parties to the action reside at Avoca.
Constable G. D. Quinton took the
defendant to Avoca this morning:,
wheio he was to furnish a bond

prisoner standing- outside. When
Quinton reappeared his man was gone,
ani he at once realized what a serious
mistake he had made. Although the
officer and several Avoca citizens are
making a thorough search of the

accounts no trace of Walker has been
found. ,

COL. COD V MAKES A SPEECH
Tells Kansas l'eople That ' ICoontvelt
Is the American Cyclone.
Governor Roosevelt, who is "at pres
ent making a tour of Kansas is being
warmly welcomed at every point where
he stops. A dispatch from Junction
City, Kan., to tho State Journal gives
tho following account of the reception
given him at that place by Buffalo B Ill's
soldics and Indians:
'When the train arrived at Junction
City a great surprise awaited the gov
ernor. Drawn up m - line on their
horses wero 'Buffalo Bill's' soldiers
and Iadians in costume and a largo
crowd of people. A dozen or mora of
the soldiers were found to have been
members of the governor's own regi
ment who were with him in Cuba.
When the train stopped Colonel Cody,
in the picturesoue dress of a pioneer
frontiersman, appeared at the rear of
the coach and was warmly creeled by
tho gpvernor. Aftor Governor lioose-
velt had concluded his remarks of a
fo.v minutes' duration, he introduced
Colonel Cody to the crowd. Colonel
Cody said: - . -
"'Ladies and Gentlemen: Governor
Roosevelt is tho American cyclonc.and
I don't wonder that some have taken
to their cellars. Tho 'Wild West' is
here not to make political speeches.
The ticket Governor Roosevelt repre
sents is already elocted, and all they
have got to do is to show down and
take the pot. Everj mile of Kansas
has been covered and won with blood.
Wo had to expand. Kansas is still ex
panding. Ths state was then known
as 'Bleeding Kansas.' It is no longer
'Bleeding Kansas.' It is one of the
great states of the union.'
'At this point the train moved IT
and Colonel Cody's oration was cut
short. When he arrived at Iluthison
the governor was much worn by his la
bors of the day and after a reception
and k brief address, retired to rest."
An Iiuportaut Ouestlon.
The question sometimes arises
whether a man is entitled to vote at an
election held on the dry preceding tiie
twenty-first anniversary of his birth.
Blackstonc, in his Commentaries, bonk
1, page 403, says: "Full age in mule
or female is twenty-one years, which
age is completed on tho aay preceding
iho anniversarj7 of a person's birth.
who. till that time, is an infant, and eo
styled in law." Tho late Chief Jus
tice Sharswood,in his edition of Black-
stones Commentaries, quotes Chris
tian's note on the above a9 follows: "If
he is born on tho l(th of February,
1C0.S, he is of age to do any legal act on
the morning of the loth of February,
1G20, though ho maj' not have lived
twenty -one years by nearly forty-cighl
hours. The reason assigned is that in
law there is no fraction of a day; and if
the birth wero on tho lat second of
one day and the act on tho first second
of the preceding day twenty-ooe years
after, then twenty-one years would bf;
complete; and in the law it is the same
whether a thing is done upon one mo
ment of tho day or another." The
same high authority (Sharswocd) adds
in a note of his own: "A person is of
full ago tho day before the twenty-tirst
anniversary of his birthday."

IJIG CITY'S SUKKOUNDIXGS
,1'lctnre That Is Visible from the Mew
Yorx Life ltatidlnr. Omaha.
A writer in yesterday's Omaha News
gives an interesting account of the
beautiful surroundings which can be
seen from the top of ; the New York
Life building at that placew As it is
interesting reading to people of east
ern Nebraska generally, THE News
reprints a portion of the. article aa
follows:
"Nono but those who have entered
the elevator of the New York Life
building, been whirled upward to the
tenth story, and then clambered into
the observation tower, can appreciate
the delightful scene that surrounds
Omaha.
"Strange as it may seem, but a very
small proportion of the people of this
city have availed themselves of this
rare treat, yet hundreds from all over
the country, who have visited Omaha,
are familiar with Omaha's surround
ings. This fact recalls what Mr. Lin
mger once paid: That the people of
Omaha knew too little about Omaha,
and too much about eomo other place.
"There are few prettier pictures than
that w"hich greets the eye of the ob
server on this lofty pinnacle. Looking
off to the east the first thing to attract
attention are the muiky waters of the
Missouri, as it wends its way though a
country fertile to the very banks.
Spanning its bosom aro seen three
great steol and. wood structures, the
Union Pacific traffic way, the Douglas
steel bridge, and the Terminal bridge.
All of these cause-ways are alive with
activity. There are steam care and
puffing engines, street cars, wagons,
carriages and pedestrians, each ap
parently in a hurry to reach the oppo
site 6ide from the starting place.
"Just over this bluff range, and a
little to the east from where Oreapolis
once stood, cm bo seen the blue emoke
as it rises from the old river town of
1'latUmouth. Here, too, can be soen
tho dim outline of tho Platte river, as
it takes its course from tho far west to
mingle with tho waters of the Missouri,
near Oreapolis.
"As ono scans the view in this direc
tion, watches the eun glistening on the
waters of the rivers, and sees trains of
cars as they make their way up along
the bank, it is hard to realize the won
derful changes that have taken place
thoro in the last quarter of a century.
In thor-c days the old time sido-wheeler
provided the means of transportation.
and the river was seldom free from
some of tho craft.
"To tho north a field-garden is
spread out, t-o enchantingly beautiful
that the eyes could fiast thereon fur
hours without becoming weary. Well
laid out farm?, orchnrds laden with
ripening fruit, pastures in which feed
leek cattle and bloodod horses, well
built and neatly painted houses, all sot
down there as if by the hand of a magi
cian. yet in truth the fruits of energetic
men and women Nebraska's kings and

queens." ; , .
