NEBRASKA'S ENCAMPMENT
Btate Military Baard Boon to Bit Data for
National Guard.
REHEARING ASKED IN BIGAMY CASE
Attornr? htlll Fighting for Itowland
I'. Illllk Itnte mill Locu
tion of Slimmer
bull ii old.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, May IS. (Special.) Officers
and other persons interested In the affairs
of the Nebraska National guard expect the
Btate Military board, ct Its next meeting,
to decide upon the time and place for hold
ing the state mllltla encampment. This
meeting will be held In the office of the
odjutant general at the state house
Way 28.
The cities in tho race for the encamp
ment are said to be Omaha, Lincoln and
Beatrice. It 1b possible that Hastings,
Grand Island and possibly Fremont and
one or two other places will later submit
bids, but up to today none of these cities
had officially signified their intention of
competing for the prlie.
In deciding upon the location the mill
tary board wil be actuated largely b,y nat
ural condition of the cities. A central and
accessible location is desirable, but the
character of the grounds offered for the
encampment Mil also be considered. The
city which gets the encampment will prob
ably not be asked to furnish more than
the necessary camp and drill grounds,
fresh water, straw and other material for
the tents, and fuel
M ill lie n 111k TIiIiik.
"The annual encampment this year will
tie a pretty blc thing" said an officer of
tho guard today, "in the first place, there
will be an unusually large number of men
In the camp, about 1,400, including the two
regiments, tho battery and troop. Last
year the First regiment had been recently
organized when we bad our encampment,
but this year It is stronger In numbers
and has drilled longer. The regiments,
the battery and the troop will be under
brlgado formation. This will be a decided
Improvement and will add to the attractive
nebs of the encampment.
"As to the location, a great many on
cers are favoring selecting some place that
has shade or timber. Others think tb
trees are not so necessary. Lincoln will,
of course, bring strong pressure to bear
to secure the encampment. Omaha Is fa
rored by many, because the guard has
held no encampment there In recent years
and because of Its accessible location.
Beatrice will rely largely in Its effort to
secure the encampment on the attractive
ness of the land along the Blue river near
the city."
llrlienrliiK AnUrd for IIIIU.
Attorneys for Rowland P. Hills, who was
convicted In Washington county a year
go on a ,cbargc of bigamy, have asked
the supreme court for a rehearing, alleg
ing that the court's recent opinion was
contrary to law. The defendant Is serving
a four years' sentence Imposed by the dls.
trlct court In Washington county. The de
cision of the district court was afterward
affirmed by the supreme court.
In the motion filed today it Is claimed
that the supreme court misunderstood and
misinterpreted the force and effect of the
English statutes bearing upon the case,
particular attention being called to one
ectlon In question, which, it Is asserted,
in no way affects the validity of a marriage
contracted and entered Into in the English
kingdom, but relates alone to the mode of
enforcing such a contract. It Is contended
also that the court In its opinion over
looked the law laid down by the courts
of England In the English cases Incor
porated Into the bill of exceptions, and
that the residence of the parties Is ma
terial for the purpose of determining the
authority of a surrogate to grant a license
and for the further purpose of determining
the intent of the parties In going through
a marriage ceremony.
Other reasons assigned for asking for a
rehearing are that the testimony of the
defendant, who Is claimed to have qualified
as an expert in English law, was wholly
disregarded and misunderstood In the
opinion of the court In the Interpretation
of the English statutes, said witness hav
ing testified that a surrogate had no au
thority to grant a license for marriage to
parties, neither of whom resided tn his
diocese, and that his testimony was mis
apprehended and misquoted In the opinion,
and that the Instructions of the Judge of
the lower court to the Jury were contrary
to law.
Many Senaatlonal Feature.
The case contains many sensational fea
tures and important propositions of law.
Hills, the defendant, was an Episcopal
clergyman, residing in Blair. On April 13,
1600. rrosecutlng Attorney Aye of Wash
ington county, filed a complaint against
him, charging him with bigamy. It was
alleged that he had unlawfully married
Miss Dolly Powell In Blair tho year pre
vious, at the same time having a wife
living whom he had married In Sheffield,
England, In 1SS5.
A warrant for Hills' arrest was Issued
In response to the complaint, but afterward
it was learned ttat the man had removed
to Tacoma, Wa3tj. Hequlsltjon papers were
Issued by tho governor, but were not
honored by the authorities In Washing
ton, because of alleged Irregularities in
their composition. A later requisition,
however, was honored by the governor of
Washington and on May 13, 1000, Hills was
returned to Nebraska and placed in cus
tody at Blair.
In the meantime the alleged wife from
England arrived In Blair and before the
I preliminary hearing, the original complaint
upon wnlcb Hills naa neen arresiea ana
extradited, was dismissed by the county
attorney and a nev. complaint was signed
and sworn to by the alleged first wife.
After the preliminary hearing on this sec
ond complaint Hills was bound over to the
district court and bis bond was fixed at
12,000. He was unable to guarantee bis ap
pearance for trial In the amount required
and he has. therefore, remained ever since
in the county Jail. The trial In the dis
trict court lasted six days and the Jury,
after being out twenty-four hours, returned
a verdict finding the defendant guilty as
charged, and his sentence was fixed at four
years.
Brief for the Defendant.
In a brief for the defendant the attorneys
say: "By a careful perusal of authorities
cited we reach the conclusion that there
can be no valid or binding marriage cere
mony or marriage contract unless the par
ties to the same agree thereby to become
husband and wife, and that although par
ties may go through the form of a mar
riage ceremony and make tire proper re
sponses and comply with all the formalities
of a valid marriage, yet If the intention
of the parties tn going through the per
formance of the ceremony Is to accomplish
another and different object than that of
matrimony, they will not thereby become
husband and wife. In the case at bar ad
missions were made by Ellta C. Hills, and
the accused, Rowland P. Hills, bad testl
fied without exception or objection on the
part of the state that It was mutually
agreed and understood between himself and
the complaining witness at the time of the
carriage ceremony taat sail ceremony was
not to be regarded by them as a binding
marriage, but was to be treated as a pri
vate binding engagement, which was to be
perfected after his mother's death by a
publicly performed marriage ceremony, and
this matter was still further developed and
enlarged upon by the state In cross-examination.
This, then, was a material mat
ter." Twenty-Flvr Summer School.

It's a spring medicine ; and the chances
are you need a bottle or two of it. You
want something that acts directly on the
blood, takes out all impurities from the
system, braces up the nerves, and makes
.you in tune with the time of year.
It's a spring medicine Aycr's Sarsa
parilla. There are fifteen remedies, Nature!s own
remedies, in this grand old family medi
cine. If you are feeling all run down this spring, are
dragging around in a miserable condition, and go about
your, work in a lifeless kind of a way, try a bottle or two
of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. You will be wonderfully pleased
with .the result.
" I hsve tiled Ayer'i Sarsaparilla every tpring and fill for a great many yean. I am aure
It keeps me free from boils and other signs of impure blood. It it just the medicine one
needs to meet the pronounced changes of the seasons." Gio. R. Thompson, Rupert, Vt.

Ask your doctor what he thinks of Ayer's Sarsaparilla. The probability
C is he h:s prescribed it a great many times and knows just what it will do.
Then ask him if he dees not think it is precisely the medicine you need this
spring. J. C. AYER CO., Lowell, Mass.
