Omaha gamblers had fallen out umong
tlv.'tnsolvcs and had begun to prosecute ono
another. Ho wld: "In view of a state
ment of tho county attorney not long ago,
to tho effect that gamblers of South Omaha
havo formed a trust to ensure greater and
exvluslro profltn, It rccms to bo a
blessing that thoy havo fallon out with ono
another.
"Tho attorneys for tho defense complain
that Sherman und Jorgeson, who are ad
mittedly behind tbo prosecution In the case,
have singled out Derlln alone to press
chargen against. If theso men have se
lected Berlin to wield tho cudgel on It
Deems to bo a pretty good thing for tho
public It will bo bettor still If these mon
contlnuo to disagree among thcmsolves to
tho extent not only of breaking tho trust,
but of broiklng thcmsolves. If Sherman
and Jorgcnon will proscculo Horlln and so
euro a conviction, thou get after soino of
tho other gamblers, hoc urn convictions and
then complain against each other thoy will
furnish tho courts with u good deal of ovl
donco that It scorns wo nro unabto to obtain
in any other way. I have found from tho
ovldenco in this caso that thero Is presuma
ble cause of Berlin's guilt, so I will bind
kirn over to tho district court, placing the
bonds at ?500, tbo same- amount In which
ha won hold to appear here."
Testimony Aafaluat llerlln.
Among others who testified against Der
lln during tho morning was Myron Sher
man of tho firm of Sherman & Jorgeson,
who admitted that ho Is behind the prosecu
tion. His testimony was not different than
that of suvnral other witnesses, among
them being Ucorgo Victor, an employe of
C. U. I.Ivor & Co., doalers In saloon sup
plies, and Albert Jorgoson, tho Bocond mem
nor of tho Arm mentioned. Victor said that
ho sold chips to bo used in tho gambling
operations to llerlln on a number of occa
sions. Jorgeson said ho was In the gam
bling rooms several times when games were
being played, and had oven taken a hand
In thorn. When It enmo to the arguments of
tho attorneys thosa who represented Der
lln emphasized tho contention that although
It had been proved gambling had been car
ried on In the building whero Derlln's sa
loon 1b, thero had been no proof that Ber
lin waa actually tho proprietor.
FIGG NOW SEES NEW LIGHT
Leader of Htranire Cult Haa Tardy In
apt rat Inn to Make Defense la
Case Now Concluded.
Tho latest command which Lewis It. Flgg
of Gretna assorts ho has received from
heaven will causo tho courts of Sarpy
county a vaBt amount of trouble. Flgg has
served tho court with notice that a bidding
long withhold by the Lord .has finally been
delivered and In consequence he Is '.now
ready, with tho permission of heaven, to
tie heard In a caso that was settled at the
last torm of court. Flgg'a latest Idea of
tho divine guidance will necessitate a re
hearing In tho case It ho can persuade, the
court to ruin favorably on his motion to sot
aside tho former Judgment.
Tho case Is ono growing out of tho tar and
feathering escapade that took place, with
Flgg In u loading rolo, sovonil months ago.
Flgg had John R. Woods arrested for com
plicity In tho prococtltng, but tho court bo
foro which tho ovldenco was brought al
lowed Woods' release. Woods then brought
suit against Flgg to recover $2,600 damages
because of falso Imprisonment. Tho caso
camo up beforo Judgo Slabaugh. Flgg waa
summoned to appoar beforo the bench, but
ho told tho court that ho hod beon given a
command by tho Lord not to mako any do
fonso. Judge Slabaugh gavo notice that ho
would postpono tho hearing for .throe days
to glvo Flgg time to get a now command
and as there was no new developments
when tho days of grace wore up, his honor
heard the tostlmonr of the plaintiff and
awarded Judgmont against Flgg In the sum
of $500.
Flgg has now Informed the court that the
Lord appeared In a dream and told him to
mako a dofonso In the caso. For this pur
pose ho has served notice that he will move
for an order of tho court setting aside tho
Judgment awarding Woods $600. Judge
Slabaugh will go to Sarpy county to hold
court Monday. He expects to complete the
call and roturo Wednesday.

DAY OF REMITTED FINES COMES TO AN END
Judge Learn Collects In One Month
Sum DquitllliiK Trro-Tlilrdu at
Tribute Levied tr Uor
don In a Year.
Tho sort of Justice which William Learn
dealt out as police Judgo during the month
of November yielded the city an Income of
J601, or two-thirds as much as Judgo S. I.
Gordon collected during the entire year
of 1S99, tho receipts for last year having
been $908. During last November tho
Board of Education received the sum of
$53 from lines and costs collected In police
court. Judgo Learn has Increased that
amount ten-fold and nobody seems to be
tho worse for any lack of mercy, tho screen
behind which Judgo Gordon sheltered all
his shortcomings.
Members of tho Board of Education,
Mayor Moorofl and tho police department
aru delighted with tho change which has
been brought about In the police court.
The day of suspended sentences and the
remission of fines is a thing of history, and
tho officers now have somo Incentive to
land law-breakers behind tho bars. After
niaklni? several thousand arrests In 1899
tho pollco department could point to only
170 convictions where Ones were collected
and tho average amount of fines and costs
collected from these persons was only a
little moro than 15.
Judge Gordon's record for 1899 was much
worse than for former years, but during no
year slnco ho assumed the police Judgeship
has ho mado on cnvlablo record. In No
vember of 1898 tho fines and costs aggre
gated $112, or nearly twlco as much ns
for tho corresponding month of 1899. Dur
lng November of 1897 the Board of Educa
tlon received $149.60 from the pollco court
and In November of 1893 tho amount was
$222.60.
During every year of Judge Gordon's
servlco tho receipts of tho police court
dwindled. Last year the nmount turned
over to tho Board of Education waB so
ridiculously small that the members of the
board determined to mako an Investigation
and succeeded In deposing Judgo Gordon.
William Learn was appointed to fill the
vacancy and the changes which ho has
brought about romlnd the Board. of Educa

ROADS STILL UNRECONCILED
Those of Limited Mllensic Cannot
Convert More Important Lines
to Their Views.
Major J. R. Buchanan, general passenger
agout of tho Elkhorn, returned yester
day from Chicago. Ho went over Thurs
day night to uttend a specially called
meeting of tho Wostern I'asBenger assocla
tlon to consider tho Interchangeable mllo
age problem In tho transmlssourl territory.
Arriving in Chicago, ho found that his col
leagues had decided to postpone tho meet
ing of the Wostern Passenger association
and Join n callod meeting of the Transcon
tlnontal association, to tako up the Epworth
league rate matter. Major Buchanan left
tho passenger representatives of tho other
Omaha lines In Chicago and camo home, be
cause his line has no Interest in the ques
tlon of rates for the Epworth league, since
the convention will be held in California
and the Elkhorn Is not actively tn the field
for California business.
In regard to the adoption of a system of
Interchangeable mlleago for transmlssourl
roads, the opinion is held by well Informed
railroad men that plans more feasible than
those already suggested must be presented
Tho trouble In disposing of tho matter sat
isfactorily seems to bo the Irreconcilable
difference between the interests of roads
with large mileage, spreading out over the
entire transmlssourl territory, and thoso
with limited mileage, tapping only a small
territory. The Interests of tbo former
would bo served by having no Interchange
whatever, while tho latter are anxious for
the freest posslblo exchange
Tho strong roads want tho old mileage
book form of ticket adopted; the weaker
ones Insist upon tho Interchangeable cer
ttflcato torm now In uso In western and
southwestern territory, which does not re
quire the user to expend In the first In
stance any considerable amount, such as
would bo involved in tho purchnso of
3,000 or MOO-mllo ticket. The Rock
Island arid the Missouri Pacific havo ex
changed business on their roads betwoen
Missouri river points and Denver for some
tlmo and It Is this action on their part
that has forced consideration of the ques
tlon by other roads. It Is even hinted tha
failure to arrive at a satisfactory solution
of tho problem may causo serious rate dls
turbances In tho territory affected.

PARTY YIELDS UP THE GHOST
Vre Sliver Itepuhllenns Confess Dls-
solution by Fnlllna; to File
Expense Account.
That the free silver republicans have
heard the sound of their death-knell as a
political party and havo submitted grace
fully to tho Inevitable Is Indicated by the
neglect of tho managers of the organiza
tion to fllo with the county clerk accord
ing to lnw a statement of the expenses
Incurred by them during tho campaign.
The statute provides that the treasurer
of every central committee, city, county
or state, accordingly as tho election Is
local or otherwise, must placo on record
a sworn statement of the finances of his
organization, containing an accounting ot
the money received and expended for cam
paign purposes. Tho maximum time al
lowed for compliance with the require
ment is twenty days. Failure Is attended
by a withdrawal of tho right to exist dur
ing futuro rampnlgns.
As this department of fusion strength Is
expected to bo of no worth In future elec
tions tho managers correctly concluded
they might as well throw up tho sponge
and shirk tho task of compiling a state
ment of the moneys used In the campaign.
Tho county clerk says no account of any
sort has been received from tho free sil
ver republicans, although tho treasurers
of tho other parties havo long ago com
piled with tho requirement. The peoples'
Independent party and tho middle-of-the-road
populists havo handed In their state
ments. Tho mld-rondcrs had Just enough
tn tho treasury when the last campaign
echo died away to purchnso tho postage
stamp necessary to mall the account to
tho court house. Their receipts wero
$342,85. Tho expenditures were $342.83.
The other party had a balance, also, but
ono not largo enough to causo embarrass
ment, ns it amounts to only 40 cents. The
recolptn were $316,90, as against $316.60
paid out.

If You Can't Eat or Sleep Well, You Aro In a

Dr. Greene's Nervura Cures
LEEPLESSNESS is
can befall a person
utterly exhausted and
wakeful, disturbed and
ble. What wonder that there are so many shattered nerves,
tired brains, and debilitated bodies, when we consider the
thousands upon thousands who pass sleepless or disturbed
nights, and rise mornings feeling indescribably miserable,
dragged out, scarcely able to face the day's work ! What
wonder that so many rise mornings from their beds, where
they have lain with weary lids and sleepless eyes, tossing
from side to side, or simply
catching short, unrefreshing
naps rilled witn dreams,
feeling heavy-headed, with
pale face, haggard looks,
dull and heavy, ringed eyes,
and go about their daily em
ployment with tired limbs,
exhausted energies, nerveless
and ambitionless.
There is one sure way to
cure sleeplessness, and that is
by the use of Dr. Greene's
Nervura, the great brain and
nerve invigorator. This won
derful remedy is Nature's own
sleep producer, and is perfectly
harmless, being made from
pure vegetable medicines
fresh from the lap of Nature.
It may be given to infants,
children, or the most delicate
invalids without fear. It
soothes, calms, and quiets the
weakened, irritable and over-wrought
nerves, producing perfect repose, and
refreshing, natural sleep; at the same
time it builds up and tones up the
shattered nerves and gives renewed
life, strength, vitality and vigor
Mr. F. M Byers, Alllmnco, Ohio, says a
" Some time ago, I suffered with general disability and nervousness. I could not sleep nt night nor In the
daytime. I suffered almost everything and had a Bevero pain In my sldo. I was depressed lu spirits and
discouraged in every way. Ono day I read of Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy, and determined to
try It. 1 have now taken six or eight bottles and I feel llltc'n new man. I had only taken it a short time when it
began to build me up. I can sleep now and hare a good appotito and feel that I have a new lcaso of life I con
alder Dr. Greene's Nervura blood and nerve remedy the best of medicines."

lishing classes of this kind those mothers
and homomakcrs, several of whom have
been teachers In the schools, beltevo tho
city will find not only an answer to this
question, but tho solution ot ono ot tho
most grave problems of the day as well.
Tho necessity of such classes is espe
cially recognized by the principals and
tcachors, who find that In all schools there
is a certain per cent of boys and girls who
fall behind and Anally drop out, becauso
they havo not the mental capacity to keop
up in tho studies from the sixth, seventh
and eighth grades on. Many of these boys
havo mechanical Ingenuity, which, it de
veloped nnd trained and combined with
their other education, would mako useful
and honest citizens of them.
It Is the same with the girls, Beginning
working at a pittance In stores, shops or
at anything an Inexperienced girl can do,
they drift on and dually Into homes of
their own, utterly Ignorant of tho first
principles of homemaklng. In a properly
conducted class of domestic sclcnco these
girls would Boon learn that It Is not the
work that degrades the girl, but tho girl
that degrades the work, and onco realizing
the real dignity of truo housekeeping thoy
will go on to a higher and more complete
education In this line, and the homes of
tho futuro and their products will hava
had secured to them that prlnclplo which
no other Influenco can cradlcato.
Afl It Is, theso boys and girls, with tiro
rnpny others that leave school for various
rtasons, do nothing, or worse, and drift
on into conditions that become a far greater
source of expenso to tho city than theso
Industrial classes would bo, and It Is the
bollet of theso women that In classes of
this kind Omaha will find tha "ounce of
prevention" that will bo worth tho "pound
of euro."
