! -Slier ulan and Fall Holding the Fort.
JLincoln special to the Omaha 3Jcc
Tlie trouble at the institution fo
feeble minded youth at ] 5ea trice is stil
xmsettled , and both Sheridan and Di
1'all are holding the fort , the board o
public lands and buildings having rc
fused to recognize the authority of Di
Fall to dischai-ge Sheridan. Th
board will ask for specific charges an
proof before an/ one is discharged.
The trouble came to light severs
days ago , when Ti\ ) Fall came to Lir
coin and announced to the board tha
lie would resign unless Sheridan wa
discharged. The consultation seems nc
to have been satisfactory to the docto ;
and he went back to Beatrice and dis
charged Sheridan on his own authority
Sheridan refuses to be discharged am
thus the matter stands.
From inquiry it is learned that th
trouble at Reatricc originates fron
the impossibility of Sheridan and hi
wife to get along smoothly with th
social circle , presided over by tin
superintendent and his wife , and tin
jnatron of the institution , and Slier
idan claims the intention is to frees *
.him out and .secure the appointment o
-a stewarfc who possesses more brillian
social qualities. The board natural !
refuses to decide on this society qucs
tion. and it is not known at this tiur
whether the tmwarranted discharge o
Sheridan will be ignored , or whethe
Dr. Fall's resignation will be accepted

Makes Estimate of Cost.
At a recent meeting of the executi
committee of the Trnns-Mississi ]
exposition Manager Kirkendall. chef
of the depax-tment of buildings a
grounds , submitted an estimate of t
probative cost of preparing the groun
and buildings , which had been pi
pared by himself and General Super :
tendent Geraldine , and asked for t
advice and opinions of the other me
bers of the committee. For the fii
time the committee had before it t
consideration of the details of constrx
tion and the session was an auimat
one , lasting all the afternoon , and i
adjournment was taken in order
give this most important matter st
further consideration.
The estimate presented by Mr. K
kcndall was explained by that gent
man as being a rough approximate
designed to acquaint the members
the committee with the probable cc
Df an exposition constructed along t
lines which have been laid down. J
said the list in question did not incln
the buildings to be erected by tl
federal government or the state
Nebraska , but was only designed
include the buildings to be erected 1
the exposition association. The es
mate was as follows :
Administration building St".1

It was the unanimous opinion of tl
members of the committee that the a
ministration building should b :
mposing structure , in which each <
; he states should have a suite of roon
set apart for its commissioner.s ar
risitors. The executive offices of tl
ixposition will also be located in th
milding.
Members of the committee wei
manimous on the point that the agt
sultural feature of the exposition mu
) e one of the most prominent , in hont
> f the importance of the agricultur ;
ndustx-y of the entire Trans-M ississip
egion.
The auditorium will be an immen ;
itructure. a duplicate of the worl
amous Mormon tabernacle in Sa
Jake City , the most perfect auditoriui
n the world. It will probably be coi
trueted of steel framework in such
nanner that it may be x-emoved wlie
he exposition is over and erected nci
he business center of town.
A special feature will be made of th
ive stock exhibit , and extensive pn
arations will be made to make tha
ne of the most attractive department :
