The ease of K .1. Day against the Union
De-pot company is set for heariiif ? In district
court this morning , it is ofi-onsidoralile into -
to rest to Mipjmlillc , since the public seems
never tc lose interest in anj tiling connected ,
bowcn-r rfunctely , with the graveyard of
burled hopes , known as thn union depot
ite , Tills suit was tried some time ntio , the
plaintiff eliiimlni ; W.liOO for four lots In Kld-
dlo's siibdiilaum which the Union
Depot company had bought , of him ,
but hnil never Paid for. Thu company
refused to pay , claiming that tlio trustees ,
one of whom was attorney for the Union
Pacific Hallway company , had taken advan
tage of Ills connection with both concerns
and secured the purchase of the lots by the
depot company as a means of .settling a dam
age suit which was then pending against the
Union Pacific. Fraud and collusion was
alleged , but In spite of everything Day got a
Judgment which with interest and costs
amounts now to SUHX ) .
The depot company now wants a new trial
and proposes to reopen the case from the
ground up. The motion will bo probably
arguutl this morning , and a hot contest is
looked for by both side * .

unanimous.
The president Introduced Miss Mary A.

Temperance union state superintendent
of scicntillo tomperaneo instruction
for Nebraska , who read a paper on "Hered

pervade all work , whether in one line or
another. Tlio doctor should not seek simply
to cure John Smith of fever , hut he should
so build up the constitution of the Smith
family that future generations should bo
stronger and better than their aneesters.
Ho should look ahead not limit his thought
to the present and immediate result. The
lawyer should not seek simply to settle the
case in hand , but to establish justice and
equity on a firmer basis so the principles
which the Improved Stock Breeders associa
tion on discovering and workingout should be
applied to the human race. Scientific breed
ing will not cease with the lower animals ; it
will , as it extends its beneficent Influence ,
advance the race , until men and women shall

How to Itiilso Slii'vp ,
Sam A. Barker of Silver Creek , related his
early experience in feeding sheep , which was
listened to with marked interest. Ho said
ho came to Nebraska fourteen years ago to
raise sheep , but found at that time the state
was not a good producing ono , and he has
since confined his attention to feeding. In
his pens the slice ] ) are so closely con lined
that they touch each other. They must bo
kept quiet. Ho declares that ho has as good
mutton as is produced in England , He feeds
all they can eat and no more ; has powdered
rock salt from Kansas before them all the
time , waters them twice a day , feeds them
whc.it screenings and corn , uses plenty of
bedding and stints on nothing but hay. Each
sheep eats about four and one-half bushels of
screenings and corn. He recommends long
feeding and thinks they weigh better and
bring more money. Mrs. A. M. Edwards read
a very able and interesting paper entitled "A
Woman's Effort , " which was also highly
appreciated by all.
At the afternoon session Henry Wallace
read a paper on "Forage Plants" and Is'iac
Johnson one on "Pure Bred Cattle. " II. C.

"Incog1. " is a very clever farce , seen for the
first time in Omaha at the Hoyd last oven-
Ing. It Is the work of Mrs. Homualdo
k
Pacheco , wife of California's llrst nativ.-
born congressman and governor , and line
loen received with unvarying favor wher
ever presented during this and lust seasons.
Us title Is the weakest line in It. Its theme
Is old us story , but it has been
treated with u freshness . that Is
eminently pleasing , and quick action
accompanies crisp dialogue. Lust evening's
audience laughed consumedly throughout its
three acts and manifested every symptom of
delighted appreciation. But then ' 'Incog'1
had the benefit of a highly artistic presen
tation ; even the farce comedian's methods
have degrees of excellence that maybe
bo graded ns artistic or other
wise. The farce is the medium of
Mr. Charles Dickson's stellar debut in
Omaha. Theater goers have grateful mem
ories of his Juvenile work in several dramas ,
and it can be said at once that his
Tom Stanhope In "Incog. " fully
justifies him In assuming management
and the status of stellar dignity. These
quite latter days are seeing the renaissance
of the light comedian , and Mr. Dickson
ranks with the four or live really artistic
light comedians of the American stage today.
His training for his work was of tlio best
and corning days and experience will further
perfect Ills work. His manner is easy and
suave , without swagger or strain , and at all
times , oven when convulsing the house , he Is
ever gentlemanly and quietly effective.
CjTho company supporting Mr. Uickson isnn
excellent one ; every member of it has a
fairly "fat" part , and they play together
with admirable cffert. Mr. Ed .1. Connelly
Is quite successful in his presentation of a-
characterful old genorul , Mr. Gustavo
Yorke gives a painstiiking study of a Ger
man doctor , with a make-up that with slight
modification would be a counterfeit present
ment of Henrik Illst'n , never missing a
point in speech or action. Miss Lilian Burk-

gram to TUB DEB ] In Judpo Van U'agencn's
court tills morning an application was made
by Receiver Hlack ot the Leeds company to
issue receiver's certificates , and February
"I was set us the day for hearing the argu
ments on the application.
Hecelvcr Dlnck claims that flic company
put up $ l.r > r-,003 worth of notes for collateral
with various banks that arc worth 100 cents
j on the dollar , and secured on these loans
1 aggregating about one-third their actual
1value. , . On most of these loans the com-
i pany is now in default. According to
agreement the notes could be sold when the
| ; loans arc in default at cither private or pub-
j lie bale to satisfy the claims. The receiver
I claims that the eastern stockholders in the
I ' company are now taking up these claims and
I securing possession of the notes for much
less than their actual value , to carry out the
plan of wreckage charged several weeks ago.
If he can secure the issuance of receiver's
certificates , they will constitute a llrst lion
on the Leeds company's property and he will
be able to raise money on them to take up
the notes deposited for collection by paying
the loans , and thus save to the creditors a
large porttJh of the assets of the company.
He is backed In his position by the Sionx
City , Chicago and other western stock
holders , who claim his success will bring the
company out of its trouble , and is opposed by
the persons now purchasing the notes.
