It o'clock , In the .west part of own as a young lady whose name we will not mention was M'oadlng , she lotlced that one of the window shades waH hardly down , leaving perhaps six nchCH of the window bare , and framiM n ( he six Inches , brightly Illuminated > y the lamp , was a Euan's face. The rest of the family had retired and were called , but before they could appear on the scono'tho peeper had made his escape. The countenance of bin pop- ershlp was Indelibly llxed upon the memory of the young ludy and It IH possible that an arrest , may follow. The breath of winter which has been threatening for several days set- lied down In earnest from the north this morning and has enveloped this vicinity in a chilliness that bears a close resQiublance. to the outer edges of the real thing. The scurrying clouds and the howling waves of breeze , are promising that there will bo a continuance of the tetnperature for some days "and It may become worse. The minimum temperature re corded last night , however , was twen ty above , and there Is a matter of doubt whether Boreas will be able to again depress the mercury as low as zero this season. The several warm weeks with which February closed and March opened , have warmed the air and the soil until if winter Is to again reign ho will be compelled to exert himself In a December fashion. The firemen's benefit performance ' of Shakespeare's "Twelfth Night" at the Auditorium last night when Jo seph Shlpman presented Miss Charlotte - lotto Burnett as Viola , was not of ma terial benefit to the fire fighters. The agreement was that the firemen were to have the receipts from the enter tainment when they should exceed $ MO , but they did not get that high. The company was fairly good , and all know of the character of the play which has been on the boards off and on for the past 400 years , but there was lent and other things to take into consideration and the "standing room only" sign was not displayed. The company was evenly balanced and their interpretation of , one of the best comedies of the immortal bard was very satisfactory. Miss Burnett at times showed great strength , contrast ing the , girl's timidity of battle and the Idea of how a man should plead his love. F. .T. McCarthy as Sir Toby Belch and Joseph Wilson ns Sir An drew Aguecheek were prime favorites while Geo. L. Seybolt approvingly car ried out Shakespeare's Idea of Mai- vollo , the easily flattered steward. Throughout the company was very carefully selected. A rare treat of the evening was the orchestra music by the nine local performers , who gave the best of the season In that line and their work was doubtless appreciated by the audience although there was a lack throughout the evening of the evidence that usually goes with ap preciation. TITTERINGTON FOUND GUILTY. Alleged Cattle "Rustler" Convicted of Larceny. North Platte , Neb. , March'10. The jury In the case of the state against1 Tltterington , returned a verdict of guilty as charged. The jury'had been out for about twenty-four honrn vhen the verdict was returned. Delmar Til- terlngton , the defendant , was charged with unlawfully converting to his own use cattle given Into his "possession by George Bently. The evldercf was very conflicting , the strongest being the testimony of Lee Case , who had been Jointly charged with Tltterington In another offense. Case pleaded guil ty after having been in Jail. ft > r some weeks. Tltterington and Case had been partners In the bntehoi business In the town of Sutherland , and Tltter ington had a trial last week. In which the Jury disagreed and were dis charged. It Is stated that the present case will be carried to the supreino conr ( for reversal , the evidence showing that there was a dispute of accounts between the complaining witness and the defendant , and that the defendant claimed that the plaintiff was Indebt ed to him for $125 moro than the com plaining witness admits , and the de fendant says he took the caltlo In pay ment of the debt. The second trial of * the stnto against Del Titterington for cattle stealing Is now being tried. Winslde Bujldlngs. It. II. Reynolds of this city has se cured a contract at Wlnsldo for build ing two brick structures there , one for a hardware store and the other for a general store.

THE CONTRACTORS CLAIM IT Capital City Brick nnd Tile Company Say That the Bricks In the Wlnu Th.it Was Not Rebuilt Belong to Them Appropriation Bill Changed , According to a Lincoln report It seems that the Capital City Pipe and Irlck company which constructed the tew cottages at thu Norfolk asylum s making a claim to the ruins that the legislature IH seeking to rebuild. \ penalty for delay In Mulshing the mlldlngs may lie enforced by the state under the contract and the. In- 'ormatlon IH that through some agree- nent had , the contracting company claims a right to the brick and mate- lal In the rnliiH sought to he rebuilt. The matter came out In testimony sub- nltted to the committee that Is acting mder the Jones resolution. The In ference in this was that this right was jhtalned through Stale Architect Tv er who had derived bis authority from he state board of public lands and mlldlngs. If this right exists , It Is a surprise to many as at one time , Trea surer Mortonson , a member of the ward , stopped the company from us- ng material in the new cottages that they were getting out. of the ruins. The bill.that has passed the house making an appropriation of Jlifi.OOO to rebuild the burned building at the Norfolk * asylum was * amended to cut out all provision for the construction of new cottages so that the state board might not see ( It again to hulhl cottages and not to rebuild the burned Imllding. The claim of the contract ors has since been made known to the committee nnd some members of the legislature are considering in what condition the state would bo with an appropriation to rebuild ruins 'the state did not own. It Is understood that the contract ors have sought to yield their right to the nilns. If any. In return for a clean bill on the penalty of $10 a day for delay In completing the now buildings at Norfolk. It was to have been com pleted last November but Is not yet finished. The penalty will undoubtedly bo en forced. Architect Tyler had nothing to do with the ruins. The board's contract agrees to pay the contractor so much a thousand for brick from the ruins laid In the new buildings and a certain price for each cubic foot of stone taken from the ruins , hut the right to say what part of the rnlns should be torn down was exercised by the state board. Architect Tyler did require the contractor to .comply with the plans and was ( bo cause of re moving Mr. Hester from the work on account of incompetency. Mr. Hester has since testified against Mr. Tyler. Warnervllle. Harry Morris Is shipping baled hay to Omaha. Fred Terry went to Tilden Tuesday to visit his parents. N. L.

BISHOPS CANNOT AGREE ON THE MAN TO BE HONORED. MAY BE ONE FOR GERMANY Pope Has Interviewed American Prc- Intes nnd It Has Been Determined Not to Name n Cardinal at the Con sistory Next Week , or for some Time Homo , March 0. It can bo un- loimccd on the highest authority that 10 now American cardinal will bo reatcd at thu consistory next week Several things make this absolutely ertaln. It Is believed that had thu ate Archbishop Corrlgan of Now York ived ho Vould have been made a prince of the church and the same loner bestowed on Archbishop Ire land of St. Paul. This would have given the conservatives and llboralH In America each a new cardinal. The death of the New York prelate put an end to this plan. The pope has Inter viewed every American prelate who lias come to Home since his elevation to the chair of St. Peter regarding the claims of the church in America to a larger representation In the sacred college. As a result of these Inter views he is convinced , it Is said , that the American bishops are anything but unanimous regarding the choice of the prelate to be BO honored. This renders It absolutely certain that no new American cardinal will bo creat ed for some time. As to the possibility of a foreign cardinal being chosen from some I2u- ropean nation other than Italy , It Is the general opinion here that If such a selection is made it will ho that of a new cardinal do curia for Germany , whoso creation has recently been ar ranged with the German government.
