BOYS WANT TO CLEAR AWAY DEFICIT Dance Proposed iisOlelliod of I'lnnore, but This I I'mtriird I lion Vnnths Tlirenten Do-fiance. A clash of authority has arisen between Principal Knslgn and members of the High School Athletic association, Tho associa tion closed the season with a big deflMt In Its treasury and this the young men arc desirous to clean up. They suggested giv ing a dnncc to raise the funds needed and to arrange for this asked that a meeting of the association be callcTI at the High school building Monday night. Principal Ensign through action of the Hoard ot Edticatlo'n was invested with au-i thorny and Jurisdiction over the affairs of tho Athletic association, a he baa over all societies formed ot the High school pupils. Mr. Ensign Is opposed to the young peo ple's giving dances and refused to allow the meeting to be called for such a pur pose. , Somo or the 'members of tho association are Inclined to rclst the authority or the principal and yostcrday announced they wouiH meet Monday evening outside tho High school building, If they were not per mitted to do so within. They say they are determined to have the dance, as by It thoy hopo to clear off the Indebtedness of thu association. Principal Ensign Is a creditor of the Ath letic association to tho amount of $60, which ho ndvanecd at different times to help the organization nlong, but he has re fused in accept tho money If raised by means of a public subscription dance. After tho foot ball team returned from Harlan, whom It played the High school of that place, tho landlord of tho hotel at which some of the boys stopped sent In a bill to Principal Ensign of $10 for damages Tho landlord claimed that the walls In somo of tho rooms hud been defaced with chalk marks, bed linen torn and other ilamauo clone. Tho boys declare tho hill Is an Imposition and refuse to pay It. and this Is said lo bo tho chief causo of tbo clash hctwecn Prln clpal Ensign nnd somo of tho members of tho Athletic association. Principal Ensign it Is said, has announced that tho bill must bo settled before he will permit tho asso ciation to clear off Its other Indebtedness In any manner. his stock. In his answer to that petition Burns swore that Doyle would not nnd hacj no Intention of transferring or dispos ing of his stock. On cross-examination counsel asked the witness to rcconclto these statements, tlurns said he could not, other than both statements were true. On direct examination Hums testified that he never allowed Doylo to sign any aflldavlt or swear to any plendlngs without having them carefully read and understood by him. This whs In denial of Doylo's testi mony that ho frequently signed papers which were handed til in Jiy tlurns without looking at their contents'. On rross-exam- Inatlon Hums said he hlmseir was very careful to read over nnd understand and know what he signed nnd swore to In tho way of pleadings, etc. Counsel Hughes then showed hi in a page answer which he had sworn to In the O Halrc suit, In which he swears that tho complaint filed In thn case wos true and correct to tho best of his belief and knowl edge." Durns' counsel rcso In n bodv nnd protested that the word "complaint" was simply a clerical error for the word "an swer." Counsel Hughes feigned great sur prise that such a careful swearer as Mr. Hums had testified to being would not no tlc6 such a vital error In a pleading, which It whs presumed had been rend over care ful by hint before swearing to it. Mr. Hughes, however, finally admitted that he did not think that Mr. Hums really In tended to ndnilt O'Hnlre's claim was true and correct and tho witness was spared an explanation. On cross-examination Mr. Hilrns admitted that ?S00 worth of work was done on tho Tidal Wave, being $300 more than itimclcnt tor a patent, and that Doyle did half of the amount without being paid for It. W. V. Crosby, a banker, who with T. O. Condon held a bond nnd lease on tho Port- land and who assisted In the Incorporation of tho Portland Oold Mining company, tea tilled that as n director of tho company ho objected to the price Hums demanded for the Devil's Own and Tidal Wave rlaltii3 nnd spoke to Doylo about It, who agreed with him, and that Doyle never made nny claim of having nny lnicrc.it In these prop erties. Neither did Doyle moke nnv do- mand for any hare of tho stock Issued by tho company for tho purchase of thwe properties from Hums. business men nnd before returning to Plattsmouth expressed themselves a sat- iiflcd with tho prospects here.

BURNS Counsel for Iloylr TnWIrm the Drfrnri nnt Wllnms In Hand for Awhile, On adjourning court Saturday evening until Monday morning Judge Green, In giv ing his usual Instructions to tho Jury In the Doylo-Burns suit. Impressed upon them tho importance of doing nothing that would Invalidate tho trial of the easp, which had cost so much tlmo and mouey. Tho direct examination of James Hums was completed shortly before the noon re cess, when Counsel Hughes began the cross examination of tho witness, "it Is ex pected that tho cross-examination of Mr. Burns will occupy all of Monday nnd pos sibly port of Tuesday. After the noon adjournment and before tho cross-examination of Burns was re sumed W. P. Crosby and I. Erich or Colo rado Springs, witnesses ror the defendant, were placed on tho stand. The plaintiff tried Jlo introduce the testimony of T. J. Wolppcr of Victor In rebuttal of the evi dence of W. C. White for the derendant, but the court held that as the testimony or White, which Wclpper was plared on the stand to Impeach, was on collateral matter that ot Welppcr could not be ad mitted. In bis direct examination yesterday morn- ing Burns was permitted by tho court to explain how the term "partner" was used In the mining camp, lo said It was a torm ot general expression used by miners when talking or the men working and liv ing with them and used In the same sense as veterans of the civil war ue the word comrade. Ho talked of Doyle as his part ner because Doyl6 shared the same cabin with him, ate at the samo table with him nnd was his partnor In the Portland and Proressor Grubbs claim. Explaining why somo or his stock was Is sued In tho name or James Perguson the witness said he did so at the tlpie Doylo was trying to acquire control or tho Port land company nnd he thought It might bo a good time to speculate In stock. Ho could not speculato In his own name, as being president ot tho company to do so would affect tho market. The trouble, however, wns settled by thn old boards be ing ro-fleeted nnd ho had the stock trans ferred back In his right name. Ho said that Doyle demanded that the company return! him tho $3,500 he paid O'Halro In settlement of tho suit' brought against him, but the company refused to relmbursn him because he had settled tS--e8e without musultlng the other directors. He asserted that Doyle always took an ac tlvo part In the affairs of the company, and that ho (Burnt) was In no sense ot tho word Doylo's guardian. Doyle, he said, never mado any demand for the stool; for which he Is now suing heforo July, 18US. He testified that beforo the suit ngalnut Doyle was commenced by O' Ha ire he heard about It and told 'Doyle and Doyle sug gested that his stock bo placed In Burns' name to protect It. When tho suit was started Burns was made a party defendant. O'Hnlre secured an Injunction restraining Doyle from covering up or transferrin! Poverty ball given by team No. 7131. M. W. A.. W. O.
