The irlests who tire asking for the transfer of llshop Bonaeum to Chuyeimo nro Father Walsh of this city , Father Corbctt of Pal- nyra ami Father Crowley of Tecumseh. Father Walsh was removed two years ago localise of the statement made to the bishop by Mrs. Mary Sheedy , against whom Walsh had testllied at the inquest over the dead body of her husband , whoso murder she was charged with. Mrs. Sheedy stated to the bishop that Father Walsh had made serious reflections against his ( the bishop's ) morality , and without ceremony or giving the father a chance to lefond himself , ho was suspended for flvo years. Father Crowlcy's complaint is understood to bo that the bishop had disregarded an order from Homo to reinstatehim after the bishop's suspension had boon carried to tlio higher tribunal. Father Corbett was charged with some ecclesiastical irregular ity , said to bo a too great liking on his part to stay up with the boys. On his appeal the proceeding was quashed and the charge not sustained. Heccntly the trouble between the two broke outagaln , and FatherCorbott was notified that the bishop would take testi mony at Palmyra on the charges prepared against him , but as ho wai not served with a copy of the charges ho did not appear. The bishop did , and it transpired that tlio charges were one that he cniragcd in a light on election day ut Palmyra , and the other for using insulting language to the bishop. Some testimony was taken on the former charge , but the latter was not entered upon very fully. Thu Insult to the bishop happened some eight months ago. The bishop was on a visit to the Palmyra church , and in his ad dress to the congregation spoke of the poor condition of the parish , and found fault t with nearly everything that Father Corbett had dono. It is .said that at this juncture Father Corbott stepped forward and gave the lie indirectly to the bishop , and wound up by saying : "Tho bishop has come hero to make trouble between you and me. Now let us offer up a prayer that he will fail in his design. " Tho'people all knelt , with the bishop alone standing. He , too , knelt after all had gotten down on their knees. At a recent meeting of the priests hero the trouble was called up again , and there were some very fiery passages between the bishop , a reverend father from York and Father Corbett , in which the York clergyman called the one from Palmyra a very uncomplimentary name. None of the priests hero will discuss the matter. District Court Ne\va. Judge Hall and a Jury are engaged today in hearing the case of Platt Bayless against the city. Bayless is a farmer , and one night lust March lie drove into an open ditch at Seventh and South streets , and spring scat landed on top of Ills head , denting it so- vcrcly. and ho claims SIOOQO for the porma ncnt Injuries inflicted. L. A. McCundless objects to paying W. S. Fletcher $10,000 for the four hours incarcer ation ho didn't enjoy in November last. Mc- Candlcss says ho didn't arrest Fletcher , but that Marshal Adamsan oiilcer of the United States , did , and turned him over to him. Ho claims that Fletcher deserves to bq locked up anyhow , that ho was a railroad grader who had come into Yankee Hill precinct to live while the road was being built , and had no right to vote , nnd was arrested when ho tried to vote. This is u relic of tlio scrap over whether Uook Island graders should bo allowed to vote for Bryan last fall.

WATER'S ' VIVIFYING POWERS Electric Light Turned on for the Sun down Olub , NEBRASKA'S ' ARID LAND TO DE A GARDEN MurvuloiM Triiinfor unit Ion to Ito Wrought by Irrigation i\lilliltlon : tit Cooking by Klertrlrltyn I'linilllnr .sight In Omitlm'it future. Water power , irrigation ntul electric conkIng - Ing were the topics discussed by the Sun down club last night. The banquet tables at the Mercer hotel were surrounded uy nearly 100 of the wide awake members of thu club , nnd when the refreshments in both liquid and solid form had been disposed of the club listened to seven oral very Interesting addresses by gentlemen from abroad. Ex-.liulgo Joseph H. Clarkson presided , and , after stating that the subjects for dlselTt cusslon would bo supplementary to the ad- dross of Dr. George L. Miller upon the great Platte river canal scheme at the preceding meeting , ho Introduced Mr. Cleorgo K. Hunt of Cheyenne , who is actively Interested in the construction of several largo Irrigation ditches. Mr. Hunt spoke at some length and very entertainingly upon the great undeveloped resources of tlio country between the Hookies nnd the Missouri river , which might bo reclaimed and made remarkably productive. The arid belt , ho slid , includes an area of over l" > ( ) , uo ; ) square miles , or nearly one-third of the entire territory of the United States. Adjoining this distinctively nrid region there lay a long area of land that was partially arid. Over this area , embrac ing western fucbr.iska , there was almost suf- Hcent rainfall to insure n full crop 1C the water could bo held in reservoirs and prop erly distributed. llcdcmptlon tor Arid I.nniU. Mr. Hunt estimated that with a proper system of irrigation : ioO,0)0,000 ( ) acres of arid land might bo made productive. Tlio nrid region ; would become oven more productive than ; the land watered by rain , because the crops would never bo retarded by cold , wet weather. The farmer could let the water in upon his crop at exactly the proper time and Indo exactly the right amount. The speaker held that with the thorough development of the water supply for irriga tion purposes the United States could riro- duce enough food to supply the entire world. A farmer could raise as much upon twenty acres : by means of irrigation as ho could upon 101 without irrigation. Irrigated farms rarely embraced moro than eighty acres , and those who took charge of even less than that succeeded . better. IIo hail seen land that was worth but § ( i per acre before Irrigated producing nn annual crop worth 51,000 per acre. True , this was in California , and might not bo considered a fair comparison , but it was a common tiling to see irrigated land produce from four to six times as much as that which needed no irrigation. One great ben- cllt to be derived from irrigation was the fact that farmers would bo enabled to live close together , thus overcoming tlio isola tion and loneliness that formed ono of the chief objections of rural life. In closing , Mr. Hunt spread a beautiful picture of coming prosperity for all this great western country before the mental vision of those present. Ho bolinved that the once arid plains of thcso central western states would yet become the very center of population and political power , the garden spot of the world. The address was heart ily applauded. Value of u Wntor I'oivor. Tlio next speaker was Mr. O. W. Crawford of Gothenburg , a man who has been the mainspring In the enterprise that con structed a canal at Gothenburg nnd built a factory there which employs nearly " 00 men. Ho discussed in an eloquent and practical manner the advantages of the canal scheme. Ho said that they had only built a little ditch twelve miles long , but it had given them an abundance of power. They were going to enlarge the ditch and get more power. The Gothenburr ; canal has a fall at its mouth of sixty feot. Mr. Crawford believed that Gothenburg would become n largo manufacturing town simply through the ad vantages gained by this canal. If Gothen burg could afford to build a canal , surely it would pay Omaha to do the same. He spoke of the wonderful power that had been do ] vclopcd at Niagara falls , and said the same opixn-tunltics lay within the reach of Omaha ) Mr. R. B. Howeli made a very neat and effective address upon the ancient methods of securing water power and irrigation. Dr. S. D. Mercer was called out and offered some practical and effective remarks , which were received with much favor. Then the subtlu fluid from which we secure light and heat and power came in for its share of discussion. Wo do not fully know the source Nor comprehend the vast domain Of what wo call electric fon'o , Great nature's nerves of lightning chain. But the members of the Sundown club learned several now and valuable tilings about tlio uses to which electricity may bo applied. The attention of the club was di rected to the work of an electric cooking apparatus stationed near the center of the dining room in full view of all present. The electro-bakery was manipulated by Mr. .T. M. Hill. Cooklni ; by Ulectrlclty. Stretching along ono end of the dining room upon a banner were tlio following words calculated to be applied to the electric cooking apparatus : "This is the culinary implement that will bo used in the homes of Omaha upon the completion of the great Platte river canal. " Mr. S. L. tt iley introduced Mr. Hill In a few neat and appropriate remarks. The electric oven exhibited was about eighteen inches square. It was a wooden box lined on tlio inside with asbestos and tin. A cur rent of lifty volts was employed in doing the cooking. It passed into the oven on a wire and wound through resisting wires in tlio top and bottom , producing heat enough in forty- five minutes to cook a good sized turkey thoroughly. The plan is to keep the oven tightly closed for forty-live minutes while the current is turned on and then permit the accumulated heat to do the work slowly and thoroughly. By that time the heat should bo sufficient to cook the fowl in two hours. With the same current passing through small flat stoves cakes were cooked beauti fully , water was brought to the boiling point , Hat irons were heated and curling irons ere prepared for the fctnlnino toilet. The cooking machine was thoroughly ex plained , and the members of the elub went homo to dream of trying lawsuits , selling goods , writing up life insurance and pulling political wires by electricity. v.s UUnstroufl Irmpoctiun nf n ( 'oul Mine by n I'arty of Mlrtprt , COSNEI.LSVILI.B , Pa. , March 18.

The lawyers of the Douglas county bar liavo put thelt shoulders to the wheel In nn effort to secure the passage of the bill now adbof the legislature , providing for tlio ap pointment of a commission to revise and modify the laws of the state Yesterday , without any previous notice. ii couple of hundred of the members of tlio bar met In Judge Scott's court room , where ifter some preliminary mat'crs ) nd been disposed of the following resolution was tin- ininiously adopted : lc 1 ! nlved , That It Is tinunanlimnH senti ment of the mi'iiilior- thu liiirof Douglas county that house roll-HI , looking to Hit-ap pointment nf a rommlltoo to MVUIV tliu revis ' ion of tin1 lawof the slate , should pass and 'i'omo a law ; and be It further Jr-iohod.

Smyth bu ap- liolnti'd a comiulltoii to piv > u > iit this irsnlntlon to tlio legislative commlttoo now having tlu > bill In charge. Judge Scott has written to the Douglas county members explaining why such a law should be enacted. Ho says that during the past each successive legislature has enacted laws and that in many instances tlio new law fails to repeal tlio old. There tire- cases where the law Is so vague and indcllnite that It is impossible to construe tlio true moaning of what is intended. By a careful codification of the laws the judge Is of the opinion that a great many conflicting features can bo eliminated. UISTIUUT COUHT. 1'nrty Wtill Ulipum Alli-gcil Dl.iinnm ! Thlof nn Trliil.
