LENTEN LEVITY SEVERELY FROWNED UPON
< llrl Who Would Dnnco After Ilelng Wnrnci
Arc Now \VoniliirliiK Wlmt the Good
DuinltilaVtlt lu at the Mvct-
Ing Toinorroiv. .
Tlicre nro a good many people who are
Watching with not a little Interest a conical
that IB Just now going on between Hector
n. J. nabcock of St. rani's church and the
youtiK ladles of his congregation. As every
one knows , thla Is the Lenten season , li
which all who have not been good during
the year arc supposed to malic up for losi
tlmo by being uncommonly good. Halls
parties and social functions generally arc
tabooed , and the fair maidens glvo thorn-
selves up to religious meditation and making
plans and specifications for Easter bonnets.
Not long ago. however , the quietude ol
Lent was disturbed by. a party at the home
of ono of the young ladles , to which quite a
number of the young people of the church
wcro Invited. It was a rather Informal and
decidedly gay aff lr , and although the fnlr
ones do not tell all they know , It Is com
monly reported that more than one fantastic
too was tripped. Ilev. Mr. Dabcock hoard
of the affair and last Sunday ho astounded
some of his youthful hearers by making a
public allusion to their slnfulneas In thus
depriving themselves of the spiritual bene
fits which Lent Is supposed to bring the
devotees at the church. He even went so
far as to announce that a repetition of the
offense would result In the offender receiv
ing her letter from the church. This
threat might reasonably bo expected to have
the desired effect , but It did not.
Last Thursday night a party was given
by several young society men of the city
and of all the young ladles of St. Paul's
church who were so fortunate as to receive
Invitations there were only two who feared
the rector's threat enough to deny them
selves the pleasure of an evening's dancing
while there wore as many as a dozen who
went and enjoyed the festivities of the
evening , although with quaking hearts. The
question that Is now agitating the minds ol
the fair ones Is , how much of the rector's
threat was really and truly meant ? Mr ,
Habcock Is not commonly considered a man
given to "bluffing , " least of all In the pttlplt ,
and there are some girls who will not bo
surprised at receiving their walking papers
In the near future.
HUNT ANI ) KVANS.
Candidates for School Hoard Selected After
u Stormy Coiucntlcm.
There were sand burs In the road , and the
people who held the nonpartlsan convention
last evening were nil barefooted. Most ol
them were democrats. The superior court
room at the county court house was well
filled when the meeting was called to order
by Lucius Wells , who summohed W. II.
Ware to act as chairman. F. II. Evans was
chosen secretary. A motion was made to
appoint a committee of six to select candi
dates , and to have the committee composed
of three republicans and three democrats.
It was right at this point that John Allies
caused a commotion by voting , with a lot of
his friends , against this proposition , nnd
then Jumping up and shouting : "Mr. Chair
man , I'm ono of those who said no ; there are
a good many of us Independents hero , and
wo want to bo represented. " A division of
the house was called for , and the motion was
found carried by a vote of C5 to 28.
After ono and another had refused to serve
on the committee , six men were found who
were willing to serve , nnd their names were
as follows : Oscar Keeline , John I'usey and
G. H. Jackson , republicans , and -W. H.
Thomas , U. H. White and M. P. Rohrcr ,
democrats. While the committee was out
preparing Us report some ono called for John
Allies. That gentleman had been refused
recognition by the chair when he made his
former outburst , and his collar had become
warm almost to Incandescence. "Gentle
men , " he said , "I will not talk unless your
chairman requests It. " And then ho pro
ceeded to talk. "Mr. Chairman , I wonder If
you know there are any populists In this city.
This Is a citizens' meeting and we populists
don't llko to be slapped In the face In thla
way. " Ho then turned to the audience
and commenced to roast Mr. Ware , who ac
cepted his anto-mortom cremation In a
truly Christian spirit. He exhorted the
members of the convention not to give over
tholrpublic affairs Into the hands of such
politicians as Ware. By thla tlmo the
audience had become uproarious and com
menced to yell. For several minutes Allies
tried to talk , but whenever he would start anew
now sentence the audience would start anew
now yell. He finally gave It up as a bad
Job and went through a highly edifying
pantomime , performance which lasted several
minutes. Ho then strode from the hall
amid the yells of the convention.
Quiet having been restored , a motion was
made by Emll Schurz that a committee con.
slating of two democrats , two republicans
and a populist bo appolnted to draw up a
sot of resolutions. The motion was carried ,
and the committee consisted of O. P. Wlck >
ham , I. 'F. Ilendrlcks , W. A. Wood , Peter
Smith and L. Klnnchan.
The committee on candidates reported ,
recommending John T. Oliver and F. H.
Evans , S. H. Wndsworth moved to substi
tute the name of J. F. Hunt of the Sixth
ward for that of Oliver , because there were
already three members of the board from
the Third ward. The amendment was car
ried by a vote of 68 to JO , nnd Mr. Hunt
signified his willingness to serve If elected.
The committee on resolutions then re
ported , the majority report hlmply declaring
In favor of a nonpartlsan board nnd strict
economy In the expenditure of public funds.
Mr. Klnnehan presented a minority re-port
of the resolutions which wcro passed at the
populist convention the night before. Am
brose Durko moved that the minority report
bo adopted , but the attempt to railroad It
through was defeated , It. N. Whlttlesey and
Lucius Wells denouncing several of thp
planks as misrepresenting the facts , par.
tlcularly these with reference to the High
school cadets and the frequent changing of
text books. The report was taken up by
sections , and after nearly all of It had been
weeded out what was left was adopted In the
following form :
Wo licllnvo tbnt the Intelligence of the
people Is the safeguard of our countrv nnd
thoieforo fnvor the levy of p. sufficient
tax to maintain the public schools In such
a manner as to produce the greatest pos-
slblo good to the people.
Wo believe that In times of great business
depression nnd gpnerol distress among the
middle nnd poorer clnrscs the taxes should
bo tcdnced to the minimum consistent with
the public good.
Wo are In fnvor of the treasurer of the
sohonl bonrd advertising for bids from the
different banks for the deposit of school
funds , such Interest to be turned Into the
school ticnBury.
AH our school buildings nro nil detached
properly and therefore the danger from tire
so small , wo rro In favor of the flls-
trlct carrying Its own risks , thereby saving
[ ho largo hums of money paid out annually
to llro Insurance companies.
It the proposition to soil the present Hltth
school property should carry then the
> o.ml of school directors shall submit to
: lie people the price to bo paid for It , to
: io voted on us to whether or not we will
take the price offered ,
The paragraphs opposing the levying of
more taxes than were nccesary , reducing
teachers' salaries , denouncing the superin
tendent for changing text books , opposing
.ho erection of n High school 'and other
buildings and the selection of teachers by
reason of ability , favoring the erection of n
school house on Courtland beach , and de
nouncing the High school cadets wcro
stricken out. The majority report was also
adopted.

TECUMSEH , Neb. , March 0. ( Special to
The Bee. ) At the time of the failure of
the bank of Russell & Holmes In this city
some two years ago , County Treasurer D.
II. Bush had on deposit In that Institution
about $7,000 of Johnson county's money.
Before retiring from the office , and at his
final settlement with the commissioners
January 1 , Mr. Bush presented In settlement
the certificates of deposit on the collapsed
bank for said amount. They were deemed
worthless by the commissioners and the
county attorney wasjnstructed to take steps
toward the collection of the amount from
Bush or his bondsmen , and as the former
Is not worth the amount the loss threatened
to fall on the latter. Friends of the un
fortunate ox-treasurer and his bondsmen
came to their relief this week , however ,
and a petition to the Board of
County Commissioners , asking that Mr.
Bush nnd his bondsmen be exonerated from
said liability and that the loss fall upon the
county has been promiscuously circulated
over the county and the names of hundreds
of voters attached to It.The petition did
not meet general approval , however , and
scarcely had It suggested Itself until ono In
remonstrance was being circulated by poli
tical enemies of the gentlemen In question.
The parties advancing the last petition ,
though aware that Mr. Bush and his sureties
were the victims of unfortunate clrcum-
statfcss , were of the opinion thaUthey should
flrln and bear It. And now a lively
war wages with the circulators and sup
porters of the opposing petitions.

Two children , grandchildren of Mrs. I.

The family physician bad them both dressed

Into a peaceful sleep. Mrs. Sklnklo says
although both were badly burned , yet after
the application of the compound they suf

In three weeks time were entirely healed ,
with scarce a mark remaining. I am an
old nurse of many yearn experience , but I
never saw nny thing to compare with
Mecca Compound for burns , nor In fact for
cuts and surface wounds of nny kind. Ona
bad case of a cut becoming poisoned und
putrid was permanently ctticd by a few ap
