[ Special toTnn tJnn. ] An effort will bo made to remedy Vhat nro believed to bo the defects in the charter of the city of Lincoln nt the coming session of the state legislature. The main Menu to bo Incorporated In the now charter nro the provisions relative to the control of the iwlleo force , to the disposition of the garbage , to the methods of cleaning the Directs nnd possibly to the manner of letting contracts fur the lighting of the streets. U'ho main contest \\lll no over the control of tbo police force , At present the police force Is under the control of tin excise board of three members , the mayor bulng an cx-ofllclo mem ber of the board. The licensing of sa loons and the power of i\ppoliitmcnt \ and removal of all members of the [ IK > - llco force is vested In this excise board , During the past two years there has been u conflict between the mayor and Ills fellow members on the excise board in which hit honor was In the minority. In consequence ho has for the past year de clined any attempt to use the polleo lorco Of the city for the execution of the laws against pimbllng and other social vices. An effort 111 bo mndo by one class of cltlrcns to have the police force placed under the solo authority of the mayor , while still another class favor the upxjliitnu.'iit | of a lira and pollen commission similar to the one pro vided for by the Omaha city charter , It is probable that n provision will bo In cluded in the charter to enable the city to clean the streets and assess the cost of the Bnino against abutting property and to per mit the city to erect and maintain its own electric lighting plant.

It was half an hour past the specified time when the contesting sides got down to bus !

The objections were overruled as soon as the notaries found an opportunity to got In a word , and Mr. Blair then announced that they were not ready to proceed in the iii- Rcnatorial contest , as another notary had la- been engaged to act for them in that case , laof but said that the coast was cjear for the con ms testants to proceed in the contest as to the > er scats of the representatives. of Mr. Sackett identified the book ho had > er brought with him as the record of recent to meetings of the Hoard of County Commis elmi sioners. Mr. Smyth wanted to Introduce mi that portion covering pages 701 to 711 in ity clusive , relating to the approval by the is , board of the Judges and clerks of election. ut. The next hour was consumed in a wrangle over the introduction of evidence , Judge Ulair contending that the testimony should bo taken separately in the senatorial and 'an ' representative contests and before separate ito notarius.

The lists submitted by the 'in- councllmcn h'o understood to have been 'inof selected by delegations from the vailous wards. opt Mr. Smyth then wanted to know about the the judges and dei ks personally and the mayor rrl- couldn't toll a thing about it without con sulting papers on lllo la his oftlee , and a vlll recess of half an hour was declared to give lay him time to go and got them. When ho returned 1m was accompanied by ilk ! his clerk , and thu next hour was spent in an 10H' attempt to ascertain who had recommended illlu thu appointment of various Individuals.

Ono of llic DcnI/ons of tlio Itimit District Viciously Assaulted. Last evening about 8 o'clock a man en tered a resort at 100 South Ninth street , kept by Bertha Buerdain , and robbed her of about $500 worth of diamonds. The thief entered the front door and looked it behind him. IIo then grabbed the woman , who was alone , choked her , threw heron a lounge and tore a diamond necklace from her throat , a bracelet from her arm and escaped through the rear door. The woman made a hard light for her jewels and bit a couple of the robber's lin gers nearly off. When the police arrived the woman lay on the floor In a fainting con dition. Blood stains covered the front of the silk gown and her face and mouth were covered with blood. The struggle evidently was a hard one. Owing to the woman's inability to under stand or speak English It was a hard matter for the police to obtain much ot a description of the thief.

The Thomson-Houston people assert they are fulfilling their con tract and furnishing the required 2,000-cuadlo power lights. Inspector Gilbert .says In his opinion the company Is not furnishing the city with a light that would test more than ( WO-candlo power , but cannot prove the statement as there is no way of making the test. Mr. Gilbert's Idea Is to have each circuit con structed with a loop , and then run the loop into thu lire and police station where a test can be made at any timo. Councilman Jacobsin , who voted to sustain Mayor Bcmis' veto of the light company's claim , throws out sonw very broad hints that there was an organised ollort to railroad thtf bill and that somebody was interested.
