Vlnnonhaler, udge of the county court of the said -ounty, this fourteenth day of December, V D. 1904, who being sworn on his oath iys: That Edward Koae water, on or about the 81st day of July, A, D. 1904, In the county and state aforesaid, then and there Ix-lng, did then and there falsely, malic iously, unlawfully and feloniously write. in mi una LiuuiiHn ana cause lo ue written, printed and published a fa.se and ma.lc.ous .Ibel of and concerning the aaid Timothy i.

In that he, the said Edward Rosewater, did then and there unlawfully, maliciously, falsely and feloniously wilte, :rlnt, publish and cause to be written, .(Tinted and published In a newspaper hav ing a general circulation and known as The. Omaha Dally liee. In the edition thereof of Sunday, July 31, A. D. 1904. and .ilao known as The Omaha Sunday Bee, In he issue thereof of date July .11, A. D. 194. a certain open letter article, or edi torial, bearing the heading, "What Is the .utoat Appalling," and bearing the signa ture, "E. Rosewater;" in which said letter, article or editorial he, the said Edward tnsewater. did among other things unlaw. iUlly, falsely, maliciously and feloniously .trite, print and publish and cause to be written, printed and published In said newspaper having a general circulation, i he false and malicious libel of and con rning the said Timothy J. Mahoney in tenor, purport and effect as follows, to-wit: tight years ago the whole state was : hocked to learn that trie state treasurer Had embessled over Ifioo.ono of public oonles, of which about $100,000 were school i'unds. The defaulter was tried and con victed In this county (meaning . Douglas county), and the brunt of the battle to iiHng about the enforctment of the law "gain devolved upon The Bee and myself with very little, If any, aid from anybody fonnected with the Civic Federation. In i hat memorable battle (meaning the prose cution and trial of the said state treasurer) Hie president of the Civic Federation i meaning the said Timothy J. Mahonev) waa one of the attorneys for the defense, .ind a report which has recently reached me credits him (meaning the said Timothy J. Mahoney) with collecting about (6.000 f I. O. U's., (meaning thereby promissory notes or written promises to pay money) placed In his hands (meaning thereby the 'lands of the said Timothy J. Mahoney) li" the great treasury embezzler (meaning hereby one Joseph S. Bartley, former state 'reasurer of the state of Nebraska) before (meaning the said Joseph 8. Bartley) vas sent to the penitentiary. This story 'meaning thereby the sum- of about 15.000, tated and alleged by the said Edward Ilcsewster to have been collected by the ?ald Timothy J. Mahoney from the said 1. O. U's.) It Is reported was duly collected nd appropriated (meaning thereby that the uld Timothy J. Mahoney had collected and ecelved Into his possession and custody he sum of about, Js.000. In payment of cer tain I. O. TT's. or promises to pay money "nd appropriated the same to the use of Mm. the said Timothy J. Mahoney), al though the amount Is about $4,600 In excess of the attorney's fee to which the col lector (meaning the said Timothy J. Ma honey) was entitled (meaning thereby that he, the said Timothy J. Mahoney, an at 'orney at law, had collected or a client the sum of about 16,000 and nad unlawfully "mbazsled and approorlated to his own use he sum of about $4,600 of Md collection). To my mind such a state or affairs (mean Sin thereby the alleged commission of the "rime of embezzlement by the said Timo thy J. Mahoney, an attorney at law). Is iuch more appalling than anything that hat happened in the Dennlson case. Basse Old Farce, "The' same old farce." said Mr. Rose vater on learning of the Mahoney trick. "Why am I hauled up before this court when Mahoney knows Judge Vinsonhaler lo be personally unfriendly to me? And why does he go into the county court at sil, when he knows It is not Intended for criminal practica? It's the same old trick to try to annoy and discredit me when I tm busy with my own affairs trying to Interrupt me,-knowing the case never will dome to trial. "Furthermore, it seems passing strange 'hat Mr. Mahoney has only decided at this late date to go into court over something that happened four and a half months ago. Has: he been cogitating over It all this ilme?" leagues was spproved snd a new rule was adopted designed to restrict snd properly guni.h players who msy be removed from the held.

EXPERTS TELL H0WT0 SELECT GOOD SEEDS Necessary to Secure Grain Which Yields the Largest Amoont of Grain as Welt as that Which Will Germinate. An innovation in railroad enterprise has been undertaken by the Burlington to in crease the yield of corn per acre Ir. Ne braska. Acting In conjunction with the De partment of Agriculture of the University of Nebraska, the Burlington is sending over the state a train known aa "The Seed Corn Special," having on board a party of scien tists who explain how to select seed corn from which the best results may be ob tained. The train, which made its Initial trip on Wednesday, Is now touring the state and will stop at nearly every station on that road In Nebraska. Every farmer cannot find time to attend a farmer's institute and the Burlington has decided to send the Institute to the farmer. The train left Lincoln at 6:50 o'clock for Schuyler, where the first lecture waa de livered. The train was made up of two private cars and two coaches, and was In charge of W. H. Manss, Industrial commis sioner for the Burlington, who looked after the comfort of those on board. Besides the scientists, on the rolling agricultural school were newspaper representatives and a number of railroad officials. Stops of half an hour were made at each pi the stations passed and the day coaches were used for lecture rooms. An address was made In each of the coaches at the same time. The Interest manifested In the lectures was evident In the large audiences which everywhere met tha train. Farmers came on horseback. In wagons and occasionally In automobiles from distances of over twenty miles. In many cases they brought with them defective ears of corn to ascertain the trouble with the grain. These faults and the best way to obviate them were cheerfully and carefully explained. Those on the train were: W. H. Manss, industrial commissioner of the Burlington; O. V. Ober, secretary to Mr. Manss; Profs. T. L. Lyon, 8. Avery, A. L. Hecker and E. C. Montgomery of the agrlcultral depart ment. University of Nebraska; D. B. Ash burn, seed com expert of Gibbon; E. Big nell, superintendent of the Lincoln division of the Burlington: H. N. Wilson, train master; L. M. Whitehead, traveling pas senger agent; and the following newspaper men: W. L.

Instructor In farm crops for the University of Illinois, joined the party at Ashland. Methods Are Illustrated. The lecture coaches were liberally sup plied with charts, maps and photographs and samples of corn In order to Illustrate the best method of selecting corn for plant ing. Owing to the short stops made It was possible to touch only the more Important points, but it Is safe to assert that those who visited the train were well repaid for their trouble. The addresses of all the lecturers were along the same lines and this was with re gard to the selection of seed, corn that will Increase the yield per acre In Nebraska. The principal point made was the seleo tlon of cylindrical ears with deep kernels. so shaped that they will not allow space near the tops of the rows nor near the cob. It was explained that as in the case of rattle there Is a hereditary tendency In grain, so that like produces like. It was shown that In experimenting nearly the same tactics are employed as would be the case In producing thoroughbred cattle. As one of the professors put it, "You can't get good corn from scrub seed any more than you can get thoroughbred cattle from In ferior or scrub breeds." One of the strongest object lessons made was with a full; cylindrical ear of corn and one that tapers at the end. "It Is easy enough to comprehend," said the speaker, "that an acre of these tapering ears can't yield as much corn as one of the cylindrical ears." He also explained that the roughest ears of the same kind of corn have more vitality and are better germlnatora than smooth ears of any particular kind. "Hers are two ears. Originally both had the same circumference on the outside, but in one ear the kernels are very shallow while In the other the kernels are full and deep. In one case you have a great deal Of cob while In the other you have very little cob. Here Is an enlarged photograph," said ths speaker, pointing to a chart, "in which the kernels come together st thu middle, but leave a good deal of space top and bottom. Well, you can't sell space and It won't weigh anything. You can't get any money for space. What you want is corn. See to It then that you pick out corn that has full, deep kernels that set close together top and bottom. See to it too that you get ears where the stem Is not so small that'll Is going to be broken oft too easily. This butt, you will notice. Is not a good one. ' Tha stem is too small. On this ear it Is too large. It breaks off too hard. Get an ear with a stem between the two." Largest Crowd at Plattsmonth. The largest audience of the day was at riattsmouth, where over 200 people visited the train. Thirteen stops were made and the average attendance was about 150, which comfortably filled the cars. At Pluttsmouth people had lo stand up In the aisles and the deepest interest was mani fested in the lectures. - The train will be out on the road for the rest of the week und for two days of next week. Thursday morning the train will start from Seward and make the following stops.

Union Pacific agent at this place, has made a confession To Special Agent Vizard "of the railroad, who came here from Omaha to investigate the alleged robbery of the station last Sunday night. May now acknowledges that the station was not robbed at all, but that he merely made a report to that effect to cover up an amount of money he took from the company's funds, to says Special Agent Vlxard. j Mr. Visard says the nature of the agent's report and his sctlons when being ques tioned on the matter aroused suspicion. The special agent stayed several hours with the young agert and finally secured a confession of the whole transaction from ; May. j May, who Is but 22 years of sge, says a woman Is at the bottom of his troubles. She Is now at Hot Springs, Ark., and muah in need of money, so May could not re- -lit the temptation of taking S6u from the money drawer and sending In the rob bery report. May agreed to accompany Special Agent Vizard to Omaha to have the , matter straightened out. J Special Agent Vizard was seen at the j polite station and he said the facts of the case are as reported. May came to Omaha, but it Is not believed he will be prosecuted, as ths money shortage has been made up. SSij UUwLbULHird U UU IZA P-iCUJ si Fir at Fremont Normal. . KHKMONT.
