"SUNSHINE KILLS CRIME GERMS" Chicago's New City Jail is to Provide for Rays in Every Cell. Chicago , Jan. 17. Chicago is to have a new city jail to be a model for all jails , according to plans now in the hands of the assistant chief of police , Herman F. Schnettler. The new jnil has been planned by Mr. Sohuettler , who has planned and built cloven police stations in Chicago. Instead of being in the damp and unsanitary basement , all cells , 150 in nUmber , will be on the top lloor of the building. Mr. Schuettler has provided for a heavy glass roof , so that every cell will bo bathed in sun light , making the cells cheerful and sanitary instead of breeding places for disease. "Sunshine kills crime germs , " Mr. Schuettler says. The roof of the building , instead of being waste space , is to be devoted to an exercise room for prisoners and a place where those being detained unnecessarily may spend a large share of the daylight hours. One section of the roof will bo reserved for women , and one will provide space for men , arrested for Intoxication , giving them an oppor tunity to steady their nerves and won der at their fate In the open air in stead of In a dismal cell. A Near-Riot at Bonesteel. Fairfax Advertiser : There was great oxcltemont In llonesteel last Sat nrday night , which was occasioned by a row on the streets that grew oul of an attempt by the town marshal tc put Moso Hendrlcks In the city lock up. The wildest kind of rumors wore circulated regarding the real cnuso o the trouble and the magnitude of tlu mlxup. After interviewing some of th ( officers and eye witnesses , the Adver tlser will endeavor to give nn unprc djudlccd account of the unfortunate affair. During Saturday afternoon a number bor of men , among whom was Mos < HendrlckB , were having rather a nols ] time in the saloon run by Magner f 'Walsh. It seems that Mrs. Hendricki had nskcd Moso to come away fron the saloon and go homo with her. II * did not fool Inclined to do so , and six called on Marshal Baldwin to got bin out even If he had to arrest him. Tin marshal succeeded In getting Hond rlckn to leave the saloon , and bo wen to his livery barn about a block fron the saloon. The marshal soon followed od him there and stated that It wai llondrlcks * wlfo request that ho In locked up. This angered llondrlcks and ho declared that ho would not ge : with the olllcor. but would give i bond to keep the poaro , or go to i : justice of the peace for trial. There upon the marshal , with the assistance of a deputy , attempted to take bin by force. A tussle ensued. Hystand ors took part nn both sides , several blows were struck and qulto a llghl took place. It looked like a riot might occur , and States Attorney Donohuo who had been attracted bv the noise telephoned to Sheriff MoMullon nl Fall fax o Iconic up and restore order , as it seemed the marshal would not bo able to do so. The attorney alsc , ordered the saloons to close for the ! time. During the melee Mrs. Ilcndrlcks had been in the crowd , and become greatly excited , and finally became hysterical , and in that condition inn Into her house and shot herself In the side. The bullet struck a rib and glanced , missing the vital organs , and if no complications sot in sbo will probably recover. When It became known that Mrs. Ilendrlcks was shot , the news scorned to shock the men into sensibility and they stopped fighting and soon calmed down. Mrs. Hendricks Is held In high es teem by the citizens of llonesteel , and all nttrlbute her rnsh act to the fnct thnt she became frenzied under the strain of excitement and did not rea lize what she wns doing. The citizens of noncstccl generally deplore the whole affair , and sympa thize with those who through the un pleasant occuronce have been subject ed to much unfavorable criticism. That there is a faction tight In Bonestcol Is no secret. It is contin ually cropping out in one way or another , and It seems the end Is not. yet. It Is also apparent , from the talk of both factions , that the ill feel ing existing between the city officials and the opposing faction had some thing to do with Saturday's trouble. Emerson Murderer Flees. Kmerson , Neb. , Jan. 17. Special to The News : Gus Gerlach , who shot and killed Joseph Lee in n moat mar ket hero the other night , has disap peared. Gerlach stayed around for some time after the murder , but there was no move to arrest him and he sudden ly dropped from view. Mystery surrounds the killing. Lee , who had been working in this locality for about n year and wns re garded as being a little peculiar , had been drinking hard all day and had in his possession a .44 caliber revolver which ho had pulled from his pocket several times , but without threatening anyone. Late in the evening he went Into the back part of Jensen's market , where Gerlach was working , soon af ter which the latter was called to the front of the market to wait on a cus tomer. According to Glen Smith , who was In the back room where the trag edy accurred , as Gerlach returned to the room Lee pulled his revolver from his pocket and Gorlnch , seeing the net , picked up his own revolver , which was lying near him , and shot Lee , killing him almost instantly. There is no evidence that there was any serious quarrel between the two men , and Smith's version of the crime Is thnt Gerlach feared that Lee wns about to shoot him , and concluded to do the Job first. Leo has been regarded ns peculinr , but wns not considered a dangerous character. Neligh Stockmen Organize. A branch of the North Nebraska Live Stock Owners' Protective asso ciation was formed at Neligh Satur day , with sixty members. This is the largest number of members over or ganized into a branch of the associa tion in n given day. Vice President John Krnntz and Organizer G. W. Evans of Norfolk went to Neligh and launched the new offspring of the or ganization. The following officers were elected : President , J. G. Crlnk- law ; vice president , G. D. Slonebreak- er ; secretary , Dave Fletcher ; treasur er , K. S. Payne ; captain , Henry Ruet- zel. The Norfolk men were delighted with the start made in the Antelope county seat. They Relish Rotten Eggs. In South Dakota A. N. Cook , com missioner of the food and drug com mission of thnt stnte , is waging a wai on the sale of bad eggs , having already made ono arrest of shippers at Los' ' terville. It may be of interest tc know that although stale eggs in this country are a hard thing to get rlii of , they are In great demand In the Philippines , where the stale eggs gel a higher market price than do the fresh ones. An egg in which n little chick is about to see daylight are sill ! of greater demand. It is n common thing to see a Fill pine while at luncheon , carefully will his long , well-manicured thumb nail open the top of an egg In which tlu form of a Httlo chick curled up car bo noticed , and proceed with mucl smacking of lips , extract the varloui parts of the egg and devour like ai American girl eating bon bens or the choicest morsels of food. On a native bent going up the Pnslj river In the Philippines vendors o eggs already cooked have nlrendj found out that to offer nn Amerlcnt n "good egg" which is really "bad1 is an insult. When first the Americana entcrcn the Islands , natives endeavored to ex plain the "strength" and "nourish' mont" of an old egg which In their estimation Is much better than one ' newly laid. The above story Is vouched for by Karl Stefan , of The News staff , who found this condition on a trip around the world a few years ago. A Time for Loyalty. Mlnne'apolls Journal : The Journal has from the outset had confidence In Mr. Taft. It believes In him yet , and It will continue to believe In him up to such time Is there Is positive ovl- doiu-o that ho is not honestly socking to put the Roosevelt recommendations into law. Tlup Journal Is in entire sympathy with the insurgent view in th west regarding the tariff , but it Is begin ning to tire of the petty , carping , back biting spirit on the part of some ! po- lltlcal Insurgents who do not , appar ently , wish President Taft success in the legislation ho is striving for. Wo are for that Insurgency which stands for an honest carrying out of the Roosevelt policies , and which stands loyally behind the president of the United States In his efforts to carry out policies thnt insurgents stand for , rather than for the sort of copperhead insurgency thnt pretends to bo n friend when It Is nn enemy. When the Journal suggested Inst spring thnt there was a conspiracy of the "back from Elba" sort , some of the country press were Inclined to regard It as a joke. It was no joke. There was n deliberate conspiracy , and the conspiracy Is still on. The plan Is to elect a democratic congress in order so to handicap President Taft that bo cannot got legislation enacted. Then will come the demand for the return from Elba. This sort of conspiracy is treacher ous and unpatriotic. The Journal must refuse to have anything to do with it. We believe the American people arc fair , and they want a fair fight. Mr. Pinchot has been running about with a chip on bis boulder long enough. We arc glad that the president knock ed it off , no matter what the consequences quences may bo. Some of Mr. Roosevelt's personal friends may seek by unfair means to discredit Mr. Taft , but a few more state papers of the strong and positive character of the president's latest mes sage will win friends fast. The people who arc running about discrediting the president are men who have not read or will not rend his nessage. They affect not to know thnt we have in the white house a remark ably clear and constructive statesman. The best answer to all the carping about lack of results is the president's message. It marks an era In presi dential documents. It puts the issue straight to congress. It does all that any president can do to bring about the orderly and sane civilization of the best things in Theodore Roosevelt's call to the country. It is a masterly and n sincere statement of the presi dent's position. Supt. Hunter Made President.

Hun ter of Norfolk was elected president , Superintendent E. K. Hurst of Fnlls City for vice president , President W. [ I.
