster"
The producnon of the se-ond drama In
the first week of the summer engagament 1
of the Redmond S:ock company was ac-
compllshed at Boyd s thester Thursday
night under auspices at once BU"cessful and '
flattering successful from the viewpoint of
the large audience and flattering to the
members of the company and Manager Bear
as well.
Should one gauge the merit of a dramatic
production from the favorable impression
it creates the hearty reception accorded
"Men and Master." and the careful, con
scientious, painstaking principals in the
cast, would entitle it to nigh rank. .The
piece itself Is not a particularly strong
dramatization. It is so constructed, how
ever, that the thread of interest is re
tained throughout and there Is a rufflclent
continuity of plot, thrilling at times, to
arouse more than a passive feeling. There
is in it intrigue and machination, but the
finale Is all that could be desired, with a
triple measure of the "married and lived
happily ever after' conclusion.
The members of the company all appeared
perhaps to better advantage than in th;
first piece of the repertoire, Mr. Redmond
and Mist Whipple doing particularly pra.se-
,,.,,,. v,
worthy work In the leading roles.
The Introduction of specialties between
the acts continues a most acceptable inao
vation. Mme. Dollle Rathburn Cheslcy.
Omaha's new and justly popular soprano,
was tendered a reception and an encore of
which she might U feel pardonably
proud. Her rich, pure soprano voice de
lighted the audience and her chrmlag
stage presence won high favor. Owing to
the Introduction of the specialties the pro-
gram Is lengthened somewhat and for this
reason the curtain will rise on subsequent
performances promptly at E:!0.

ECHO OF A CHRISTIAN SCIENCE CASE
Mr. Stone Cndrm ort to l'rof Denial
of Professional Scrtlre to Hate
Ileen nn Indication of
Innntilt;
Mrs. Jeremiah Sedgnlik as called bclcre
? ; the Board of Insanity Commissioners yestcr-
4 day to prove whether or not she is of sound
mind and a safe person to remain at Urge.
; i Tbt complaint as to Mrs. Sedgwick's canity
vas filed by Dr. Stone, who was prcbcct ta
1 support his side cf the case. Dr. Stone's
J ; thurge Is that Mrs. Sedgwick refused ta ai
1 ' low a medical man to make an examination
of cer husband's condition immediately fol
tlsts and backed by an array of legal tales:
provided by law. The statute is strict oa
this joiut, the attorney affirmed, In order
that innocent persons may not be subject
to the annoyance of appearing- in public to
prove their sanity.
Commissioner Kaley of the Board of In
sanity Commissioners answered that no phy
sician would be competent to judge of a
tcrson's sanity by a casual examination
and that the discretion w wholly vested in
the board. The motion of the defense tor a
dismissal was overruled and the trial pro
ceeded with Dr. Stone, the complainant, on
the stand.
Testimony of Mr. Chndttlck.
The testimony of Clarence Chadwick, one
of the leaders of the Christian Science
faith in the city, was the most sensational
of the afternoon.
"Mr. Chadwick, what is your business?"
Inquired Dr. Stone.
"I rely upon God." replied the witness..
"Suppose you saw a man lying with hU
skull crushed with the bones pressing upon
the brain what would you do?"
j t would offer up prayer to Almighty God
for his restoration to true consciousness."
"Would you summon a surgeon?"
"No, sir. 1 would not."
Continuing. Mr. Chadwick said that if hit
method did not yield results he would con
sent to professional attendance, if such
were the wish of the patient.
Dr. F. E. Coulter and Dr. J. M. Aiken
then took the Hand to reply to a hypothet
ical question.
"If a woman were called from her house."
propounded Dr. Stone, "by the report that
ber husband had met with an accident, if
she found him lying unconscious with blood
issuing from mouth, nose and ears; if she
said in reply to the offer of assistance from
a physician. 'He does not need a doctor,
leave him with his God.' would not such
conduct constitute an insane act?"
Both of the professional men were of the
opinion that it would.
Upon the cross-examination, however, the
defense partly nullified this point by bring
ing out the physicians opinion that anyone
might have acted similarly under street of
strong excitement.
Mone Defend His Courr.
Dr. Stone took the stand lo explain hit
freedom from any antmus in 'bringing the
complaint. He had not prosecuted Mr.
Sedgwick hecaus- of her religious views, assessors, amounted in the entire county

"No." responded Dr. Stone, "I am a I of which forty were acted upon and ten

"Do you "know of any Christian who be-
lleves in the inspiration
n of the Scriptures
in the efficacy of
who does not beliete
prayer?"
Dr. Stone admitted that he did not.
"Is it not a fact." asked the attorney,
"that Mrs. Sedgwick was simply exercising
her faith In the manner of otber Chris-
Uans?"
Dr. Stone believed that other mraturte
besides prayer were necessary when a hu-
man life was at stake.
At the conclusion of the testimony there
was an impassioned speech for the defease
by L. W. Richardson and a statement of
hit view of the case by Dr. Stone.
The board took the matter under advlte-
meat and a decision will be rendered this
corning.
HEAT BRINGS ON INSANITY
Jail and Countj- Hospital Filled ttith
Patient No Room nt Mate
Institution.
The sheriff's office has been deluged with
insanity compUints during the last few
weeks and the increase is attributed by the
insanity commissioners to the extreme hot
u.enTher a rnr-wnpr snprnr viwer pa
twenty-five patients on hlE hands, the Ove
crowded condition of the Lincoln and
Hastings asylums making it impossible to
accommodate those seeking admittance
The patients are being cared for either at
the county jail or the county hospital until
tions. Some of these charges will probably
draw support from the county until the new
wing of the Lincoln asylum Is completed.
Although the sheriff has warrants at ad
mission for each of his charges he is under
instructions to take no insane patient
Lincoln until he has a special notice from
the superintendent. One of these permits
has arrived In the case of Flora Tell xnd
Sheriff Power conducted her to Lincoln this
tfternoon. The girl was taken from a Ninth
street disreputable house in a frenzied con
dition and has since been a cause of anxiety
to attendants at the county hospital. One
afternoon she escaped from her room and
, ran amuck among the other Inmates, wield

lng a slippsr, which left the imprint of Its
heel upon the heads of patients and attend
ants alike. The girl ha6 no known rela
tives or friends, her only possession being
a trunk full of tawdry finery. Bbe was
granted admittance to the asylum because
of her violent condition.
A deputy sheriff will go to Lincoln to
day with Mrs. Mary Thrane, whose con-
i dltlon also demands immediate attention.
The commissioners hatr also under lnsper:-
tlon the case of Amanda Denton, a colored
?rJ woman confined in the county jail. Mrs.
Denton presented her baby to a group of
north side urchins and then made a violent
attack upon a policeman. The board Is
likewise concerned regarding Anson Ebey.
