Moles from Headquarters.
Forty recruits have been enlisted thus
far st th" regular army ricrulting station
In this city during the month of April.
This represents only about half of the ap
plli ants. The rush 'of applications for en
listment is owing to tli reduction In the
ae limit from z1 to IK years. While n
majority ot the appllcsnts for enlistment
ere young men between I" and -1 years,
there have been a number of re-rnllst-meiHs.
and some few who have reached
the maximum limit of 35 years. The cause
of ho many rejections Is the rigid physical
examinations required and the inability of
many applicants coming up to the requisite
standard. A peculiar feature among the
rejections, too. Is the height deficiency of
the applicants, many of them being phys
ically perfect In all other respects, but not
of the requisite height ns compared with
ago anil weight.

There was a broil and a lot of excite

terfere because It waa all according to
law. It was one of the first cargoes of
epilog broiler to come In for the Omaha
market. The tender little chicks are the
offspring; of an Incubator farm over In
Iowa somewhere and were welcomed by
a delegation and considerable enthusiasm
They are not the first spring chickens re
celved, but they are almost the first. There
were only two dozen. It will be at least
sixty days before enough Nebraska chirks
come In to supply the home market In any
sort of a regular manner. The birds are
coming a little easier now. but the fresh
stock is confined to the rather portly hens
of the sort which make splendid soup,
The desirable sizes are largely confined for
the present to the frozen stock, which, by
tbe nay, Is very good. There are u few
ducks, but not many, and they cannot be
obtained in number before the end of the
laying season. There is no sort of game
bird to be had now, for the wild duck sea
sou closed April ID. It is up to the squab
now.

supreme Court.
The last of the bootleggers confined In the
Dourjlas county Jail have been released
from cu. tody. They tire Alonzo Shawl
"Feathcrlcgs" nnd Abner Gllstrap, indictee!
for b"lllng liquor to Indians at Homer,
Neb. The cases against Shaw and Gllstrap
were nulled upon the recommendation of
District Attorney Baxter, as a result of the
decision of United States Supreme Justice
Brewer, which permits tho sale of liquor
to Indian allottees of lands. The case
against Frank Orr Is also dismissed under
the same motion of District Attorney Bax
ter. The office of the United States district
attorney will keep In touch with Shaw,
Gllstrap, Orr and Snyder, as they will bo
needed as witnesses In tho saloon conspir
acy cases yet to be tried.
"It must not be inferred from the deci
sion of Justice Brewer," said Judge Baxter,
"that all prosecutions against the snloon
men and bootleggers at Homer, Pender
and elsewhere are to be abandoned. , We
still have some pretty stiff cases against
some of them for taking liquor onto tho
reservations, and these cases come under
federal Jurisdiction and will be prosecuted
to a finish."

MANY OWNERS FOR PROPERTY
Referee In Partition (lie Recom

Thomas IT. Fell, John A. Rine and
Charles T. Dickinson, referees in the cass
of Elizabeth B. Mackey nnd others against
Jesse Reeves and others have reported to
the district court that they cannot make a
partition of the property Involved without
great prejudice to the owners of the. land
Involved. This embraces several lota In

county. The referees have found that thera
are thirty-three owners In common of tho
property, and they recommend that all the
property be aold and a division of the pro

The property Involved in the suit is
described as follows: Lots 11 and 12 and the

WOMEN DIDN'T PAY THEIR FARE
Fa mam Street Trolley Conductor
Loses Patience and Some

"I'll Just stop the car until somebody

Inside," said the conductor of a crowded
West Farnam street car after the opera
Friday night. "They say they have es
corts and they won't dig up. Now, you
fellows out here have to dig up for them."
The car stopped and stood still for sev
eral minutes. One man got off nnd started
to walk home. Another promised to sue
the company. The conductor fumed and
threatened, but not a single nickel dlr he
collect. The car was so full thnt It was
Impossible for htm to remember what
women had not given him their fare. At

that women were a snltchy lot, anyway.
Juvenile Court Session.
There was no session of the Juvenile
court on Saturday morning, because of
Arbor day being a legal holiday. Judgi
Day bad several cases to be disposed of
but put them over. One case is that of
a young girl of South Omaha, who has
(ireater Excellence In Modern Times
the Result of Modern Methods.
From all Indications the American peo
ple will dine well today.
Since the days of our Puritan ancestors,
ham and egfjs have had the place of honor
on every Faster table. As the turkey Is
to the Christmas dinner so are the ham
and eggs to the Easter dinner. The
philosopher may explain how and why the
custom was established, but we are more
Interested In the excellence of our dinner
than In his philosophy.
Colonial eggs were undoubtedly as good
as twentieth century eggs, but with the
hams, there Is room for discussion. Much
of the romantic creeps Into our visions of
the feasts that were laid by our great
grandfathers, and the claim of the su
periority of the old-time food products
often goes unchallenged. The hogs that
grandfather raised In his own green pas
tures, fed on the pure sweet country milk,
and the bright yellow corn, and the spark
ling spring where they drank, and of such
hams ns wero produced, and they wer
cured In salt and then smoked under the
big cask by a slow fire of green birch
wood that smelled as sweet poetic Isn't
it? But as a fact, were they not always
over-salted or smoked too much or too
little.
The ham of the gtiod old days could
not compare with the modern product be
cause of modern facilities for preparing
and curing tha meat. Present duy methods
are equal to th discriminating taste of
this generation. The old-time country
product would not be tolerated by those
who have enten Swift's Premium hams
for their taste has been educated to a
point where nothing else will satisfy.
A special sale of these hams was made
yosterday all over the United States, and
thousands of tons were turned over to
consumers to gladden the Easter dinners,
If your table is graced today by Swift's
Premium ham your feast will be more
sumptuous than any your great grand
mother ever dreamed of.'
