secure the bamin. It Is reported

none of this. They told the land man

OVER BANKS AT PIERCE.
No Damage From Water Anticipated
Unless From Ice.
Pierce , Neb. , March 3. Special to
The News : The water has been run
ning rapidly in the river at this point
the past twelve hours. It Is now over
the embankments and running around
the dam on both sides. It Is not
thought much damage will bo done
unless the Ice , which has not yet
broken up , forms a Jam. There are
many high drifts of snow on the ice
which may cause considerable dam
age when the Ice breaks up.

Taft Policies Are Outlined.
Washington , March 2. The five
subjects of broad policy with whlcli
the new president will start his ad
ministration are authoritatively out
lined as follows :
The Philippines come first , largelj
because Mr. Taft , against his will
was sent there by President McKinley
Second Is the Panama canal. He hat
visited the Isthmus five times. Hi
began his work on the isthmus whei
he took charge of it as secretary ol
war five years ago. Mr. Taft believes
that the canal was acquired honestly
and that the lock system is the propei
one on whlcli to build Ihe canal.
Third , Iho new president is decide !
in his views about judicial proceednn
in the enforcement of the laws. Hi
will ask of congress only such add !
tional laws as may seem to him and ii
the five lawyers In his cabinet to b <
necessary. Some of these laws wll
repeal some that are on the fedora
statutes , or at least amend them.
Will Perfect Corporation Laws.
It is Mr. Taft's idea , built on tin
foundation of his career as a Judge
to put every law governing great cot
poratlons lu such perfect shape tha
the beginning of an action will meai
Its successful ending , if the evidenci
justifies success.
Fourth comes the "breaking of tin
solid south. " Briefly , the "referee
2"w
system , In which ono or n very fov
men lu each southern stale hav <
dictated federal appointments becans (
of political services , Is to be abolished
Has Navy Reorganization Plan ,
And "In the back of his head" Mi
iTaft has the reorganization of th :
navy department and the Increase a
the navy.
President Taft will labor to reslor
confidence , to encourage commercln
ami industrial enterprise , to reassur
Investors , that capital may bccom
active
l Mr Taft is friendly to organize
labor , and will assist In securing fo
labor such remedial legislation as h

Judicious Close to His Affections.
Perhaps the branch of government :
closest to Mr. Taft's affections Is thes
judiciary. He has told his frlouds
that the judiciary must bo kept above
reproach. Such mon as Mr. Taft ap
points to the bench will ho seln-ied
for known ability and personal char
acter.
i The now president Is an onlhiiRluHt

sources , and can bo depended upon to
, take up the work where Mr. ROOKO-

provement of rivers and harbors ulnra

mitted to the deep-waterway project
from the lakes to the gulf.
In Harmony With Congress.
In his dealings with congress Presi
dent Taft will present a striking con
trast to President Roosevelt. Mr.
- Roosevelt has boon al odds with con-
1
gross for a long lime. There is nbun-
, ' dnnco of evidence- that Mr. Taft aniX
the legislative branch of the govorir-
mont are to work in harmony.
- DIRECTOIRE HAT.
,
. Milliners Cut Pie Shaped Slice Out off
Brim to Accommodate Hairdressers.
Chicago , Fob. 2(5. ( EinPrgi-noli-B
mold destinies Shakespeare has ex
pressed the fact In language sllghtlyr
different. It was proved last ovonluy :
to hold good even In the destiny of
the spring hat. The new style IB
being shown at the convention of the
National Association of Retail Millin
ers , and it owes its ornamental exis
tence to the sudden rise to favor of
the psyche knot. It consists of a per
fectly normal brim around Ihroo-
quarters of the crown , with a pio-
slmped piece removed from its cir
, cular course across the roar , and
through this crevlco rises in monumental
mental billows the Intricacies of the
new psyche knot.
Its existence doubtless ib accounted
for on the ground that the hairdress
ers "beat all others to it" in estab
lishing the proportions and angle of
tholr newest style , and with the ills-
, regard , noticeable In art , of ether con
siderations , placed the- knot in a posi
tion Interferrliig with all headgear.
e Thus , making virtue out of their
necessity , the milliners made an open
ing for the new cell and converted it
into the decoration of the season.
In ono of the dliectoire hats thia
opening Is topped by a long , fiat bow
of soft satin ribbon with stroa-norF.
that draw under the chin , outlining
in tholr course the artistic lines of thw
psyche knot. In another , the opt-nluK
Is bound in bright colored satin , ani
flowers are placed on Its edge to faia
