Neb., Feb. 10 Senator Fred Volpp has bis campaign for the gubernatorial nomination well under way. He Is grooming himself now to look like a governor. In order to keep up his spirits when adversity arises, he has prepared a little book In which he pastes all newspaper com ment on hla candidacy. Recently a Bohemian paper In Chicago men tioned his aspirations. Volpp had the article translated Into English and German and Is displaying the notice to his friends. The senate adjourned today until 2 p. m. Monday without even getting through the regular order of 'busi ness. Only a few more than a Quo rum were present when the motion was passed.

Con stitutional amendments now require a majority of all votes cast at an elec tion. Hoagland proposes this as an alternative for the Initiative and ref erendum. In case the latter Is defeat ed. When the Benate again considers the measure he will ask that It be re committed for the purpose of amend lng It so that 35 per cent, at least, of all votes cast must be cast affirma tively In order to carry the amend ment. This Is the same provision that is Incorporated In the Initiative and referendum In order to do away with small minority rule. The Sunday baseball bill is due for some hard sledding, according to re port. It is asserted that Governor Aldrich, following out the policy In dicated In his county option cam paign, his appeal for ihe church vote and his accusations of election fraud in Omaha, will refuse to sign the measure. It would probably be Im possible to r&ss the bill over the gov ernor's veto. Representative McArdle thinks Benson a good location for a state hospital for epileptics. A bill for the creation of such an Institution has been Introduced by Liver and Mc Ardle has submitted to the committee an amendment which would place the Institution In his home town. He believes this hospital should be locat ed sufficiently near a large city that it will have the benefit of the medical assistance to be found In a big hos pital and medical center, such as Omaha.

Nine Members Explain Reason for Position Unfairness to Lincoln iirned and Another Measure I Framed to Meet This Objection. v Lincoln, Feb. 11. Capital removal was defeated on the final vote in the house In spite of Wednesday's decision in the committee of the whole to pass it. The vote was 58 to 38. It Is the general opinion that the activity of the Lancaster delegation and Lincoln citizens during the last few days In persuading members against thia spe cific measure, on the ground that it is unfair to Lincoln, caused the downfall of the bill. Nine members explained their votes in writing, and Taylor of Hitchcock, Quackenbush, Busnee, Evans. Stebbins, Baker, Colton, Walte and Bassett gave the unfairness to Lincoln as a reason. Hardin said that his constituents In Harlan county do not want the capital removed. II. It. 246. the bill defeated, was In- ti educed by Bailey and twenty-six others. The accusation of unfairness, which was first brought by the Lan caster county opposition, is based up on the fact that a line is drawn along the ninety-seventh meridian- and no town east of that is allowed to com pete for the location. The Lincoln men have been contending that even It It Is decided to throw the question of removal open to a vote or the people, and they do decide for It, there should be no territory set aside In which the caDital cannot be placed and that Lin coln should have a chance to re-entei the race even if once shut out by an affirmative vote to remove. This ob lection has been answered In various ways, but the idea that perhaps it was being made Into a race between Lin coln and the whole field has grown and the defeat of the bill was the re sult. New Removal Bill Introduced. Biillcy, Introducer of the measure, said after It was over: "The fight had to bo carried right here Into the enemy's country and the Lancaster people were able finally to defeat us by superior organization. Prince of Hall, the strongest sup norter of the bill, said: "We have a new bill that will eliminate every pos sible chnnce of complaint for unfair ness, and wo will make these members who have been using that as an ex cuse either change their votes or tell a better reason for opposing it." The new bill, Introduced by Bailey of Buffalo and Prince and Sink of Hall. Drovldes that the Question of cap ital removal shall be submitted In a regular election and If it is carried every town in the state which can got a petition signed by 500 citizens can enter the competition. Then the city receiving a majority of the votes will get the sent of government. The assertion that the wets were the supporters of the capital removal bill was discredited by an analysis of the votes on the ouestlon. Those aeainst it were sixteen wets and for ty-two drys and for it thirty-two drys and six wets. Those who changed their votes from support to opposition on capital removal were Bassett. Bolnnd, Brecht Bushee, Eggenberger, Hardin, Holmes Lindsay, Matrau, McClelland, Nelr Nelson. Nordgren, Taylor of Merrick Taylor of Hitchcock, and Waite. Those who changed from opposition to sup port were Fuller of Seward and Dostal of Butler. Bill to StOD Coursing. The house debated the humane bill of Taylor of Hitchcock against cours ing meets for somo time and finally recommended it for passage. The do bate brought out a number of lncrim inations of brutality and as a counter charge poor sportsmanship. Football and baseball and horse racing were dragged into the discussion as similar aiuusoments and no less reprehensible Murphy of Saline county, a resident of Friend, was the strongest oppo nent of the bill, as the national cours lne meet is held in his town. II. R. 4, appropriating $54,000 for a new science building for the Wayne normal, was recommended for pas sage, and also II. R. 202, by Baker of York, which is designed to make the enforcement of the antlpass law easier by making it simpler to prove the fact of use. The county option bill for the house was Introduced and will bo carried through to a vote to put all the mem bora on record. There Is of course no hope of making it a law, as the senate Is definitely opposed to It. It Is In troduced as II. R. 392, by Norton. Bartog Pushes Insurance Bills. Senator Bartos of Saline stood sin gle handed against his own insurance committee in the senate and succeed ed In getting placed on general filo five of his own bills, which the com mlttco had decided to shelve ty Indcfl into postponement. It is said that tho bills are opposed by the insurance companies in Nebraska and by most of the fraternal companies, but are In general agreement with tha policies of most of the old line companies from the east. t 25 DISCOUNT SALE NOW ON!

An Interesting Story About One of the "Rollicking Giriiei" Every successful producer Is famil iar with the young girl who feels that she has a mission in life, and that mission is to sway the emotion of people across a row of Incandescent lights. As a first step toward such an end, the young girl la suro to write a letter of Inquiry as to how she shall go to work to bring distinc tion to her native village. Although such letters are sent to almost every popular producer, it can safely be said that Jack Mason, the producer of the New Rentz-Santley Company, has made many villages famous by bring ing to its town famous stars whom he trained in choruses in his many Broadway productions. Most letters sent of this nature often reach their destination In some convenient wick er receptacle handy to the desk. How ever, Jack Mason, the present owner of the New Rentz-Santley Company which Is billed for the popular Gayety at Omaha week starting Sunday mat! nee, February 12th, has never failed to answer any inquiry sent him. To this he owes much of his success in producing the best choruses ever put out In Broadway productions. One day lant week Mason received one of his usual many Inquiries. Af tor mentioning half a dozen reasons why the dazzling light of her genius should not be obscured by parental opposition In Michigan City, Indiana, the embryo star added as the most Important of facts, that "Everyone who knew her snld she looked just like an actress." It was this state ment that brought the following reply from Mr. Mason: "If, as you say, wrote the producer, "your personal appearance Is such that everyone says 'you look just like an actress,' you are most unfortunate. The bet ter class of players are more annoyed by having their occupation detected by the casual observer. Try to over come this misfortune while you are young, my dear girl," was the advice sent back in return to the young lady from Indiana. A few weeks later when rehearsing a big production, Mr. Mason found this one from In diana. She turned out to be the best worker I nthe crowd, and is now with his own big show, "The Rollicking Girlies," which the Rentz-Santley company will present. ENTERTAINS CLASSMATES From Saturday's Daily.

The card games were progressive, and the first prize was carried off by Miss Horning, while tho second prize was awarded to Miss Lulu Welch.
