and the bill Itself Is to prescribe the effect
to be given to an existing statute. In other
Words, the bill, r It considered aa lto mdo
, penuent act, Is a bill to conmrue and give
effect to the enactment of a former legis
lature. Tho constitution divides the power
of government Into three departments, and
forbids each to exerclae the functions of
another, it is a function of the courts to
construe and give effect to statutes und this
power cannot be eaerdaed by the legisla
ture.

.-to avoid the conclusion thar the bill waa
conceived In a spirit of professional Intol

measure bore upon osteopatha with the
same rigor that It does upon Christian
Scientists, and when It la recalled that
homeopaths, eclectics and other now well
recognized schools of heating, as well as
osteopaths, have hnd to fight their way
to existence over legal harriers rained by
their professional brethren who happened
to be within the pale of the law, the sus

SK.KATE ItlMlISU THROUGH DILLS
Working Avray to Finish I n the Ses
sion Today.
(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, March i.-(8peciaI.)-Thls, the
next to the laat day of the session, wna
noticeable, as all last days are, by a rush
ing through of bills with practically no dis
cussion. Early this morning the sifting
committee waa run over rough shod and
nineteen measures shot up for third read
ing which had not yet been considered by
this committee. A few members of the
committee objected strenuously to this pro
ceeding, bit -to no avail. A number of
house folia :ere reatj. a. first time, even
-though' It was announced that the bills
eould not possibly be read on three sep
arata days when there were only two days
remaining.
In tha committee of the whole numerous
bills were rushed through and a few killed.
Among these latter was H. R. 210, by
Clarko, which made the organisation of
suit clulw a felony.
Over the protest of Thomns of Douglas
eounty this morning, II. R. 3S4, the Omaha
charter bill, was advanced to a third read
ing without going through the sifting com
mittee or tho committee of the whole. Both
Saunders and Gibson spoke for the bill to
be advanced and each told how the Douglas
delegation had worked to get the bill In
shape to suit as many as possible of the
people of Omaha. Thomas, they said, was
the only member of the delegation who was
opposing any part of It. Thomas "desired
to amond the paving; aection. The vote to
advance the bill waa almost unanimous.
The biennial election bills were among
the number passed this morning and the
only opposition came from the Douglas del
egation, ,
II.' II. 266. which has been more talked

about than any measure before the legis
lature, .with , its copious amendments, was
also passed.
The senate then took the bit In its mouth
pnd ran away with the lifting committee,
elevating to third reading over the protests
of some members of the sifting committee
nine bills.
At this morning's session these bills were
passed :
II. Rs. 235, 315, 316, 317, 31S-The biennial
election bills.
H. R. 256 The amended bridgo bill.
II. R. 27--Dcflnlng the duties of county
boards.
II. R. 81 Providing that In counties not
under townxhlp organization the road tax
shall be paid in cash, and defining how the
money shall be expended.
H. Ra. 303 and 267 were Indefinitely post
poned, t These bills gave authority to the
state board to purchase supplies for tho
next session of the legislature.
11. R S29, by McAinater, giving the State
Board ' of Education control ' over Junior
Normal schools, waa Indefinitely postponed.
II. R. 194 was read for a third time and
passed. This 'bill, by. Rouse, allows county
treasurers to give surety bonds.
H. R. 174, by Andersen of Douglas, waa
recommended to pass. This Is a memorial
to congress to define the status of territorial
soldiers.
t nreludlce In order to make a politlcnl mat
ter out of this." He added that Jones was
the mouthpiece of that party whlrh purifies
politics when out of power and pollutes
politics when In power." y
Caisell of Otoe said the committee had ex
amined all the evidence available.
Jones then took the floor and asserted
that Mr. Robinson told the committee he
was ready to submit and support all his
evidence and that the committee omitted
to ask Mr. Robinson to do this. Replying
to McMulIen's charge, J.mcs declared he
had no desire to Inject imlltics In the mat
ter. He made a counter charge that the
republican memlx'ts, If any, were the ones
trying to give political color to the Inves
tigation by "covering up that which they
were appointed to uncover If possible."
A heated colloquy then ensued In which
McMullen and Jones treated the house
to a running croos-examlnatlon of each
other as to what the committee did or did
not and what It was supposed to do. Jones
held tho committee should have gone to
Omaha and Investigated the case, while
McMullen maintained that the committee
was not thus empowered, that It was not
within the committee's power to go to
Omaha.
Andersen of Douglas explained that as
the trustees of the Institute had already
made a thorough and satisfactory Investi
gation It waa needless for the committee
to do this.
McMulIen's tnotion to adopt the majority
report was adopted.
The conference committee on the salary
bill reported, showing the senate receded
from two amendments and a compromise
waa reached on a third. The report was
adopted.
The house then went Into committee of
the whole and took up senate files and
cloaned up the general file. Kaley of Web
ster was In the chair.
Windham of Cass made the longest
speech of the session against S. F. 140, by
Kpperson of Clay, allowing the governor to
fix the date of execution for capital of
fense. His view was that the bill tended to
abolish capital punishment and this Wind
ham had vehemently fought In anothor bill
before the hoiwe earlier In the session. Ills
speech was conceded to b one of the most
logical and effective heard In either house
or senate this session.
Douglas of Rock, replying to Windham,
said the latter's argument all went to the
question of abolishing capital punishment,
while the purport of the bill waa to provide
that no convict shall be hanged until the
governor shall sign the death warrant. Ho
supported this provision.
Jackson of Antelope made a strong speech
for the bill.
The bill was Indefinitely postponed.

LINCOLN, March 20. (Speclal.)-The
house will have no sifting committee.
Junkln of Gosper this morning withdrew
his resolution offered last week providing
for a sifting committee after Burns of
Lancaster, made a report that investiga
tion had proved a sifting committee to be
entirely unnecessary Inasmuch as the
house would be able to complete Its work
within the time prescribed without the
aid of a sifting committee.

on accounts and expenditures the house
this, morning indefinitely postponed S. F.

.The speaker appointed Wilson of Paw
nee, Dodge of Douglas and Caldwell of
Clay as a conference committee on H. R.
250, the salaries appropriation bill, the
senate amendments to whjch the house
refused to accept. The house likewise
refused to confer In the senate amend
ments to II. R. 61, the Warner revenue
amendment bill, and Warner of Lancaster,

were appointed a conference committee to
confer with a like committee from the

Farmer Members Making; Effort to

(From a Staff Correspondent.)
LINCOLN, March 29. (Special.) The
farmer members of the house have been
diligently at work today with a petition
calling for a reconsideration of the voto
by which the house refused to concur In
the senate amendment to the binder twine
plant bill, H. R. 49, by Ernst of Johnson.

sum of .'00,OTO for the establishment of the
plant. The petition at 3:30 this afternoon
bore the signatures of fifty-two members
snd R?presentatives Ernst, LIvengood and
Christensen, who were most active In the
enterprise, felt assured of carrying their
plan. The petition and an accompanying
motion will be presented In the morning.
Obviously the only way in which the bill
can now get through is for the house to
change its action on the bond proposition
and vote for It. Whether It will do this Is
a question fraught with much uncertainty.
The nine fusion, members of the legis
lature spent the early evening round the
festal boards at Colonel Bryan's home by
Invitation of the latter.
SLABAUGH PLEADS FOR LAWNS

County Attorney Blabaugh addressed the
Prospect Hill Improvement club Wednes
day evening on the campaign outlined for
1905 by the Central Improvement associa
tion. The attendance was smaal, only nbout
a dozen men being present, but the proper
spirit was shown and Judge Slabaugh con
gratulated the old war horses of the move
ment on the hill who have been enthusi
astically pushing the work for years. He
reminded them it Is not always numbers
that counts most. The men with the right
spirit of determination nnd a good grasp
of the needs of any given locality can, he
said, do about anything they set out to do.
Judge Slabaugh laid special Ptresj on the
great good to be accomplished not only now,
but especially In the years to come, by hav
ing the boys and girls Interested. He said

ties. Tha speaker pictured what Is being
done all over the land-by the thousands or
Improvement clubs and he urged that the
people of Omaha cannot afford to fall out
of the front rank, where they now are.
In a business way the club Instructed Its
committee on t-ewcrs to go to City Engineer
Rosewnter and others liv authority and to
impress on them that the proposed newer

ilton, but should be extended at leaHt to
Charles, nnd even beyond. It was brought
out that the people who really need and
want the sewer all live beyond .Hamilton,
ani that south of there to Cuming thero

FINAL ACTION WITH.N TWO WEEKS
tatement ftlvea Oat Which Says
Mlsalnti Board Has Sever Passed
Jadament on Uvea of
Sohscrtlirra.
rtOSTON. March 2B. The American board
of commissioners for foreign missions an
nounced today that Its prudential commit
tee had accepted a report of the subcom
mittee, recommending the acceptance of the
gift of $100,000 by John D. Rockefeller, but
that final action on' the matter had been
postponed for two weeks. The report of
the subcommittee in the language of a
statement Issued by the board today "was
received and accepted as expressing the
unanimous Judgment of the prudential com
mittee and the executive officers" and was
to the effect that the tommltee could not
accede to the protest of those who objected
to the acceptance of the gift.
The report also stated that the gift was
offered1 by Mr. Rockefeller and unani
mously accepted by the prudential com
mittee on February 14 last. It says that
In accepting the gift the committee fol
lowed the universal custom of the church
"In receiving upon its altars the gifts of
all who were moved to lay them thereon."
The report holds that "the acceptance
of a gift involves no expression of opinion
on tho part of the committee as to the
character of the giver, and to accept a
gift made to others n order to express
an opinion seems unwarrantable."
The reason for deferring final action
la given as follows: "Inasmuch as the
protestants have requested delay, the com
mittee would hold, final action .In abeyance
for two v.-eeks."
Summing up the arguments of the differ
ent protestants, the report' says they prac
tically declare that the donor of this gift
Is believed to be Idenifled fn a conspicuous
way with a great evil In this country and
that therefore the board should refuse the
gift In a conspicuous way, thus striking a
blow at the evil. "We feel." says the re
port on this point, "that the protestants
have other ways of making their views
known and that the blow should not be
struck at tho expense of the people In the
non-Christian world.
Rev. Mr. Evans, chairman of the protest
ing committee, said today:
A meeting of the committee has been
called for tomorrow to discuss the report
and to decide upon the' next step. This
committee has ben Increased In member
ship to fifteen In order that all sections of
New Englund may be represented. Tho
protectants are growing In number
throughout the oountry, both inside nnd
without the Congregational church. More
and more representative men are coming
over to our side. The matter is not settled
by any means.

WOMAN TELLS STRANGE STORY
Insists John Danlrleon Fired Thre
Shots Oat sf Revolver
at Her.
Three revolver shots fired under the east
end of the Tenth street viaduct last night
at 8:30 o'clock caused considerable excite
ment In that vicinity. Clara Hly. who
lives In one of the store rooms In the Ken
nedy building, said that John Danlelson,
who rooms at 1123 Howard street, and who
works at the electric power house, knocked
at her door and wanted to come inside.
She said he Is a friend of hers and that
she opened the door, but that Danlelson
Instead of coming Into the room flid the
revolver at her. She screamed, slammed
the door, ran down to the cellar, crawled
out of a back window In her night clothes,
ran across the alley Into the cold storage
building and crawled up on one of the boil
ers before she realised exactly what she
was doing. When she collected herself she
crawled down and donned a working suit
of overalls and was very glad to see Officer
Thomas when he apiieared with the patrol
wagon to lnvestlgnto the affair.
While still very much excited sjie In
sisted that the first shot was fired at her,
and that two more shots were fired outsldo
her door after she fled down to the cellar.
Fred Anderson, who rooms In the same
building upstairs, when questioned by
Officer Thomas about the shooting pre
tended to know nothing about It, but after
the woman appeared he partly disclosed the
fact that he knew more than he waa dis
posed to tell. Tho woman and Anderson
were taken to the police station and locked
up, where the woman again Insisted that
John Danlelson had tried to shoot her.
Danlelson was afterward arrested at his
room. He was very drunk, hut Insisted that
he had no knowledge of having done any
shooting and that he never owned a re
volver. He said he did not know of hav
ing done anything wrong, but If he had
he was sorry for It. The woman Identified
him.

MILWAUKEE JO BUILD WES7
Line Xot to Reach as Far as the Black
III1 la, but Will Tap Cattle
Country.
SIOUX FALLS, S. D., Mtrch 29-(Speclul
Telegram. )Informatlon received here this
evening from an authoritative source Indi
cates' thst the Milwaukee railroad will not
be extended to the Black Hills, this year at
loast. It Is stated the agreement existing
between the different roads will not permit
the Milwaukee company to build to the
Hills this year, but that the company Is
at liberty to tap the cattle country west
of Chamberlain for a limited distance, not
far enough to Interfere with the Black
Hills traffic of other roads. According to
the authority mentioned, which Is of tha
best, work will be commenced on the ex
tension of the Milwaukee westward from
Chamberlain very soonand so much of the
line as Is to be built will be finished this
summer.
Just where tho terminal" Is to be cannot
positively be stated, but it will be about
100 miles west of Chamberlain, in the heart
of the great cattle range between the Mis
souri river and the Black Hills. From
Chamberlain the line will run to strike
Medicine creek at the most convenient
point and will follow thence westward along
Its entire course. It will then follow along
the divide between the White and Bad
rivers to the terminal. This view that the
road will he extended about 100 miles west
ward of Chn,mborlaln Is borne out by the
Interview yesterday with Roswell Miller of
the Milwaukee road, who among other
things stated the Milwaukee would spend
about JSOO.OOO in South Dakota this year.
