The Nebraska Cycle Co. has just received a supply of perfect, admira tion and attention compelling Victor Rtooords of the voices of America's most, talked of trio and will be more than pleased to "put them on the ma chine" for all interested callers. , ' Remember, The Nebraska Cycle Co.

Had an opposite ruling been made the state would have lost Its suit, as the name of Chief of PolfC9 Henr W. Dunn is the only one on the complaint. John P. Breen, attorney for Wallace, objected to the examination of the state's first witness, Clara Tolson because her name did not appear on the complaint. sioner Hummel has been compelled by judge Leslte neld that vnHe the ruie cold weather to carefully cover up 600 or m)ght apply ln the matter of an informa- 700 feet of new cement curb which his meu arc laying an the Northwest boule vard daily.

Kun on Dpnio . : Ticket for Board By a ruling of the supreme court, reached yesterday, but not written. Dr. E. Jtiolovtchiner, president of the Board of Education and, candidate for re-election from the " cond ward, will be deprived of the, democratic nomination, which he received In addition to the regular repub lican' nomination. A 'case ' simitar to Dr. Holovtchlners came up from Lancaster county .where a republican Candidate for county com misstnoner received the democratic nomi nation. The case was taken to the supreme court and a ruling made that the' candidate could not run on both tickets. , . There is come confusion ln the Inter pretation of the statute providing when a candidate must file, whether twelve or fifteen days before election. The demo crats have no candidate from the Second ward, Holovtchlner having received the largest number of democratic votes and being later endorsed by the democratic city central committee. If the fifteen days provision Is law it is too late for the democrats to put up a candidate, and if the twelve days provision is good today is the last day for filing. It Is understood that no attempt will be made by the democrats to nominate a man to oppose Holovtchlner. The antl Holovtchlner faction ln the Second ward will swing their support to Dr. Stacy Hall, nominee of the so-called' "progres sives," the leaders of which met. and nominated him.

An Information is in the nature of an Indictment, which Is filed after a thorough Investigation of 'the case, all witnesses names being known; but a complaint is filed before any com plete investigation has been made and therefore the prosecution cannot be ex pected to know the nsmcs of all the witnesses. (lam Totson TrutKieii. Clara Tol.son, who , was employed as a maid in a "house" at 116 North Ninth street, testified that Wallace had a girl In the house and frequently visited her there. She testified that on one occasion she saw the girl give Wallace 20 and at other times the keeper of the house gave the girl money to give to Wallace. Police Officers Frank S. Aughe and Frank Murphy testified that Wallace had been a frequenter of the restricted dis trict, apparently doing no work, Electric Fans Still Breezing, Says Sears The breeze stirred up in the Board of Education by two electric fans when Member M, F. Sears Inquired to know "if Secretary W. T. Bourke had sold the supplies committee two of these valuable devices, for $37.60 when they had only cost htm 12S," Is still blowing. "I am still Inquiring," said Mr. Sears. Secretary Bourke and the supplies com mittee are Investigating and expect to report within a few days. "It is unfortunate the chairman of the supplies committee could not remember the purchase," said Mr. Bourke. "If he had been there (at the meeting when the fans were purchased, presumably), that story would not have been written." Mr. Bourki says when the facts are known criticism of him will cease, asthe matter will be explained to the satis faction of Mr. Sears. ' I, 4 1 - O V ALFRED Q. ELLICK. Chief Dunn Orders . the New Auto Laws Enforced to Letter Nearly one hundred automobile acci dents In the last twelve months and the serious Injuries and two fatalities re cently have brought forth an order from Ch ef of Potlce Dunn tha henceforth offenders will he handled in the most stringent manner, and all disregard of the rules of the road or evidence of recklessness will be summarily dealt with. The new auto traffic ordinance passed by the city commission will be enforced to the letter. Trafflo policemen have been ordered to prevent pedestrians cut ting; across corners ln the congested dis tricts, and orders Have been Issued to hold back the crowds who walk Into the street to board street cars still a block or even half a block away. 'Chief Dunn says the carelessness that has resulted ln deplorable accidents is not altogether the fault of drivers of automobiles, and warns pedestrians that they must use caution ln the congested districts or else be subjected to police regulation. The chief received a circular letter from Los Angeles, where 1,135 automo bile and motorcycle accidents have oc curred within the last six months, where thirty persons have been killed, ln the city and seven ln the county. The cir cular asks for co-operation ln adopting some mode of procedure that will lessen ths number of serious accidents. Stricter supervision of traffic on down town streets has been ordered and the chief' of police has given policemen In structions to accept no excuses and con done no offenses, but to enforce the new ordinance literally.
