(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, Sept. S. Special.) John Tin
ton drove Into a swarm of honey bees
while cutting hay near Havelock this morn
ing and was dangeroualy stung. He waa
brought- to - Havelock. where he received
medical attention. The mart waa covered
with welts from his head to his waist and
was almoat craaed with pain.
When Vinton flrat drove Into the beea
they attacked hla horses and In endeavor
ing to quiet them he himself was covered
with the bees. The horses finally became
unmanageable and started to run. Vinton
released them and began to fight the beea
from himself. Men who were at work In
the field came to his asalatance and finally
rescued him. The horses were stopped after
snaking a circuit of the field. Both of them
were aeverely atung and are dangeroualy
Injured. Vinton will recover.
Talk of Poind', Saceeseor.
Around Lincoln at the present time some
people are speculating on the Identity of the
man who la to aucceed Supreme Court Com
missioner Roacoe Pound, whose resignation
to become dean of the law department ot
the State university. Is expected Boon., The
talk haa brought the Interesting Informa
tion that It la not yet known who of the
eommlaalonera la to gat the abort and who
the long terms, aa provided for In the new
. law enaotad by .the late legislature. ; The
nine eommlaalonera were appointed but the
time was not designated, evidently because
the court desired to know wblph of the men
showed that proficiency that would entitle
' them to hold on for two years. In any
event, however. Judge Pound's term of of
fice would not expire until next April.
It la aald here now that Judge Lytton of
Falrbury will be the aucoeasful man. Judge
Lytton waa a candidate for re-election but
CM out of the way and permitted the nom
ination of Judge Reavla. This It la said has
secured him atrong backing for the place.
It waa also stated today by one who la
conversant with the situation that Judge
Sedgwick will be allowed to name the com
missioner by the courtesy of hla colleagues.
Thla man aald Judge Sedgwick had been In
terviewed and waa for Judge Lytton. It
may be that Judge Sedgwick wtU name the
man and may be not. Inaamuch aa the re
tiring republican commissioner landed a
good place In the law department of the
unlveralty the other two Judges may take
a hand. The aelectlon of the commissioner
Is made by the unanimous vote of the
Judgea. 4
Eaglaenaea Get More Pay.
The Burlington has voluntarily Increased
the pay of tta enginemen from I to 10 and
In some instances 16 per cent, to become
effective September 1. The Increaae had
not been demanded by the enginemen. It la
said, and came as a surprise. In all about
100 men In Lincoln' are affected. This will
mean that on the main tines from Lincoln
tO McCook, from the Junction to Hastings
and from Lincoln to Ravenna enginemen
will receive from 1160 to 1200 per month.
When the trainmen received from 11 to
IS per cent more money than they had been
getting before, some weeka ago, It was
thought only fair to the men In the engine
department that they be remembered also
In a subatantlal manner. .
. The advance meana, aay officials, that
the Burlington wilt be paying as much
money and In some Inatancea more to ita
engineers and firemen than la paid on' the
leading roads of the country. The Union
Padno has had the reputation In the past
of giving Ita enginemen the top price paid
by weatern roada, but It no longer holds
the belt. In aome Instances the Burlington
offers more money per trip, distance being
taken Into consideration.
Last September the enginemen received
their flrat Increase, amounting to I or I
par cent, but thla waa more a matter of
readjustment than a real advance.

Onaaha Crow Makes a nit.
Omaha waa well represented at the re
union today. The delegation was not large,
but It waa powerful and moat entertain
ing. In. fact In leaa than thirty mlnutea
I Omaha half the people In Haatlnga and
nearly everyone at the reunion grounda
realised that there waa something doing
that was not down on the program. The
flrat Intimation the Hastings people had
of It was when Burlington train No. 6
came In and two well dressed men In bare
feet got off the head coach and were fol
lowed by a third going In handcuffs. The
two men In bare feet were H. W. Collins
and Alderman D. J. O'Brien of Omaha.
The handcuff victim waa Frank Dunlop,
the official entertainer for the Ak-8ar-Ben.
Aa aoon aa the queer looking trio alighted
from the train all handa of the byatanders
gathered abou them ao cloaely that it
became necessary for the depot police to
Interfere and force an opening ao the
atrangera could make their exit
Collins and O'Brien headed straight for
the cabs, but owing to the Immense traffic
to and from the reunion grounds there
were but two cabs at the atatlon and both
of them were engaged. As there was ne
pi
other vehicle handy the odd looking trio
marched down, the streets to the hotel.
while a howling crowd of curtoua specta
tora followed clous at their heels. After
they had rotten under cover a porter wii
rlbed to purchnrs two palra of ahoea, but
omehow nobody could be Induced to re
lieve -the unfortunate Dunlop. However.
when the trio arrived at Camp Sherman
Dunlop waa finally released on the prom
lee that he entertain the old aoUllera for
an hour, and he certainly kept. hU word.
for within ten minutes after the Omaha
delegation arrived at the grounds Camp
Sherman was tranaformed Into a. comlo
opera, with the Omaha trio as the star
performers.
In an Interview with Mr. Dunlop The Bee
representative learned tonight that hlle
enroute from Omaha to Hastings Collins
and O'Brien complained of a severe head
ache, when Dunlop atiggested as an Im
mediate relief that they take off their
shoes and aocka and slowly pour a pint
of Ice water on the big toe, aa all the
nerves from the lower extremities coma
In direct contact with the medulla oblon
gata, and by the reflex action of the stim
ulus the brain becomes clear and cool and
the circulation gets back to Its normal
atatus. At first the two gentlemen hooted
at the Idea, but a brief argument convinced
them and they tried It. While they were
thus engaged Dunlop quickly gathered
up the shoes and aocka and deliberately
tossed them out of the car window. Aa
soon aa O'Brien and Collins learned their
fate they handcuffed Dunlop and atuck hie
head Into the water cooler.
