John Trumble Claims That Is the
Price Contracted For.
Claims to Have Sold 5,000 Bushel of Ills
Corn Crop to the Arm-it Dealer at that
Flfore Was the Outcome of a Politi
cal Argument Other News of Im
portance. John Trumble, a farmer from near
Avoca, came to town yesterday in
search of a lawyer to whom he could
relate a tail of woe. He soon ran onto
II. D. Travis, and taking him for a
man wno would he willing to share
bis trouble!", pioceedcd to enlighten
him.
It seems that Mr. Trumble was
and possibly is yet an ardent admirer
of W. J. Bryan. During the cam
paign be espoused the principles
of Bryan at every opportunity
and as a result was en
gaged in frequent political argu
ments. While in Avoca one day prior
to the election he became involved in
a heated discussion with Fred Bartell,
of the firm of Bartell & Wilkinson,
the Avoca grain buyers. Mr. Bartell
is a gold standard man and in painting
the good features of his side
of the question and pointing out
the bad ones of the free silver
cause, made the assertion thut in case
Bryan was elected silver would de
crease in value to 50 cents ou the dol
ar. Mr. Trumble did not believe this, of
course. He told the grain buyer tnat
he was harvesting a large crop of
corn, so the 6tory goes, and that he
would contract then and there to de
liver to him 5,000 bushels of the same
for 25 cents a bushel, regardless or the
outcome of the election, and would
take his pay in 6ilver; that he - would
take his chances on silver decreasing
in value. lie claims that the bargain
: wa9 agreed to by Mr. Bartell and that
they entered into a verbal contract
for the sale and delivery of 5,000
bushels of corn at 25 cents a bushel
and that be has as witness to the con
tract two reputable citizens of Avoca.
Mr. Bartell now refuses to receive the
corn.
Mr. Travis has been retained to
look after Mr. Trumblo's interests in
the matter and suit will probably be
brought to force the grain buyers to
.live up to the alleged contract. Should
Mr. Trnmble win his case it would
prove quite an expensive argument
for the Avoca grain dealer, as corn is
.worth about 10 cents a bushel at the
present time a difference of 15 cents
per bushel. The outcome of the case
will be watched with great interest.
"EX-AUDITOR MOORE'S SHORTAGE.
Says He Will lie Enabled to Reimburse
the State.
LINCOLN', Feb. 1". The bonusmen
of ex-Auditor Eugene Moore hold
another conference todiy in the office
of Attorney General Smyth. Willis
E. Reed of Madison, who, with At
torney Harry Brome of Omaha, has I
been retained by Moore, was present
at the conference. Mr. Heed said to
night that he anticipated criminal pro
ceedings would be commenced tomor
row against his client. He added that
the attorney general might, however,
decide to begin a civil suit for the bal
ance owing by Moore, $23,000. Moore
says he has a oue-third interest in a
mine in Colorado, for which he would
not take $100,000. It now nets $1,500
a month and Moore is ready to pay
$500 a month to the state on his in
debtedness. Attorney Reed says that the law of
1873 provided that those insurance
fees should be paid to the state audi
tor. The constitution of 1S75 ameuded
this law and made all fees received by
any state department payable in ad
vance to the state treasurer. Hence,
the bondsmen of Moore assert that
they are not liable, as Moore has no
right to receive the fees. Mr. Reed
says that this will, he believes, be a
good defense in a criminal action.
Attorney General Sunytb said firmly
today that something must be doue in
the matter or an arrest would be
made. This is what Attorney Reed
expects and he is making preparations
for defense. Mr. Moore said tonight
that he was doing all he could to lix
this matter up, and that ff given time
the state would not lose a cent.
- It is Attorney Reed's opinion that
II criminal auuuu ,uuntutui-v
Slate will never realize a dollar,as the
6upreme court has held the point he
will raise on the constitutionality of
the payment of the fees to the treasur
er good.

THE CONTRACTS AWARDED.
The Firms Selected to Io Cass County's
Work Next Year.
Today was the day upon which the
various county contracts were awar
ded by the county commissioners. The
first one which claimed the attention
of the board was that for building the
bridges. There were several bidders
and two of them tied, one being J. II.
Sheeley & Co., but owing to the fact
that the latter firm had been doing
the work in a satisfactory manner for
two or three years they were awarded
the contract, but at a reduction of
'J.2 cents per foot over the price paid
last year. The price per foot this year
is $2.09. Following is a list of the bid
ders and the amount:

The bids for the county printing
were then opened. Nearly every pa

The contract was awarded to L. J.
Mayfield of the Louisville Courier,
as follows:

Treasurer's statement 2 U0
The Louiseillo Courier was the offi
cial county paper last year and prices
paid were: Court docket, 15 cents;
road notices,20 cents; treasurer's state
ment?, $4. Thus it will be seen that a
reduction was also made in this con
tract over last year. The Tribune of
this city made a bid of 7 cents percasa
on the court docket and the other
work in propotion, being the lowest
bidder, but the publication was not
considered as legal by the board eo
the bid was thrown out
The contract for the burial of pau
pers was awarded to Ftreight & Sal
tier of this city at a slight reduction
over the price paid last year.
FOOTPADS IN SHAFERTOWN.
Woman Knocked Into Insensibility While
Doing the Evening Chores.
A man residing up in Shafertown
had a postal order cashed last evening
for $S. He weut home and the wife
said that if he would take care of the
baby, as she had been cooped up in
the house all day, she would
go OJt and feed the team.
The bargain was agreed to, and the
wife went out to the stable to feed the
team and just as she entered the door
someone gave her a stunning blow on
the side of her head, which knocked
her senseless for a moment. The man
then seeing it was a women ho had
knocked down, 'fled at once. It is
thought he was lying in wait for the
$8, and intended robbing the head of
the house, but his plans were foiled.
This is not intended as an argument
in favor women doing the evening
work. Elmer Monroe is our authority
for the story but he could not remem
ber the man's name.

He Slakes a Good living and Would Rather
Be a Painter For Beggars Than a Beggar
Painter How the Pictures Are Vsed and
What He Charges For Them.
A new school of art has been discov-
ered. So far as known, this city has its
sole professor, and he is as odd as his
art. But this is the source whence come
the thrilling pictures which the beggar,
maimed, halt or blind, displays when
he mournfully relates just how he was
injured and strives to impress upon the
charitable how deserving he is of aid.
In one of the shabbiest streets of the
city, away down in a basement, a flick
ering gas flame lights the studio of this
queer genius. It is a place of business
Kuch as would appall the well dressed
"banker, but it is no exaggeration to say
that its occupant has an income which
many more pretentious painters would
rejoice to receive.
Technique and perspective meet witn
small consideration at the hands of this
king of the beggars, for such he seems
to be. To watch ingress and egress of
liis patron would give a stranger the
impression that some philanthropist had
established a charity hospital in the
basement.
When the writer paid a visit to this
unique studio the other day, the artist
was found attired in a pair of overalls
and a greasy woolen shirt, as guiltless
of ornamentation at the nock as was
the neck itself of acquaintance with soap
and water. A bushy beard that had evi
dently been brown in other dnys covered
the lower portion of the artist's face,
and his shocky hair stood up in indig
nant protest against the posribility of
invasion bv brush or comb. From tinder
rather bushy brows a keen pair of eyes
looked out. Mind was decidedly in evi
dence ; conventionality was below par.
Both cleanliness and godliness were
ciuite ignored.
The furniture of the studio consisted
of an old couch covered with a mate rial
which in days gone by had probably
been verv nrcttv chintz. Now it was
thoroughly disguised by the accumu
lation of dirt. A real rag carpet cover
ed the floor, but not a single picture
-was hung upon the walls, although
.standing alxmt the room were several
pictures in various stages of rogress.
Permission was asked to examine them,
and they were well worth peeing.
One was a lurid representation of a
powder explosion. So realistic was the
picture that if you cared to place your
finger on what were alleged to be burn
ing grains of powder you could feel that
the grains were there, though the artist presented the entire 12, those who could

exmosion robbed him of. The object of
the painting was to show the charitable nation spoon," preserved among the
stranger just how it happened, and the other royal relics in the tower of Lon
artist said that in his mind there was don. The bowl is of gold and the han-
no doubt that his legless patron would
greatly benefit by the scene thus placed
on canvas,
There was another picture, whic h rep
resented the blowing up of a man-of-war.
'The flames that spoutod from the decks
of the unfortunate vessel were far more
red than tho light that shines from the
chimneys of an iron mill at night. Ka
ture has never succeeded in producing
:anvthing ciuite so glowing as unmiti
gated red paint, and there was no lack
of it in this picture. The persons who
were sailing about in the air seemed to
ihave suffered frightful injuries, and the
artist said that this was purely to in-
voke sympathy for his customer, who
was supposed to be ono of the actors in
;the scene so graphically portrayed.
The price of such paintings varies
Ifrom $3 to $12. Hie artist can complete
aue in about 11-2 hours, if he does not
Ihurrv. If it is a rush order, the work
cau be concluded within an hour,
though in that case the price is increas
ed somewhat. When asked if he made
:muoh money by this sort of work, the
:artist replied that he did; that he gained
.more than many painters who were
striving to do great things are able to
secure. His patrons were generally
prompt pay indeed the usual terms are
cash on delivery.
As for embarking in higher art, the
rartist would have none of it. He tersely
remarked that he would rather be a
painter for beggars than a beggar paint
er, and as he waved a goodby there was
a contented look on his face, which
showed that he meant exactly what he
said. Philadelphia Press.

SPOONS.
The Bate of Their Origin I nknown, Tney
Are So Very Ancient.
If you desire to know about the scar
city of really reliable data on the histc-
ry of spoons, take down your handbooks
and encyclopedias and tee if it doesn't
tate you a longwmie to learn anytniug
concerning their origin, "nativity,"
etc. In fact, the antiquarians do not
pretend to give us anything or value in
that line. It is admitted that they are
'very ancient," but just exactly how
old they are and by whom and where
they were first used are points upon
which we are left completely in the
dark. Creightou says, "Spoons must
have been a very ancient invention, for
a Saxon spoon of eif orated silver gilt,
ornamented with gems, was found in a
grave at Sarre, Thanet."
When forks were unknown, spoons
played a very important part at the ta
ble. Spoons of the thirteenth century,
and even later, had handles terminat
ing in a knob, knot, acorn or other odd
and cumbersome devices. About the
period of the restoration, of which so
much is said in English history, a great
change was made in the forms of
spoons. In some of the unique patterns
the "spoon" part was divided into two,
three and even four parts, and tho han
dle always pplit or twisted and turned
up instead of down and back. Spoons
of that period were ail Diunt liisicati oi
being pointed as m the forms generally
seen at present. They continued short
and blunt down to the time of Oreorge
L when they were first made pointed
and had tho handles turned down in
stead of up.
About the year 1500 what were
known as "apostle spoons" were intro
duced. They were so called because
they had the figures of the 12 apostles
carved upon their handles. They were
generally given by sponsors to children
at their time of baptism. The wealthy
they felt able
The most curious and remarkable
spoon in the world perhaps is a "coro-
die of silver. The handle is pplit down
the middle and set with all kinds of
precious stones. The relic is valued at
about 20,000, or upward of $100,000.
